2012-03-30
there's been a new iPad and a transformer Prime in this house for the past week and a half or so and I still haven't been able to decide which one makes a better pair with my Samsung Galaxy Nexus so this video is your opportunity to convince me one way or the other which would make a better choice they're basically the same hardware at this point from the back casing to the cameras to the buttons so it comes down to what you use the tablet for so let's take a look at my tablet setup shall we and leave a thumbs up on this video really helps out let's go so we'll begin with my iPad setup and this is only because I'm a bit of a new bit of with iOS and you know it doesn't take a lot to figure out but this is my wallpaper and I'll have of course a link to this in the description basically it's a grid of icons I don't have to explain that you guys already know how iOS works and I'm a really really heavy Google Apps user so I have a lot of third-party stuff that'll help me make up for the fact that I'm on an iPad here but most of the time I'm not using anything from Apple so all the Apple stuff is in this folder here and I wish I could get it off the homescreen somehow or just remove these icons or something but that's the way i OS works I can't get rid of them either way I have some of the Google services like Google Maps I also have Google Tasks in here and I have Google Reader in the form of an app called REE de are pretty good app for reading Google stuff I also have Google Calendar on here so I am making the use of the most of the Google stuff that I possibly can but the most important app here is the Google Search app and this was recently updated for the retina display and it allows me to use a whole bunch of Google applications and web services without having them like I'm not on Android so basically let's see Google Photos this will be the stuff that I've uploaded by Google Plus on my profile which is in the description Google Calendar of course which is probably one of my most heavily used google apps you can see that works very nicely here and check out Google Plus there's no real good Google Plus app for the iPad so I mostly stick to it on the web so there it is I am using a lot of this particular application on the iPad just because it is that good and it's kind of freaking out over here yeah I really do like this updater for the Retina display brand-new and free so other than that my iPad setup is pretty chill I have these apps on the dock here they have Gmail WolframAlpha with boss love that app go over here the side these are kind of the third-party things so a game I just downloaded called metal storm it was free you know masters 2012 a golf tournament coming up and I'm really excited for footboard because you guys all told me to get Flipboard so I got Flipboard it's not that great don't hurt me for saying that Flickr plus I'll just open up because this is a great application for just flying through pictures okay and this is a happen to search Ferrari and I got some pretty sick pictures here so yeah my iPad is pretty much noob status right now if you guys have any suggestions for applications that'll spice it up they are definitely appreciated for a Google user anyway my transformer prime is also looking very simple but that's because I've made it the way I've wanted to make it so here is my home screen setup with the transformer prime got a woody here to turn rotation on and off and brightness and I also got a shortcut to the calendar here in the form of a widget with the time on it and they got my most used applications down here at the bottom Google+ Google Reader Google's YouTube the Twitter app is called Twix browser Google Chrome Google Calendar over here to the right we have more settings and stuff that I'm oh a cure Utley actively use over here on the left is our beautiful weather widget so pretty common that always gives us the temperature it's gonna suck tomorrow I'll be very cold hon I have Spotify Google music and our Google gallery and a bunch of games and my Google Mail widget so as you can see a very very heavy user of Google services and that's why they are all loaded up on here and I have a lot of games I have asked fault and I have Google Earth that's pretty nice but I've said the word Google about 75 times in this video and you guys haven't already understood yet if you have any suggestions to help me sway my decision or what if I should get the iPad or the transformer prime you should probably leave them in a comment section or below and if you enjoyed this video give it a thumbs up as that really does help me out a lot the ratings are appreciated either way I'll talk to you guys the next video thanks for watching peace you
