"Most" tablets do not have a built-in flash?

[KarsonC]

Recently, my father is asking me to help him to decide

which tablet is good for reading documents, web browsing and take photos his on trip.

However, when I search on the internet, almost all of them are not equipped with a built-in flashlight.

I search though forums and sites, none of them have ever talk about the reasons for omitting the built-in flashlight.

Am I the one that noticed this matter or it is just normal. :huh:

Edit:

It should be a flash, not flashlight. Sorry if I mislead you.

Why the bloody hell would a tablet need a flashlight? It's far too large to be using like a torch, most people use a phone or an actual torch. Totally normal state of affairs.

 

EDIT

I just occured to m you might be talking about the photo-flash function. In which case I'd have to say again, most people use phones for that and taking pictures or video with a tablet for anything but videochat is generally not done.

A flashlight? Like a torch you'd use in the night? Or do you mean a shutter for the camera?

just get an app that will use the flash of the camera and you are set

That's exactly what he's saying : some tablets don't have a flash.

reason being is, "Have you ever seen a person take serious photos with an iPad and not look dumb"

It's not a flashlight that's why you couldn't find anything about it. It's a flash for the camera but you can download apps to keep the flash on and use it like a flashlight, but it isn't a flashlight.

Oops, sorry for misleading....

It should be a flash at the back of the tablet.

Well, after hearing for you all, it sounds fine to me.

Thanks for inputs. :-)

Thanks for your correction.
