iPad vs. Kindle, which is better as an ebook reader


This is a real tough question, iPad or Kindle? The iPad has some really good advantages such as the applications and the built in microphone. And the Amazon Kindle also has some advantages such as the dictionary, the keyboard and the eBook reader. So, which one’s better, iPad or Kindle?

Readability: Winner Amazon Kindle

Even though the iPad’s IPS LCD screen has technically contrasts a lot more than the Kindle, it manages an excellent way of reading, even through direct sunlight. And the lack of a 60Hz refresh rate makes it easier on the eyes over many hours.

Graphics: Winner Apple iPad

After a win by the Amazon Kindle, I have to say the Kindle has pretty rubbish graphics. It just makes any old newspaper like a technological triumph. For magazines and other stuff like that, the Kindle truly can’t compare.

Portability: Winner Amazon Kindle

I have to admit they’re both really good and they can both fit even in a packed schoolbag, but when it comes to compare, the Kindle wins by miles! Measuring only 0.34 inches and 8.7 ounces, the Kindle makes the 0.5 inch-thick and 24 ounce iPad feel really heavy.

Battery Life: Winner Amazon Kindle

The iPad itself holds an impressive amount of 10hrs of charge, but to read a book it’s not enough and to charge it up again it will take another 10hrs. However, the Amazon Kindle holds up to a mammoth amount of 10 DAYS! And the 3G? Three weeks.

Library: Winner Apple iPad

You could count forever comparing Apple’s iTunes book library to Amazon’s Kindle library, but the simple fact is this: The Kindle can only access Amazon’s library, the iPad can access Apple’s iTunes store, the Amazon Kindle store, Barnes & Noble’s Nook library, and more, all through apps.

Price: Winner Amazon Kindle
The Kindle is sold at a price of $139 for a Wi-Fi only version, and $189 for a version with lifetime 3G access for downloading books on the go. The cheapest Wi-Fi iPad runs for $499, and the 3G $629 plus data charges of at least $15 monthly by AT&T.

Overall Winner: Amazon Kindle

Ok, yes it’s true. The Amazon Kindle is better than the iPad in reading books. But that’s only in reading books, don’t forget.
Samsung Galaxy Tab vs. Apple iPad

iPad
Obviously most people are thinking “Well it’s an iPad, of course it’s better.” Well Samsung has unleashed a new power……. The NEW Samsung Galaxy Tab!
But how does it do against the iPad, well….


Display: Winner Apple iPad

The iPad incorporates a touch-sensitive IPS display that measures 9.7 inches across. It is undoubtedly an amazing screen, boasting a resolution of 768 x 1,024 pixels.
Samsung has gone for a slightly smaller display in the Galaxy Tab but it still is an impressive amount of 7 inches. All in all, the Galaxy Tab is 600 x 1,024 pixels o it makes the iPad win this round. And of course, it’s HD!

Size & Weight: Winner Samsung Galaxy Tab

Despite its size, the Apple iPad measures 242.8 x 189.7 x 13.4 mm and weighs 680g altogether (it feels a lot lighter when you put it on your hands). With its 7-inch display, the Galaxy Tab is obviously a lot smaller.
Samsung's quoted dimensions are 190.09 x 120.45 x 11.98mm, which makes it thinner than Apple's device. The Galaxy Tab weighs 380g so it is nearly half the iPad’s weight.

We say that it is a draw because The Galaxy Tab is more portable, has Android, is a better book and has a video caller. The iPad is HD ready, got a better system and is the bigger version of the Galaxy Tab. It is supposed to be a computer without a keyboard that has things like apps as well as the iPhone.

Wireless: Winner Samsung Galaxy Tab

This is considering you buy the simple WiFi+3G iPad. Galaxy has arguably better connectivity and you can make phone calls and send and receive SMS/MMS and there is very good wireless and Bluetooth.

Storage: Winner Galaxy Tab (Let’s call it a draw)

Both Products have many options depending on how much you want to spend.

Camera: Galaxy Tab (obviously iPad doesn’t have one)

Though the new iPad coming out after Christmas will have one plus much, much more.

Overall Decision: Draw

We say that it is a draw because The Galaxy Tab is more portable, has Android, is a better book and has a video caller. The iPad is HD ready, got a better system and is the bigger version of the Galaxy Tab. It is supposed to be a computer without a keyboard that has things like apps as well as the iPhone.

They’ve both got good stuff in it and the decisions are often controversial, However, if you ask me, I would by the iPad after Christmas because of the iPad’s beautiful design and its sheer simplicity both in the design and in the OS. Plus there will be many additions (We’ll post this later). But that’s just me!
