Best Budget iPad,, how to buy in Bangladesh

It seems that great budget android tab is not a real thing in 2019. Xiaomi has introduced the Mipad 4 on the mid 2018 and yet to introduce its successor. Samsung has a budget line of android tablet but neither of these is as good as the Apple iPad 9.7 inch. It is the cheapest iPad on the market. Though the latest version came in 2018 and its design is not as charming as the pro version. But, for the price this is tablet of recommendation. Obviously, Bangladesh is not a great place to buy Apple devices. You pay higher price for lower or no after sales service. But I recommend you to buy from US stores through backpackbang.com. The 32GB wifi version can be bought for as low as 25000 TK on a deal. But, if you want to buy from shop in Bashundhara City or Jamuna Future Park you can get it for around 35000 Tk.  If you want to buy from backpack you can check their website backpack.com and register for a gift voucher on your first order. 


Its key specs include:

  • 9.7-inch (diagonal) LED-backlit Multi-Touch display with IPS Technology
  • A10 Fusion chip with 64-bit architecture
  • Embedded M10 coprocessor
  • 1.2MP FaceTime HD camera
  • 8MP iSight camera
  • Touch ID
  • Apple Pay
  • iOS 11
  • Supports apple pencil

Best Budget Tablet to Buy in Bangladesh (Part-1)

What is the best tablet in Bangladesh to buy now? There are so many tablets available to buy in the market. But which one you should go for. The answer lies on several factors: 

First, what is your budget?
Second, what type of job you want to accomplish?
Third, what OS you comfortable with?
Fourth, what type of skill you have with tech?
Fifth, do you need a tab with cellular connectivity or just WiFi?
Sixth, does it have any official warranty available in Bangladesh?

I will try to find the answer in a series of articles.

At first we might take a look at the available budget tab in the market. The problem of choosing a tab in Bangladesh is a tough job. As we have only a few international brand officially available in Bangladesh. So, we will have to depend on the few officially available brands if we expect after sales service and warranty. Though, we have option to choose different tabs from different manufacturer in the international market at a very competitive price. You can bring quite easily through some reliable channel. So, be international let us dig into the main topic.

The best budget android? tablet is no doubt the Amazon Fire HD8. You read it write. The tab is excellent for the price. But not a flagship killer type of thing. It runs the customize android OS. Playstore and google services are not pre-installed. But google it it is not tough to install at all.

Key specs include:
                8" HD display; 16 or 32 GB of internal storage (up to 400 GB with microSD)
                1.3 GHz quad-core processor
                Up to 10 hours of battery life
                Alexa hands-free enabled
               1.5 GB of RAM
               2 MP front-facing camera + 2 MP rear-facing HD camera
               Dual-band Wi-Fi
     
The price? Only around 9000 TK.
But, wait you can get for around 5000 TK on a deal. Just keep an eye on amazon.com for a few months.
Till now I suggest you to bring this Kindle Fire HD8 from amazon through backpackbang.com
To know about their services you can visit their website.
You can register from the link backpackbang.com to have a 200 TK gift on your first order.

But, if you do not want to wait and buy just now you can buy from Bashundhara City or IDB Bhaban for 11000 to 12000 TK.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Price & Specs in Bangladesh

Galaxy Tab 4 is another budget tab from Samsung. It is available in Bangladesh for a price tag of 16,500 TK. If we look at its specs its just a decent device. There is no AMOLED screen or gorilla grass protection, the camera is only 3 MP, it neither runs the latest OS. There are so many cons of these tab. But, to  be frank in this price range you will hardly have a great tab from the renowned brand. So, for 16K budget I think its an worthy choice.

Samsung Galaxy Tab E Price & Specs in Bangladesh

Samsung Galaxy Tab E is an under powered budget (23,500 tk...!!!!) tab. I don't know why Samsung make these tabs. It comes with 8GB internal storage (only 5 GB is available for user), the main camera is only a 5MP shooter but no flash, the display is 157ppi (not so amazing) without any gorilla glass protection, the body is entirely plastic made. Thanks to Samsung that it has at least a 3G version available and the 9.6 inch display gives more space to work. I am not a hater of Samsung but certainly expect a stable and usable tab. In fact, Samsung Galaxy E is not the perfect tab for 23K budget.
