AT LAST! an Android tablet for beginners

-

IF YOU feel technology is leaving you behind and you don’t know your iPad from your elbow; Twitter is something that birds do; and Facebook means looking at a book to read, then you are probably one of hundreds of thousands who feel isolated from the outside world, with everyone speaking a strange new language.

NOT being a part of this new technology can leave people feeling left behind and lonely; perhaps you acknowledg­e that you should know what to do with an android tablet but not really knowing where to begin.

Welcome to the 21st century

Age should not be a barrier to learning something new. And learning to use an android tablet could help improve memory while at the same time bringing you into the twenty first century; allowing you to keep in touch with family and friends near and far.

Staying in touch

Technology can be of great benefit to people of all ages, especially older generation­s as a means of keeping in touch or with online shopping if getting out of the house is becoming more difficult. Perhaps getting to the library is no longer an option, with an android tablet you have a whole world of books, newspapers and magazines at your fingertips.

The world at your fingertips

You can break into this new technology with an Android Tablet from Pressplay. From browsing the web and online shopping to keeping up with friends and family on Facebook, Twitter and Skype – the digital world is at your fingertips with this simple-to-use tablet. And we will show you what to do and how to do it.

We’ll be your guide

We will explain all the terminolog­y that comes with new technology such as what an app is; what Twitter is – online social networking tool whereby users keep ‘followers’ up dated with chat and events. Facebook is another social networking site that allows users to post photograph­s and events that are happening in their lives to keep up with friends and family around the world. Skype allows you to talk to and see at the same time friends and family who also have Skype – like a telephone but with live pictures. We’ll even explain how Wi-Fi works and help you get connected so that you can ‘surf’ the great world wide web (or internet as it’s usually known).

Never miss out

The Pressplay Tablet lets you catch-up on your favourite TV programmes through BBC IPlayer, ITV Hub, All4 (Channel 4 and associated channels). It is pre-loaded with the following apps to keep you up to date and entertaine­d:- BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub, All Four, Demand 5, BBC iPlayer Radio, BBC Sport, Mailonline, Sky News; and games - Crossword, Solitaire, Sudoko, Scrabble; keep in touch with loved ones through Skype and Gmail. You can download films and music through Playstore, and with the Amazon Kindle app it will transform the tablet into a library of books for your complete enjoyment.

Take it anywhere

The compact design means you can take the Pressplay Tablet with you wherever you go – play a game a home, read the latest news ‘on the go.’ And with two cameras – one on the front for Skype, self-photograph­s (selfies) and recordings, and one on the back – you can take photograph­s and video recordings wherever you are.

Millions of apps

It’s so easy to create an account to gain access to nearly 1 million free and paid for apps – including news and weather, social media, eReader, games and more, and we show you how.

Plenty of storage

Each Tablet can store vast quantities of music, films, books and data, and while the Pressplay Tablet has a storage memory of 8GB, this can be increased and we recommend investing in our ULTIMA PRO HIGH SPEED Storage Card – available in two sizes – 16GB, which increase storage capacity to 24GB or 32GB card, increasing the storage capacity to 40GB.
