For most users, a tablet is still a secondary device that’s great for content consumption, gaming, social media use and light productivity. So why pay more for your slate than you would for a full-fledged laptop? Google’s 7-inch Nexus 7 tablet starts at just $199 and provides the latest version of Android, with over-the-air upgrades arriving as soon as they’re ready. Competing tablets from Amazon and Barnes & Noble cost the same or slightly less, but these devices have proprietary operating systems designed to get you to buy more content from their makers.

If you want something a bit larger, the 10-inch, $399 Google Nexus 10 provides an equally pure Android experience while costing $100 less than the current-generation iPad. Both Nexus tablets last well over 7 hours on a charge.
