most tablets are going to have similar(ish) battery life especially when doing screen-intensive stuff like movies. some might be 4hrs and some might go to 6hrs, but it's unlikely to find one that only does 1hr or goes 12hrs. (snarky aside - shouldn't camping be about getting away from technology and distractions??)
bugs will be everywhere, to various extents. Apple might be least buggy but most expensive and might be most limiting in what you as a user can make it do. most androids are going to be up to the manufacturer's particular MO as to bugs - an Asus tablet will have a different amount of stuff than a Samsung tablet, even though they're all based on Android. it might be worthwhile to find one that is easy to root and easy to install a custom Android on it, so that you get their hardware and "your" software. Nexus devices are the easiest to root since they're kind of the most "pure" as far as hardware and software, but they never have expandable memory slots and they're expensive to buy.
but yeah, play around with the tablets and see which one behaves in a way that makes the most sense to you as a person. ignore the brand or the price. to draw a parallel, for 15 years i only shot Nikon cameras, and when i went from film to digital i played with Nikon stuff and just for kicks played with Canon stuff. about 15 minutes later i decided to ditch all of my Nikon stuff because the way that the digital Canon stuff worked just made way more sense to me than how Nikon did stuff.
