Phone and Android Tablets Tested and Good

[flyyyer]

I would be interested to hear of other good working setups , particularily low cost phones and or tablets so that I could buy another device and do a semi permanent installation in my aircraft.
I have tested and used the Samsung Galaxy Note which works great (now upgraded to ICS) SO Samsung Galaxy Note gets 5 stars from me.

I'm using the app on a Samsung Galaxy S3 smart phone, and it works well. This phone has a pressure transducer, it might be useful to use the data from to set the altitude.

tested on Samsung Galaxy TAB plus, with android 3.2 and 4.0, works fine.
is there any possibility that it'll become available on the Google Play for the tested platforms?

regards

Motorola Xoom II Media Edition. I have installed the app on 2 of these now and also upgraded one to ICS. Both work very well. An 8 inch tab is the perfect size (and price) for an airplane and I use both my Galaxy note and the Xoom. The Note app is continually updated via Playstore but the Xoom I have to download and update manually (luckily I know when to do this from the Note updates) Now on version 7.2 this program just gets better and better.......... Thanks

I haven't found anything it doesn't work on yet, even low cost devices seem to work OK. I think I may prefer a decent phone/tablet with all the sensors to use in anger though and why would you want a crap device anyway. I tried it on a laptop which boots initially in Android OK (Although it didn't have a GPS) OK for the sim mode though. I try this prog on everyones Android I come across Regards Peter G
