Samsung Galaxy Tab Compared to the Apple iPad

A new shop segment was created when the iPad was launched. This segment in the middle of a netbook Pc and smartphone has been dominated by the iPad since that launch. The big mainstream manufacturers are now launching their products in that market, the first arrival from Samsung. So how does the Samsung Galaxy Tab correlate to the Apple iPad?

How is the Samsung Galaxy Tab separate to the Apple iPad?

The iPad's screen is 9.7-inches (measured diagonally) compared to the smaller 7-inch format on the Samsung tablet so you get less screen to play with but it's more portable. The Galaxy Tab also has passage to the Android shop applications plus Samsung's own apps but the iPad has passage to the Apple App Store which offers a much larger option of apps and more that are optimised for a tablet device. Apps on the iPad are restricted to those approved by Apple App Store, Samsung doesn't restrict their apps so you can load anyone you want.   The battery of the Galaxy Tab is capable of up to 7 hours of continuous video playback on a singular charge compared to up to 10 hours on the iPad. The processor on the is more grand than the iPad's. The iPad doesn't reserve Adobe Flash so parts of the web aren't accessible such as some video, games and animation. The iPad doesn't have a Usb port for attaching peripheries or a memory stick and the iPad's storehouse capacity can't be extended - you're restricted by the model you buy initially. The Galaxy Tab has a camera for video conferencing and taking pictures, the 1st generation iPad doesn't have either.

Samsung Galaxy Tab vs iPad

The iPad is established and was the first to shop so has the advantage. It's very stable, has an established app shop and huge iTunes library of music, video and much more. The long battery life, exquisite user interface, and video ability mean the iPad has a wonderful user experience.

The Galaxy Tab has a large estimate of the things that people have complained are missing from the iPad such as Usb ports, extendable memory, Flash reserve and free time to load anyone you want on your tablet Pc.

Apple are dominating the shop but all the other big manufacturers are entering it now and only time will tell who the big winners are.
