Unlike the iPad, the Kineo android tablet is made specifically for school settings. Although the iPad is the hottest new nack-to-school accessory on the market and is capable of quite a lot, it also offers different games and features that can deter education rather than accent it.
The Kineo android tablet, on the other hand, is designed with students in mind. Stripped of texting abilities, camera technology and more, it also only accesses sites approved by the teacher. Although that might not seem like much fun, it will benefit the student in the long run.
