Best Tablets in India

If you are looking for the best tablet that money can buy, you need not look beyond the iPad Pro. It is available in two screen sizes, 11-inch and 12.9-inch. The biggest difference between the two screen sizes is the technology powering the display. The 12.9-inch variant has mini LED backlighting while the 11 inch one has a traditional LED display. The power under the hood and performance of both the variants is identical. The new iPad Pro’s are powered by Apple’s M1 chips - the same that is powering the Mac Mini, new MacBook Air and iMac. The iPad Pro has evolved a lot over the years in terms of hardware, the iPad OS and even its multitasking abilities. It also supports a pencil for the artist in you. The tablet now supports a mouse as well, so if you like navigating a device with a mouse, and don't want smudges on the screen, you can do so.

The keyboard doc also has an integrated trackpad for a PC-like experience. It also comes with a quad-speaker setup for an immersive movie watching and gaming experience.

If you are looking for a “pro” level iPad experience but don't want to spend as much, then you can consider the iPad Air.

It runs on Apple’s A14 bionic chip and has a 10.9-inch retina display with a Wide colour (P3) gamut and the ability to hit 500 nits brightness. Unlike its Pro sibling, this one only comes with 2 speakers that are loud and clear. It has a single camera in the front and the back and also has the good old touch ID fingerprint reader for security and misses out on Face ID. It supports the Apple Pencil, for the artist in you. You can connect a keyboard dock to the iPad for a laptop-like experience and can also use a mouse/trackpad with it.

If a “Pro” like experience is something you want on the Android side of things, then you should consider the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7.
