Size of the Screen. Visual experience play a very important role in determining the quality of a product. This makes screen size a major feature to look for when buying either smartphone or a tablet. A perfect screen to some extend can overshadow the defects in a model. Screen is also the single most expensive and important hardware component in a smartphone and tablets. this including
Thickness and weight, is another important factor to be considered when buying a smart phone or tablet. Thickness is more of an aesthetic concern than anything else. Thinner devices don’t always lead to a quality product. So it’s up to you to decide if you want to sacrifice quality over aesthetic value. Some smartphones and tablets come in a metallic casing, which gives a quality look to the device. So do check it out in a store, rather than getting disappointed after buying the device.
Operating System, used by Smartphone or Tablet. OS that is used on a Smartphone or tablet is yet another major feature to be considered before you make a purchase. When it comes to OS that we use in our PC, we have the popular options to either go for Apple’s Macintosh, Microsoft Windows OS or the open source Linux. Windows OS is the winner here since it is very user friendly and got a huge choice of supporting applications and softwares to go with the OS. Similarly smartphones and tablets also runs on OS and the choices are Android OS, iOS, Microsoft Phone 7, Blackberry OS, webOS, Symbian etc. iOS is used only in Apple phones and tablets. Android OS is very popular and used in a wide range of models. Even though Windows phone is not as popular as Android, it is user friendliness and popularity is slowly capturing the smartphone and tablet os market.
Storage space, available in a Smartphone or Tablet. Most smartphone and tablet manufacturers these days are offering is from 16 GB storage capacity which is enough space for storing pics, songs and videos. However some users like to add additional memory to increase the storage capacity. Devices like Apple don’t come with a memory slot, but other tablets and smartphone comes with memory slots to add additional memory.
Connection Specifications. All tablets and smartphones are portable devices which need wireless for communication. wireless devices and they offer Wi-Fi connectivity to let you wirelessly connect to home and public networks. However some models offer 3G, 4G connectivity which helps in having an internet connection enabled SIM. This versions are generally expensive than the normal models and in order to enable 3G OR 4G connectivity, you need to sign up a contract with the service providers. Fortunately, the prices are coming down and it is affordable now a days to have a 3G or 4G in your smartphone or tablet.
my advice, if you are in Tanzania due to the challenges that facing network connectivity, its better to buy phone that support 3G for both lines (for double line phones).
Apps Compatibility. One of the important feature of a smartphone or tablet is the presence of Apps. It is similar to using application software in your PC.

Android also have 250,000 free and premium apps present. Other mobile OS also have apps available, but limited in numbers compared to iOS and Android. More the number of apps available, more options for you to find and install the right apps for your needs.
Camera Options. Almost all smartphones and all tablets come with an in built camera. Camera by default is a major feature that most customers check by default when buying mobile devices. It is a very useful feature especially when you are looking forward for recording memories and spur of the moment events. Its amazing to see the recent developments in mobile camera technology. Even cameras with 8MP are available with some tablet models. If you are not much of a capturing events on camera person, you can go for models without camera or camera with less MP to save some bucks.
camera size, here you should considering mega pixels of the camera (both side including front and back camera) best camera is at least from 13MP and above.
