An overview of the Samsung Galaxy Tab

[HEXUS]

Scott got hold of a Samsung Galaxy Tab so he thought he'd film his first impressions.

Watch the show.

Scott, almost 7 minutes of nothing but a photo gallery.

What version of Android? Can any app from android market run on this? What is the actually battery life like (18 holes of golf doesn't really explain!) What comes in the box?

I also think Samsung's biggest problem with this , is price.... You can get Android tablets for £150 from Amazon. Samsungs asking price is a piss take of Apple's pricing.

Android 2.2 I think that was mentioned. Price is an issue, but wait till you see one of those amazing £150 android tablets. They have 400mhz cpu's for starters...The Galaxy Tab IS expensive. it's also a phone, has 2 x cameras, microSD slot all of which the iPad lacks. It's lighter and more portable. You pay your money and take's ya pick. I think it's issue with pricing is like this, I spoke to a mate of mine and reckons the Samsung has 0% carrier support at moment. The price is high because the carriers aren't picking up the tab (pardon the pun) unlike others items. This is why it's expensive! Other countries have the Galaxy Tab on much better terms, but locked into contracts....
