    Hi,
    I am looking to buy a tablet to store all my lecture notes and problem sheets to save me printing them everytime before a tutorial or lecture (the 5c adds up).
    I am looking at the Nexus 7 or the Vodafone Smart Tab 2. But is the 7" screen large enough/high enough res to see a full A4 page clearly?

    If I have to go 10" I will look at the Nexus 10 but I dont want to spend a lot of money on something I will mainly use to store notes and browse the web.

    Not a problem for reading and marking notes. Resolution is good enough. Just don't expect to be doing much typing on it

    The typing is indeed fairly labourous on a Nexus, but it is possible to get a gist of lecture on it (was storing it on Evernote). I've tried to record a lecture, but the sound quality was poor and AFAIR there is no specialised microphone plug.

    It's big enough to read material on but a bit too small for typing and the like.

    Thanks for all the advice. I will still be bringing along a refill pad to take notes. Just want it for reading the stuff they put online. So no need for a 10". If so might be going Nexus shopping on Wednesday :D
