Stay connected on the go with tablets

When tablet computers hit the mainstream market in full force in 2010, they completely changed the way people interacted with their devices. There has been a shift in recent years from powerful computers designed for work and serious gaming to smaller devices focused on ease-of-use and portability. Tablets bring the best of both worlds, giving users a large screen, a fast connection and plenty of ways to interact with the world. We offer a wide range of tablets from the top names on the market.

Shop the latest tablets from ASUS, Samsung, Acer, Dell, and other brands. Our selection of tablets includes several different sizes and memory levels so you can find the tablet that is just right for you. And don't forget about e-readers, which include devices like the Barnes & Noble NOOK that look a lot like tablets. These e-readers are especially designed for you to read on the go, taking your whole library with you in your pocket or purse.

When choosing a tablet, screen size is one of the major considerations. Most tablets have anywhere from 7 inches to 10 inches of screen space, measured diagonally. The 7-inch size is often compared to an e-reader, whereas the 10-inch size feels more like a netbook or other small computer. Weight is also a factor, as the larger tablets tend to be heavier and harder to hold for long periods of time. Also consider how much you want to be carrying when you take your tablet out with you, and if you want to carry it in a pocket, how big your pockets are.

Another major consideration is what operating system the tablet uses. Many tablets are structured around a system similar to those on smartphones, with a wide range of apps that run on the system. Some of the most popular operating systems are Android 3.0, Android 4.0, BlackBerry and Windows. Your tablet should run one of the latest versions of the operating system you choose so you have up-to-date support.

Lastly, keep an eye out for special features as you're browsing our selection at Kmart. For example, if you expect to do a lot of typing on your tablet, you may want one that has a keyboard included and has a screen that swivels to convert between a tablet and a netbook. Take note of other features like built-in cameras so you can video chat on your tablet. You'll also want a good pair of headphones so you can listen to music in public places without annoying the people near you, and a case to keep your device protected.
