One of the biggest challenges when using conventional tablets on boats is their screen performance. Despite their versatility on land, smartphones and tablets often struggle to display maps and nautical apps clearly in direct sunlight. This is due to their limited screen brightness, which can make it difficult to read even basic information. This is where specialized marine devices like sunlight-readable tablets come into play.
To understand why sunlight-readable tablets are superior, we need to delve into some technical aspects. LCD screens, commonly found in tablets, rely on backlighting to illuminate the pixels. The brightness of this backlight is measured in nits. For a tablet to be considered sunlight-readable, it generally needs to have a brightness of over 800 nits, with most models exceeding 1000 nits.
Contrast is another critical factor in sunlight readability. It refers to the difference between the brightest and darkest colors a display can produce. A higher contrast ratio ensures better visibility in bright conditions. Optical bonding, a technique that eliminates the air gap between the touchscreen and LCD, further enhances sunlight readability by reducing reflections.
In addition to hardware improvements, surface treatments like anti-glare coatings can significantly improve screen visibility in sunlight. These coatings scatter reflected light, reducing glare and enhancing image clarity.
SailProof tablets offer impressive brightness levels, typically around 1000 nits, ensuring excellent visibility even in direct sunlight.
These tablets boast high contrast ratios, providing clear and detailed images.
Protected by Gorilla Glass and featuring anti-glare and anti-fingerprint coatings, SailProof tablets are built to withstand harsh marine environments.
SailProof models are now compatible with polarized sunglasses, offering enhanced visibility without the need to constantly adjust or remove them.
The combination of exceptional sunlight readability, durability, and innovative features makes SailProof tablets the ideal choice for sailors, marine enthusiasts, and professionals who demand a reliable device in any weather condition.
