Nvidia Shield K1 or Samsung S2 8.0

[museprime]

So I am looking into doing away with my Samsung Note 10.1 2014. I saw the Samsung S2 8.0 and was really impressed at what I saw it was thin and fast. looks perfect for magazines and comics.

But I also have been hearing about Nvidia shield tablet which seems to offer of course gaming x 10.

Does anyone have any experience with either of these tablets and can give me an feedback?

Thanks

Ehh, Well I got a Nvidia Shield kinda with the intent to like, use it to continue gaming in bed or something.

It didn't work super great for that, and I never had reason to use it at home and never really went anywhere with it to get any good use out of it.

And I eventually bought a laptop that was actually ideal for continuing my gaming sessions in bed, or to continue watching youtube, or reading stuff on the internet to fall asleep to. (or quickly googling up info about whatever gameboy game I need info on without having to leave bed)

Yeah I have a PC that's pretty good for gaming. And linking with my Steam link. I Went to best and snagged a Asus Zenpad for a $70.00 Floor Model.. Ended up keeping my note for now as the stylus is Wacom tech and it still perforns. I just wanted really something small than a 10 inch screen with good resolution for reading comics and magazine and that's lighter than my note and that's a small acomodation with my Bamboo Spark. So far not bad. It's not better than the Samsung S2 8.0 but it does a decent job for what I wanted it for. Would mind the extra resolution but I wasn't going to shell out $400 for an S2. Samsung is playing ipad tactics there.
