subject: What You Should Know About The Samsung Galaxy Tab - Detailed Critique [print this page] If you compare the Samsung Galaxy Tabs with other tablets on the market, how do they compare? We'll find the answer to this question and present it in this review for your enlightenment - both the good features and any drawbacks present. When it comes to computer technology, there aren't many companies who are as esteemed as the Samsung Corporation. It's good to see them entering this competitive market - that of the Android based tablet PCs - and we're sure their offerings will be well received by the public.
The model with the most power is the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. It comes standard with a dual-core Tegra 2 Processor along with 1 gigabyte of RAM. You'll be happy with the speed at which you can access the internet, view your favorite video, or play games - in addition to other tasks - very quickly. There will be no limitations when you want to load a website or access a website's content due to the capabilities of Adobe Flash. You can choose between 16 GB of memory or 32 GB. This should give you plenty of memory to last a long time. Although it is less compact than the other two models, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 has a nice sized screen. This size is great reading books and magazines online or watching videos.
The Samsung GT already has a selection of apps included; however, there are numerous other apps you can also download. Music lovers will enjoy Slacker Radio, which gives you easy access to millions of songs from many different artists. You won't have a problem listening to your favorite genre of music with over 100 stations from which to choose. And, of course, Slacker Radio can be customized anyway you want with many different choices of preference. Do you want to know more about the music you listen to? You will find biographies of your favorite artists and reviews of many albums on Slacker Radio. Slacker Radio - the free version - isn't ad free. If you pay a small monthly charge, though, you can enjoy the upgraded Slacker Radio Plus.
If you surf the web, you will either access the Internet through 3G or WiFi - it depends on which Samsung Galaxy Tab you happen to have. The most reliable option, according to some consumers, is to use the 3G version through the Sprint network. Although WiFi does work, it does not work as well as it once did. What typically happens is that their connection crashes while using it. Conversely, there are seldom, if any, crashes on the 3G version of the Galaxy Tab offered right now. You will have to sign a contract to access this Internet. This is offered through Sprint, and only with the purchase of the Samsung Galaxy Tab through them. So instead of using WiFi, it is recommended that people use the Galaxy Tab with Sprint and their 3G network.
Samsung GT offers many capabilities in this mid-range tablet line. If you plan on buying a tablet anytime soon - for yourself or as a gift - the Samsung GT models are worth your time to research further. The three models of the Samsung GT have slight differences. When you are reviewing them, be sure to note the differences so you know which one is best for you. If you see that the Android operating system has been upgraded, look to see if the Samsung galaxy Tab has also been upgraded.
