A fifth of a millimeter in size, with which we concern ourselves only rarely. Is it the eye but difficult to perceive this at all yet. However, just 0.2 millimeters this now ensures that Samsung Apple to the track decreases as the manufacturer of the thinnest Tablets. The Korean electronics manufacturer presented its new 8.9-inch Galaxy Tablet and a revised 10.1-inch device. Both of these are exactly 0.2 millimeters thinner than the 2nd iPad
The difference in thickness brings the Korean manufacturer once just a marketing advantage. But he is not bad, after all, had Apple CEO Steve Jobs at the launch of the iPad two in early March said that most of the new tablet computer that they just came out thicker than the first iPad, none will come, approach the new Apple model.
With Samsung you have to provoke them have felt. For the 10-inch version, the company had presented back in February, but now it herumgetüftelt again. It was still thicker than the second iPad That has now changed, and with quite similar performance.
In the inner of the two Samsung Tablets almost put the same technique. Both are like the Apple model with a Dual Core processor with a performance driven by a gigahertz. They like the competition either WiFi or 3G standard and the buyer can choose between a memory capacity with 16, 32 or 64 gigabytes. Using micro-SD card, the memory can also be extended to a maximum of 32 gigabyte. The displays have a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. Like other Apple competitors may also view the Galaxy Tab Flash video. The batteries will hold out for video operation ten hours.
All this is by now standard tablet. The Samsung devices but are also lighter than the big enemies. The smaller 8.9-inch version weighs less than a pound. With a weight of 470 grams is 130 grams lighter than the iPad 2 - that is larger and has a screen size of 9.7 inches. That makes a difference, such as when one is using the tablet on the sofa and it must last longer. But even the 10.1-inch Samsung-Tablet is lighter, with its 595 grams of six grams.
The Galaxy Tab is, therefore, as in his first version, not without cameras. But as Apple has neglected to this part. The camera on the back has three megapixels, takes video in HD quality with a resolution of 720 lines and has an LED flash. Samsung had originally planned for the device, but an eight-megapixel camera with full HD video recording, at least it was installed in the first version of the Galaxy.
Perhaps they decide not to, when, after the presentation of the realized iPad 2, that the main competitor has not set out the focus. The cameras at the iPad 2 are rather worse, the company makes no representation, with how many megapixels they take pictures. Points can, for example, Motorola's Tablet Xoom with a five-megapixel version. See more detail....
