Tablet recommendations
 
Im looking to buy a new tablet. My main focus is graphics, my main use for it will be watching movies and anime, so im really looking for something that looks good. if it could have 32 GB or more of space would be appreciated, I have about 2,500$ to spend.

Thoughts? Recommendations?

I didn't say I would, that's just my budget. It was money from a BestBuy raffle that my school held, and a tablet is what I'm looking for, so yeah.

Get a gaming computer rather than a Tablet, If you already have a gaming computer I suggest you too upgrade it a bit, And donate a few bucks to charity.

With that money get a surface pro 3 i7 128gb model. It's easily the best tablet around. Has amazing build quality. It's both a tablet and a computer, runs full windows 8.1 (and you can upgrade to Windows 10 for free).

Take my advice I have been studying this for months.

I ended up buying an ipad air 2 BUTTTTTT

Only cause I didn't have a lot of money to spend.

You should probably wait a few months, since there is rumor that an ipad PRO will be released this year.

If you want one right now, with your money I would get the surface pro 3.

Don't bother with the surface 3 (the small version of pro), because it has watered down hardware.

If you are looking for a gaming tablet, get the nVidia Shield

Pros and Cons

Microsoft Surface Pro 3
It's a computer, and a tablet, so you don't have to buy a pc later on
Very portable
Bigger screen than the other tablets
Supports Adblock

Apple Ipad Air 2
Fastest tablet when compared to android tablets (IOS tablet)
More companies add apps to ios, since it's only one brand
The resolution isn't that great for crunchyroll, since crunchyroll only goes up to 1080p
With the next ios update you can have split-screen, but only certain apps
Doesn't support adblock
Has an anti-reflective coating on the display (reduced sun/light glare)


nVidia Shield Tablet
A Power house gaming tablet
Supports 4k resolution
Comes with an hdmi port so you can hook it to a 4k tv/monitor
Uses the "Shield app" that has a ton of cool games
You can stream to twitch with it's integrated camera + features
You can stream games from your pc, and run on tablet
Tablet has NVIDIA Tegra K1 192 core Kepler GPU
Controller requires a separate purchase (recommended for gaming)
Baterry life isn't that amazing, but apparently Android 5.0 Lollipop helps it a bit, plus when you game you can just have it plugged in

In my opinion, I would just wait for the surface pro 4 to come out. The release date is supposedly coming soon, perhaps as soon as October.

I have a Nexus 5 and can't recommend it. Won't be buying another one either.
