Compare The Samsung Galaxy Tab To Ipad

Mobile Phone 3 On May - 30 - 2011ADD COMMENTS

There is no secret anymore that Samsung Galaxy Tab is one of the competitors for Apple iPad. Probably when it comes to the price, there isn’t much competition, but the features are what matter more and when they are just what you need or like, the price, looks and brand name enter the competition. However, before you get there, you need to know more about each of them, so here they are! And we will take a look at Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 3G and the Apple iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G, since there aren’t equal denominations between the 2 devices, especially when both come in more flavors.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 3G is expected to be released any time soon and is supposed to have these dimensions:230.9 x 157.8 x 8.6 mm at 470 grams, an 8.9 inch TFT capacitive touchscreen and with multitouch input. It is said to be compatible with a 32GB microSD, adding to the internal memory, which can be: 16, 32 or 64GB. The 3G, WLAN and GPRS will be some of the connectivity specs. The Samsung team announced they installed a 3.15 main camera, as well as a secondary one. It runs Android 3.0 as OS and seems to have many other features, which many can barely wait to try out.

Apple iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G was released in March 2011 is more heavy: 607 grams, with these measurements:241.2 x 185.7 x 8.8 mm. When it comes to connectivity, iPad has the same options as the Tab, but the camera installed must be a real disappointment: only 0.7MP and a much smaller resolution than the Tab’s. Also there is no secondary camera either.

Mobile Phone 3 On May - 27 - 2011ADD COMMENTS

This is a pretty old (being pretty popular in 2003 and for a few years there after) mobile phone to still have and use daily, but some people out there might still do it . If you want to see a whole “portfolio” of this mobile phone, this page has it and it also contains images of the various images in the menu.

Speaking of the display, it had 5 lines, 65,000 colors and was an active TFT type of display, with a size of 1.5 inches, and a squared shape -if the image is not clear enough. The phone book was pretty large for that time, holding 1,000 of your contacts which were stored either in the 6MB of internal memory or on the MMC card. Nokia 6230 was sold with such a card of 32MB.

Nobody is really sure how they survived without Bluetooth or without the 3G network, but they did and after all there are very few mobile phones with a WLAN connection. The only camera installed is VGA with the resolution of 640×480 pixels which might seem very little compared to other phones, but it had to do. The users could enjoy the MP3 and the MP4 players if they wanted some entertainment, listen to the radio (FM), play some games or download some more of them.

The high resolution of the camera -1600×1200 pixels- will further proof that the image is as good as it can get at 2MP.
