I’ve always seen them (iPad and mini) as different because of the market segments they sell into Ed.

I have one 7 inch android.
Thanks for all the votes and comments. Especially Stephen’s note about Android and menus.
With 102 voter, the figures show Android tablets beat Apple tablets 2:1 in the number owned by SOTA people. I would have thought the Apple figure would have been a bit higher, nearer 1.5:1. Windows figures are as I expected. If I were to do this next year, I’d expect to see the W10 tablet a lot higher.
I’ve been able to use the database on my nexus 7 for quite some time using the long press method. It took me a while to figure it out and just assumed it was a quirk of Android.

Very nice. There are some excellent pieces of “Windows” hardware around now, including ultrabooks and convertible laptops.

Android and a Surface Pro 3 with Windows 10. Liking the Surface Pro.
I have two Android tablets and an Android phone.
I run VK port-a-log on the summits for logging and to send and receive spots.
When I get home, or sometimes before I leave the summit, I upload the auto created CSV file/s to the SOTA database.
When I get home I import the auto created ADI file directly into Log4OM.
If I activate a WWFF area I email a second auto created ADI file to the local WWFF coordinator for upload into the WWFF logsearch.

Im an apple funboy.
iPad is my vote. (simple answer)
(complex answer)
After getting the 2015 Retina Macbook which is as thin as an iPad I use that for anything HAM related (windows virtual machine etc). Before that I also tried a windows 8 tablet for a month but it was really bad experience (not because Im an apple funboy… I wanted it to work! really.)
The poll is closed Tasos.
