Tablet buying guide by UsmanGTA


So you've got some money. And wanna spend it on something. Confused of the options you've got?

WHAT YOU NEED?
PEN, PAPER,
BRAIN
MONEY

So how hard is it to find a tablet? Here I'll help you find the best tablet with the best bang for the buck.

TAKE YOU'RE PEN AND PAPER AND START WRITING EACH OPTION YOU CONSIDER BELOW

So first of all

1. Consider your budget seriously
many buyer forget their budget and go looking for tablets above their budget and when they come back and look for whats in they budget they get confused.  So it's important to Make sure how much you want to spend and restrict it.

(Optional) keep some money extra in case you get a better offer anywhere. This is optional don't blame me later haha.

2. Consider your tablet screen size.
There are three options. Have your side
     2a. Go to the smaller sized one which is the 7 inch one where the tablet category starts. This is the best option for travellers, on the go people.
     2b. Or go to the full sized tablet which range from 9.7-12inch. This is where the main multimedia starts from. This is better for power users, family users, etc
     2c. Or go anything in between 7 - 9.7 inch. Your choice here.

3. Consider what you need the tablet for?
Watching movies? Playing games? Arranging and Managing your docs, just web browsing have your side and decide what you need the tablet for.

If you need the tablet for browsing/surfing the web, light casual gaming or for multimedia you don't need a high end expensive tablet. I'll list some tablets below

If you need it for gaming. This is where you really need to consider the specifications of the tablet you are looking for. This needs a bit higher specs and a bit higher price. However there are good brands out there that give them for great prices mostly in your budget.

4. Choose your OS side?
Choose your OS. Many go to OS that they're relatives friends or the surroundings recommend. Don't go towards them. Choose which one does your work or stuff better?

You've got three options in the tablet market.

     4a. Windows, the all-rounder.  Best for multimedia users, Managing documents and those who want a full Windows experience. Not recommended for gamers. If you need for multimedia or managing documents this is your choice. Others also do the same stuff but Windows does it way better.

You can get a original branded with warranty tablet from only $100 by HP.

     4b. Android, the open source project by Google. The android platform is the most common and also has the best customization options. This is also good for multimedia or gaming (you'll need money for better gaming). If you need it for gaming you'll need to seriously consider the specs. Try to stick to pure Android

Android platform is pretty messy and you get tablets from $40 don't fall for it.

What also in android is to consider the android version. Is it the latest version? Will the version get updated?

     4c. iOS, the most premium OS where you don't really need to consider the specs here except for what model are you buying. You can get the iPad Air or the iPad mini.

5. Consider the specs
What you need to look is the specs of the tablet if you are buying a Windows or Android tablet. Windows platform is much lighter. While in Android you really need to consider the specs.

For multimedia users
If you need your tablet multimedia you need nothing else than a Good quad core paired with 1GB RAM will be sufficient. Anything higher with a higher price will be a waste of money. However if you get better specs for the same price by a known brand then go for it.

For Gamers
If you need for gaming. You really need to get a tablet with at least 2GB RAM, 16GB Storage and Qualcomm 800 series Quad core or better Processor, with a Good GPU. Like Adreno 320 will be more than good or the Mali450P(plays high graphics games fluently at lower cost). These specs aren't necessary but are at which optimal gaming at High quality starts.

6. Consider the brand/Warranty
There are many known brands out there (Samsung, HP, LG etc) but there are some more high quality brands to seriously consider.

They are
Huawei
Xiaomi
Lenovo
Ainol

Onda and others are not to be considered.

If you buy any tablet please be sure to consider the warranty that is being provided ask the seller fully about the warranty process before buying

That's all folks if I get any update or anything to add for tablet users I'll add it soon until then Peace and leave down a comment below
