What Does Phablet Mean?
Techopedia Explains Phablet
The phablet term originated on popular tech blogs like Engadget and TechCrunch. Phablets vary in size and appearance but are generally smaller than standard seven- to 10-inch tablets, with an ideal size of approximately five inches. Thus, the size of a phablet is between that of a tablet and smartphone.
In October 2011, LG Electronics Inc. filed a U.S. federal trademark registration for the term phablet.
