The Samsung Galaxy Tab!

The Samsung Galaxy Tab is the first competitor to the iPad. It is a touch device that performs all the same things an iPad does. The costs of it are $400 when bought with a cell phone provider and $600 without a cell phone contract. The iPad and Galaxy Tab are pretty similar priced. The size is different, it is smaller then the iPad, two inches smaller. With it being smaller, there is a weight difference so it is not that heavy as an iPad. A person is able to hold it in one hand as well. Even though it does not have the Apps that an Android phone does, the people at Samsung went and redid the Apps used for the Tab and now they work just as well. Unfortunately their Apps are not as specific as the ones made for the iPads. There is no third party Apps, so everything you receive are from Google.

The size is two inches smaller. People may think this is a good thing because they can hold it in one hand and the weight is dramatically different. However the screen is smaller and the reviewer said that it is almost half the screen on the iPad.

The Samsung Tab only allows around 6 ½ hours of playing time. He explained that he made the screen the brightest and played video on it and that it only lasted half on the iPad’s battery life, which is closer to 11 hours. He seemed to be liking the Galaxy Tab since it’s cost was different and the fact that it had cameras and flash capability.
