Things To Consider Before Buying Your Next Tablet

Are you thinking about purchasing a new tablet for you or your family?  If so here are several things to consider before buying your next tablet, plus some reasons the Nokia Lumia 2520 is great for me. 

What features are important to you

Before purchasing your tablet, be sure to think about which features will benefit you and your family the most.  Features that might make my like easier, or help me become more productive while I am traveling might not be the same features that are important to someone else.  The Nokia Lumia 2520 is a great device don’t get me wrong, but remember you have choices – VerizonWireless.com has plenty of different tablets, with different features. 

What is the tablet going to be used for?

It’s not likely you will purchase the same tablet for your to work with, and the kids to play games on.  Think about why you are going to use it, before grabbing your next tablet.

What Operating System

We all have our favorite operating system, and you know I a Windows girl.  The Nokia Lumia 2520 comes with Windows 8.1 RT, and has been GREAT!  I have used my Nokia Lumia on my Disney Cruise, and it’s been great to work from since I can easily access everything I need with Windows 365.

Size and appearance

Tablets come in plenty of different sizes, shapes, and colors.  Be sure to consider what you will be suing it for, so you can choose a tablet that is the perfect size. 

The Nokia Lumia 2520 is the perfect size.  It fits into my handbag, yet is big enough to actually work with.  Plus, like all Nokia devices it’s hot!

What Apps Ya Want?

Lets face it, apps are important. They make our lives easier, more fun, convenient, and even help us pass the time.  If you are like me one of the first things you do after opening a device is downloading the apps you need.  Windows has wonderful choice of apps, and the Windows App Store keeps growing. 

Plus, I just love that Windows 8 devices do such an awesome job with providing users with the computing experience across all their devices.  Microsoft Office makes working accross all my Windows devices easy!

Software Included

Should your new tablet come with any certain software?

I have used my Nokia Lumia smartphones enough that I know what things I like, and I love the software that comes with the Nokia Lumia 2520, like:

  • Nokia Camera
  • Nokia Storyteller
  • Dreamworks Dragons Adventure
  • HERE Maps
  • My Nokia
  • Nokia Video director
  • Nokia Music
  • And more.

Battery

What is the battery life like?  The last thing you want is to charge your device all the time.

The battery life in the Nokia Lumia 2520 is GREAT! You can get up to 10 hours of battery life.  Oh, and don’t forget how fast this bad boy charges up.  Did you know is about an hour the Lumia 2520 should be almost 80% charged? 

Camera

How is the camera?  I don’t know about you, but I use my camera like a crazy person.  It’s an important feature, and the better the camera the better things are for me.

If it can have a camera, why not, especially a Nokia Lumia camera.  Whether you capture a video or a still image you can appreciate the primary camera sensor size of 6.7 MP, auto focus, 4 x digital zoom, ZEISS optics, 1/3.4 inch sensor, f/1.9 aperture, 26mm focal length, 10cm focus range, as well as video and still images capabilities.

The Nokia Lumia 2520 is the Perfect Tablet for Me!

I have really enjoyed the Lumia 2520 because of it’s awesome 10.1 full HD screen!  It’s the perfect size for not only me but my husband and kids.  The Nokia Lumia is great for my on-the-go lifestyle as well as sitting at home hanging with the kids.  The high-res FULL HD makes everything clear and easy to read, which also helps you see what you are working on indoors and.
