Apple iPad is the king of the tablet PC segment, but it now has new competitor on the block. The Galaxy Tab is Samsung’s answer to the Apple iPad, which has ruled the roost in the segment ever since its launch.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab has such an array of features that it could give the Apple iPad a run for its money. The display of the Samsung Galaxy Tab is quite small when compared with the iPad at 7 inches. There is a belief that iPad is a bit large to being the ultimate table. Hence, the Galaxy Tab wins over when it comes to portability and ease of use due to its much smaller dimensions. The display albeit small is great to look at and offers a great viewing experience.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab is provided with dual cameras, one on the front and the other at the back. The rear camera can be used for photography and it’s 3-megapixel while the front one can be used for video conferencing and is a 1.3-megapixel one. This is a major advantage when compared with the iPad as these are available on it. The tablet has a 1 GHZ processor and it runs on Android 2.2 OS. As a result, this device can support high-end applications and allow you to watch Full HD content. Samsung have given this tablet a powerful 4000 mAh battery which offers more than 5 hours of continuous movie playback.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab can be bought in either the 16GB or 32GB memory specs. MicroSD card slots provided facilitate the memory expansion to a whopping 32GB. After initially pricing the tablet at around £700, Samsung has been forced to lower its prices to keep up with the iPad and now it can be purchased for around £600.
