What the fuck is this shit? It's almost like manufacturers DON'T want my fucking money. Fucking CHRIST, I could get a shitty 5-year-old netbook with more features.

That's because tablets are for children and old people who don't need usb ports.

Because they have no purpose, anything done by a tablet can be done better with a laptop.

That's because I'd rather use a normal-thickness tablet that only has room for a micro USB port, than use a massively thick tablet that has room for a full-size USB port (if they even exist).

Don't you know the history of this?

1: USB-A becomes popular about 18 years ago. At that time, the idea of ultra-thin mobile devices was just a dream -- they never imagined it was just a few years in the future.

2: They designed micro USB once smartphones started getting popular about 10 years ago and it was clear that it was going to be a race to see how thin they could make them.

My shield tablet fits in my front pocket if I'm wearing basketball shorts. Otherwise it fits in my hoodie pocket.

Confirmed for not owning an UMPC back then

More like 6 years ago, before that we had the superior miniusb

I just got an ASUS X205TA and it weighs about as much as a comparable tablet + bluetooth keyboard combo would, plus it has full sized USB ports. As a bonus, the screen isn't complete eye cancer like is usual for these low cost netbooks.

>>53269954
My tablet has a 300 PPI IPS screen. 135PPI is terrible.

I don't care if you've gone overkill, 135PPI is fine. Hell my monitor is like 96 or something.
>>
>>53270078
You can stare at a shit screen all day long but please don't imply that you aren't getting eye cancer from it.

Im planning to get one for college but its pretty much the same than lenovo 100s but $40 more expensive.

Fuck there isn't even an excuse to not have them when some tablets are thick enough. I was going to mod my Venue 8 Pro to have a fullsize USB port before it broke

Laptop/desktop screen DPI are not comparable to phone/tablet screens because you won't be holding them right up to your face (unless you're nerdraging at CS:GO or something).
