One month later! Are Android Tablets GOOD now?
Now that I’ve spent more time with the keyboard and stylus, I feel we can put more of a conclusion on the OnePlus Pad 2.
Well… not the COMPLETE conclusion though, as we still have to wait for the AI stuff to arrive. Jeez… This is getting complicated.
I really like the tablet though! Continue reading “OnePlus Pad 2 One Month Later: What’s it REALLY like?”

We have to start this off asking a MAJOR question:
Putting my bias up front, I’m not particularly impressed with tablet conversations fixated on basic use and “hand feel”. I don’t think that’s good criteria to judge the value of a premium purchase. If a tablet costs as much or more than a game console, it needs to do more than just stream some Netflix and “feel nice”.
Tablets have incredible processors, and GPUs, and RAM, and storage, and batteries. In a remarkably thin shell, we’ll find performance that often rivals similarly priced Chromebooks. These products are terrific general compute platforms, and it seems like such a waste to relegate them to the lowest level use.
Tablets are “solutions in search of problems”, but they can solve a LOT more of those problems than many people realize.
Tablets can DO stuff, and these two are great examples of “doing stuff” slates. They make for an interesting comparison because they’re so different. Continue reading “Pixel Tablet vs Robo and Kala: A Totally UNFAIR Fight!”
