Operating system
In the Iranian market, you have to choose between Android or iOS for the tablet operating system. Of course, a very limited number of Windows tablets are sold in the Iranian market. However, in the global market, users also encounter tablets based on Amazon's ChromeOS and Fire OS operating systems.
By purchasing an iPad, you enter the attractive ecosystem of Apple products, and many of these tablets also support the Apple Pencil. they do. Also, we should not forget the long-term software support, which means that your iPad will be updated for several years, and this issue has doubled the appeal of iPads.
On the other hand, there is a lot of diversity in the Android ecosystem, and with You can find a suitable tablet for all kinds of budgets. There are no restrictions in the Android ecosystem, and you can easily install all kinds of apps directly without the need for the Play Store environment or any other app store. Due to the fact that the cracked version of all kinds of games and apps for Android can be easily found, some users are very interested in using this ecosystem just for this reason.
Windows tablets are very expensive and therefore have limited users. In the Iranian market, due to sanctions and filters and other problems, even if you have the possibility to buy ChromeOS tablets, it is not logical to buy them at all. This operating system is supposed to simulate the experience of using computers, which, due to Iran's restrictions, you cannot practically take advantage of its capabilities. Finally, we should mention the Amazon tablets, which are hard to find in the Iranian market and are a good choice for children.
Budget
Of course, to buy a tablet like any other product, you should pay attention to the budget you have. Due to the fact that the price of the dollar in Iran is increasing rapidly, a little procrastination in the field of buying a tablet may lead to a decrease in your options. Currently, the cheapest iPad sells for about $350, and the base price of the 12.9-inch iPad Pro is $1,100. In the market of Android tablets, there is a much greater variety of prices, and therefore users choose among Android tablets to buy a cheap tablet.
Therefore. In order to allocate an accurate budget for the purchase of a tablet, you must first determine your task for how to use the tablet in question. For example, features such as a high refresh rate of the screen, although they make the user experience more attractive, but if this feature means a significant increase in the price of the tablet in question, then it may not make much sense to pay the difference to use such a feature. In the rest of this article, we discuss other important characteristics of tablets.
Size
If you are one of the people who always use the tablet in different places, then you should pay attention to its size before buying. For many users, a large tablet is more attractive and for various tasks, it probably brings a better user experience. But a bigger tablet doesn't mean it's better for you. Apple's iPad Mini is a small and compact tablet that has been widely welcomed due to its features and good hardware power. Therefore, the size of the tablet is not directly related to its quality.
Instead, you should see which tablet size best meets your needs. Users who use tablets in a fixed environment most of the time and are not very fond of moving them, usually turn to using large tablets. But users who want to use the tablet easily in different places, it is better to choose from compact and light tablets.
Hardware specifications
Most tablets - especially Android models - do not use very powerful hardware compared to phones. Therefore, even though budget phones have been equipped with good hardware in recent years, many budget tablets use very poor hardware. Therefore, before buying a tablet, you should see what you want to use it for. If you only want to use a tablet for tasks such as watching movies and series, then the amount of RAM and chip power is not very important to you. You don't have a tablet with powerful hardware. Therefore, before buying a tablet, be sure to pay attention to this issue so that, on the one hand, you don't needlessly spend more than you need, and on the other hand, you don't end up with a tablet that is weaker than expected.
Display quality strong>
Given that to interact with the tablet, you have to use the screen use it, then this part of the tablet is very important and you should not underestimate its importance at all. Whether you're using your tablet to play games, multitask, or watch videos, you'll spend a lot of time looking at the screen anyway. Therefore, even if the tablet in question uses excellent hardware but has a low-quality screen, you will certainly not have a very pleasant experience while using it.
On the other hand, note that a tablet with a high-quality screen certainly does not have a low price. Therefore, according to the budget you have, have realistic expectations about the quality of the display so that you can use the best possible display for your budget.
Manufacturing company
and because of this, now the variety of companies in this market is much less than before. Samsung and Apple are the most important companies active in this market. If you are looking for long-term software support, high hardware power and taking advantage of Apple's attractive ecosystem, then naturally you should choose between iPads.
On the other hand, Samsung has a lot to say in the field of tablets. For example, we can mention the Galaxy Tab S8 Plus, which is one of the best tablets for gaming. In the last few years, Samsung has managed to significantly improve the quality of its tablets, and their user experience has become much better.
Of course, among Windows tablets, Surface tablets made by Microsoft are very attractive, of course, the price They are also high and therefore only a limited part of users use the tablets of this company.
Internal memory
The amount of internal memory also depends on your needs. People who use tablets for normal tasks such as browsing the web, watching movies and playing light games do not need much internal memory. But on the other hand, if you are an artist, you download a lot of files with a tablet, or you are looking to play various games, then you should consider using a tablet based on a larger internal memory. In this context, it is better to use the technology for internal memory Also pay attention because this issue affects the performance speed.
Of course, fortunately, apart from iPads, many tablets support microSD memory cards, which, although they do not provide the same speed as the internal memory, but in any case With this feature, you can increase the memory of the tablet.
Battery
Regarding the importance of the battery, we don't need to talk about anything special because all users are aware of the importance of this feature. If a tablet has a low battery life, you have to constantly connect it to the charger, which makes the user experience difficult. On the other hand, charging speed is also very important because tablets use giant batteries, and if the charging speed is lower than expected, you have to wait a long time for the battery to charge.
For example, we can refer to the Galaxy tablet. Note that Tab S8 Plus has a 10090 mAh battery and therefore benefits from a long battery life. This tablet supports a charging speed of 45 watts and you have to wait about 80 minutes to fully charge the battery.
Design
Tablet design and all types of devices. It is a matter of taste. For this reason, for some users, only the performance of the tablet is important, but for others, the design of the tablet is also very important. So even if this issue is very important to you, remember that in the end hardware and software features play a more important role.
