In an attempt to make their products competitive in the ever-increasing tablet device market, companies are trying different methods to outsmart and outshine its competitors. The tablet market companies are implementing different sizes and offering slightly different models, timing their releases closely.
They can do this because the public is looking at many different sizes, styles, and designs for the tablets they want. This is not a one size fits all market for sure. If you just made one type then there would be a lot of people who would not be satisfied. It is a product in which customer preference and need dictates what will be bought.
With each size offered in tablets, there is a key problem in terms of marketing on paper the actual size. This can be a major deciding factor for a consumer as to their needs when looking at the three most sold sizes of 5-inch, 7-inch, and 10-inch. In print, these size variances appear slight when in reality the weight and feel of such devices can be quite different when the consumer is holding them.
But there are and so there are some things to be aware of, such as that a seven inch screen will sometimes be less than half the size of a ten inch screen. The reason for this is that the screen space is measured on the diagonal and that means you get proportionately more screen space every time you get an extra inch or more measured on paper.
Of course, each size has its advantages and disadvantages. A 10-inch tablet, for example, will be less compact and therefore less portable than a smaller version. On the other hand, its bigger size has several advantages; the higher resolution and bigger screen makes web browsing more convenient. It is also superior in terms of document creation and sharing, legibility, bigger keyboard, and of course gaming.
The next size down, the 7-inch display tablet, offers many of the larger screen advantages. Watching videos, gaming, photo sharing, etc. will be easy enough but this tablet offers the advantage of being half the size of the 10-inch tablet.
There are of course some disadvantages to choosing a 7-inch tablet. The view may have to be resized when browsing the web. Similarly, documents may need to be resized or viewed in full-screen mode. Finally, although it's more portable than a 10 inch tablet, it's not quite small enough to fit in a pocket or hold with one hand.
This is where smaller tablets such as the 5-inch come into their element. Although they are probably somewhat larger than a smart phone, they still fit neatly in your pocket, and they have many advantages over a phone in terms of functionality. Their main weakness lies with the smaller screen size, which entails more zooming, but for many people this inconvenience is outweighed by its versatility.
