5 Reasons Why Phablets Are The Business

Phablets are the new things these days (even though we think “tablone” is a better term for the phone/tablet hybrids), and getting your hands on the larger-than-life devices may seem daunting, but there’s some serious perks to having a super-sized mobile phone, such as Hisense’s MAXE X1, which 2oceansvibe recently got its hands on, and here’s a few things we noticed with Hisense‘s big addition to the family:

1. Better visibility: the obvious benefit to taller and larger screens is greater visibility and the MAXE X1’s 6.8-inch display delivers some serious clarity and space to operate in.
2. Truly all-in-one: these days, you need a swiss-army knife of mobile devices, and the X1 phablet delivers all the communication elements you’d need, 4G included, while also providing the flexibility of media use, with some impressive shooters: 5 mega-pixel front-facing and a 13-mega-pixel rear-facing cameras, to be exact.
3. Less cumbersome: some smartphones can be too finickity, and some tablets too big and awkward, so a phablet’s design and style can be ideal to carry around on-the-go, and the X1 isn’t overly-sized with its dimensions (192.2mm x 95.6mm x 9.2mm), but just right to slit easily and comfortably into your hands.
4. Room for creativity: With more space available for app design, developers and manufacturers have more room for creativity – literally – and you can use the expanded screen as a remote for your smart TVs as well as viewing videos and media without using a microscope, as is with the case with other smartphones.
5. More popularity, more choice: As phablet sales rise – consumers will buy twice as many in 2015 than they did in 2012 – and with this the support for devices, like the X1, will increase dramatically in the next year or so, giving you a device that’s at the forefront of the trends.
