Samsung Galaxy Tab™ 10.1" Wi-Fi Features

A screen so lifelike you'll want to touch it.

The Tab's WXGA-TFT touchscreen redefines high resolution. Every image has amazing color, radiance, and clarity to capture all the detail of real life. Every letter of text is razor sharp. Video chatting is more like talking face-to-face. Now when you watch a movie with $100 million in special effects, you get the full impact. And when your finger touches the responsive screen, every function is smooth as silk.

Performs at a higher level. So you can, too.

Surf the internet just like on a PC, and get the full enjoyment of Adobe® Flash® Player compatible sites, games, and videos. The Dual core 1GHz processor runs every function and app effortlessly. A full gig of ram gives you plenty of memory.

The Tab's Android™ 3.1, Honeycomb platform is the proven gold standard to perform the full range of Google services like optimized Gmail™ and Google Maps™.

Does several things at once. Sound familiar?

Multi-tasking is the new normal. None of us have time to do only one thing at a time. The Tab keeps you up-to-the-second with widgets and live panels that update constantly. And you can have more than one window open at a time to bounce around on.

Access the Android Market™ for thousands of apps that keep your life moving with the speed you need. Sometimes your Tab is for work, sometimes it's for play, and sometimes it's hard to tell the difference.

Take gaming to the next level.

The Tab 10.1 is gaming heaven. It has the speed and processing power to run any Android or Adobe® Flash® Player compatible game with no buffering, stalling, downloads, or plug-ins. And the screen shows every dragon's scale, every gold doubloon, and every sword glint with eye-popping, heart-pounding detail.

You can't be too thin.

It's only 0.34 inch from front to back, which is about as thin as a typical ballpoint pen. The Tab also weighs just 1.25 lbs. – so light that you'll hardly notice it in your briefcase or purse.

The body is sleek yet easy to grip, and fits comfortably in your hand. It's the perfect portable device to take anywhere and connect through any Wi-Fi hotspot without monthly service fees or carrier contracts.

• Live Panel: Get easy access to commonly used applications—Task Manager, Calendar, World Clock, Pen Memo, Calculator, Music—which overlay on current activity for powerful multi-taskingFeatures a magazine-like widget view to get immediate access to weather, social updates, email, news, etc., right on the home screen.

• Indicator Quick Panel: Quickly toggle on/off Wi-Fi, notifications, sound, brightness and settings.

In addition, it's actually slightly lighter than the iPad 2 but is about half an inch longer and a quarter inch wider. However, the most intriguing detail the 10.1 isn't what it has but what it doesn't have. The 10.1 sports a clean design with no mini USB or mini or micro HDMI ports. What you do get is a universal port that does allow you to connect to a computer via USB, speakers on either side of the tablet, a headphone jack, volume rocker, power, and front and rear-facing cameras.

So far, the only disappointing design decision is the plastic back which makes the tablet feel less solid than the iPad 2 and kinda looks like cheap kitchen wallpaper. Donald Bell did mention that he thought it was cute, though. To each his own, I guess.
