Samsung Electronics launched the new tablet in the 7-inch family, Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7, in the same week Apple, Inc. released the new iPad 2012 model. That may be one of the reasons why the 7-incher could not attract media attention. However, given the time spent with the new device from the Koreans, I would […]
Aesthetically, the Tab 7.7 is like the cooler, slicker cousin of the Tab 7.0 Plus. It is 7.75 inches wide and 5.25 inches high. However, the most amazing part is its depth which is 0.38 inches, just 0.01 inches shy of being the same thin as its cousin. You know the one that gets invited […]
Images and video recorded with the front camera looked as if there were a deliberate film grain placed over it, and not in a cool, artsy kind of way, but more of the, “Hey, there seems to be some film grain on this video, can we please get rid of it?” variety. The back camera […]
Another thing that comes pre-installed in the device is Peel’s Smart Remote App that instantly turns the tablet into a television remote control. With an interactive screen it is one of the best apps in the whole lot. This I think is a feature to best iPad and iPhone’s ability to interact with Apple TV. […]
Navigating the interface took some getting used to, but was easy enough to pick up; however, I took issue with the method by which cable TV screen menus are controlled by the interface. Peel went with a swipe interface that requires you to flick the screen in one of four directions in order to highlight […]
Rounding out the hardware features are an ambient light sensor, gyroscope, accelerometer, and digital compass. Performance-wise, the device is the best device with a smaller footprint. The hardware works seamlessly with software and the applications launch without any lag time. There was no stutter that I could notice in the device while navigating through widget […]
The 7.7-inch screen is a charm. As mentioned earlier, it is the best screen I have ever seen in a 7-inch category and even all the larger siblings don’t enjoy the same AMOLED technology with such a grace. The resolution is the same as other 7-inchers, though, at 1,280×800 pixels. AMOLED screens are able to […]
Tablet culture has planted its footing in the modern technology world; even latest laptops are built on the lines of tablets since they are slim and ultra portable. 2011 was unanimously declared the year of tablets as the world saw a slew of slates from iPad 2 to numerous Android-based devices. However, since the Apple […]
2. Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime Since the release of the iPad 2 last year, the market, by and large, lacked an Android tablet that could compete with slim and sleek host of technology gismos. Even before the release of Transformer Prime, techies had fixed their eyes at Asus for worthy opponent to the iPad […]
4. Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 As thin as the iPad 2 and even lighter, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is the sexiest Honeycomb tablet we’ve seen. Also, it has a 3-megapixel back camera and a 2-megapixel front camera, and powerful dual speakers. The lack of ports on the tablet will be a problem for some […]
Inside the slim (9.7mm in breadth) casing is a massive dual core processor that is clocked at 1.4 GHz. The processor is quite fast and efficient; there is not much stutter felt while navigating through the menus. This dual-core semi-conductor provides the power to Google’s Android Gingerbread operating system. Although the OS is quite a […]
Samsung and Google jointly released their new smartphone Galaxy Note in 2011 to adorn the Galaxy line-up. The phone is the first of its kind as its has a stylus nestled inside the casing for writing notes as with a pen and paper. Although the addition of a stylus is a bit old school, it […]
