Can A Tablet Actually Replace A Laptop In Terms Of Computing? Geeks, Over To U by generalissimo(m): 1:18pm On Oct 03, 2014 |
Computer Geeks in the house, pls ur help is needed in form of advice. It is often said that android tablets or ipads are here to replace PCs. But honestly, I dont really know how these tablets, aside their flexibility to get connected to the internet without modems and portability, can totally substitute for laptops in terms of functionalities. I dont have a tablet yet but I've been operating a Samsung galaxy tab3 that belongs to a brother almost everyday for a very long time. I'm conversant with the device. And if you ask me, I still prefer an android smartphone of the same OS version to the tablet cos they use the same apps and smartphones are more portable and have better specs than most tabs. If the claim is true, then it follows that smartphones too can replace laptops. But with what apps Maybe there are some apps that do the magic, pls let me know. I dont wanna make mistake as to whether to change my system for a more portable device (tablet) cos of mobility or not. Pls, I stand to be corrected and at the same time enlightened. Help me pls |

If you even have to compare a tablet to a laptop, then probably you own a 1gig RAM, Pentium 3 laptop running on 0.5Mghz processor speed and windows98 operating system. Okay, that's a bit exaggerated. A modern laptop can't just be compared to a tablet; at least at the time of posting this comment. 2 Likes |
