Best keyboard tablets

Tablets with the keyboard - convenient devices for work "anywhere". At any time they can be turned into a laptop to type text, edit a document or just free your hands. However, choosing a suitable tablet with a keyboard can be quite difficult. We found 7 models that will be a great helper in everyday work.

How to choose a tablet with a keyboard: the main criteria

The main characteristic that determines the usability of a tablet with a keyboard is the operating system installed on it. And most often in the budget and middle price segment there are models running Android and Windows.

1. Windows - the most convenient operating system for editing documents. So, if you need a “mobile office” to work anywhere, including writing reports or sending e-mail, you should choose models just under its control. However, Windows is poorly optimized for touch control - and in tablet mode it is simply inconvenient to use it.

2. Android is much more convenient when it comes to managing in tablet mode (from the touch screen). However, many familiar “desktop” applications in the version optimized for this operating system have very limited functionality and a strange control mechanism. Therefore, it is worth buying tablets with a keyboard on Android only if they are used for surfing the web, chatting on the Internet, etc.

The performance and speed of the tablet, in turn, depend on its technical characteristics. The most important are:

1. CPU generation. The chips used in tablets and laptops are very diverse, and therefore it will not be difficult to get lost in the cores, gigahertz and nanometers. The easiest way to determine processor performance is to specify its generation. The higher it is - the "fresher" the chip. And new versions of processors work quickly, heat up poorly and consume a minimum of electricity;

2. Processor family Chips for tablets and laptops are mainly produced by Intel. Its processors are divided into families. So, Atom is a solution for ultra-budget tablets (it doesn’t work very fast), Core M is a series for hybrid ultrabooks (they work fast, but they are expensive); Core I - desktop solution (cooling required). But it is better to refrain from buying a tablet on a Pentium or Celeron;

3. The amount of RAM. The more of it, the better. The minimum required in 2024 is 2 GB, optimally already 4-8 GB;

4. The amount of permanent memory. Similarly, operational, the more - the better. For devices with Windows 10, the required minimum is 32 GB, optimally 64-256 GB.

The rest of the technical characteristics such as battery life, mobile Internet support, resolution and screen diagonal should be chosen based on their preferences.

4Good T890i 3G 16Gb

Rating: 4.2

Why him: Ultra-budget Windows-tablet with a keyboard and support for 3G.

Description: A compact, ultra-budget tablet on the Windows operating system. But due to its small size and price, its technical characteristics leave much to be desired. Because of the hardware platform built on the Intel Atom Z3735G dual-core processor, which is complemented by 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal storage, the tablet is suitable for simple web surfing and editing documents in Word or similar programs.

But it is equipped with a 3G module that provides constant access to the mobile Internet. Therefore, it will be a good solution for freelancers or office professionals who need to "work on the go."

The tablet is equipped with a 8.9-inch IPS touch screen, which has a resolution of 1280 × 800 pixels. He also has two cameras (the main one is 5 MP, the front one is 2 MP) and a 4500 mAh battery, which provides up to 5 hours of battery life.

Rating: 4.7

Why first place in the ranking: Stylish, unique and high-performance.

Description: If you want not just a tablet with a keyboard, but a truly fashionable device, which, moreover, will have high performance, then you should definitely buy Lenovo Yoga Book. This hybrid laptop is equipped with a touchscreen on both sides - that is, instead of the usual keyboard, it has a huge glass panel with illuminated keys. By the way, it can be used instead of a graphic tablet or for handwritten notes. The corresponding stylus is included.

In terms of technical characteristics, everything is fine here too. The tablet is equipped with a quad-core Intel Atom X5-Z8550 processor with a clock frequency of 1.44 GHz and passive cooling, 4 GB of RAM and a high-speed SSD-drive 64 GB. The screen of the device is 10.1-inch IPS with a resolution of 1920 × 1200 pixels.

Why second place in the ranking: High-performance and relatively inexpensive tablet.

Description: HP x2 is a very good tablet for on-the-go work and anywhere. With a relatively low price, it offers technical specifications that allow Office to run, view web pages, and even edit simple images in CorelDraw, all at the same time.

In the selected configuration, it is equipped with a relatively fresh Intel Atom x5 Z8350 processor with two processing cores and a clock frequency of 1.44 GHz (as well as a passive cooling system); 4 GB of RAM and a 64 GB eMMC drive.

Why the third place in the ranking: The lightest and at the same time has an optimal performance.

Description: The Asus Transformer Book line includes hybrid subnotebooks with a detachable keyboard, and this model is no exception, although the youngest in the series. It was built on the same hardware platform as its predecessor - a dual-core Intel Atom x5 Z8350 processor with a clock frequency of 1.44 GHz, 2 GB of RAM and 64 GB on an internal eMMC drive.

We should also mention the battery life of the device. Due to a more capacious battery than its predecessor, it is about 10-11 hours. And all this is packaged in a plastic-metal case.
