Tablets are soon to replace paper in the office. Sony just revealed Digital Paper. It is a lightweight, portable device that can be used as a durable, reliable, and cheap alternative to paper.

Sony’s Digital Paper can soon be a hit, because more and more people are choosing portability when buying tablets.
Haptic Technology
Haptic technology is now possible thanks to Fujitsu’s haptic tablets. This tablet gives the feeling of smoothness and roughness through the emission of ultrasonic vibrations. Users can feel the grains of a sand, or the scales of a crocodile, by touching images in this tablet. Many companies have been developing technologies that can improve tablet usability, but this by far is the most innovative. By 2015, this tablet will be released in the market, and people will surely be impressed.
Foldable Tablet
Phones with flexible AMOLED display are already sold in the market, yet it is not highly appreciated by many. However in the coming months, Samsung is planning to release foldable tablets on the market. They just recently unveiled the product in the 2014 Mobile World Congress, and many experts think that it will be a big hit. The new technology allows tablets to be folded 90 degrees, which gives users liberty to choose from a tablet, or a laptop mode. This is an innovative technology that is sure to improve user experience.
3D Tablet Display
3D displays are not only for sci-fi films anymore. Now, HP Lab is at work in making tablets that can display 180 degree hologram-like images, produced from as many as 200 viewpoints. Unlike 3D capable phones and tablets that are already sold in the market, this new HP Lab is more interesting to try. However, it will take some time for this technology to grow because 3D technology although conceivable, is highly ambitious.
Tablet companies have really raised the bar when it comes to improving tablet functionality and usability, to create a positive user experience. With the speed of how fast technology is advancing, I am sure more and more people will appreciate these tablet developments.
