Find Your Way Around Your Android Device
Just because a tablet runs Android does not mean that it will feel exactly the same as an Android smartphone to use. Tablets are obviously larger and at times much heavier, which almost always means that two hands are required to use them. It will require some time to adjust to the new usage pattern, but with the right setup you should soon be using an Android tablet as naturally as you would a phone very quickly. Many of the software aspect of a tablet work almost identically to Android on smartphone, and this is more relevant on tablets running the latest version of android.
Previous version were not optimised for tablet use and can feel clunky and inefficient to use at times. The larger screens make reading ebooks, magazines and newspapers much more comfortable, but aside from this, Android on a tablet is almost entirely a touch experience that feels familiar. Each tablet is different and the size of tablet you use will determine where you carry it, but minimal hardware buttons and extra features end to be common in every model.

Some of the widgets work better on a tablet because of the extra space available. You can view more emails and calendar entries at one time.
