that will truly enhance my basic web browsing and video watching needs

2017-02-19 15:54:52 UTC  

I just need to spend more

2017-02-19 15:54:55 UTC  

One of the Chuwi tablets

2017-02-19 15:55:21 UTC  

I mean, the problem isn't really the hardware with most tablets.

2017-02-19 15:55:23 UTC  

It's the fucking bloat

2017-02-19 15:56:41 UTC  

yeah pretty much bloat

2017-02-19 15:56:50 UTC  

I got an ipad mini too

2017-02-19 15:56:58 UTC  

If they release a barebones super minimal version of android

2017-02-19 15:57:03 UTC  

FOr your tablet

2017-02-19 15:57:06 UTC  

It would fly.

2017-02-19 15:57:06 UTC  

but good luck trying to figure out how to DRAG AND DROP GODDAMN VIDEO FILES

2017-02-19 15:57:19 UTC  

otherwise it would have been the best tablet choice

2017-02-19 16:15:27 UTC  

I keep thinking about a tablet but then I pass up the idea.

2017-02-19 16:22:31 UTC  

what will you use it for?

2017-02-19 16:22:40 UTC  

there's a reason tablet sales are sinking

2017-02-19 16:22:47 UTC  

people cant find a good reason to use them

2017-02-19 16:22:58 UTC  

only old people use them to check their emails and to watch memes on youtube

2017-02-19 16:23:07 UTC  

and kids to play tappity tap games

2017-02-19 16:23:27 UTC  

but i assume you're an intelligent person who goes on /g/ and thus cannt fathom why anyone would use such a simplified device

2017-02-19 16:23:35 UTC  

it's essentially just another screen

2017-02-19 16:24:06 UTC  

iPad sales are pretty ok, its just Android sales that are low

2017-02-19 16:24:26 UTC  

iPad sales because aple is a meme and their customers are a part of a cult

2017-02-19 16:24:46 UTC  

Android tablets dont sell because the OS is simply not good for tablets

2017-02-19 16:24:57 UTC  

feels like using a huge phone

2017-02-19 16:25:03 UTC  

ChromeOS will hopefully change this

2017-02-19 16:25:13 UTC  

why would it

2017-02-19 16:25:20 UTC  

i can find multiple uses for proper tablet

2017-02-19 16:25:27 UTC  

sadly their performance is shit

2017-02-19 16:25:32 UTC  

so no "proper" there yet

2017-02-19 16:25:37 UTC  

is there a tablet with limux? gnome seems pretty good for tablets?!

2017-02-19 16:25:41 UTC  

ChromeOS is a more suitable OS for bigger screens

2017-02-19 16:26:05 UTC  

you can instal ubuntu on most X86 tablets afaik ?

2017-02-19 16:26:07 UTC  

with proper touch and keyboard support and think it will go great

2017-02-19 16:26:24 UTC  

what multiple uses can you find with tablets

2017-02-19 16:26:26 UTC  

im curious

2017-02-19 16:26:50 UTC  

media devices for home automation (As control point)

2017-02-19 16:27:07 UTC  

like its way nicer to web browse, watch movies, jewtube and stuff than on a phone

2017-02-19 16:27:14 UTC  

with a small screen

2017-02-19 16:27:24 UTC  

work tool (As my phone now is for multiple fields from security testing to 3D editing to food recipes)

2017-02-19 16:27:49 UTC  

proper replacement for netbooks if they they had more performance

2017-02-19 16:28:14 UTC  

their light weight and formfactor make them idylic for carry-around stuff
