Is it wise to buy a tablet?
Several reasons exist why a tablet will suit your needs. First, if you are tired of carrying your laptop around a tab can quite easily replace it.
With the advantage of being more portable. Working on word, excel and other Microsoft office suites will be an added advantage.
What you should realize is that under 10 inches, Microsoft offers the office suites for free without requiring any form of payment.
Also, if your work is closely related to design, having a well-designed and stylish tablet can help speak a lot about you. For graphic designers this is God sent.
There are moments when inspiration hits you and the next step is for you to sketch it down. These days, pen and paper are usually not handy.
What is the screen quality of Samsung Galaxy Tab E?
Allow me to say this, there are 3 companies that are competitors when it comes to the quality of the devices they put out.
These are Apple, Samsung and LG. With that said I can vouch for the quality of the display they produce.
With a display resolution of 800 x 1280 pixels, this screen really rocks. The only disadvantage is the 157 ppi pixel density which is considered a little bit low for the current standards.
Although this may be true, many it is normal for them to have a low pixel density since the screen sizes are huge as compared to normal phones.
The 9.6 inch display will ensure you do your work comfortably without any compromises.
Does the charge last?
You should put away your fears about the battery life of this device.
The charge that can be stored in it is 5000 mAh which is decent for a tablet at this price point. The talk time that Samsung state for this device is 12 hours.
You should not overlook the fact that tablet balances performance and battery life.
What is the quality of the camera?
The primary camera comes at 5MP while the forward facing one is 2MP.
In my own experience, those who buy tablets are not usually too concerned with the camera quality, but if you would like to know, the camera is decent even at this megapixel point.
