Samsung GALAXY Tab Pro Reviews

CrunchGear‘s review Edit

Ok, Mactards. Come on back now. Let’s close this thing up. Our esteemed friends at Giz found this to be a train wreck but I don’t agree. This device is what it is: a small, fairly powerful tablet for Android lovers. I’d love to play to my own bias and state that the iPad is unequivocally better but I can’t. This is for a different consumer and based on a different architecture. It is a good product, a little big, and an able device for media playback, e-book reading, and general email productivity.

The Galaxy Tab is a beautiful product with features that will make iPad owners envious, but its in-between size and possible carrier commitments hold it back from broad appeal.

Phone Arena‘s review Edit

As it seems, the Samsung Galaxy Tab reigns on top of the Android tablet market right now with its solid performance and up-to-date experience. For Samsung's pride and joy, its remarkable ascension to the top of the Android tablet market is quite fitting, but it still requires some fine tuning to truly make it a standout competitor outside of the Android space.

Phone Arena‘s review Edit

In the final analysis, it's not really a tough call when it comes to choosing the better tablet. Given that it all falls down to what your particular needs are, we can conclude that the Samsung Galaxy Tab's main advantage here is its way more compact size. It makes it easier to pick up, handle and carry around, which isn't a characteristic that should be overlooked at all. Another significant advantage of the Galaxy Tab is its ability to visualize Flash content within the browser and open Flash-based sites. Finally, it can take pictures and videos for you through its 3.2MP camera with flash, and you can even place a phone call, if you have the EU version.

MobileBurn‘s review Edit

I like Samsung's Galaxy Tab, mostly because I like Android and Samsung's TouchWiz 3.0 system. I had very high expectations for the Galaxy Tab after first using it since it offers everything Samsung's Galaxy S smartphones do, but in a tablet form factor. Unfortunately, some things get lost in the translation to a 7-inch display. I still like the device, and can live with the battery life, but just don't think it offers much more than a stretched out smartphone experience, and that isn't worth the asking price. Other people might love it, but the overall experience leaves me unimpressed.

Notebookcheck‘s review Edit

After Apple set off the tablet craze with the iPad, all the big names in laptop manufacturing have followed suit with their own models in various sizes. Word is currently going around that the Samsung Galaxy Tab is the iPad's fiercest competitor for control of the market and threatens to knock Apple off its throne. We've thoroughly reviewed the Android 2.2 device including comparisons to the Apple iPad and the Dell Streak.

If the Apple iPad is a bit too big (and its features too limited) for you, you’ll be pleasantly surprised with this 7-inch media tablet's size, performance, and versatility.

The combination of Android and Samsung's hardware makes this tablet at least as good as the iPad, but the relatively high price could be hard to swallow.

Engadget‘s review Edit

After spending the last couple of days with the Galaxy Tab, we can confidently say it's the best Android tablet on the market. Now, that's not saying much given the state of the Android competition, but we can also assuredly say that the Tab is the first true competitor to Apple's iPad. Its crisp display, compact form factor, touch-friendly software and dual cameras undoubtedly have what it takes to win over the average tablet seeker. However, we still have some reservations right now.

Phone Arena‘s review Edit

In the purely hardware aspect of things, we have absolutely no complaints about the Samsung Galaxy Tab, except for its easy to press by accident capacitive keys. What holds it back, so to speak, is Android. Don't get us wrong - the system is fine for the most part, and with Samsung's personalizations, it's gotten even better, not to mention suitable for a tablet. However, we found its browser to perform not as smoothly as needed, especially when there's Flash content. The other drawback we see is Android Market. The amount of apps you'll find there is more than ample, but the quality of available software is still not high enough. That's why we consider the Samsung Galaxy Tab a very good tablet, if you are not a power user.

www.trustedreviews.com‘s review Edit

The Galaxy Tab is a gamble, pure and simple. For Samsung it has taken a gamble to try and beat its rivals to market with an iPad competitor that is currently a big phone not a tablet. For users it is a gamble knowing real Android 3.0 tablets should arrive in the next few months. On paper the Galaxy Tab represents a smaller, neater and more open alternative to iPad (itself a flawed device) and we wish it was. In reality it is an uncomfortable phone/tablet hybrid with a sky high price that will likely be eclipsed before Christmas. If you absolutely had your heart set on the Galaxy Tab by all means try one for yourself, but we'd suggest being patient and putting your money away.

We suspect the Samsung Galaxy Tab will be the best of the Android tablets, but it lacks the slickness of an iPad and is far too expensive.

LAPTOP Magazine‘s review Edit

Samsung deserves credit for being the first to company to truly challenge the iPad with a piece of hardware that's well designed and easier to take with you..The ability to make video calls and free GPS navigation also shouldn't be overlooked, as well as the apps Samsung bundles that are optimized for tablet use. Still, the Galaxy Tab isn't for everyone.

SlashGear‘s review Edit

There’ll be plenty of people left unconvinced by the first Galaxy Tab, but Samsung seems willing to pick off different user groups with different models along the way. If the iPad’s iTunes dependence, the controlled nature of the iOS ecosystem and the Apple slate’s sheer size have put you off, Android’s relative openness and the Tab’s relative scale are highly appealing. Perhaps most telling, with both the iPad and the Galaxy Tab on the table, we found ourselves reaching for the Samsung for quickly checking email and browsing. That might change once iOS 4.2 is released for the iPad – early reports are certainly glowing – but for now the Apple behemoth has some serious competition.

Pocket-lint‘s review Edit

What you do get from the Samsung Galaxy Tab is a fully featured device and once you get the chance to settle down and load it with apps and get things running how you want them, you’ll find it a great companion. Slightly higher specs – more RAM – would have sweetened the deal, because unlike your mobile phone, you’ll probably expect your tablet to have a longer shelf life. Fingers crossed that prices fall then, because price seems to be the biggest barrier.

PC Magazine‘s review Edit

With solid, well-designed hardware, the Samsung Galaxy Tab for Sprint is the first viable Android-based competitor to the Apple iPad. But so far, it doesn't have apps that will compel you to buy one.

GSMArena‘s review Edit

The Samsung P1000 Galaxy Tab is one pretty sleek device that suits its intended purpose perfectly. It's not running a proper desktop OS so those of you that hoped to throw away their laptops or netbooks after purchasing the Galaxy Tab are in no luck.

Phone Arena‘s review Edit

The Samsung Galaxy Tab seems to position itself on the forefront of the new tablet market, with only the iPad to compete with it as of now. Both tablets are pretty much neck and neck right now, with the iPad having the advantages of being first, a bigger screen, as well as more and better software, while the Galaxy Tab offers you the full-blown web with its Flash Player 10.1 support, built-in camera and phone functionality. Only time will tell how things will develop, while we witness the launch of Samsung's Galaxy Tab in the middle of September.

PC Advisor‘s review Edit

Samsung's Galaxy Tab is just the beginning of Android's entry into the tablet battle. Motorola is expected to have a high-end Android tablet on the market sometime in the coming months; the latest rumours point to it being a 10-inch device with Google's as-of-yet unreleased Android 3.0 operating system. Samsung itself is believed to have additional Android tablets in the works, too, including 8- and 10-inch versions of the Galaxy Tab described above. Even Google may be unveiling its own tablet before long, though it could very well end up running Chrome OS instead of Android.
