What kind of tablet do we need?

Consumers always hope that the product is strong enough to meet their various needs, but for the price, they hope that the cheaper the better. What kind of tablet computer can please consumers better? What tablet is a cost-effective tablet?


First, the lightness is endless. There is no lightest product, only lighter one. People always admire light products. This is the No. 2 rule for the success of consumer electronic products. Success cases are everywhere. When the iPad 3 was launched, many users decided to give up their purchase plans because of the media's remark that it was "heavier than the previous generation". The thinness of the ipad Mini brings people's expectation of the thinness of the tablet computer to a new level.


Second, simple design. Without fancy design and too many buttons, simple design can reduce the cognitive cost of users and turn consumers' attention to that screen.


Third, high-definition screen display. If in 2013, as a manufacturer, you can't get a 1080p or more screen, your flagship product will no longer have core competitiveness.


Fourth, the powerful hardware performance and the price of 2000 yuan. Quad core, large capacity storage and ram, large capacity battery, these important parameters determine the core experience of the tablet. Who would be willing to buy a low configuration tablet? However, the price expectation of consumers for this configuration is only around 2000 yuan, or even lower.


Fifth, with 3G / 4G and call functions. Is it a tablet or a phone? It's hard to say this clearly. In short, what consumers need is to be able to dial up like a mobile phone when they need to call, and to access the Internet through the cellular network anytime and anywhere. Although it seems silly to use an 8-inch or 10 inch tablet to make a phone call, that is often what consumers expect.


Sixth, super long endurance. If the battery life of a tablet computer cannot reach more than 6 hours, it is not worth buying.


Seventh, keep consistent with the mobile phone experience. Almost all manufacturers of tablet computers produce mobile phones, and the basic experience of tablets and mobile phones is consistent, which is conducive to the transformation of users. For example, users who are used to Samsung Galaxy note 2 will not have any cognitive impairment when using Galaxy note 8.0. This is the benefit of experience consistency.


Eighth, convenient input. Whether using a virtual keyboard or a stylus, a tablet with convenient input is not necessarily a good tablet, but a tablet with inconvenient input is definitely not a good tablet.


The above eight points are based on the factors that consumers consider when buying tablet computers. It is the combination of these factors that makes a tablet computer have a foundation for success.


Finally, we return to this MWC. We can see from the many new tablet products that have been released at present, in terms of hardware, high-definition screen, ultra long battery life and support for call function may become several important development trends of future tablet products. In terms of "soft" strength, how to effectively improve the comprehensive experience through the optimization of the Android system will also be the top priority for the next development of various manufacturers. However, for consumers, in fact, it is good no matter what. As mentioned above, we always hope that the product is strong enough to meet their various needs and the price can be as cheap as possible.
