Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 coming to T-Mobile October 26

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 coming to T-Mobile October 26

Posted on Oct 04, 2011 by MG1

Some internal T-Mobile documents are indicating their version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 will be going on sale October 26 (barring any delays). T-Mobile will be joining multiple retailers here in the US who currently offer the popular razor-thin slate.
This is pretty awesome news for the T-Mo faithful, especially given the legal troubles that Samsung and Apple are currently entangled in around the world. Right now, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is seeing injunctions in Australia and Germany. Honestly, consumers living in the United States should probably be feeling a bit fortunate that they are still able to get their hands on this beautiful piece of hardware without any problems. Really, we feel ...

T-Mobile to launch Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 on October 26th and rollout 6 devices on November 2nd

Posted on Oct 03, 2011 by MG3

T-Mobile reps have a ton of work ahead of them this month and next. A leaked calendar shows all of the things that employees of the nation's fourth largest carrier have to do in October. The first thing, not even mentioned in any of the leaked documents, is to answer calls from angry customers calling to find out why the carrier is the only one of the top four mobile operators in the U.S. not to offer the Apple iPhone. Earlier Saturday, we showed you Radio Shack's inventory system which displayed versions of the iPhone 5 for Verizon, AT&T and Sprint.

Samsung Gives Portability Another Try with Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus

Samsung Gives Portability Another Try with Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus

Posted on Oct 03, 2011 by MG3

The original 7-inch Galaxy Tab wasn't all that impressive. It was a premature release with an inadequate SoC running a version of Android intended for smartphones, not tablets. Since then Samsung has put forth some of the most impressive Honeycomb based tablet designs with its Galaxy Tab 10.1 and 8.9. Today, Samsung is expanding the lineup to include a new 7-inch tablet: the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus.

Samsung announces the Galaxy Tab 8.9 and two new Galaxy Players

Samsung announces the Galaxy Tab 8.9 and two new Galaxy Players

Posted on Sep 27, 2011 by MG1

Samsung continues to build out its Galaxy family with the announcement of the Galaxy Tab 8.9, and Galaxy Player 4.0 and 5.0. We’ve been waiting on the 8.9 to debut for some time now, but we’re certainly glad to see Samsung finally bringing its media players to the U.S.
At this point in the game, Samsung is clearly the most successful Android player today. With its ever-growing Galaxy line of phones, tablets, and now media players, Samsung alone has been able to create a real brand behind the Android name unlike any other manufacturer today. That said, these efforts are also an attempt to take a bite out of Apple’s success. Sure, call the players (and every other Android tablet for that matte...

Best Buy shopper gets to take home the Samsung GALAXY Tab 8.9 before the masses

Best Buy shopper gets to take home the Samsung GALAXY Tab 8.9 before the masses

Posted on Sep 22, 2011 by MG1

An anonymous Best Buy shopper told Android Central about how he ended up taking home an un-released Samsung GALAXY Tab 8.9. As we reported, that tablet is now up for pre-order at Best Buy. But let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. Anyway, the subject of the story had purchased the Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 from the big box retailer, but was disappointed to see that his tablet suffered from a manufacturing defect. So he decided to return the tablet from whence it came.
So far, there is nothing strange or unusual to the story. When the Best Buy rep inside the store took the defective GALAXY Tab 10.1 to the back room to exchange it with a new unit, he accidentally came out with a Samsung GALA...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 priced at $469.99

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 priced at $469.99

Posted on Sep 20, 2011 by MG1

Are you looking for an Android tablet but don’t want to settle for the usual 7 and 10.1 inch varieties? Worry not, as the Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 has received its official pricing for the US and should land on shelves very soon.
The Galaxy Tab 8.9 is just as powerful than its 10.1 inch brother, but ships with the obvious smaller display, and because of that we weren’t surprised to hear that the price of the 8.9 isn’t much cheaper than the 10 incher. Starting at $469.99, the Tab 8.9 is virtually identical to its larger variant but can be wielded in one hand and weighs only 447 grams. While it may not be as comfortable as holding a 7 inch tablet in one hand, the Tab 8.9 is much more manageable ...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 available for pre-order from Best Buy

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 available for pre-order from Best Buy

Posted on Sep 16, 2011 by MG1

Though Samsung has yet to announce retail availability of its Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Honeycomb tablet, that hasn't stopped big box retailer Best Buy from listing the tablet as being available for pre-order.
The Galaxy Tab 8.9 was originally unveiled at CTIA back in March, but it has yet to hit the market, despite its bigger brother, the Galaxy Tab 10.1, having been released earlier this summer. The 8.9 features an 8.9-inch, 1280 x 800 pixel display and an NVIDIA Tegra 2 dual-core processor clocked at 1GHz. It is essentially the same thing as the 10.1, but with a slightly smaller screen.
The version that Best Buy is listing for pre-order is not the LTE model that was announced at the end of l...

Ex-Samsung Electronics manager pleads guilty in insider trading probe with Apple iPad components

Ex-Samsung Electronics manager pleads guilty in insider trading probe with Apple iPad components

Posted on Sep 15, 2011 by MG1

A former employee of Samsung Electronics said he indeed supplied screen components shipping information to a hedge fund manager about the upcoming Apple iPad last year.
Samsung is making some of the screens and other gear for the first iPad, so Suk-Joo Hwang was lured by promises for flying models on a private jet during weekend trips to Iceland in exchange for insider info about Apple's upcoming disruption device. We kid, but Wall Street somehow got under the guy's skin, and after 14 years of humble work for Samsung Electronics USA, he was trapped by the necessity to install a granite countertop in his old kitchen.
The guy has been granted immunity from the New York prosecutor, in order to ...

Samsung appeals the Galaxy Tab 10.1 ban in Germany

Samsung appeals the Galaxy Tab 10.1 ban in Germany

Posted on Sep 15, 2011 by MG1

The Regional Court in Duesseldorf has confirmed that Samsung filed an appeal against the injunction that prohibits its German branch from marketing and selling the Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android tablet that was enforced last week. The injunction, which puts a pause on sales until a verdict has been reached if Samsung is infringing on Apple patents with its tablet, was upheld last Friday, and Samsung's lawyers are obviously not wasting their time.
Samsung has ways to circumvent the ban, but they might come at a price, and it obviously prefers the legal route, at least until the current stock of tablets flies out of the shelves at major retailers. Henrik Timman, who is part of the Rospatt Osten Pross...

Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 with T-Mobile bands on board gets approved by the FCC

Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 with T-Mobile bands on board gets approved by the FCC

Posted on Sep 14, 2011 by MG1

Currently, if you want to get a Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 with connectivity features going beyond the scope of Wi-Fi, grabbing an LTE model from Verizon is your only option. However, there seems to be a chance of an alternative popping up on T-Mobile's shelves, if the device that we just came across ever sees the light of day.
A Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 model with support for T-Mobile's 4G bands has been approved by the FCC, meaning that the nation's fourth largest carrier might have yet another 4G slate joining its lineup in the near future. Listed with its SGH-T859 model name, the tablet has the exact same dimensions as the Wi-Fi-only version of the GALAXY Tab 10.1 and can run on T-Mobile's 1...

Apple Successfully Blocks Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 From Germany

Apple Successfully Blocks Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 From Germany

Posted on Sep 12, 2011 by MG1

Apple and Samsung have been in a legal tussle for quite some time now, but it looks like Apple still has the advantage as the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 has been banned from sale in Germany. A German court recently decided to uphold its temporary ban on the Android tablet set last month. But that’s not all for Samsung:
Apple, the maker of the iPad, won a second injunction at the same court last week, forcing Samsung to pull the new Galaxy Tab 7.7 out of the IFA consumer-electronics show in Berlin. The legal battle between Cupertino, California-based Apple and its closest rival in tablet computers is intensifying as an increasing number of consumers use devices such as tablets and smartphones to...

Apple injunction against Galaxy Tab 10.1 upheld in Germany

Apple injunction against Galaxy Tab 10.1 upheld in Germany

Posted on Sep 09, 2011 by MG3

Apple has re-secured its injunction against the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 in Germany, with the Düsseldorf courts upholding its existing ban on sales. In what was reportedly a short sitting this morning, NetbookNews reports, the judge deemed that Samsung’s “smooth, simple surfaces” of the 10.1-inch Honeycomb tablet copied the minimalist aesthetic of the iPad, a design that Apple secured back in 2004.

Posted on Sep 09, 2011 by MG1

After being announced earlier this summer for Telus, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android tablet has been launched in stores today, and is also being offered in competing Rogers stores across Canada. Telus is offering it for $649.99 with no strings attached, while Rogers is asking $679.99, but has an alternative to buy it for $349.99 on a three-year plan.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is about as close to an Android version of the iPad 2 as you can get.
