Best tablet for streaming – the top choice for companies and events in 2024

Streaming has become an integral part of everyday professional and private life – be it for business presentations, hybrid events, interactive product demos or streaming films and series at trade fairs. The demand for high-performance tablets that are ideal for streaming is therefore constantly increasing. But which is the best tablet for streaming in 2024 – especially for professional applications such as rental?

In this article, we analyze current market trends, compare powerful models such as those from the Apple iPad series or the popular Samsung Galaxy Tab S series, and show what is important when choosing a streaming tablet – ideal for companies, event organizers or agencies looking to rent technology.

What really matters when it comes to streaming tablets?

A good streaming tablet must be able to do more than just display a razor-sharp image. The following criteria are particularly important in the professional sector:

Display quality: Bright, high-contrast displays with a high resolution (at least Full HD) are essential for high-quality video content.
Performance: A powerful processor and sufficient RAM enable smooth streaming even under high load – e.g. when using apps such as Zoom, YouTube and presentation software in parallel.
Battery life: A long-lasting battery without frequent recharging is essential for trade fairs or business events.
Network connection: Support for current Wi-Fi standards and optional LTE/5G are useful for flexible streaming on the move.
Compatibility: Depending on the scenario, the tablet must be able to communicate with external displays, docking stations or recording devices.
System stability: A reliable operating system (iOS or Android) is particularly advantageous for rental and corporate use.

In addition, a good streaming tablet should be ergonomic in the hand, have good speakers or alternatively Bluetooth and headphone compatibility. All of this creates a solid basis for professional presentations or entertainment at a high level.
