I was thinking of getting Kindle for reading but Amazon increased its price again to Rs. 6000. Now, I'm thinking of getting a tablet. Here are my primary concerns :-
Shortlisted :-
Now, please solve the dilemma. Asus has dual SIM which can be used for both voice & data and has a better interface whereas Dell has 16 GB internal memory & 2 GB RAM. I have not seen any of these tablets in person so I can't figure it out on my own.
- Reading books on Aldiko.
- Streaming movies & TV Shows from Plex media server or sharing media via samba server running on my system. (Plex app for tablets is for $5 and I don't have a credit card to pay for that
) - Light internet browsing (can be turned towards heavy internet browsing if the temperature in the winter drops below 0 degrees here in my state).
- 3G connectivity is not a priority but if I can get it in the specified budget then I'll go for it.
- Battery life should be good. Anything above 6-7 hours is great. But not less than 6 hours.
