Android or iOS tablet? Help please!!

[chris-82]

As title really I've never had android always been apple,but I feel like I would like to try android out but having no experience with them I worry I may make a mistake by buying one due to hearing that u don't get as good apps or as many on the android store is this true? And obviously knowing where I stand with apple and android being new and unknown territory.
I'm looking at either a nexus 7 (not sure to get 16 or 32gb any suggestions?)
Or the iPad mini retina would only get the 16gb (due to cost)

So I suppose what I'm asking is what are the benefits of android over iOS and the downsides?

Any help would be much appreciated.

I do have a iPhone 4S but looking at possibly going android on my phone also I I get on with it.i don't really have many paid for apps and certainly non I'm bothered about losing.

Thankyou regarding the advice on tablet as said if I go android I will be going to a nexus 7 2013 model not sure if I need to go upto a 32gb or just stick with the 16gb?

My major worry is what is android like to use? Does it have a distinct lack of apps that are good? It's okay apple saying they have a million thousand apps but it's only good apps that count in the tally I care about! So in the android market place it may have less apps but are they mostly the important good apps? Do u still have to wait forever to he the good apps? Are there many virus apps and so issues with android? Is a anti virus measure a must? Any tips tricks? I'm just basically asking for some info about android and the differences to apple
