Download or read book Android Tablet 101 written by Paolo Jose De Luna and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-10-23 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Android OS is one of the most powerful operating systems for the mobile device. Fighting it out neck to neck against the Apple's iOS and being light years ahead from the other operating systems for the mobile, the Android still manages to stand out from the rest because of its versatility, customizability, and sense of identity as you make your device truly something that's "yours" to begin with. The true strength of the Android lies in the number of diverse apps that it has available on the Google Play Store. With thousands of apps available at the Play Store, most available as free downloads, the possibilities are endless when it comes to customizing the Android OS. While the Android OS is common for smartphones, it also displays its strength for the tablets. Because of its versatility and wider girth, the tablet is much suited for making video calls, playing games, surfing the Internet, and managing files. Without a proper OS, all of these activities are laid to waste and a tablet is turned into a piece of metal and plastic without any significant use. However, the Android OS manages to take things up a notch by turning the tablet into something more colorful, versatile, and comfortable to operate. With the variety of applications and peripherals that you can attach to a tablet, the things that you can do with it are endless. The Google Play Store is a grand haven wherein there are hundreds of thousands of applications that you can download. These apps are then separated into several categories like games, productivity, personalization, books, communication, and a whole lot more. If you've visited the Play Store at least once, you'll know how vast the availability of these apps is. While there are a lot of apps in the Play Store that come as free to download, some of them include in-app purchases - meaning, you can choose to pay for certain downloads within the app for a price while still being able to download the app for free. There are also other apps that come as paid apps, only being downloaded after paying for a fee. But what's great about this is that once you download an app in the Play Store, you can download the paid app on ALL of your Android devices! That's how extensive and how flexible the Android OS can get. In this book, you'll get to know how you can take advantage of the Android OS on your Android tablet. You'll get to learn the best peripherals that you can get that are compatible for the Android OS, the best ways on how you can optimize the Android OS, and the best apps and games that you can download for your Android tablet. But is there any way to push things even further? With that, the answer is a loud and resounding "YES". How? Then read on and explore on how you can maximize and optimize using your Android tablet.
