I'm hoping for some information on what the outlook is on Android Tablets for the future. The efforts we've had over the past year or so have been absolutely dreadful for the most part.

Meanwhile in 2016, Samsung have released a new tablet...with Android 4.4! I used the wifes plain old iPad Air for an hour or so this weekend and set it up with an adblocker content (see ad) blocker for Safari. I couldn't believe how blazingly fast web page renders were in comparison to ANY Android tablet I've used over the years - even my Samsung Tab S8.4 with Adaway and Firefox or Chrome. Yes I know Safari is optimised along with iOS but Google really need to get back into the game here with a tablet focused OS.

The tablet situation has been poor for far too long. Even the Shield isn't all that yet and no-one out there has even heard of the Pixel-C - Androids best tablet by far.

Haha. Is the google/home button on the Bevel or the screen?

The Messages to his misses was funny about the 'went' and also didn't have a ? at the end, considering its a question. I guess it would have if it said want...
 
Given the apparent camera quality it'll be interesting to see what this is priced at.
