Review: Vido W8X 8″ Windows 10 Tablet PC

Posted on May 10, 2016

vido-w8x-tablet-pcI’ve used a number of tablets in the past, and as expected, some were better than others.

While I love my Android phone, I’m not a huge fan of Android-powered tablets. They just seem to be too limited for my tastes. And while Apple’s iPad line is outstanding, they’re a bit over-priced in my opinion.

Since I primarily use tablets when I’m traveling, I’d rather take along something that’s a little less expensive just in case it gets lost or stolen.

Personally, I prefer to use a tablet that runs Microsoft Windows.

I can add a keyboard cover and Bluetooth mouse and have a Windows tablet that works exactly like a really small laptop. That’s perfect for traveling since I can just toss it into a suitcase.  [Read more…]

Review: Lenovo Flex 2 15.6-Inch Touchscreen Convertible Laptop

Not all that long ago you basically had a simple choice to make when it came time to buy a new computer: Desktop PC or Laptop?

Well, these days things are a bit more complicated because we now have tablet PCs thrown into the mix.

Of course if you’re shopping for a desktop PC your choice is easy. Simply choose the brand and model that has all the features you need, then buy it.

But if you prefer something that you can take along with you, you’ll need to decide whether you want to stay with a traditional laptop or try your luck with a tablet. But what if you could have both, in one device?  [Read more…]

Review: Kindle Fire HD 6

A while back I tested and reviewed the Kindle Fire HDX from Amazon, and to put it mildly I was very impressed.

That being said, I must say that when Amazon announced the release of the Kindle Fire HD 6 (#ad) at such a fantastic price, I was more than a little skeptical.

But as it turns out, I shouldn’t have been.

While putting the Kindle Fire HD 6 through its paces, it quickly became evident that this was far from just another bottom-dollar junk tablet.  [Read more…]

Review: Quantum Axis A23 7″ Dual Core, Dual Camera, 1024×600 Capacitive Screen Android 4.2 Tablet

Posted on June 19, 2014

quantum-axis-a23-tabletI had been on the lookout for an inexpensive Android tablet for a while when I learned about the Quantum Axis A23, a 7″, dual core, dual camera model with 512MB of DDR3 RAM.

To be honest, the low price tag concerned me a bit, but since I had heard good things about it I thought I’d give it a try.

The very first thing I noticed when I picked it up for the first time was how well built this tablet is. I expected a tablet that costs so little to feel cheep and fragile, but the feel of this Axis A23 is neither. The attractive molded plastic case firmly holds the screen in place with no bending or cracking sounds.  [Read more…]

Tablet PCs on pace to outsell laptops in 2013

Posted on May 29, 2013

ipadsAccording to a study by market research firm IDC, Android based tablets, iPads and other tablet PCs will outsell laptops in the year 2013, and by the end of 2015 they will be outselling both laptops and desktop PCs combined.

Why? Well, first of all, the amazing success of the Internet has led to the decline of the traditional PC in the marketplace. The web now allows many tasks that used to only be possible using software running on a “real computer” to be completed in the “cloud”, making the need for a fully equipped PC obsolete for the average user.

Not counting the ones used at work, most computers these days are used primarily for surfing the Internet, sending and receiving email, and chatting, all of which can be done quite easily and efficiently on a tablet.  [Read more…]
