TABLET PURCHASE AND ACCESSORIES

I have been considering a tablet purchase for a long time - smaller than a laptop, so easier to carry around (and I can probably fit it in one of my day bags), yet bigger than a phone if I want to watch films or TV programmes or read a book or magazine. As I am getting older I find that the larger size screen is better anyway!!

But which one to choose? The main competitor to Samsung is obviously the Apple IPad, but I am not necessarily seduced by advertising and peer pressure so looked at the new Galaxy Note 8.

Samsung's Galaxy Note 8 tablet is now available to buy in the UK.

 

But what good is a tablet without accessories?!!

I personally need at least a good cover to protect the tablet from the usual day to day knocks and a means of resting my tablet if I want to read books (which I do frequently whilst waiting for my children to finish whatever activity they are participating in which means I have to wait in the car!).

My first choice for phone and tablet accessories is always GearZap. They offer a wide selection of accessories and have just launched a range of accessories for the Galaxy Note 8.

The covers come in five colours – dark grey, white, berry pink, lime green and garnet red. As fashion trends at the moment are for neon brights, the lime green one would be ideal.

The desk dock is a great idea as it puts the tablet at a good reading angle which is comfortable for reducing eye strain if using the tablet as an e-reader. There is also a vehicle dock if you are thinking of using the tablet as your sat nav.

As you expect with Gearzap the prices are extremely competitive and their delivery service is fast and efficient.
