Have you ever stopped to think about why Intel is so present in our everyday gadgets than AMD? Is it the fact that they make faster processors than the competition? No, it's not that, it's the money they have, that allows them to push their products to consumers via ad campaigns like the one they're preparing for the next gen Oak Trail Atom CPUs, which will debut in Q1 2011. And they're doing it right, by sponsoring vendors like ASUS, Acer, Dell, Samsung and Toshiba to advertise products powered...

One of the most interesting iPad alternative is definitely the Samsung Galaxy Tab, which will deput in US this week as a 7 inch tablet. Samsung is hoping to sell a couple of millions of those in the months to come and is even working on a higher diagonal, 10 inch tablet Galaxy TAB which should appear in stores in the first half of next year. Some say it will use an AMOLED display, just like the Samsung Galaxy S bestseller (3 millions sold in US only this year), but others are pointing towards an...

One of the ways a company can stand and say "we're playing with the big league" is not by making great products but by thinking of the future and present concepts that raise consumer interest. Samsung did it recently with its patent application for a dual sided touchscreen tablet. The concept is not that different to the Motorola Backflip smartphone or the initial prototype of Notion Ink Adam, but there's a pretty important thing that makes all the difference.Samsung didn't imagine the rear ...

Samsung is yet another big manufacturer that has to enter the tablet arena. Sure rumors have hit the web about them preparing for a slate launch, but since no official info was released all we have is guesses, nothing sure. Before jumping to the next rumors let's see in short what we know about Samsung's tablet plans, consisting for now of the 7 inch Galaxy Tab running Android 2.2, basically a bigger version of the Galaxy i9000 S smarthphone. A 1.2 GHz Cortex A8 CPU is rumored and front/back fac...

Remember the Samsung 7 inch tablet, the Galaxy Tab? Now we have more than a picture, but not much more: a blurry video that reveals the P1000 naming for the filmed device. Apparently there will be more than one product in the Galaxy Tab lineup, as the showcased device didn't feature the TouchWiz UI and had different shaped buttons on the bottom of the screen, dedicated to the Android OS. Instead of TouchWiz there was a custom Samsung interface that resembles the one found in the iPhone, making t...

We've told you a while ago about Samsung's plans to launch a 7 inch touch tablet, called Galaxy Tab. Well, it seems the real name is Samsung Galaxy Tape, and the 7 inch screen is indeed a Super AMOLED one, which means great color accuracy and outdoor viewing, putting the iPad in the second place (at least on paper).The other news is that we now have even more info about what's  inside, and the news is great: Android 2.2 Froyo and an A8 1.2 GHz CPU are on for the official launch, sometime th...

What's cooking doc, says the Consumer? Samsung says: Galaxy Tab, a sexy slate tablet (sexy in the sense that it copies the iPad) with a custom TouchWiz UI interface on top of Android. It's like a Galaxy S i9000, but enlarged to 7 inches, just like the iPad is an oversized iPad. Of course we knew Samsung was working on a tablet, we knew it would be called S-Pad, but apparently we didn't knew everything.Not that we know now, but it seems the screen will be the hottest piece of the puzzle, some...

The fact that Samsung is working on its own touch tablet is nothing new, as we've covered the subject a few times here. We now almost know the name of the Samsung tablet, S-Pad, and the official launch date sometime in August. We also know that the S-Pad will be a 7 inch tablet with a Super AMOLED screen which will surely look gorgeous, if you can afford it, as those kind of screens are very expensive.The Samsung S-Pad will be powered by the Android OS and will feature things we're accustome...

It's not the first time we talk about Samsung's plans to offer a similar slate type tablet to the iPad this year. We don't know much about it, but now that we know Samsung is going to produce some 3 million displays for Apple to use in its iPad it seems obvious to me they'll use this type of display for themselves too, so expect a 9.7 inch tablet from Samsung.Other rumors state that Samsung will use the Android OS in its tablet, not Window 7 like it was thought before. This seems more logic ...

We've been saying a few months ago that Samsung has some plans for tablets in 2010. It is quite normal considering that everyone is thinking about them, both consumers and manufacturers. This is a market opportunity no one affords to miss, not even a giant like Samsung.Recently, Emmanuele Silanesu, national product and marketing manager for Samsung Australia’s IT division, made a statement saying that we'll see a Samsung slate type tablet on market in the H2 2010, with a clear focus on co...
