London (UK PRWEB) July 5, 2011

the customers’ point of view on the tablets are positively overwhelming. DigitalMR measured on a ¼ million positive comments for slate devices through January to June 2011, compared to just over 100 000 negatives. Apple has a dominant 48% share of these positive comments and 52% of the smaller group of negative comments. Next placed is Motorola with 16% of positive mentions and 18% negative.


The results are based on comments posted by consumers on major brands of tablets made by Apple, Motorola, Samsung, Blackberry, HTC, LG, Barnes and Nobles, ASUS, Archos and Viewsonic, through January-June 2011.

The analysis of DigitalMR (powered by SocialNuggets) is based on comments below via a range of relevant websites and open access social media platforms. It measures not only the number of comments posted by consumers on the Internet, but also their sense -. If jobs are positive or negative in nature

DigitalMR CEO, Michalis Michael commented: “The tablets appear to have launched a wave of optimism of consumers and the iPad currently dominates online conversation is essential for brands to leverage their goodwill. line, to create a greater impact than the battle for second place is increasing. ”


The popularity of tablets shows no signs of slowing. For example, the Consumer Electronics Association, 17 million were sold in the US alone in 2010 and its last forecast of 42 million units to be sold in 2011. Source: http://www.twice.com

With growing sales, and many more consumers intend to buy, what do consumers actually think about slate devices?


1) Net Sentiment

All brands measured, achieve a net positive score Feeling (NSS) Jan-June NSS provides an overall score of percentage of net positive messages. A positive result of a tablet attracts a higher proportion of positive and negative messages.


The average NSS necessary for all brands measured is 41% – very high compared to other industry sectors. This is very encouraging for the Tablet PC industry because it shows customers are generally very satisfied with their devices and are eager to share the good news online.


Apple has a NSS of 38%, slightly below average, but given its dominant position in the customer market expectations are likely to be higher. However, it still generates more buzz online twice as positive as negative. New entrants to the market (with a much lower base online chat) to achieve higher NSS as Viewersonic 78%, 65% Blackberry, LG and HTC both with 57%.


2) the positive and negative messages

Apple accounts for 48% of all positive messages to consumers on the internet through Jan.-June 2011. The next are more powerful Motorola 16%, followed by Samsung and Blackberry, both with 9%.


Of all the measured negative messages, Apple accounts for 52%. Motorola follows with 18%, followed by Barnes and Noble with 11%.

As seen in the customer quote below, this may include the weight, the overall size and the size of the screen. Devices that may be too large for some users are often not large enough for the other, because of the way the size is related to the preferred type of use. This is likely to become a key differentiator for tablets as the market develops.

Size attracts 20% of all the negative comments, but only 9% of all positive. Conversely, the characteristic of “Video” on slate devices is well received, attracting 15% of all positive comments, but only 9% of those who are negative.


Customers’ comments on the tablet size:

“Blackberry Playbook is surprisingly heavy for its size of 7 inches. It has applications evil. He must basic applications, including email, calendar and contacts at the very least, because webmail seems not function properly. It must be less than strollers in general. ”

http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/blackberry_playbook_a_work_in_progress.php

“I hesitated to acquire Slate 500 due to take more time than anything else, but I was not happy with his screen size. – Too small for a real productive use I have read drawings and documents on the screen and can not be zooming in and out with the power of graphics processing compromises on these devices. ”

http://www.gottabemobile.com/2011/02/21/when-does-size-matter-on-your-tablet/

“Just because something is more expensive and does not do better! I have been digitally inking / drawing and do my digital art and for the last 2-3 years and I really prefer small tablets. I uses a genius 8×6 tablet and it works wonders for me. I heard people give horrible reviews 12×8- tablets as his way of saying great to use and I believe them. ”

“Well Ipad 2 was a bit expensive, it was worth it I take with me wherever I go and it’s very easy to use The battery lasts more than a laptop;.. Applications are easy to install and to use. The new iPad is obviously faster than its predecessor. ”

http://www.reviewcentre.com/review846375 .html

Archos

“I bought this thinking to replace my book readers and for an easy way to not lug a lap top around, while I travel. It works great for both purposes, unbelievably light, very responsive and less expensive than the Ipad, etc. The 7 inch size is perfect for me. I had some trouble getting used to the operating system and file transfers etc but Archosfan.com had answers for everything I questioned. This unit also replaces an Archos 705 that I’ve had for the last couple of years and while I was impressed with it, this just blows me away.” Source: amazon.com

Asus

“You don’t need to prove anything to me. The Asus Transformer and the future Transformer 2 are the best Android (and IOS) tablets out there. I am patiently awaiting the number 2 but winning the first generation will quench my thirst to possibly hold out for 3!”

Next placed is Amazon with 19% of positive mentions and only 13% of negative, followed by Samsung with 15% of positive mentions and 18% of negative ones.

Digital Drawing Tablet

There are many different considerations to make when buying a digital drawing tablet. With a wide range of brands, sizes, styles, and functions available on the market, you want to make sure that you get something that will truly fit your needs.

Think about the aspects of drawing tablets that will work best for your situation. If you are merely designing, you could stick to a mouse or opt for one of the smaller, less expensive tablets. However, if you are coloring and painting or interested in manipulating photographs, you should probably go with one of the more advanced drawing tablets. This will ensure that you get the most usefulness from your investment as possible.

It is also important to know that there are amateur as well as professional versions of most drawing tablets out there. They will, of course, vary in price. The professional editions may also come with a larger drawing pad and more features. If you are just starting out with a digital drawing tablet, you would probably be okay with the amateur style. If you will be using the tablet for work or school, however, you may want to go with the professional option.

If you will be using your drawing tablet a great deal, you may want to purchase one that does not require batteries. There are other methods for powering these devices, and it would be worth the investment to choose one that will not have you spending more money or wasting valuable time charging the item. You should also make sure that the digital drawing tablet you choose is compatible with your computer, whether you have a PC or Mac. It also needs to work with your operating system to be functional for you.

Those that are new to using drawing tablets may want to invest in a brand that offers a great deal of support. Some manufacturers give their customers access to a forum once they have made their purchase. There, they can get a lot of instant assistance with their new purchase. There are expert users in these forums that are ready to answer any questions you have. These forums also provide you with the necessary drivers and other items you need.

As you can see, there are many different factors to consider when purchasing a digital drawing tablet. Because there are so many on the market, you want to be sure you choose one that will most effectively meet your needs. Thoughts to consider include the power source, price, compatibility, and support. It can be easy to be won over by the next best thing, but existing models may be more affordable and easier for you to use. Be sure that you research all of the tablets you are interested in before making your purchase.

There are a lot of factors to consider when purchasing a digital drawing tablet.

Amazon set to challenge Apples domination of the tablet PC market, says online research specialist DigitalMR.

London (PRWEB UK) 4 April 2012
