Tablets

A tablet is one of the most versatile computing designs. With a screen larger than a smartphone and more portability than a laptop, a tablet is the perfect device for reading, taking video calls and enjoying entertainment when you’re traveling or commuting.

You can also transform many tablets so that they function like laptops by combining them with a tablet keyboard and tablet stand. Alternatively, with a tablet stylus pen, you can use your tablet more like a writing or digital drawing pad.

By using a mobile hotspot, you will be able to connect your tablet to the internet anywhere you get cell service. You can also choose a tablet with cell service connectivity for a direct cellular data connection. When home, connect your tablet to your home’s Wi-Fi network and use it to manage smart home devices or print directly to a wireless printer.

When you are investing in a new tablet, begin shopping by thinking about how you want to use your new device. If it will mainly be a digital reading device, you might consider an e-reader that can mimic the look and feel of the pages of a book or magazine. If you want something for taking video calls or watching media, you could be best served by getting a tablet with a large screen. Alternatively, you might want a small tablet with a tablet keyboard folio for word processing while traveling.

For any device, a tablet cover or tablet folio will not only protect your device but can also function as a stand, and a hard-sided tablet case can provide increased protection from drops.
