The Samsung Galaxy Tab is the latest tablet to hit the market
And it has a lot going for it. At 7 inches
It's more compact than the Apple iPad
And it's easier to carry it around with you. Granted
It's still too large to fit in most pockets
But it'll slip into the smallest of bags
And fits perfectly in the hand. The Tab runs the same Android operating system as many of the latest smartphones
Excellent build quality
Supports Full HD 1080p playback
Superb 7in. display
Some clever tweaks to Android 2.2
Solid build quality
Responsive capacitive touchscreen
Flash 10.1 support
Video support
MicroSD card slot

GPS
Flash video
Landscape and portrait support in many native apps
The editors didn't like
Sluggish interface
Incomplete or frustrating-to-use software features
No USB or HDMI ports
Nice size
Solid build
Android 2.2
Excellent connectivity
Overpriced
Android is poor on tablets
Lack of decent software
Chunky
Not as slick as the iPad
Three separate app stores is just confusing
£550? I could buy an iPad and have money left over for an Apple TV
Scrolling was occasionally sluggish
Rather clumsy movie and music player interfaces
Some features less intuitive than others
The iPad Mini 2 is now much cheaper
Some UI lag
Google Play apps aren't tablet optimised
Price
Zoom in and out could be jerky
Reflective screen
Lack of HD apps/downloads
3G restrictions
Tough competition
Where's the AMOLED?
Making calls not all that practical
Handling with single hand impractical
Photo sensor not up to the quality of the tablet
Web browser too slow
Occasional freeze
Wide bezel around screen
Smartphonecentric OS.
At over £500
The Samsung Galaxy Tab is even more expensive than the Apple iPad
And it's a serious amount of money for a toy. It's not so good for work use – it's not quite big enough for presentations
For instance
And the onscreen keyboard is also more cramped than the Apple iPad's.
Tricky to handle
Expensive
Narrow viewing angles
Battery life could be better
Poor camera
Proprietary connector for charging/PC connection
No Micro-USB
Samsung's content offerings seem a little uninspiring

Small for a tablet; 3G phone functions; comprehensive media file support,
Occasional freeze; wide bezel around screen; smartphonecentric OS.
It may now be selling for a far more palatable price, but £300 is still a lot to pay for an entry-level tablet still in the shadow of the iPad. That said, it's both easier to carry and more comfortable to use than Apple's tablets, though - Flash video ...

This is very much a product of our times. On the one hand it's a Tablet PC, on the other it's an oversized phone. For many an oversized phone is enough to satisfy their needs, much like the Dell Streak. Some rarely use their air time for phone calls an...
