No doubt, Laptops are getting obsolete these days. Reason - iPad/Tablets. More and more people are opting for these these tiny gadgets. Though iPad is still not in the reach of most of us, is it Tablets which are getting more and more popular. The Tablet industry which was earlier dominated by Apple iPad is now seeing tough competition from Tablets from both local and international vendors. Tablet seems to have flooded market with the increase in demand for the same. 

Now, how to choose a good tablet? How would you know which tablet is better for you? When it comes to buying Tablet, I have seen people in a bit of indecision over the same. I know it is not easy but with few basic understandings you can make a wise decision in the end.

The first and foremost thing to know with Tablets is the screen size. Size of the tablet is the most important thing before decision making. Tablets fall into two categories - Bigger sized as seen with iPad and smaller sized as seen with Kindle Fire. Bigger size tablets have screens measuring 10 inches diagonally. The bigger sized tablets are better for surfing websites designed for PCs, and far better when it comes to displaying magazines and documents. Smaller sized tablets on the other hand, measure 7 inches diagonally and are best suited for e-book reading and for kids. Also suited for older people with little computing experience.
