Smartphones and tablets together(phablets) or separate


Guys what do you think of the new famous Phablets(which are phones with 5or 5.5 inch screens) ?
do you like them since it's having a tablet and smartphone in just one device or you prefer them
separately( a 4inch smartphone and a 10 inch tablet) ?


Personally I love the concept but I have them separately by destiny since I got my recent I phone 6 months before the 6 plus was released and just changed my iPad last month but as soon as I can I'm gonna get the 6 plus.

I really like the concept. But since there's danger of cellphone snatching here, I'm considering buying a separate mobile and tablet. Cheap mobile for outdoor use. A good tablet for indoor use :-)

Nothing is impossible, the word itself says I'm possible.

Sounds crazy but yes actually it's cheaper getting them separately.

Right now the 7 inch Galaxy tab is actually 149 or something like that and you get small smartphone and you are perfectky fine. Having them together is kind of a luxury.

You can also do it Woth Apple you get the 5s and the iPad mini or air 1 and its a better deal in price

Indeed. Yet people still look at me like I suggested they go kiss a poisonous snake, lol. And you know if the tablet goes out of commission, atleast your phone is still working and vice versa. But I understand if you have a lot of waiting time outside(at the bus while going to work or after), you don't need a big tablet with you and other people sneaking glances watching what you're doing.

Lol yes and never thought about this advantage before but so true, getting separte is protecting your self to not loosing two devices in one and cheaper to replace them as well.

I love phablets and I really want one : the IPhone 6plus to be exact but I don't mind having my iPad and my iPhone sperately, well sometimes when I go to the office and won't get back home soon then it's when I wished my phone had a bigger screen.

reply

Haha...yes that's the thing. That's why people just go for a larger mobile than two separate things. It's so they won't get bored.

So true.

Well after much hair pulling research, I think I may go for Galaxy Note 3 Neo. The poor man's galaxy note.But that's okay, it's my first note with a pen so I feel like I should start with something less expensive.

I really tried the whole tablet and cheap cellphone thing, but looks like retailers here are smarter. All the good quality and 2GB tablets available here are above my price range. And the cheaper ones just won't do for me.

That's a great choice.
Put your review when you get it I'm curious to know more about the Galaxy snd see if it's a good option to maybe get a small tablet for when I go to work and get home late.

I have my iPad but it's a little too big for my purse.
