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

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: Apple iPad came out in April 2010 and such has been the success that everyone is scrambling to make their own tablets. Most of them have given inexpensive tablets in different sizes and shapes but none of them have been able to challenge the prowess of...
So, what does Tab do that a Galaxy S phone (or any Android or iPhone) doesn't do as well or that a laptop does better? Maybe video watching and, maybe, game playing. In other words, what does it do? What function does it create or improve upon? It can't b...
Overall,I have been very impressed with both the form factor, and performanceof the Samsung Galaxy Tab. With a more portable, but still veryexpansive 7” screen, at a similar resolution to the 10” iPad, itprovides more room for applications and an overall...
The Samsung Galaxy Tab for Verizon Wireless is here, and it's giving the iPad something to quiver about. The Galaxy Tab may seem like a giant Galaxy S phone, as it is in Europe, but its Internet browsing, gaming, and productivity levels are on a level...
Abstract: It's a slim book-style easel case made of good quality leather that fits the Tab nicely. The exterior is made of coarse grain black leather, while the inside is lined with relatively smooth tan leather. Completely unseen magnets inside the top and bo...
Samsung's ambitious effort to deliver a high-end Android tablet is impressive, but it still feels like a rough draft. We suspect that a lot of Android's tablet issues will be ironed out over the next year as hardware vendors start rolling out devices ...
Nice display and form factor, great browsing experience, forward facing camera
Few tabletfriendly apps, no mini/microUSB port, no HD video recording
Samsung's Galaxy Tab for Sprint is the first Android powered tablet device that can be considered as an alternative to the Apple iPad. It runs Android 2.2 Froyo, allows for multitasking, and provides a smaller 7-inch form factor. Like Verizon's Galaxy...
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...
Abstract: by Conrad H. Blickenstorfer What makes the Samsung Galaxy Tab so relevant? There are several reasons. First, it's good. Very good. A very far cry from the cheap iPad copies that became available en masse during the summer and f...
