Under a Thousand: One huge digital slate for not too much

Key Points

They were considered as digital slates for kids who could not be trusted with real (and expensive) tablets, but Xiaomis decision to launch the Redmi Writing Pad in India last year seems to have revived interest in the most basic of all tablets..

These are those LCD notepads that are designed only for writing and drawing, with the content disappearing every time you hit a button..

If you find the Redmi Writing Pads 8.5 inch display a little too small for your requirements, then you can get the Portronics Ruffpad 15M..

That size also makes the Ruffpad 15M much better for elaborate sketches and diagrams as compared to the smaller Redmi Writing Pad..

It does add some colour to the very basic scribble and sketch experience that the Redmi Writing Pad delivers, but the Portronics Ruffpad 15Ms biggest asset is its size..
