I'm considering getting an Android tablet for nav, entertainment, reverse camera, etc...
The Apps I'll be using are: Google Maps (plus maybe an onroad offline nav app so I don't have to hotspot my phone all the time), Hema Maps, Spotify (offline and online), a podcast app, Torque or a similar OBD app, plus others too...
I have always been an iOS user but I'm coming around to the idea of an Android tablet for the car due to their customisation ability...
I'm considering a 2nd gen Nexus 7 due to being a "native" Google tablet so getting the Android updates as soon as they come out from Google rather than waiting for the manufacturer to decide if they will release a bloated version 6 months down the track...
Also the Nexus 7 seems to have a good following with mods that make it easier to use in the car including USB OTG for connecting external storage and USB video capture cards for the reverse camera. It also has GPS built in.
I'm wondering if anyone else has integrated an android tablet into their car? Which did you use and why?
I'm also considering upgrading my 10yr or so old Pioneer Single DIN head unit for a newer one with steering wheel control input and Bluetooth...
