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
A fully-featured tablet
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
Abstract: The IFA 2011 started at Berlin, and with it started the arrival of some of the much anticipated gadgets in the tech world. It started with Samsung announcing a brand new Android tablet, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7.The Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 is an Androi...
Still the best noniPad tablet. Plans include WiFi hotspots. Not much bloatware,
High upfront price. Blocks nonAndroid Market apps. AT&T's own apps are subpar.
The AT&T Galaxy Tab costs $649 with no contract required; there's no discounted two-year contract option, which I find a little inflexible. Every other carrier is offering the Tab with no contract for $599, so AT&T tries to soften the blow with a $50 c...

The Galaxy Tab Wi-Fi Android tablet offers a bright, responsive 7-inch screen, GPS, Bluetooth, and full access to Google's suite of mobile apps, including Android Market
This Galaxy Tab is an Android 2.2 tablet living in an Android 3.0 world, and bigger and better tablets are priced in the same ballpark
Samsung's 3G-free version of its 7-inch tablet, the Galaxy Tab, offers an appealing mix of price and horsepower, but it's overshadowed by the wave of inexpensive Android 3.0 devices.
Brilliant, bright screen, Manageable size is conducive for one-handed use
Screen doesn't support high-definition video, Proprietary connection port
With a few software tweaks and an appealing price, Samsung’s Wi-Fi-only Galaxy Tab should appeal to anyone who wants a 7-inch Android tablet with no pesky service contracts attached. Samsung Galaxy Tab Wi-Fi: Same Hardware, Lower Price Samsung Galaxy ...
We had some very good things to say about the Samsung Galaxy Tab during our tests. The tablet from Samsung is fast, the screen is sharp and bright, the device is effective in multitasking and its size is ideal to carry around in pockets and purses.Stro...
The Samsung Galaxy Tab does pretty much everything pretty well, just like the Galaxy S. If you happen to get your hands on one, you wont be able to find much to criticize in its performance. Though, that being said, the screen would be a little better...
7″ design is excellent, a great form factor for tablets, Hardware, software and data is fast as can be, Excellent battery life,
Android OS currently has no benefits for tablets; makes it a glorified smartphone, Proprietary connector makes it feel like an iPad, but without any spare cables lying around, No WiFi only model, high prices on most carriers
