Why Not to Buy a Low-Cost Tablet?


Bangalore: Indian market is flooded with budget tablets and every day we hear about new launched or upcoming tablets. However in India, despite large numbers of low cost tablet in the market, Apple is the number one tablet maker with about 51 percent share while Samsung has around 25 percent share.

The Indian tablet vendors like Micromax, iBall, Karboon and many others have consistently producing low cost tablet with handsome features. But the question arises whether these low cost tablets provide the same user experience as the iPad or Galaxy Tab does?

Display

All tablet display are not the same? There are two types of touchscreen: resistive and capacitive touchscreen. The resistive works better with stylus and the capacitive one works well with fingers.

Though the resistive touch screens are almost dead in the tablets and all capacitive touch screens are not the same, they differ in their responsiveness. Several low cost tablets with capacitive touch screen don’t have good touch accuracy. This touch accuracy makes the functionality difficult with tasks like playing games, during in web browsing and when it comes to some serious typing it is really a pain.
