Samsung Galaxy Tab

Samsung Galaxy Tab is much smaller than the Apple iPad compared to iPad it's a 7in device and the iPad is 9in. It is more lighter than the iPad and can be easily handled. This Tab is plastic construction whereas iPad is aluminium  body. The flip side is that it doesn't feel quite as premium quality as the Apple device. Not that it feels cheap in anyway - its screen is glass and it feels solid enough - but it certainly lacks that certain something. This Pad is available in silver, black and white.
The screen uses LCD technology, It also incredibly sharp thanks to its 1,024 x 600 pixels being packed into such a small space. As for screen size, as we've been predicting, the 7in form factor feels much more natural than the rather oversized iPad. The screen is detailed enough to view full webpages yet still be able to read the text and it's the perfect size for a page of text in a book. It's also plenty large enough that we'd be happy to watch a full movie when on the go.

Hardware features include a 3megapixel camera on the rear, along with an LED flash, and a 1.3megapixel camera on the front for video calling. There's not much to say on this front; it's a basic camera that will be useful for the odd snap but obviously quality is nothing too clever. MicroSD and SIM slots can be found on the right edge so you can expand storage and add mobile internet connectivity to the onboard Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Under the hood there's a 1Ghz Cortex A8 CPU that is impressively powerful. For instance, Flash video playback through the web browser is superb and the Need For Speed Shift game loaded onto the device also runs impressively well Samsung has changed the UI of the operating system to tie it in with the TouchWiz look-and-feel that it uses on its phones, and as we've found before we don't really like the changes. In particular, the extra background added to icons makes them difficult to distinguish from one another. Overall, it's still very usable and the UI can be changed so this is but a minor complaint.
