niceeric: I don't agree link a benchmark that supports your theory. The Surface Pro 2 is smaller than the Sony VAIO Duo 13 and on some benchmarks it outperforms the VAIO. They have the exact same CPU/GPU combo. |

Tablet PC cannot be compared with Laptops or any computer system, they can't do half of what a laptop can do. Only people who use their laptop to browse can compare laptop and tablet pc. |

niceeric: Surface Pro 2/3 use the Intel HD4400 which is about 20% faster than the HD4000. You might want to research further |
Re: Tablet PC Vs Laptop: Which Side Are You On? by Fulaman198(m): 9:23pm On Jul 12, 2014 |
niceeric: What are you saying ultra books often come with HD4400 or HD5000 Intel graphics. What you are talking about is a gaming laptop. Which does have a dedicated GPU. You are talking about heavy laptops like the Lenovo Y510p |

Fulaman198:good now we're getting there.....so is there a gaming tablet yet?....we all know intel hd cards are just mere display cards they play only fifa lol....so a tablet with a dedicated GPU with memory of atleast 2gb is?.............give an answer and i'll agree laptops can be compared with tablets |

Bigsteveg: Dude follow me properly. We are talking of portability not what businesses are doing. You say having an external drive defeats portability I say how much does a tablet and external drive weigh compared to a laptop? Plus there are laptops without optical drives so are they useless because of that? |
Re: Tablet PC Vs Laptop: Which Side Are You On? by Nobody: 9:41pm On Jul 12, 2014 |
Leopantro: Yep and the price has drooped significantly. It's now $899 here for the 13.3 It also supports dual monitor without any extra hardware, so I have two external 24" monitors plus the native 13.3 when I work in my home office. Now, the hard drive size is 120GB (you can go up to 250GB) but it's an SSD so boot up is under 7 seconds to login into a website. I still have over 80GB free since I use DropBox, Box, iCloud, Google Drive, Amazon Drive, Microsoft drive, etc plus an external dual 2 terabyte drive (synced) for storage. |

Bigsteveg: Globally many fortune 500 companies gives their employees a budget and then allow them to choose their hardware, The truth is that you can always run any application on any hardware once you establish a Citrix session. In the past I deployed over 5,000 iPads to Physicians who used them in emergency room for my company. They did the tests on Toshiba tablets but I convinced them to switch to iPads once I took over the project. Desktops used to be cheaper but now you have laptops/tablets/ChromeBooks that are dirt cheeps and organizations are realizing this. 1 Like |

It depends on 1's choice. I ave a laptop(Dell) and tablet(Asus). Though my tablet is also a mini laptop because its keyboard is detachable (Asus TF600TG)... |

all4naija: I like hybrid! Me too. Laptops have always been the device of choice for power users but the truth is that tablets are presently seeing a steady growth in capabilities, so much so that in a few years even power users will see little need to use their laptops in place of their tablets.... So till that time arrives hybrids and 2-in-1s are in that sweet spot. The best of both worlds as I mentioned earlier. |

LordReed: Yeah technology is moving at a very fast pace. It's amazing that the things we take for granted today were science fiction just a few years back. I remember my Motorola brick phone and compare it to my iPhone 5s of today. |

' But the whole package weighs a whopping 4.2 pounds and just barely fits in a regular-size backpack. It’s a lap-gaming experience; you’d never want to hold the Edge-with-GamePad upright for more than a minute at a time. Also, services like Steam generally require an online connection ( Update: Steam has an "offline mode," but it's not all that easy to set up and use.). On a train or some in-flight situation, that could put the Edge in a difficult spot.' PS:it plays bf4 at medium settings while most graphics rendering settings are off even with it's bulk.... |

Flawlessangel: My pos t is not meant as an argument but educative to someone that may not know. I have both mini iPad and Samsung Tab3. I have USB connector for the Samsung and the Apple connector for the iPad thetas enables me to connect thumb drives, SD cards and external SSD. I hardly use them as that is another device to carry and instead just use Cloud storage. I'm a firm believer of using the right tool for the job and if a laptop is your hammer then so be it, but that doesn't mean that a tablet can't also hammer as good as a laptop. I have iMac and MacAir (both running OSX, Windows 8.1 and Linux), mini iPad, Netbook (running Windows and Linux) so the one I carry is the one that fits the work I do. For games I have PS3 and Wii (never got into Xbox). |

I don't need to say much anymore....the tech savvy guys around here who know d use of a laptop would know that a dedicated keyboard,3/4 usb ports,an hdmi port,an ethernet port,a good cooling vent,a very nice xbox 360 controller,a dedicated nvidia/amd ati graphics card, et cetera cannot be traded for a stone let alone a tablet I own a note 2014 though but I know it's a tablet and I wont push it so hard and I like d fact it's an android....my envy remains my only laptop. Final shot, I remain a laptop though more of a desktop lover(currently building my ultimate pc) and i'll rest my case comfortably here. 1 Like |
