When looking for a tablet that best suits our needs, we not only take into account that it has excellent features that manufacturers improve with each new release, but we also look for devices that fit our pockets and have good performance. relationship between quality and price. Another factor to take into account is the use that we are going to give to our new terminals. Until recently, we thought that cheap was synonymous with poor quality, and this statement also had its place in the field of tablets, where we found devices that In addition to being expensive, they left much to be desired. However, in a context in which the competition is fierce and in which brands must constantly renew themselves to ensure that their models survive, strategies change and now, despite the fact that we continue to find supports that are at the top both in price and features, we also find other terminals that, with a more affordable cost, offer us good specifications. Here we show you some of the best medium tablets as to speed and we will see how it is possible once again to create tools that, in addition to not wreaking havoc on our pockets, leave us with a good taste in our mouths.
Xiaomi MiPad, Chinese high speed
We start this list of cheap but fast tablets talking about Xiaomi. As we have mentioned on other occasions, this firm has sowed controversy among some technology experts and above all, Apple fans, who consider both the website and the products of this Chinese company to be plagiarized. But far from controversial, we highlight the MiPad, which with a screen of 7,9 inches and a resolution excellent of 2048 × 1536 pixelsa autonomy de 11 hours and a storage capacity of up to 128 GB, it has nothing to envy to the terminals of the Cupertino firm. its Nvidia Tegra processor 4-core and a 2,2 Ghz speed, make the MiPad one of the fastest media terminals. Its price, of $235 about, makes it a good alternative for those who want breakneck performances without worrying too much about cost.
ZenPad 8.0. Fast and balanced
Long ago we commented that the ZenPad 8.0 It is one of the best average tablets that we can find today. Asus has bet a lot on this device, ideal for those who want a terminal intended for leisure since in addition to a screen of 8 inches and a resolution of 2048 × 1536 pixels, a 4 GB RAM or with a 64GB storage Among other strengths, it has VisualMaster and SonicMaster technologies that provide unique video and audio experiences. With a Intel Atom processor with 4 cores and a frequency of 2,3 GHz and an approximate price of $200, the Taiwanese firm seeks to fulfill the statement that it launched together with this "custom-made luxury" device.
Made in Spain: BQ Tesla
If the Asus model tries to attract an audience that uses its tablets for leisure, the terminal of the Spanish firm intends to gain a foothold in the professional sector with features such as an operating system Windows 10a 2 GB RAM or with a storage of but also 64, and the incorporation of Office package full. A Intel Atom 4-core processor, and a speed of 1,83 Ghz, as well as a GPU powerful of seventh generation, 650 Mhz and also from Intel they try to offer a complete device that nevertheless lacks in terms of image performance with a good, but modest resolution of 1280 × 800 pixels for a 10.1-inch panel. It has a cost of $259 if purchased from BQ's own website.
Amazon Fire: Small but powerful
Finally, we highlight the tablet that Amazon launched on the market a few months ago, Fire which, in addition to surprising by its size, 7 inches, it also does it for its price, $60. Although it does not have outstanding display properties such as a 1024 × 600 pixel resolution, and a limited autonomy of approximately 7 hours, this terminal has other strengths such as a storage Up to 128 GB via Micro SD cards and a 4 Ghz 1,3-core processor that make it a model with a good value for money to which we cannot demand much more for its low cost.
As we have seen, it is possible to create affordable terminals with good features. Speed has become one of the aspects that users value most not only when buying new tablets but also when purchasing new devices regardless of the support to which they belong. However, the key does not go through creating fast models but that these are balanced, affordable and, at the same time, that they offer good features in every way that allow consumers to enjoy their devices and make them more present in their day-to-day lives. 2015 closes with an important leap in some of these specifications that already anticipate the path that the new products that will hit the market in 2016 will follow.
After knowing some of the tablets with the best performance for less than 300 euros, do you think that they are good alternatives or that, however, the companies that manufacture them should think about developing more compensated terminals? You have more information available about other models for less than 250 euros that can also be very attractive for those who are still looking for a good relationship between quality and price when acquiring new devices and where Chinese firms play a leading role.
