so not true, for a student it serves as an electronic library for all your textbooks you dont have to carry all your textbooks around.For those presenting seminars you save money and energy printing different materials for seminar praacticals,you just present with your pad.Bonus points your snap lecture notes from projectors (for those of us in ajebutter schools) ,you can also travel with it conveniently when travelling for short duration, ditching your heavy and space occupying laptop.The key point is don't buy gadgets because of hype but because you have need of it.plus playing games eg fruit ninja and temple run is sooooooo awesome on your pad lol just had to add that. 27 Likes |

Exactly what I've thought of some people do Blackbeauty: I was actually thinking that when I get one I would be happy for it..I got the cubetalk tablet..truth be told..I miss having a mobile phone..The truth hit me hard after I got a tablet that I actually don't need one..Well,asides using it to read ,its virtually useless. |

Because you dont use a tablet for anything beyond making calls does not mean it is useless. For instance my asus tablet does not include a sim. Only wifi... I use it majorly for reading and mobile work. Besides, its more handy than a laptop but with a bigger screen than most phones. It is also cool for watching movies and surfing the web. 6 Likes 1 Share |

U are so on point girl. I got an ipad4 for my wife at 135k, itz now used by my maid to teach my kids nursery rhymes! d pad is just large, not flexible, u can't swap sims easily, u can't transfer data wid ease, u can't make regular fon call wid it, no space for sd card, she can't go wid it if she is not driving; I can't list all cos am doing so wid grit teeth!! Well, my kids(1yr+and2yr+) are now wizards at operating d clumsy device, cos itz no longer a novelty to their mom so she let's dem fiddle wid it at wil while clutching dearly to her new, more flexible lumia 630. Gosh! 7 Likes |

@OP, your opion is correct as far as am concern. Look all these tabs and ipads are content consumption devices as they offer no serious productivity than to just read, download , play watch, and so on you cant really use them productively. No serious productive applications can run on them. Most of us Nigerians just rush things all because they are in vogue not because they will seriously serve a purpose. After all what they do, most mobile phones which we already have do them as well. I was a victim, owned an ipad, later one tab like that all of them no meaningful work with them i just freed them ojare. the only one i intend to pick up soon is that other one Microsoft released late last year. I think that one can carry office apps and some other robust applications for high productivity, with external keyboard and other valuable features. We need to be more analytic before going for all these stuffs. One Love Naija! 3 Likes |
