Description and Features of Phablet


As our smartphones continue to grow in size, with the latest screens pushing close to five inches, a new class of device has arrived – the “phablet”.
What exactly is a phablet? It’s a device that is too large to be considered a phone but too small to be considered a tablet. As a general rule of thumb, this covers devices that have a screen size between 5 and 7 inches.

The first such device of this size is the Samsung GALAXY Note. With a screen size of 5.3 inches, it fits squarely in the phablet category.
A Phablet makes a good phone
The Note runs Android 2.3, so it can do all of the things a normal smartphone does. It can make phone calls, send text messages, browse the web, run apps from the Google Play store, and take pictures. It also comes with a stylus, or pen if you like, that lets you write on the screen for better input precision (it gives the phone a bit of a nostalgic feel, bringing back the old days of the Palm Treo). Samsung has also included some apps that make special use of the pen.
As a tablet – not so much
While the device does have a lot of extra screen real estate, it’s not as expansive as a tablet. The larger size does make browsing the web, reading documents and watching videos more enjoyable, but it’s not as good as the experience you’ll get on a tablet.
