android tablets? are they worth buying?

It's my birthday next month, I'm thinking of buying a Samsung Galaxy tablet. It's roughly 200-220$. Are they worth it, really? I'd use it for YouTube, Skype, IRC, and browsing the internet. I want your guys' opinions. I already have an Android phone, so really it's just a bigger phone, isn't it?
Op, do NOT buy a samsung galaxy tab 3. DO NOT.
I have one and regret it. It's hard to even use skype on it.
It's really slow and I hate it.

Do you recommend another tablet for roughly the same price range?

I saw that thread, and did research on them. You can buy the exact same tablet for $45.00 on a chinese site. I wouldn't buy a tablet from a member, anyways.

Dude, the new Galaxy tablet is amazing.. The Nexus tablets are just as good (the 7)

Like crazy good dude.. Or even better if you had the money.. the pro surface tablet 2.. crazy shit man...
Look into the Nexus 7, my boy had one pretty dope. We played hella games on it, need for speed is fuckin dope when your stoned.
I think I have a nexus tablet, I use it for game, or just browsing, works well.

The newest 32GB nexus 7 is amazing. Hell, the old 10inch one was great
Nexus tablets are alright, my stepmom has one.
