SquareTrade, a company that provides extended warranty coverage for electronic devices, has posted a video comparing the Nexus 7 and iPad 3.

In this Face-off we test the Nexus 7 vs. the iPad to see how they fare when they are dropped from chest height, Table top height and when they are dunked in a bath tub.

Take a look at the video below to see which device survives.

Within the past year, Apple has lost a lot of engineers to various competitors. This device is one of many to come.

Thank You. Don't get all technical about it. Apple is better. Why do you think that Microsoft is losing money and apple literally giving it away, literally.
