It features NVIDIA’s Tegra K1 chipset, which has a quad-core 2.2 GHz Cortex-A15, and GeForce GPU based on the Kepler architecture with 192 Cuda Cores. Its 16GB of internal storage might be on the low side, but its 128GB microSD card limit slot makes all the difference when you want a library of games present in your tablet. NVIDIA Shield tablet K1 will obviously be upgraded to Marshmallow, giving you access to better software optimizations and battery life. It also has 2GB of RAM, and a dual-band Wi-Fi adapter necessary to connect to wireless networks. You can connect a Bluetooth gaming controller to get a better gaming experience but unfortunately, the slate does not come bundled with one, forcing you to purchase a separate one.

2. Acer Predator
Acer has a wide lineup of gaming products and its Predator Android gaming tablet is definitely a looker when you take a look at it from the outside. As for the hardware, Acer Predator has an 8 inch screen with a 1200p display and while it features Intel Atom x7-Z8700 SoC (it only has a quad-core processor running ag 1.6GHz and 2GB RAM), the tablet possess one feature that no other gaming slate features so far.

3. Nexus 9
Now there are several reasons why Nexus 9 was included in this round-off. First off, it is large enough to provide mobile gamers with enough space to game comfortably without becoming unusually too large for them. Secondly, it is loaded with hardware that surpasses the performance of NVIDIA Shield tablet K1. To summarize, Nexus 9 sports an 8.9 inch screen with a 2048 x 1536 resolution. Its chipset is none other than NVIDIA’s Tegra K1 but instead of Cortex-A15 cores, the SoC has a dual-core Denver CPU, making it effectively more powerful than both NVIDIA’s and Acer’s tablet. Another reason why we decided to place this tablet was because it belongs to the Nexus category of devices, which in a nutshell means that you will be able to experience the best of what Google’s Android OS updates have to offer. Additionally, you will get the latest security updates, which is a plus feature to have as well. The only drawback to purchasing the tablet is that just like the other Nexus devices released before and after it, Nexus 9 does not sport a microSD card, so you will have to get around with using 16 or 32GB of storage (depending on which model you purchase), which will mean that you will need to keep limited games in the internal storage of the slate. Nexus 9 also has an 802.11ac Wi-Fi adapter, and an LTE modem (depending on which model you end up purchasing). It also has a very large battery, and with 6,700mAh of charge capacity, you can get around to gaming on it for a considerably long period.
