Hi guys i'm over waiting for apple and i'm willing to buy an android tablet. Can anyone suggest the best, cheapest android tablet to use with the inspire?

Testing a Samsung Galaxy Tab S right now will report as soon as possible.

I have put my iPad Mini 2 to the side for now and went out and bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 I've had it for a week now and actually I'm starting to kinda like it. no issues with it so far. and right now best Buy has them $50 off

Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 as well.  I love my iPad, but the Galaxy is really nice, and I've had no issues with it.

It's s nice device and a good operating system.  (Plus, DJI has been updating the app about once a week)

Galaxy Pro 8.4 works very well.

Target also has them $50 off this week (1/25)

Just bought 8.4 tab S today after buying iPad air 2 specifically for my inspire. The tab S was on sale at Best Buy for $349, not much help considering I'm now $1,000 deep in tablets but I'll take it. Was considering $179 tab, but couldn't find anyone using it and didn't wanna risk my bird on a slower processor.

I'm not flying yet but the inspire software seems to be working fine on the 2012 nexus 7. It is a cheap albeit slow tablet, but has the latest android Os. I can control the gimbal smooth enough and adjusted all the settings to my liking. I will report back once the propeller locks arrive. Hopefully there will be an updated iOS app by then. I like android and use it daily but eventually I'll use the lighter iPad mini simply because of battery life. I like to review and edit everything on the move and need the extra juice. Samsung Galaxy devices simply drain too much battery (we have about 5 of them).

Tried my new Galaxy Tab s 8.4 this weekend. Not familiar with Android devices. Had to debug USB which is a "hidden" feature and not intuitive. A google search provided the answer. Unlike other pilots, did not run any memory cleaners or delete apps. Just couldn't be bother figuring it out.

Although it worked fine, there was definite skipping of frames in the FPV versus my IPAD Air. Not smooth. Others claimed to have eliminated same by using a memory cleaner. I simply couldn't be bothered. I did prefer the small form factor.

For now, I'll be returning the Galaxy, using my Ipad AIr, and if IOS clears, will get an Ipad Mini 2. If IOS never clears, then I guess I'll have to have an Inspire dedicated android device. Until then, IOS for me.

I've been told I'm at least another week away from getting my Inspire, so holding off switching to Android until the last minute.

Apple: Sort yourself out!

My Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet works well, great video quality, only a little stuttering - it is totally usable.

Barely fits in the device holder though...

Our take on choosing a tablet

I'm flying with a Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2". It aint the cheapest but it works good and handles the android app well. Even an old man can see this!
