Do you own a tablet?

[Auticorn]

If yes, what do you use it for? What kind of a tablet is it? Do you also use a stylus with it or do you just use its joypad instead?

If no, do you want to have one? What one would you like to have? What would you use it for?


I have a brand new iPad Pro. I just got it yesterday, and I'm using it on PC as I type this. I plan using it for my writing and drawing. I prefer using a stylus yo get anything done and typed. I still have my old iPad 2, but I figured it was time for a proper upgrade. ^w^



I know this has been asked before, but I was really curious.

Not really. I suppose in a way I already have a tablet; my laptop also functions as a tablet quite nicely when I need it to (yes, it's a 2-in-1 laptop). I also have a phone with a huge screen whenever I'm on the go and can't really pull out my laptop, so... there's really no reason to buy a seperate tablet when I have portable things with big screens, already. u_u

Ohhhhhh. You are so lucky! I've always wanted to have one of those, but they are expensive. ;o;

I don't have a tablet because my laptop running windows 7 is everything I need. I also have an iPhone 6S, so when I'm out and about I can use that.

If I was going to buy a tablet it would be an iPad, but I'm not sure what model I'd get.

I own two tablets! A Nexus 7 2013 and a Dell Venue 8 Pro.

I only recently started using my Nexus 7 2013 again after I did this to it since auto-rotate has been working like a charm again. It has a lot of apps installed and it's easy to navigate around with as a non-laptop device and can browse fairly easily. As for the Venue 8 Pro, I also use that one currently too. The Venue 8 Pro of course runs Windows 8.1, so I can use Windows programs on the go if I ever needed to.

Uhh...? Joypad? Tablet? We're talking about the same thing right?

On topic, I do own a tablet. It's the Nvidia shield tablet and it's amazing simply because I can enjoy HL2 on it when I'm on a plane, train, or automobile.

I (obviously) use it for both games, and a multitool for any other hobbies/things I need to get done.

And lastly the tablet comes with a nice Stylus, and I also got the gamepad from Nvidia as well (and a super cool case/stand!)

I just have a Kindle Fire that I got in oh, 2012? I don't really remember, but I know I had it before the first Hunger Games movie came out. I used to use it all the time when I liked to read and if I wasn't doing that, I'd be playing Sudoku or watching anime. I don't use it anymore sadly; it's gotten extremely laggy and I barely have anything I want to read.

I do have a used tablet. I mainly use it for YouTube and playing DS games. I don't really know what model it is, but I do know its a Samsung Galaxy Tab. Running Android 4.2 (yes its a little old ;-;).

But it does the job if I want to play or watch. I have a phone but its extremely underpowered. Its a Sony Xperia E which has 1GHz processor and it comes with 512 MB of RAM. You see that RAM? I cri evertime ;-; I can browse FaceBook and 9GAG (and SMS, call etc.) and that's it. I'm actually looking to buy a new phone next month.

 

[tokyodrift]

Yeah. It's actually pretty crappy and the only reason I have it is because my mom got suckered into buying it when she got her a new phone... I really can't wait until I can take it off my plan because no one even uses it...

I was given a Samsung Galaxy Tab (don't know what version number) by my dad for my birthday a few years ago, with the intention that I would be using it instead of my laptop on hot summer days away from my desk.
Needless to say, I hardly ever use my tablet, only turning it on for a few occasions, and it's hard for me to use the pop-up on screen keyboard. I never really cared for mobile devices anyway, despite everybody else thinking they're superior to desktop and laptop PCs in every way.

I have a Samsung tablet. Idk what it's actually called but I got it in a combo with my Galaxy S7 thru Verizon. I use it a lot.

Tbh I do most of my Internet browsing on it when I'm home.

I have a Nextbook Flexx 11.6" tablet. Got it around the end of last year to replace my previous tablet, which was...something I don't remember at the moment, but I had to replace it because the usb port for the charger got messed up somehow. And go figure I've already had to replace the charger on this one.

But it works well for what I want to do with it (which is just use it to browse around places and chat with people). And it comes with a keyboard I can attach if I want.
