The Ideal Tablet

In the last two decades, the world has witnessed drastic changes in each and every field. But the change has been immense in the field of technology. Telephones have transformed to smartphones, pagers to WhatsApp. Huge desktop computers have evolved into small, light weight laptops, netbooks and even tablets. The keyboard and mouse has lost their utility for these input devices are found on the output devices, i.e., on the touch screens.
Words that can perfectly define the past two decades is innovation at its best. This innovation has always addressed our necessities and problems and tried to solve them. But there has been one innovation that has made a giant leap, solving a number of problems at one go. The innovation is called tablet or simply tab, named after the clay tablets used to be found in the excavations of old civilizations due to similarity in looks.
Tablets are the most wonderful gadget till date. It has got enough power under its hood to let you work like in a laptop, that too with the added advantage of touch screen, play sophisticated games with high end graphics, enjoy movies and songs, and what not. And all these can be enjoyed on the go. But you might ask laptops have all these features and can be carried around as well, so what's so special about tablets? Well, you might carry a laptop all around but try working in it while traversing in a public transport especially during the working hours. But tablets are much easier to handle in crowded places being smaller and compact in size without the keyboard part. Moreover, laptops are quite heavy and most people, having to carry them in their bag pack all day around, complain of severe back aches while no such problem exist with the tablet.
So when the tablets initially hit the markets, there was a lot of speculation around it. But the price being too high, it was not a commoner's commodity. However soon different small companies took interest in it and started producing it within the 10k range. It was possible for them for they didn't have reputation in the markets and therefore didn't care to maintain quality unlike the biggies such as  Apple or Samsung. No sooner did these budget tablets come up, they started selling like hot cakes. Even i got one myself convincing my mother that i really needed one to study the ebooks provided by the college professors of the foreign authors, the printed versions of which were too pricey to buy and were not easily available in libraries.

As soon as i got it, i started flaunting it in public, from playing Temple Run to listening to music and sometimes even watching movies, i did it all on my way to college. And, people used to stare at the device as if i was working on some gadget of the 31st century. But i problem i faced in doing all this was with the battery. The battery life of these smart devices is so low that i needed to charge my tab at college everyday so that i can avail its services on my way back home. Which means the battery of my tab ran only half a day if used extensively. Every time the battery became really low, i started to miss my first phone, Nokia 3315. Oh! What a battery life it had! A fully charged phone would run for five days in normal use without requiring a single charging.
The other problem that i had was placing the device in proper viewing angle while using it but without holding it in the hands. Suppose, i am watching a movie laying on the bed, i can neither lay the tablet on the bed's surface completely nor could i hold it for a continuous two hours or so. To solve the problem, i made myself s stand by bending some scrap metal plate which solved it to some extent but failed when the viewing angle changed. I even tried searching for different stands in the markets & cyber markets but  without much success.
However, the new tablet by Lenovo solves these problems by a huge extent. The new device is called the 'Yoga Tablet' for the various ways and angles it can make itself stand. If are to look on and see the tablet changing its posture at a fast pace, it won't be hard for you to understand the name's worth.
If you are corporate guy, always making and demonstrating presentations then this Yoga tablet is the most ideal device for you. Even if you are a youngster, catching up those dance moves in YouTube, this Yoga tablet will be a lot of help to you. And if you are housewife, reading magazines or cooking new food most of the time, then trust me this Yoga tablet will be a great companion to you. Its the ideal tablet of the time and the tablet we all have been looking forward to for it has got all the features one needs to sustain his daily technological life. Wish i had waited a year to buy my tablet for then i could have bought this ideal tablet, the Yoga Tablet by Lenovo.
