A bit confused - new to android

[phnick]

I have been an iPhone user for years now, but for my tablet I refuse to pay twice as much for the privilege of owning an ipad. I am looking at getting the Galaxy Tab 3 or the Tab 4 that comes out tomorrow. But there are two things I just don't get and it makes me nervous about jumping to a new OS.

1. Is it free to setup MS Exchange email on an android? I want to be able to check my work email and personal email all in one place. iOS makes it very easy to add corporate email.

2. If I get the older Tab 3, is it easy to just upgrade to the latest OS? Someone told me they are built for specific devices.

Anyway, any thoughts you have to make my decision easier I would greatly appreciate!

Thanks, Nick

Yes it is free and as long as the email isn't a gmail with a different @ something else then it should work. I mean by that is like my colleges email is a gmail but instead of @gmail its @vcat.Cvcc.edu which I've never gotten to work on the stock email app

Yup email is free and easy to set up. I was able to set up, log in and sync my old Hotmail account in minutes on my tab 4.
As for up dating the OS just go into Settings then about device and check for updates.
