Whats the best portable Android tablet?

It would help to know what your key criteria and potential uses would be.

Price sensitivity (Budget)?
Size preferences 10 or 7
Any storage preferences? Lots of space, limited space ok?
Use? Gaming, e-Reader, watching movies, browsing the web, emails/Facebook stuff or would you need thing to do heavier things like office docs, etc.


Nexus 7 is a great little 7" tablet and it's inexpensive (199 for 16 GB, 249/299 for 32GB (wifi/HSPA)

Not so sure about the 10" but the main ones are Samsung Note and Google Nexus 10 although I am sure there are others that are really good too.

I don't need much space, I want a tablet to use when away from home for watching you tube, web browsing, light gaming etc. So a light, portable tablet would be great. Not sure about Nexus 7, is the screen a bit too small for web browsing?
