Neither an oversized smartphone nor a shrunken laptop, a tablet is a new class on its own. Owing to its extreme portability, easy to use interfaces and many other functions, the tablet has become increasingly popular. In many ways, the best tablets can almost replace a laptop for someone on the go. Also, it is a better choice over a cellphone, for it's all so much better on a bigger screen. No matter where you go, you'll never have an excuse for boredom with a tablet.
Shortly after Apple's release of the iPad, which has changed the way people view computing. Google honed its Android platform for use on tablets, and many manufacturers have since released capable Android tablets. However, Microsoft has entered the tablet field as well, and although its entry was late. There are also a few others that run heavily modified versions of Android. Here's a brief look at the difference between the platforms.
iOS
Apple's biggest strength lies in its ecosystem. The past years has seen this company dedicated itself to building the App and iTunes Stores, as well as its cloud storage service, allowing users to seamlessly back up their devices to Apple's data centers. Just by logging in with an Apple ID, users can seamlessly sync their data among all their devices. Therefore, if you own other Apple devices, or enjoy services like iTunes, the iPad may be a good option for you. If you don't, well, it may still be the best option for you. The user interface is accessible and very slick, but it doesn't allow for much in the way of customization.
Still, many hold the opinion that they tried using the iPad for a bit but couldn't see its value as a productivity tool. I have to admit it was a bit of an effort getting used to the iPad and finding the right apps for productivity, but the apps are definitely there and many are quite powerful. In a word, it is still the tablet to beat in light of quality and it has the most impressive selection of apps and accessories.
Apple ipad (2018)
The new iPad 2018 packs the powerful A10 Fusion processor and supports the Apple Pencil. Most importantly, it is the cheapest tablet in Apple's range.
"The entry-level iPad doesn't add much, but it makes an already excellent tablet a better buy than ever." (quoted from CNET)
Android OS
I wouldn't say Android is "inferior" but it is certainly not as polished. I like the Android when it makes you truly multitask and I prefer just about everything else in iOS. I wouldn't say one is truly better than the other, it's a matter of personal preference. Yet in my mind, iOS is for sure more polished, less cluttered and far more stable.
On the one hand, the openness of Android is one of the key reasons Google was able to scale the platform to mass market share quickly. On the other hand, it also laid the foundation for fragmentation: the overwhelming diversity of Android devices and OS versions can often cause problems regarding interoperability within the Android ecosystem.
Besides, Android Tablet version is just a blown-up smartphone app, third-party builds of Android are limited as well, which cannot offer optimal experience to users. Moreover, the tablet's market is endangered by its older, smaller cousin, such as Xiaomi Max series, as they have quietly started doing all of the tablet's jobs—and in some cases, the smartphone has better performance.
All in all, with so-so performance with ecosystem and hardware, my Android-based tablets are only left for watching audio. Yet there are still some worthy tablets in terms of specifications and pricing:
Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus
Good news for users who prefer a larger screen and a longer battery life that can provide a more enjoyable experience! Xiaomi has just launched its Mi Pad 4 Plus tablet which sports a 10.1-inch FHD IPS display, Snapdragon 660 processor, 4GB RAM, up to 128GB of built-in storage and LTE connectivity as standard.
Mi Pad 4 Plus is the company's first 10-inch tablet and the 10.1-inch LCD screen has 16:10 aspect ratio and 224 PPI. As far as I'm concerned, the Xiaomi Mi Pad series of affordable tablets has always provided great value in terms of specifications and pricing.
Teclast M20
Teclast is a Chinese brand mainly known for manufacturing affordable Android and Windows tablets and this Teclast M20 tablet first-ever 4G tablet from the company.
The Teclast M20 tablet comes witg a 10.1-inch IPS, OGS screen display with a resolution of 2560 pixels by 1600 pixels with 298.9 pixels per inch, also the minimum standard resolution for every tablet out there in order to eliminate the horrible HD resolution many models feature. Besides, hardware is now powerful enough to handle that kind of resolution: it has the deca-core 2.3GHz MediaTek Helio X20 processor coupled with Mali-T880 MP4 GPU and 4GB of RAM. There is 64GB onboard storage with support for microSD cards in case if you want more space. The 4G network is also supported on both SIMs and the M20 can also be used as a phone in emergency situations as it allows phone calls too.
Windows OS
There are a number of solid reasons to explain why Windows has enjoyed a long reign as king of the workplace and Windows tablets can be thought of as a Windows Laptop turned into a tablet. As such, all the things that makes windows so popular are already there and these reasons contribute to making Windows tablets the choice to take to work. As a touchscreen tablet experience, Windows is still weaker than Android or iOS. Part of the problem is that it still feels like a hybrid between the old, familiar PC platform and the new tablet one. The app choice is also comparatively limited, pricey, and not as high quality.
