Only one trailer this week, no doubt a ton will be released as soon as I press ‘publish’, but it’s a goody for Mortal Kombat featuring music from Disturbed. Turn up the volume and rock out.
Samsung Galaxy Tab
0 CommentsSeptember 2, 2010 – 11:51 am
Samsung have finally unveiled the Samsung Galaxy Tab, their first tablet device and the first major competitior to the iPad.
Appearance wise, the Galaxy Tab is like a big Galaxy S Phone, coming in at 7inches and 380g – smaller and lighter than iPad. The device is powered by Android 2.2 and can even make phonecalls – can not wait to see someone hold this beast up to their ear.
As it is powered by Android 2.2 it can play flash videos and visit flash websites as well as being compatible with the Android Marketplace and the thousands of apps already available.
Samsung have built an eBook reader and media player for the device and video wise it can playback files encoded in DivX, XviD, MPEG4, H.263, and H.264.
There are two cameras, the front facing one is 3 MP and has a flash while the front facing 1.3 MP camera can support video calls over 3G.
Looks like a nice piece of kit, but is it just an oversized android phone? Would you carry two devices or just stick to the phone?
