Tablets VS Smartphone


Before this, I am confused whether to buy tablet, or smart phone after my previous hand phone was broken. I really don’t know which one is the best and worth for me to purchase it. Therefore, I started to search and Google to help me in making decision and find the answer.
What are tablets and smart phones?



Tablets are somewhat of a cross between smart phones and laptops. They tend to have a bigger screen than smart phones and are mainly able to do everything that smart phones can, except making calls and sending SMS. There are also some applications that only run in tablets and not in smart phones. Tablets are built to provide a rich multimedia experience and allow a user to have more computational capabilities.
On the other hand, smart phones fulfill people needs as a phone first. The primary function is connectivity. They allow user to make calls, as well as receive and send text messages. They also have additional capabilities, and tend to perform more like a personal digital assistant. This is mainly due to their independent operating systems that install and run advanced and complex applications.
The advantage that smart phones have on tablets is their portability. Smart phones usually have a screen measuring between 3.5 until 4.3 inches. Compare to the tablets, the screen of tablets measure between 7 until 10.5 inches. Therefore, smart phones suit the need of majority of people that carry their phones in their pocket. Me also prefer to have a gadget that may suit to my pocket.
However, the benefits of tablets are having battery life better than smart phones. Smart phones’ battery life is not lasting for a longer period and always need to charges compare to the tablets.
Actually, there are many advantages and disadvantages in using tablets and smart phone. However, the most important thing is, I have sufficient enough of budget to purchase either tablet or smart phone and I have clearly determine what are my priority.
