How to choose a tablet? Buying guide and useful tips

© istockphoto.com

Our daily life is now marked by social notifications and the release of new smart device models. We all have a laptop (even more than one) not to mention the smartphone, an indispensable object even for more or less young people.

Tablets are the perfect fusion between a laptop and a smartphone, but don't be fooled: they are just as efficient as their colleagues. Tremendously comfortable on vehicles, when pulling out the PC is a real challenge, or while traveling, perhaps as a support for a camera and smartphone to keep all the best memories but it is also ideal at home, perhaps for surfing while the mobile phone is charging.

More manageable than a laptop, more comfortable for reading your smartphone, here's how to choose the tablet that best suits your needs.

Battery life

Battery life is definitely a priority for everyone but it depends a lot on the applications you intend to install on your device. Remember that audio and video are the fastest way to drain your battery in no time. So if you intend to use it for your Spotify account, for social networks or to watch videos, choose one that has an autonomy of at least 6 hours, during the purchase you will find the hypothetical hours of autonomy or the amperage of the battery, or a number next to the mAh symbol: the higher the number, the longer the battery will last. We offer you a Lenovo model with up to 13 hours of battery life!

Resolution

Pay attention to the quality of the resolution, both that of the screen (you don't want to watch your favorite series all pixelated!) But also that of the camera. Therefore, prefer a model that carries the words HD for an optimal screen resolution and a camera with the highest number of megapixels, so as to avoid those hateful grainy photos and be able to zoom in peace. Also consider the size of the screen, especially if you will be using it for watching videos or reading. The size is measured in inches and is indicated with a number and the symbol “.

Processor, RAM and memory

The processor is a real brain for the tablet and its size is indicated in GHz and core. The higher the number, the faster the device will be in operations. Equally important is the RAM which will allow you to install all the applications you need and manage them without your tablet crashing or slowing down. A good tablet starts with 2GB of RAM.
Finally, do not underestimate the capacity of the internal memory and check that it is expandable. You can then, once the internal memory is exhausted, insert a micro SD card even up to double the memory capacity of the tablet. Very useful if you have many photos or videos and really convenient, thanks to the expandable external memory, to transport your files from the tablet to the PC and vice versa.
