The Tablet and the Reasons for Its Awesome Popularity

The Tablet PC is the latest status symbol as far as technologically advanced gadgets go and everyone who has ever used a computer would like nothing better than to own one. There's a wide choice of tablets available in the market these days and it can be quite confusing for a newbie to decide which one is best for his requirements and his wallet because let's be frank; they do cost quite a lot of money. When it comes to quality, most people tend to think of the Apple iPad which was the first to come into the market although now there are many Android tablets that are not in any way inferior to the Apple model.

Before buying a tablet for yourself, you should have some idea about its hardware, software and especially its operating system since they're all different from one to another with each having its own unique benefits to offer. Among the plethora of tablets on offer you can settle either for the slate type, hybrid or convertible. The slate, as you can imagine is just that with a screen and a stylus that can be turned into a Convertible when a keyboard is attached to it. The Hybrid on the other hand can be used as a Slate or a Convertible because it comes with a keyboard that can be detached. Unlike traditional computers, input of data does not require a QWARTY keyboard or mouse in view of the virtual keyboard embedded on the screen.

The most unique feature of the tablet is its touch screen on which you can write with the use of a stylus or your fingers. The size of the screen you choose will depend on your requirements and the iPad screen size of 9.7" is considered the most appropriate size for the tablet. A smaller screen will be difficult to operate and be more like a Smart phone while settling for a larger screen would be almost like carrying a laptop thereby negating the portability aspect of the tablet PC.

The tablet generally has a strong processor designed to handle multiple programs at the same time. Even though the norm is to have a tablet with a single core 1GHz processor the latest models are equipped with dual cores, additional RAM and fast connectivity to provide the smoothest possible service to the user. The tablet PC is also popular for its long battery life which is invaluable whenever someone is on the move for a long period of time and has no way of charging the batteries. These batteries are said to run as long as 8 to 10 hours on a single charge and this feature alone has made the tablet a much longed for device by all computer users.

The numerous advantages of the Tablet such as its size, portability factor, detachable or virtual keyboard and long battery life among others have no doubt made this device a 'must have' for businessmen and even students. All top manufacturers such as HP, Lenovo, Acer, Toshiba, Samsung and Compaq etc. have introduced their own versions of the Tablet today, and in spite of the high price tags they come with; the tablet will in no time replace the notebook and pen and most likely even the traditional type of computers in the future.
