Ohhh nooos looks like an iPad

 

[Columbo]

Thats a shockingly low screen res by today's standard.

Common for a 7'' tab, but yes, surprised it's not higher.

 

[Sho]

I like it. I wana get a Tablet soon.. This might be it.

I saw the article on engadget for this and got a bit excited, then I read the specs

I can see it being cheap though, possibly a competitor to the kindle fire price wise?

 

[sja360]

i hope its cheap otherwise it looks to me like they are re-hashing old tech with new software and design.
im a bit shocked there hasnt been more of a upgrade towards quad core and better resolutions.

Must surely be a budget model as the galaxy tab 7.7 comes with a nice proper metal back and the 1280x800 res and same cpu and gpu of the galaxy note; http://www.androidnz.net/2012/02/galaxy-tab-77-real-user-review-part-1.html

Why does this even have a new name? Its just a tab plus with ICS; which the tab plus will get anyway. Mediocre at best.

I cant help but thinking, if your gonna get a tablet,might as well be a big one, i.e 10.1"

 

[grudas]

SUE EVERYTHING

 

[P3N9U1N]

I think samsung is pushing its luck abit. Apple already had a go at them for the 10.1, now there showing this off. Risky move

 

[sarge78]

Unless I've missed something it's just a rebranded/tweaked Galaxy Tab 7+ running ICS.

Shameful.

 

[sunny007]

Samsung just fail with there tablets ! Can't even release the 7.7 properly, and they are announcing more :s

My next Tablet is going to be either a Sub £300 7" Tegra 3 Quad Core with 1280 x 800 running ICS or I'll just buy an iPad 3, Would prefer a decent Android though as I already Have a iPhone 4 (which I love)

 

[HAz]

I do hope that is not an ear piece speaker at the top? Who in their right Mind would use that like a phone, talk about going back to the 80's

Far better SoC(4460?), twice the RAM.... hardly a rebrand.

1ghz processor of an unnamed variety? 1000x600 res? It's gonna be cheap, probably a competitor to other cheap ICS tablets coming out soon. Personally, i'd skip this in favour of a Tegra3 variant in Q2 this year.

if you have an iPhone 4 then it doesnt make sense to get an Android... you have already invested in a different ecosystem. Stick to Apple for a seamless experience, just as i'd reccommend anyone who has already invested in Android stick to Android.

He obviously meant the original 7" tab... this is not a rehash of the 7.0 Plus, it's a budget successor to the original.

 

[kona786]

Richdog it's a dual core processor and why would it not be the same price as the tab plus?

I know he meant the original tab but why is he comparing it to that when I clearly said plus. His mistake.
