Tablets have advanced considerably in the last few years, making them ideal for anything from working to playing games on these days.
These are the top tablets for the latter activity, whether you prefer to play things like roulette at online casino sites like iPhoneCasino.com.au or games with high end graphics like Asphalt 8.
Surface Pro 3 (£769)
This is the third try that Microsoft has had at producing a tablet that offers the same power as a laptop computer, and the Intel Core i3/i5/i7 graphics processor contained within it gives brilliant performance even for the graphics of Asphalt 8, Mortal Kombat 5 and other graphics-rich games. Furthermore, the 12-inch LCD screen display with resolution levels of 2610 x 1440 means that you get both size and crystal clear image quality. A negative point is the price.
Apple iPad Air 2 ($449.99)
This has a screen of 9.7 inches, coupled with 1536 x 2048 pixels resolution (and 264-ppi) making it the most impressive tablet yet produced by Apple, when it comes to the visual side of gaming.
This makes it the best way to enjoy iOS games such as Infinity Blade III, while it also offers a decent battery lifespan and light, thin body – making it a good tablet for long games like online casino poker.
Nvidia Shield ($299.99)
This is rated by many as the finest tablet for gaming, and the Tegra K1 processor certainly means that the performance level is superb – even for detailed graphics in Modern Combat 5: Blackout and similar games.
The cost is quite reasonable as well, while 16 GB storage certainly lets you keep plenty of games on it, while 1920 x 1200 resolution is also decent. The downside is that the screen is just 8 inches.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 (£299)
This has one of the best screen displays – 10.5 inches of AMOLED HD magic – meaning everything from Angry Birds to Asphalt 8 will look great on it. Furthermore the thin, lightweight body (467g) is very comfortable to hold, however long you are gaming on it, while the Krait 400 graphics processor is also excellent. This definitely represents a superb gaming choice.
Google Nexus 9 ($387)
This comes with the cutting edge Android 5.0 Lollipop operating system, which allows for fluid switching between different games apps. The 8.9-inch screen is not bad for both simple casino games and the likes of Modern Combat 5 with detailed graphics, while resolution levels of 1536 x 2048 are another plus.
Any of these five tablets would make a good choice for gaming on, but the Galaxy Tab S from Samsung wraps up solid gaming specs in a very affordable package.
