Worse is even the #Tablet market: #Android #Tablets may be plentyful if you just go sheer listings, but in terms of #MarketShare they are negigible in "the global north" and thus not interesting for #developers to even bother adapting or testing for unless they themselves are #GAFAMs.
Whereas on #iPadOS you get AA+ and #IndieGames worth their money by a long shot.
And that's why there are only #PayToLoose / #P2L aka. "#PayToWin" / #P2W games for #Android as #piracy is rampant and statistically noone is willing to pay for a #OneTimePurchase #Game on that platform.

@JessTheUnstill @bohwaz @punkfairie @ajsadauskas @tomiahonen @fuchsiii Exactly...
Coincidentially, that's why #Android (and #iOS) doesn't let users have #root access because billions of devices owned by mostly "#TechIlliterates" that hardly get #SecurityUpdates would be an even bigger risk if they didn't boot a locked-down #ROM image, thus only allowing for #malware in user-privilegued userspace!
Cuz having a mobile OS that shoves everything through #Tor and only allows #userspace-Apps in the form modern web technologies would be a big #security and #privacy gain.
#FollowerPower: Or does anyone know any #Android #Tablet that supports native #PhoneCalls & #SMS from it like a #Smartphone using it's built-in #WWAN / #4G / #5G modem that isn't some random chinese import brand like "#Crosscall" or something but actually reputable in delivering #security #updates post-launch?
It's for an eldery person who doesn't have the best eyesight anymore and just want to have something better than the overpriced #Doro / #Gigaset devices that are tiny.
Does anyone know where in central #SouthWesternOntario (#kitchener , #waterloo, #waterlooregion @waterlooregion ) to #donate still working - just old - #cellphones, #tablets?
Sometime in the past I gave a bunch to an org that got them to women's #shelters and refugee new arrivals but I can't remember who that was.
heise+ | Android-Tablet im Test: Lenovo Yoga Tab Plus mit Tastatur und Stift
Das Top-Tablet von Lenovo taugt nicht nur zum Spielen und Surfen, sondern auch zum Arbeiten. Mit Zubehör konkurriert es preislich mit der Android-Spitzenklasse.
@nomeata I miss #PixelQi and their #Transflective screens.
I've already seen #eInk monitors, but they are exensive af (espechally given their specs!)...
Coming out of my sabbatical a bit.
New iPads are out.
Unfortunately Apple scrapped the A17 Pro plans for entry level iPad after they could not get the price down low. Instead, focus will be on optimizing Apple Intelligence to run on A16 device.
What are the best graphics drawing tablets that work on Linux? Are there some that work better on KDE than other desktop environments?

@viq @spacewizard Or have a device with #SolderedDown #storage, like all currently built #Macs and #Tablets do...
Is anyone using the Starlite Linux tablet by Starlabs, or have an opinion on it? I am in need of a new daily driver tablet and would like to go full Linux, if possible.
[#TLDR: JUST TELL ME IF YOUR TABLET CAN DO #CALLS!]
#DearVendors of #Android-#Tablets:
Off all the #Functions you can put into a #Specifications Sheet of your Devices there's one you should ALWAYS answer clearly on your #Website:
DOES YOUR TABLET [with #4G / #5G / …) SUPPORT MAKING PHONE CALLS?
Like: IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK TO HAVE THAT INFO IN THE SPECSHEETS?
You're obviously able to list all the #Codecs natively supported and the user-available storage as well as supported Frequency Bands, WWAN modes, WiFi channel width and the Display Glass vs. Panel dimensions including DPI of the latter and whether or not it has a hall effect sensor to detect your overpriced 1st party tablet covers!
Now some folks may ask: "WHY does this matter?" or outright dismiss this as a problem.
Listen:
Not everyone is able or willing to carry two devices when 1 SHOULD BE ENOUGH and also some places (i.e. #Turkey) have #ImportRestrictions re: #MobileDevices, so having more than 1 #IMEI is already a "NOPE!" by the authorities.
So why do NONE of the #Tablet manufacturers allow to #search or #filter for that???
NO, instead one has to download an obscenely huge #PDF just to then read on page 34 that for any "#telephony" function you NEED YET ANOTHER DEVICE FROM THE SAME MANUFACTURER AND HAVE TO SIGNUP WITH AN ACCOUNT and even that level of #abuse WON'T GUARANTEE THAT IT WORKS...
Pretty shure A LOT of other folks have the same question and ain't willing to get yet another device & #SIM just to recieve the occasional call because #TechIlliterates can't be assed to send an #eMail or learn #XMPP+#OMEMO to message one...
