Tablets: Generic Vs Real

Move over Ultra Book and MacBook Air. It is the end of the year and the technology giants are going hard to put out the best Tablets to suit various audiences. Tablets are all the rage and are here to stay ( until they find a new device to top that ). In this age of technology everybody and their grandmothers have a Tablet, if you don't have a tablet be prepared to be treated like a leaper.

While some people choose to invest in the top brands like Samsung and Apple, there are some of us who choose a different route and purchase a generic Tablet. Here is how the generic Tablet matches up to the "Real" Tablets.

Price: A generic Tablet is a lot cheaper than purchasing an I-Pad or Samsung Galaxy Note. These brands will burn a hole into your pocket but the quality features you get is second to none. A generic tablet can run you anywhere between $74.00 to $180 Usd depending on the website.

Display/Resolution: These days even the cheapest generic Tablets seem to have a great display/resolution that are quite similar to that of a laptop or desktop. The "Chinese android" for example can be easily confused with an HP Tab because of the quality of the Resolution. The more traditional brands for example, Samsung has a clear, crisp, liquid display. The images and text look more realistic, however there is not that big of a difference as it compares to the generic brands.

Storage: This is where the Big name Tablets win by a landslide. The Samsung note for example has a quad processor, that's 4 rather than a dual processor. That little tablet can hold all your pictures from age 5 to 25 and then some! The generic Tablets on the other hand ... not so much. If you are a person who loves pictures or work in the Entertainment Industry, you might want to save your money and invest in a quality Tablet. Generic Tablets barely have over 8g memory. If you are looking to be a part of the "cool gang" and just want to have a tablet for having it sake , the generic Tablet is just for you.

Features: Brand name tablets are known for having great features, in fact most people who purchase Tablets, do so just for the features. Front and Back Camera, Home Movie ,being able to transcribe a hand scribble into a text that can be saved to your device. These are just a few of the features some of the more expensive Tablets come with. The generic Tablet like the Chinese version of the Android comes with a camera, that tilts your image no matter how straight you stand and also a few Google apps like maps. Because of the limited amount of memory, it makes no sense to download an additional apps as it might crash.

Tablets are great to have if you really need them. They are user friendly and loads quickly compared to Desktop and Laptop Computers. As it relates to choosing between Generic Vs "Real" Tablet, I will say it depends on your needs and of course your budgets. I bought a generic Chinese Android solely for the purpose of reading e-mails on the go and it works great for me.
