My favorite part was when she specifically stated she did not just like that the tablet has a bigger screen, and then proceeded to explain a whole list of features that only work because it’s a bigger screen lol
As an aside, it reminds me of when I thought my Galaxy Note 2 had a massive display at 5.5 inches. Fast forward to 2023 and I’m kind of wishing my S23 Ultra were a bit larger despite measuring 6.8 inches diagonally.
I do have a Galaxy tablet that seems huge to me and I was amazed to find it has better sound and video quality than my TV lol
Huge is 13" or 15". Mine is 10" and too small.
12.4". It’s the biggest screen I have that’s not a television or a computer lol
Nice. Now if I could only find such hardware that is supported by Lineage OS.
It’s the differences in the aspect ratio. You cannot compare screen sizes based on the diagonal alone when the aspect ratios are different. A 6.0" 20:9 screen is smaller than a 5.7" 16:9 screen. And in terms of width, the 6.5" 20:9 screen is also less wide than the 5.7" 16:9 screen, which can matter for certain things (like typing).
Also what’s not helping is the curved screen, I find it takes another few mm off in terms of usable screen area, which makes a screen feel smaller than its stated dimensions.
that’s a long ass article just saying “I like big screens”
I prefer my phone because it fits in my pocket, thanks.
Sounds like somebody just needs bigger pockets.
Why are you not writing this on a smartwatch then? You seem to have tiny fingers.
… said nobody ever.
For real, I don’t even know people who prefer Android tablets over iPads lol.
Me. My tablet is open source. Walled gardens are useless for clients, too.
Tbh once you get an iPad you realise it’s just a big iPhone. And then you never use it.
My gf has an iPad and she uses it a lot, and I even get to use it as well.
I prefer my Tab S8 over my 2019 iPad Pro, because all I use my tablet for is editing photos and watching media — but because it has user profiles, I can also share it with my young kids and control their app and content access, etc. So, Android is a very easy win for me in that regard.
iPad REALLY NEEDS users profiles.
It does, yeah, but not giving it to you is part of how they’ve sold so many iPads. Think of how many parents and couples would be happy with one shared multi-user iPad instead of having to buy one for each user.
Apple can be many things, but dumb is not one of them.
Only tablet I ever bought was a nexus 7 back in the day when phones were smaller. I don’t think I’d buy a tablet ever again. For reading fiction I still prefer e ink stuff like kindle. For everyday phone is fine now. And well for everything else a laptop does it’s work. My tablet has been lying around for years without being used. The form factor doesn’t seem very conducive to me for anything. Also watching movies is simply easier on a laptop cuz I don’t have to think about holding up or balancing the screen.
I abhor Apple and exclusively only use Android, but this is some bullshit. Most apps on Andoid tablets are just crude transformations of their original phone apps, while generally on iPad the apps are at least made for the platform. Not to mention iPads are more powerful hardware-wise than any Android tablet ever made. Tablets are a segment where Apple does not lose, the closest competition is probably Microsoft Surface which is just as pricey, if not more.
