Samsung Galaxy Note – Phone or Tablet?

The difference between smartphones and tablets is begining to blur with the arrival of the Galaxy Note from Samsung. At 5.3″, it is larger than your standard 4 inch smartphone. But it is smaller than the smaller tablets of 7 inches. So which is it? Is it a handset? Is it a tablet? Usually there isn’t too much argument, but in the case of the Galaxy Note it may very well depend on the size of your hands. Design Measuring 147x83x10mm (weighing 178g) and with a screen size of 5.3 inches it’s very much on the borderline between a massive phone, like HTC’s Sensation XL (4.7-inch screen), or a mini tablet, like Samsung’s Galaxy Tab (various sizes, but the smallest has a 7-inch screen). Samsung seems pretty sure it’s a handset though, since it’s given it Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread for its operating system, rather than the tablet-optimised version 3.2, Honeycomb. The mammoth 5.3-inch WXGA screen is a wonder to behold. The pixel count of 1280×800 would be impressive enough on its own but with Samsung’s Super AMOLED technology it’s fantastically bright and vivid, with extremely deep, immersive blacks, drawing your eyes into pictures, web pages and videos. With 285 pixels [...]

Nook Tablet Review –Take a look!

Since we offered a review of the Kindle Fire, we wanted to give equal time to the Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet. Interestingly enough, both of these android powered tablets hit the market at about the same time. You’ve read about the Kindle Fire, now let’s check out what the experts say about the Nook Tablet Computer. Take a look at the Nook Tablet Just in time to take advantage of the Kindle Fire let down, Barnes and Noble’s similar idea, the Nook Tablet, has hit reviewer’s hands. And so far, it’s been a pleasant surprise. When B&N first revealed the Tablet, it didn’t look like it would outshine the cheaper device. Yet, when people actually used the Kindle Fire, it didn’t impress: The cheap pricetag translated to the device. And about a week later it’s having some app problems. Just in time to woo these let-down would-be Kindle Fire-philes, the Nook Tablet has hit the market. And overall, that tablet functions better than its rival. Unfortunately, that might not matter much. Because the few ways the Kindle Fire is better matter more. The Nook Tablet is better than the Kindle Fire in the following ways. Better design Neither the Nook Tablet [...]

Lenovo’s New Android Tablets

Lenovo, which makes great computers, is working on new android tablets for those in the market to buy android tablets. Their new tablets, ranging in 5, 7 and 10 inch versions, will put a new spin in the market to buy android tablets. Here’s what CNET had to say about the new Lenovo offerings: Lenovo Announces New Android Tablet Computers Lenovo is hoping to shake up the tablet market with three new devices scheduled to hit its home base of China as early as December. Ranging in size from 5 to 10 inches, the new tablets will be branded under Lenovo’s LePad name in China but will be known as the IdeaPad in other countries, follow-ups to the current IdeaPad K1. At a mere 5 inches, the LePad S2005 is somewhat of a cross between a phone and a tablet in size, prompting Engadget to dub the device a tabletphone. Outfitted with Android 2.3, the S2005 is powered by a Qualcomm dual-core 1.2GHz chip, according to Lenovo’s Chinese Web site (English translation). The screen offers an 800×480-pixel display with a 178-degree viewing angle. A 1.3-megapixel camera graces the front, while a 5-megapixel camera can be found in back. The S2005 [...]

Kindle Fire Review

Tablet computers have taken the world by storm. Ipads and android tablets are everywhere. You know you want one — but do you want the $500+ price tag? Well, the Kindle Fire and Barnes and Noble Nook, which started out as just e-readers, now do many of the functions of tablets — for less than half the price! Check out the Kindle Fire: The Amazon Kindle Fire has been much talked about because Amazon is taking a “good enough” approach to competing with established tablet players like the Samsung or Apple. Many prospect Kindle Fire buyers would not spend $300 more to get a high-end tablet, so Amazon is not really trying to steal share, but it tries to make the tablet market bigger, faster.The real question is: what can the Kindle Fire do for you, who is it for, and should you get one? Lets take a look… At first glance, it looks like Amazon has chosen to let the Kindle Fire imitate the design of the Blackberry Playbook. But the resemblance is only superficial even if their thickness are quasi-identical. At 413g the Kindle Fire is 30% lighter than the iPad 2. Yet, it feels relatively heavy in [...]
