I feel like you've already made your choice, but I'll list the pros for the infinity over the ipad for me. With the keyboard dock you get a great increase in productivity (writing papers, general messaging) along with an increase in battery live. Let's not forget the benefits of the full sized USB port which lets you connect a 2 TB hard drive, a USB mouse or keyboard, or a PS3 or XBOX 360 controller for gaming. The iPad 3 can't do any of those. Let's also not forget the storage flexibility you get from a microSD and full sized SD slot. In the future we'll be able to dual boot Android, ubuntu and probably windows 8 when that comes out due to the unlocked bootloader. The iPad 3 is stuck on whatever apple allows, and they have a penchant for removing flagship features from their OS to drive new hardware sales. Finally although the jailbreaking community is nice, I feel the Android Dev community on Rootzwiki and XDA far outweigh that. You're going to be missing out on some glorious hackery and development. Anyway a lot of the tablet apps that I paid for on my ipad 2 generally have free counterparts on Android that do more due to the greater system level access. I suggest playing with one in Best Buy and deciding for yourself ;)

Hasn't this subject been discussed at nausium elswhere. . . .

Mobile Tech review did a great head to head comparison:

http://www.mobiletechreview.com/tablets/Asus-Transformer-Pad-Infinity-TF700.htm

Quite honestly, me being a techy that likes to tweak and control things would never buy an Ipad (I do have an ipod touch though, which I got prior to getting going on Android), but I have also come to the relaization that some people don't know much about tech, don't need all the flexibility and power, and just want it to work should go the Apple route. I have stopped a long time ago trying to argue which one's better, especially since I end up doing tech support for them if I tell them to go Android. I plead the 5th if its Apple.

16:10 is inferior to 4:3 Holy **** :eek:

Now I see why this thread was created
[Asus Transformer TF700] uwotm8:
16:10 is far superior in terms of movies and gaming. But for overall tablet use, it's much better. Can you find printer paper in 16:10 dimensions? It just makes its weird. Too wide and too short. 16:10 is very good for movies since it's closer to cinema aspect ratios of 2.35:1
[Asus Transformer TF700] guitar1969:
I actually see some merit to the 4:3 argument for ebook reading, but not movie viewing or web pages so again it depends on your main use The comparison video above does discuss this at length too.

Never thought of it much but because of the aspect ratio differences I am not sure the Ipad 3 retna display is actully any higher vertical resolution(when in landscape) than the TF700 since it is a different screen aspect. Looking at the 2 side by side in the comparison, the Ipad 3 aspect looks odd to me, maybe because everything else is going widescreen.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ilostmypistons:
LOL Go away

I'm gonna go set my 60" HDTV to 4:3 WTF

Nevermind, too late. OS war thread? OS war thread.

Also, considering OP has already gotten an ipad, I'd say that its not a good deal to sell it. You've already wasted money, don't want to waste any more.

16:10 is god tier for everything, trust me, I've tried 4:3 and it's not good for anything. Its like I'm back in 1997.
[Asus Transformer TF700] armanisafarai:
I had the ipad 3 for 2 months. After the first week i was sick of it. I hate ios and its limited features. I jailbreaked it so i could change the damn theme, and i installed maybe 5 tweaks and the ipad became slow as ****. My first and last ipad or any apple products. Seriously for those who say ipad has a better build quality, i just have to laugh at you. After one week the bottom part burned because i was playing games for 30 minutes. I think it was because of smart cover since the ipad 3 becomes so hot when you play (little better after update came out, but too late). But both ipad 3 and smart cover are made by apple and lol they couldnt even make that right. Anyways, if you like ios and its limited features, then buy ipad. If you want awesomeness, buy Infinity.

Oh wait, you were being serious? I thought you were joking. In any case, enjoy those black bars and terrible upscaling in videos. I like my tablets to be multifunctional and not just dedicated to internet browsing. Videos, games, photos, code, everything looks better in 16:10. Why do you think they stopped making 4:3 monitors or laptops?

Also, what do you mean by avi?
[Asus Transformer TF700] ilostmypistons:
The guy has to be getting paid by Apple to post stupid stuff like this. I knew we where dealing with troll after his second ridiculous post. Oh wait" have you ever seen 16:10 paper" WTF! I think he needs to head over to some iSheep forums where they are gullible ;)

[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
The funny thing is that the only thing coming up in m mind when he ran that idiotic comment on 16:10 printing not being available was "but... I've never seen a 4:3 format printer either..." -- hahaha! As far as the topic goes (yes, go ahead and feed the trolls): I love the TF700 with all its quirks and wouldn't even think of swapping in out for an iPad3. Ever. The resolution gain is unnoticeable in real life, the brightness loss is, as are the storage options you lose and the relative openness of the exosystem. All this has been pointed out earlier in this thread in a far more succinct way than I could ever accomplish, so I'll leave it at this.

[Asus Transformer TF700] gottahavit:
There's a real simple formula, if you even consider an ipad then you want an ipad. If the first time you see an ipad you go "WTF", "how do I...?", "and how do i...", then you want an android tablet. The infinity is a tablet, the ipad is..... well it's an ipad. You either want one or the other.
[Asus Transformer TF700] guitar1969:
Well the IPAD is designed off of a notepad, so it should be the shape of paper, if that's all they want. And the sheep say "How revolutionary . . . "

I all seriousness, I would never consider an IPAD except for the fact that Android continues to ignore the audio latency (audio delay) issues for music use/production. Unfortunately that is why Apple owns that market and I am noticing how my guitar and music magazines have plethora of hardware/software to work with the Ipad and touch devices and its growing every month - becoming a huge market. I thought Jellybean would finally address it, but not yet. I believe the latency has dropped a bit with JB, but still is too much for practical use in music. I can only hope.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Keion:
That didn't happen to me. I have an iPad, and it was the most revolutionary thing in the world. At least, until I bought my first android. So that really doesn't apply.
[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
My girlfriend got an iPad2 because it was "on sale"... ::sigh:: but in any case, I noticed via perusing the Apple store that there was not a whole lot in the way of Office provisions. Sure there were a few kinda/sortas but nothing like the suites that we have available. Were I in college, I would probably want something with a little some-something that I could check over my presentations or report prior to submitting them. With an iPad... heh, well... better bring a laptop.

Though logitech does make a really sweet keyboard/cover for iPads. Won't lie that they were way nice. But still, like Apple, looks and works real good, costs more than it should, but no extra functionalities beyond the basics.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Indurus:
It's a question of religion. The Infinity has a great display (equal to the iPad 3) and the freedom and connectivity (USB Ports, HDMI, SD slot, microSD aso...) of android. With the iPad you get the well known closed system, but the smoothness and speed of iOS

[Asus Transformer TF700] Chief Geek:
Funniest **** all day...
[Asus Transformer TF700] GernBlanston:
Is the idea that some people might like 4:3 better than 16:10 so outlandish? It IS nicer for web browsing and for most formatted documents, and needless to say for apps that are formatted for it. That, and the tf700 screen is NOT the equal of the ipad in terms of color accuracy, white balance and gamma.

There are plenty of reasons one might choose an infinity over an ipad (I did)...but the reverse is also true, for some.

Not a bad deal.

[HTC One X] obsydian:
Guys some help, I got a replacement handset but kept it stock as I really want to use two APPs that check for either Superuser (Good for Enterprise)or is the device is rooted (Barclays Mobile Banking).

I have followed a few how to's on the web, but none have worked, any suggestions ?

I used to do this with an old Gingerbread handset, i.e. Custome ROM, do my mods, UNROOT (Ginger Unroot), but Barclays App would not work.

What I want is a custom ROM that I can unroot fully and use the apps mentioned above.

Using the method below as an example Step 10 where it says it should say RELOCKED, my HOX still says LOCKED.

Step 1. Download ES File Explorer app from the Play Store and run the app.

Step 2. Choose Menu->Settings.

Step 3. Make sure “Root Explorer” and “Mount File System” are checked ON.

Step 4. Choose “Favorites” then hit “/”.

Step 5. Browse to /system/bin/ and /system/xbin/ directories and erase any files named “su” if they exist. (they should exist in both or just in one of the directories.)

Step 6. Next, go into /system/app/ directory and erase Superuser.apk.

Doing Step 5 and Step 6 completely removes root and Superuser from your phone. We are almost done but you have to re-install stock recovery so go to Step 7.

Step 7. Hold down Volume Down and Power button together for about 10 seconds until you are in bootloader mode. Choose “FASTBOOT” and hit Power button and connect your HTC One X to your computer via micro-USB cable.

Step 8. Download OneXUnroot.zip and unzip to your Downloads folder.

Download OneXUnroot.zip

Open up a command prompt for Windows or terminal for Mac/Linux and type:

cd Downloads

cd OneXUnroot

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Step 9. Next, you will probably want to do a factory reset in stock recovery to clear all your personal settings and apps. You can stop here though if you are not returning your phone to store.

Hold down Volume Down and Power button together for about 20 seconds.

Step 10. Choose “RECOVERY” and hit the Power button. You should also noticed that your HTC One X has been “RELOCKED”.

Step 11. Once you get a screen like below, hit the Volume Up and Power button together until you see blue menus, which is the stock recovery.

Step 12. Choose “Wipe data/factory reset”.

Step 13. Choose “Yes”. When it’s done, simply reboot.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cased3448:
FIrst post, looooong time lurker here. Thanks to all the devs who continue working on our tab.

There is just ONE thing that would make this tab the best. Currently im a typing this on my bluetooth keyboard /mouse with the tab hooked up to my 24in hd monitor via hdmi. I hate that it hdmi mirrors when I'm using it for non-processor intensive tasks at 720p (like what I am doing now) and can playback 1080p movies on the monitor without a hitch...

I would pay GOOD money for a dev to trick the tab into outputing the high res.format permanetly whenever the tab is connected via hdmi. I dont really care about hdmi mirroring since Id like to use the hdmi as a total laptop replacement (which it is now very close thanks to Task650 and his ICS rom). Is there any way to do this??? If it requires money i can provide it.. Lol but not more than $10 for an app that can do it. I do not think its a hardware limitation at all because its capable of outputing 1080p video, the tab and other android tablet s waste processor power by mirroring onto an hdtv instead of just outputing everything onto the monitor at a higher res... Gah.... Make it happen pleaseee

Sorry for any typos like I said im typing this via bluetooth keyboard connected to my tab... So no automatic spell check haha

thanks bro. thanks for also answering my question. glad you have a lot of money.

in case you havent realized devs release roms not even expecting a donation, its the pursuit of using the device to its full capability and having the heart to share it with others that drives them.

btw, pretty sure $10 for an app IS in fact a lot when you can get most things for $.99 on the play store, and an amazing custom rom for free.
