I think you’re thinking of the wrong kind of Tab

Looks Are Important...

As far as looks are concerned, the Samsung Galaxy Tab only really has one well-known device to compete with- the iPad. The Samsung Galaxy Tab is slightly smaller (almost 3 inches in length) and lighter in weight- it weighs less than a pound. This little guy packs a mean punch, and fits more comfortably in the hand than the iPhone does. The screen is clear, bright and super responsive. Another huge bonus are the front and back-facing cameras, an area where the Samsung Tab dominates.

Hardware Deets Include:

  • Height: 7.48 inches
  • Width: 4.76 inches
  • Thickness: .47 inches
  • Weight: 13.23 ounces
  • Display Screen: 7-inch TFT LCD, with WSVGA display
  • Memory: 8GB of internal memory storage, with room for 32 GB expandable storage
  • Battery Capacity: 4000 mAh rechargeable battery, with up to 13 hours of use and up to 500 hours of standby
  • 1GHz Samsung Cortex A8 Hummingbird Application processor
  • 1.3 megapixel front-facing and 3.0 megapixel back-facing cameras (Where were you on that one, Steve Jobs?)
  • 16 GB of memory, expandable by another 32 GB- that should take care of quite a few Gossip Girl episodes
  • Built-in Speakers


You can’t drink this Tab.
