decision on droid tablet

I am deciding between three different tablets; all 7 inch ones. I need some help deciding between the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, Asus Memo Pad ME 172V-A1 16 GB and Lenovo A2107. The Galaxy is at $200, Asus $150 and Lenovo is $130.00. Any other suggestions will be heard as well.
I need to have a Micro SD Card slot as I will be travelling with the tablet and need an easy way to transfer and/or upload files from the card to tablet or internet.
Other than the photos; I will mainly be using this tablet for internet browsing. 3 or 4g capability is not necessary either. Games and Movies are of much lesser concern than efficient internet browsing, but could used slightly. Also; just need one camera for Skype and that is it. Reliability is key to me as well

Do you think I need the Galaxy for my purposes? Or will a less expensive tablet suit my needs? I have read some reviews, but wanted to get some feedback from this forum.

Thank you,

Scott
 
A colleague had a 7" Samsung and was very pleased with it.

Another colleague had the 7" Nexus and was very pleased with that.

All three of the tablets you list are from reputable manufacturers, I'm going to guess they all do what they say on tin and in the end, it's going to come down to personal preference (which in my case would probably = price :)).

The other day, someone on here said you can't beat getting hands on and I think there's a lot in that: are there any stores near you where you could try these out? You might find you try each of them and suddenly find the decision's made :)
 
Well, the good thing about Samsung is they are providing updates for their devices. My Galaxy Tab 7 Plus (2 year old model) is getting Jellybean officially from Samsung, something you can't usually say for lower end models of other manufacturers. If I'd go ASUS, I'd pick the Nexus 7 over the Memopad for reasons.
