When choosing a tablet it’s on you rather you choose between a Wi-Fi and a cellular tablet. We prefer you to choose a cellular tablet due to their some of the limitations with Wi-Fi tablets.

Mostly Wi-Fi only devices are lack of GPS which is their major problem GPS is not found in most of the devices.

Your map won’t work properly is one of its problem when the Wi-Fi is disabling. You can attach Bluetooth GPS and connect it to your tablet through this you will be able to solve its problem.

Choosing a tablet for DJI Spark there are few things you need to know:

• The first is the System-on-Chip (SoC) because you don’t want it to be laggy. If you are looking for an Android tablet make sure that the processor is equal to or more powerful than the Snapdragon 600 series.
• The second thing is the operating system makes sure that it comes with iOS 9.0 or Android 5 lollipop and above since that is the minimum version supported by the DJI Spark.
• The another important factor to consider when choosing a tablet for your drone is their compatibility with the DJI GO app that will use every time whenever you fly it. The DJI Go app updated on regular basis so it’s important to get a tablet that is compatible and works properly with the app.
• When you look for an Apple and Android device both of them work great but you need to make it sure that the device must be capable of running iOS 8.0 and android 4.1.2.

If you want to get the best results then we will recommend a 2.0+ GHz processor and 3GB of RAM or more is always better. If you are using multiple devices then check their specs and choose the most powerful one for flying your drone.
