Every day with my Acer Tab 8 Tablet with Intel Inside

My Acer Tab 8 tablet next to a kid-only tablet (one that does not connect to the Internet) that I use at work.

I hate to admit it, but I like to stay “connected” when I’m out and about. I like to know what is going on with my friends and family on Facebook. I often feel the need to Tweet about something and I enjoy uploading photos to Instagram.

I can do all of these things on my smartphone but honestly I would rather be able to see and do things that are not so “mini” in size. I like to see photos larger then what they appear on my smartphone. I also find it hard to type much with the itty bitty keypad on my phone.

When I’m on the go, or even just heading out to work, I like to pack my Acer Tab 8 Tablet with Intel Inside with me.

I use my tablet a lot at work. We don’t know from one day to the next how many children will be in our care on any given day. There are some days where we have upwards of 10 children and other days we have no children at all. On those days when we have no children or just one or two children who don’t stay with us that long, my director and I find ourselves very bored. There is only so much cleaning we can do in our itty bitty room. Therefore we need to find other ways to occupy our time.

One thing we love doing is watching Netflix. My director got me hooked on the cooking show “Chopped”. She watches it often on Netflix. I also like watching movies, but I tend to stick with television shows because the episodes are shorter. That way I don’t have to stop a movie and pick it up at another day or time.

I’ve also been watching Orange is the New Black. Parts of the show is actually filmed at my job.

Sometimes I work a double shift and end up staying at work for the 90 minute lunch break. Watching shows on the Acer Tab 8 with Intel Inside has been a “sanity saver”. Without it I’d probably go nuts with boredom.

The Intel processor inside my Acer provides me with exceptional video quality. The videos and movies that I stream are crisp and clear.

I like to play games on my tablet too. I’m not much of a “gamer” but I do like to challenge myself from time to time.

As it is with the videos and movies I watch, the quality of the games that I play is exceptional. Not only are the graphics colorful and clear, but the games run smoothly too. They are not “choppy” or have a tendency to freeze up on me. When you are playing a high paced game you want a processor that is going to deliver. From my personal experiences both with my tablet and my laptop at home (which also has Intel Inside) it’s probably the best processor you can get for your device.

A new thing I have been using my Acer tablet for at work is books for the kids that come in our care. I am able to download e-books for the kids to read (or I read to them). These books are specifically made for children and come with illustrations. I like that I can easily download new titles and books featuring popular characters the kids enjoy.

The service is called iStory. This would come in very handy if you have children and you go on long car trips or to give your child something constructive to do while waiting at an appointment or at a restaurant before food is served.

While we have some downtime at work I like to update my calendar so I know when my kids are staying late at school or when someone has an appointment. I also like to make note of when I get paid since I get paid every other week.

Knowing what the weekly weather is going to be is something else I look up while using my Acer Tab 8 tablet. I like to know what the weekly weather will be like so I can plan accordingly.

What I love about this tablet is that it’s a good size (not too big, not too small) and it’s very lightweight. Its very slim too. It fits easily in my bag.

I’m not a “techie” person by any means but I was able to get my tablet up and running in no time and it was super easy to figure out.

There are so many apps that come pre-loaded on the Acer Tab 8 Tablet. Plus you can download even more apps in the apps store.

I haven’t had the need to download too many things on my tablet because it comes with so many apps. Check them out!

The tablet does have a camera, but I don’t use it too often while at work. Technically we are not supposed to take pictures where I work for security reasons, but I do snap the occasional photo of stuff that is happening outside my window. We tend to get a lot of news crews so I take pictures of them and send them to my son who wants to work in film one day.

You might think that a tablet like this with so many “bells and whistles” (so to speak) would cost a lot. The reality is that tables such as this one from Acer are actually pretty affordable. There are a lot of Intel Tablets that won’t “break the bank”.

With the holiday season fast approaching you should consider giving an Acer tablet with Intel Inside as a gift. I know teenagers and college students would really appreciate a gift like this. Both of my teenagers enjoy using my tablet. My daughter wants to take it to school with her to play with during study hall, but she can’t since I take it to work with me every day.

If you do decide to buy a tablet make sure it has Intel Inside so that you are sure to get the best quality images and a great gaming platform (among other things).

If you are a fan of Intel like I am (my whole family is) you should consider joining the Intel Advocate Experience.

Do you have an Acer tablet? If so, which one do you have and what do you think about it?

Are you in the market for a tablet?

If you have a tablet what do you use it for the most? Do you enjoy watching movies and videos? Do you plan games? Do you enjoy using your tablet for connecting on social media? Feel free to share your thoughts. I always love to hear from my readers.
