Smartphone VS Tablet

Ok so my phone is like 4 years old with a qwerty keyboard and is only good for calling and texts. It is nothing special but it serves its purpose. A lot of people I know have been trying to tell me I should get a smartphone, because you can do so much on them. The camera is usually amazing, and you can access the internet. Well I was thinking I might get a tablet for all of my on the go work I do and just keep my current phone. So I decided to compare the 2 and share my discovery. 


Smartphone Pros:
  • Small enough to go anywhere, fits the palm of your hand
  • Cool apps 
  • Continues functioning as my text/calling device
  • They are the "in" thing
  • Wifi
  • Long battery life and holds a good long charge
Smartphone Cons:
  • Expensive not only do you buy the phone but have to pay the monthly plan cost to
  • Small screen
  • Site Compatibility (some sites web versions stink)
  • System upgrades are a pain
  • Some freeze a lot
  • Memory fills fast
Tablet Pros:
  • Just like a small computer
  • One time purchase payment
  • Easy to blog on the go
  • Ethernet or Wifi functions
  • Can use an app to text
  • Smaller than my laptop
Tablet Cons:
  • Too large to fit in your pocket
  • Battery doesn't last as long as a phone
  • Delicate
As you can see I don't have much bad stuff to say about tablets. And being my frugal self I would not be paying 6 or 7 hundred dollars I found some excellent deals on ebay for some really nice tablets for only 50-80 bucks!  Here is the one I have been thinking of buying on ebay!
