It has been more than 7 years since Steve Jobs introduced the first iPad on the market. Many gadget makers all around the world followed his steps and also created tablets. Though according to some reports, the market for tablets is slowly dying. So, the question now is: Are Tablets still worth it? Manila Shaker is here to give you answers to why “Yes, still worth it” and “No. Not worth it anymore.”
Tablets are made for people who want to create something using a bigger screen. If you’re a digital artist, you can use the tablet to create your artworks. It’s also more fun to watch your favorite TV shows and K-dramas with a big screen. Or maybe you’re a bibliophile? Well, there’s no need to buy a kindle! Another good thing about the tablets compared to a kindle is: it has color. It’s obviously more fun reading graphic novels using the tablet.
If you need to finish some documents and the laptop you have is kinda heavy, you can just use your tablet. Also, you can purchase a foldable Bluetooth keyboard so you can type comfortably.
If you have a sibling or children who love gaming, they’d probably love the tablet. There are thousands of kid-friendly apps on the play store and IOS’ app store that they will surely enjoy. There are cheaper tablets on the market for your kids so it wouldn’t hurt so much if they drop it or scratch the screen.
Wanna learn how to bake a chocolate cake? Or maybe how to perfectly contour your face? It’s much easier to watch tutorials and follow the instructions on a tablet with again, its bigger screen.
It’s almost 2018 and you might have noticed that smartphones are getting bigger and there are tons of lighter laptops on the market. There are smartphones now that has a 6-inch display. Also, laptops that are so thin, it doesn’t feel like you’re holding a laptop anymore.
Since it’s obviously larger, it’s really a hassle when taking photos with it. Also, most smartphones have better camera quality than tablets.
Disappointed with tablet manufacturers for not putting something “extra” on the tablets aside from the shape and size. Everything that your tablets can do, your smartphones also can.
