BlackBerry PlayBook Brings the Best of BlackBerry to Tablets

Posted: Mar 12, 2011 |Comments: 0 |

The tablet PC segment is estimated that every single manufacturer is focusing on, even though they might not have been familiar with this segment prior to the launch of the Apple iPad. However, the success of the Apple iPad has totally changed the way people used to perceive the tablet PC. Now, previously unknown companies in this segment are now launching their own tablet PCs. Research in Motion is the company that will be making its entry into the tablet PC and it will be doing so through the Blackberry PlayBook. This is the Tablet PC that will be bringing all the best in terms of the Apple iPad, but in a smaller and more portable version.

This seems to be the separating factor between the Apple iPad and the Blackberry PlayBook. This is possible in the Blackberry PlayBook due to the presence of a 7 inch touch screen display. This touch screen display will be similar to the Apple iPad's 9.7 inch display in terms of every other feature apart from the size. Hence, you will be getting the same amount of user interface and external controls that you used to get with the Apple iPad, but in a much more user friendly manner. The 7 inch display has massively improved the portability of the tablet PC and the Blackberry PlayBook is the latest tablet PC to benefit from this display size. The other options of the Blackberry PlayBook seem to be similar to the Apple iPad and one such example has to be the memory.

Only the internal memory is available on the Blackberry PlayBook and it will be three different options that are very similar to the Apple iPad, 16 GB, 32 GB and 64 GB. The Blackberry PlayBook will not be having any additional slots for adding more memory in the future. The Blackberry PlayBook will be running on an entirely new operating system and this is the party piece of the tablet PC from BlackBerry. It will be the QNX-based operating system that is more or less similar to the BlackBerry OS 6.0, which was recently released for the BlackBerry phones. Due to the usage of this operating system, syncing the Blackberry PlayBook with a BlackBerry is extremely easy. It is something that will be making this new Blackberry PlayBook look extremely appealing for the business users.

However, the new Blackberry PlayBook will be best used when used in the entertainment mood because it has a lot of features to cater to this need. One thing that will be doing this exactly will be the five megapixel camera located in the rear of the tablet PC. It will be capable of 1080 p video recording option, which is probably seen in the Tablet PC segment for the first time. The Blackberry PlayBook will be coming with a dual core 1 GHz processor that is capable of running this whole tablet PC in the best way. The Blackberry PlayBook has just been announced for the UK market from Q2.
