Tips for Android tablet shopping ?1?

We have all dreamed about one day use the technology that only from the sci-fi movies, the touchable screen, the internet access, video conferencing, browser, and e-book reading in awesome, fluid, streamable video. It is from tomorrow.
Screen quality
If you’re shopping for an inexpensive, here are some tips for avoiding a lemon.
Screen quality
When it comes to tablets, the screen is everything–your display, your user interface, your keyboard.
By sight alone, it’s difficult to distinguish a goodif screen from a bad one. A lot of the critical technology is out of sight. Check the specs. Is the touch screen capacitive (like an iPad or Galaxy Tab) or resistive (like a supermarket credit card reader)? Does the screen support multitouch input for zooming photos, maps, and Web pages with a pinch? What’s the resolution? If the tablet’s specs don’t call out these details, assume the news isn’t good.
Some details are cosmetic. For this Maylong M-150 (aka, the Walgreens tablet), the warped, uneven surface of the screen is a telltale sign that cheap plastic was used. Premium tablets, such as the iPad, Galaxy Tab, and Dell Streak, typically use glass to cover their displays, or Dow Corning’s extremely durable Gorilla Glass.
Not all plastic screens are bad, but the cheaper ones are more prone to wear and warping.
Port check
Check the ports on the tablet. Here on the Maylong M-150, you can see sockets for the power adapter and headphones, two speaker grilles, a mysterious dock connector that looks similar to the iPad’s, and a microSD card slot.
Seem about right? How about a USB port for connecting to a computer or recharging? The specs list two USB ports and an Ethernet port, but where are they? Turns out that mysterious dock connector isn’t what you’d think.
Adapters
In this example, the manufacturer offloads USB and Ethernet support to an awkward dock adapter. Even with the adapter, there’s still no method for performing a basic sync between the tablet and your computer. The best option available is to transfer content from your computer to a microSD card.

Well , I will continue to talk about how to choice a .
True screen brightness
Ahh, here’s a classic trick from the days of portable video players. A screen’s backlight is one of the biggest drains of battery power. In order to preserve battery life, and achieve a competitive battery life spec, manufacturers will often make the default battery life unusably dim out of the box.
If you’re testing a demo unit of ain a store, it’s probably plugged in and set at full brightness. To see how the screen would look under the conditions the manufacturer used to calculate battery life expectancy (if they even bothered), dig into the brightness settings and put the bar at exactly half. If it still looks OK, try it outdoors.
The Maylong M-150 tried a different tactic. Instead of using a dim default brightness and forcing the user to kill his own battery life by tweaking the brightness settings, the Maylong comes out of the box already cranked to full brightness. Of course, at this setting, the battery only lasts a few hours, but at least it’s impressive out of the box. Unfortunately, there’s nowhere to go after you’re already maxed out. Even at max brightness, the tablet screen is difficult to view outdoors.
Power adapters
It’s never fun to recharge a gadget. With tablets and e-readers, the battery life expectations are especially high, ranging from 10 hours (iPad) to weeks (Kindle).
When it does come time to recharge, you want to find yourself digging for a missing charger or proprietary cable.
Apple can get away with their proprietary dock connection shenanigans because their cable is so ubiquitous and available at any chain drug store. We’re not trying to cut Apple any slack, it’s just a reality that their charging cables, accessories, and adapters are as easy to find as light bulbs.
For anyone else, though, recharging really needs to use a common standard, such as USB. The Maylong M-150 didn’t go so far as to use a proprietary connection, but they didn’t make it easy either. It took us only a few days before we lost track of the AC adapter included with the. Considering that battery life is only a few hours, we felt the pinch of this recharging method pretty quickly. Bottom line: figure out how the tablet recharges and look for devices that can pull their juice over a common USB cable.

About how to choice a goood android tablet, plz read as belows I am sure that u can benefit from that .
Tactile Android buttons
The Android OS specifically calls out for at least three hardware navigation buttons: home, back, and menu (some also include a search button).
Like the Apple iPad, the Maylong M-150 included only one button on its face, relegating the other controls to touch-screen buttons. And though the Maylong’s one button looks like a Home button, it actually behaves like a back button. It’s bizarre and frustrating, and it does a disservice to the Android OS.
The lesson here: devices need the Android three-button hardware scheme to work properly. Also, test the buttons to make sure they behave as you’d expect.
Just because an Android device includes an app store doesn’t mean it uses the official Google app store. In fact, only a handful of we’ve tested (Dell Streak, Samsung Galaxy Tab, ViewSonic ViewPad 7) actually include the Android Market.
Sometimes, an Android device will offer no app market at all (often the case for e-readers, such as the Nook Color). Others, such as the Maylong M-150 or Archos tablet line, use their own app store with limited offerings.
The easiest way to check if the app store is legit is to dive into the top-ranked apps and look at the selection. If you don’t see a Pandora, Gmail, Yelp, or other top-tier apps, you’re probably dealing with a phony storefront. Another way to tell, most phony storefronts only deal in free apps, or free demos that ask for money only after the app is installed.
You can get android tablets with 10 inch, 7 inch, or 5 inch screens, and they come with different level of on-board RAM, processing capabilities, and battery life. In my point of view, I think 7 inch model are fitting perfect for the hand. Compared to the iPad 9.7 inch screen, the only 7-inch screen, but still a great android alternative to the iPad. The display is a thin film transistor (TFT) LCD display at a resolution of 800*400. While iPad 9.7 inch model is heavier and bigger, I usually get my arm hurt when using for 2 more hours.
Now with more product flooding into the wholesale electronic stores, the competition upgrades. Choose right size for yourself base.
