Hi, I am a photographer and graphic designer and am in need of a new Android tablet and new Windows laptop, as both of mine are now ancient and slow, so I am hoping to kill two birds with one stone by getting a dual-boot Android/Windows tablet, as I don’t want to travel with three devices (need my iPad for certain apps). Here’s what I need:
- Main use will be Android, with Windows being used when travelling and occasionally when needing a stylus in the office
- Android use will be for two tethered shooting (tablet controls camera) apps and a USB port is required for one (other app uses WiFi)
- Windows needs to run Photoshop CS6, Illustrator CS6, and Bridge CS6. Obviously, it won’t be my main device for editing/creating – that is my powerful desktop and high-end monitor made for photography/design – but when I travel, I am away for up to a month, so I need something to do some work on
- Stylus with pressure sensitivity is required
- Keyboard that doubles as a cover is highly preferable; keyboard needs to attach/double as a stand for the tablet (no separate Bluetooth keyboard and stand for tablet)
- External hard drive hookup capabilities is required
- Screen needs to be capable of being bright enough to seen outside in sunlight and dim down a lot in darkness
- Additional USB ports preferred (on keyboard is okay)
- Screen size should be no smaller than 10 inches
Things that do NOT matter:
- Built-in front/rear cameras (I won’t be using them)
- Capabilities for playing games (I don’t play any)
- Sound quality (I listen to music from my Android phone)
I’m in the USA. Thanks!
