Our partners of Xataka They have just published a comparison between the two tablets or tablets that will arrive in the fall. Its about Google Nexus 7 and Amazon Kindle Fire HD. In addition, and as we commented the other day, it also arrives SuperPaquito, the new device of Imaginarium It will land hard in the fall and surely at Christmas. In addition there will always be the Apple iPad. It is clear that each tablet has its functionalities and although Imaginarium may be a bit different, there is a common link that unites them when it comes to putting them in the hands of a boy or a girl.
And it is that in homes begins to have screens for any room. Going to the bathroom to read the labels of the shampoo is no longer fashionable, now it is a tragedy to go to the bathroom and forget the tablet, the mobile or in general a screen that has and offers connectivity. And children also take them or use them lying on the couch because they are comfortable, allow them to play, learn, read and entertain a lot.
As for price, the cheapest tablets are also the smallest and offer Wi-Fi connectivity, they are Google's Nexus 7 and Amazon's Kindle Fire HD. With Amazon, the key is the services that are accessed, obviously, and because it is the largest library on the Internet, download books, access multimedia content and connect the tablet with an HDMI cable to the television. It is Amazon's big bet, access to services, so if your little one reads and consumes video it may be the best option. On October 25 the Amazon Kindle Fire HD goes on sale in Spain. With the Nexus 7 you can access YouTube videos, Gmail mail, maps and in general the universe of Android applications. These tablets cost 199 euros.
TO SuperPaquito, which goes on sale on September 8, 2012 for 299 euros, offers a capacitive multi-touch screen of 9.7 inches, a resolution of 1024x768, works on Android, has 16 GB of memory that can be expanded. It also includes aluminum housing, two cameras, 3 megapixels the rear and 2 megapixels the front. The CPU processes at 1 GHz and has a RAM of 1 GB. Although for me The great opportunity of this tablet is in the contents that will be installed through PaquitoLand and that if I were a developer I would already be asking conditions, requirements, revenue formulas and types of content demanded. The key to the tablet is not the hardware but what can work on them and if there is something attractive behind the door to which they give access. We must be very attentive to Imaginarium and expect them to become a leading development platform in educational content.
And finally there is the iPad. I will not mention anything about him because in Peques and Más we do not stop publishing applications designed for him or for the iPhone. It seems to me that it is the device that can be seen the most, everywhere, even on the seashore! and I think it has put all the manufacturers in line. Although the key, as I said is the ecosystem that generates around it. IPad prices exceed 350 euros, in its most veteran versions, although the second-hand market ensures competitive prices.
With all this offer in the market, with three clear winners worldwide, Google, Apple and Amazon, I find it very difficult that only one can remain and become standard. Each family will have to choose, if they want a new screen at home, in addition to whether they are willing to consume content.
I have already commented that making a family go to the cinema to watch a movie with popcorn and drink consumes more than 30% of what a basic tablet costs, which as we have seen ensures entertainment, leisure and learning in children. And also a lot of enthusiasm in the developers to make live, cheerful and interesting applications for the whole family.
