Market suggests that the Apple iPads are rising in sales and their popularity everyday. Of course, it would interest other manufacturers as well to take a slice of that proverbial pie. However, the inception of the Google Android Tablets has proved to create controversial phenomena between the iPads and Android Tablets. Point to note is that Google Android Tablets were also expected bringing some extraordinary facilitations to the users using Google's open-source Android platform. However, it will be interesting to know how Apple iPads stand against the Android tablet computers.

The Apple iPad
Its graphical interface is stunning with crisp video and clear visual facility in all types of the iPad's package. There remains a smooth interaction between you and iPad while using it. The touch is superb with high screen sensitivity, and other features like Bluetooth, Wifi and 3G connectivity. The battery life of 10 hours is amazing and everyone loves the simple-to-use and easy-to-handle OS platform on which its systems run. There are a number of exciting games and applications that keep on adding the coolness factor and beauty to the Apple iPad. All the apps related to entertainment, multimedia and that are in the iPhones are made available with the iPads as well.

Other than the benefits, some of the disadvantages are also there with having Apple iPads. The foremost important things that iPads lack are a camera and the USB ports. This is the reason why most of the potential buyers have turned off from buying the Apple iPads. The facility of multitasking with iMacs and Macbooks is lacking in the iPads and one can hardly use two or more applications at the same time. It also does not supports the Flash and Safari browser and disappoints the Hulu, CBS and YouTube fans very much.


The Android Tablets
The android tablet computers function on the basis of the open-source platform. It means that people can use as well as improve on the applications, coding for programs and the like. Hence, the programmers have become able to design and create more apps and games for the Android tablets users. Most of these devices are priced reasonably lesser than that of the iPads. They come with amazingly expandable memory and Wifi connectivity as well. Paying some amounts additionally will let you enjoy the 3G internet and GPS services as well. Dell Streak and Enso zenPad are the examples of the two functionally advanced and reasonably priced tablet computers that come with Flash as well as camera facility that iPads does not have.

Due to certain Android OS restrictions, tablets using this platform cannot be available of more than 7 inches of size. Hence, the iPad will always be much larger than any Android Tablet in the market, unless there comes any changes by the Google about such restrictions. When it comes to battery life, iPads are always superior than the tablets making it a biggest advantage for the iPad users.
So, the fact still remains to be discovered as to who emerges victorious in the battle. A large number of iPads and tablets are still scheduled to launch this year and they may have some upgraded feature. However, until their release dates come, the Apple iPad is crowed as a winner due to its amazing qualities.
