the Nexus is made for a touch interface and has a much more robust and mature environment for a portable device
How does it compare to the other display?
Being my first tablet (I do not even use a smartphone) and a lifelong user of desktop computers, I was expecting a limited, clunky, and slow device. I was wrong, the tablet worked right out of the box without issues. WiFi only required the router password before connecting for the first time.  The performance is great, it has plenty of storage, the touch screen is very responsive, the interface is very easy to learn, and the image / text quality is superb. Battery life is great, even with WiFi, Bluetooth, and apps running.  I already tested the Bluetooth and USB connectivity (using an OTG adapter) with some industrial sensors and it works great. The tablet is highly configurable and extendable through custom apps.The Google play store has most if not all the apps you will ever want, and if it does not have it, you can write your own with several free developing environments available for android.I was looking at a comparable Windows 8 tablet but the Nexus is made for a touch interface and has a much more robust and mature environment for a portable device.
