Have you thought of this question before, the difference between tablet computers and pad computers

A friend approached me yesterday and demanded that I should tell him the difference between tablet computers and pad computers.

After explaining to him, I thought it will also be a good thing that I put it up here for those that might be nursing similar question in mind.

Let’s start by drawing up similar analogical question; literally, demanding to know the difference between tablets and pads can be likened to wanting to know the difference between a helicopter and an aircraft.

There we go, and off course I expect you to know by now that a helicopter is a type of aircraft in similar manner we will tell you that a pad is a type of tablet computer; as simple as that right?

So, the main thing and the generic term here is Tablet computer; and pad on the other hand is just a type of tablet computer.

And we define Tablet Computers in general term as mobile computers with touchscreen display within particular range of sizes that uses either finger or stylus gesture as substitute for mouse and physical keyboard.

With that now in mind, you can see that it will appear quite awkward trying to differentiate between tablets and pads or we can simply say that both are not in the same categories to present for any logical differentiation or comparison.

Since the general name for mobile computers of such nature is Tablet Computer, the name pads, can also be taken to be the name adopted by some mobile computer OEM in referring to their particular set of tablet computers.

Simple Op.....one is a drug when you ill (tablet) and the other is used by women on their period (pad)

You are basically saying the same thing. Tab is the shortened form of Tablet.

I suppose I only saw what I wanted to see.

But really, a tablet and a pad aren’t necessarily different from each other.
