  • Galaxy tab is 7 inches and the Galaxy S is 4 inches large and they have a different design . There are also specification differences on the devices. Galaxy tab has an higher resolution 1080p x 600 if i remember right(Galaxy S 800x 400) The Galaxy tab has TFT screen(Galaxy S Super Amoled) Galaxy Tab camera is 3 mp and 1.3 mp on the front(Galaxy S 5 mp and Vga on the front). And for the speed they have the same Hummingbird Cortex A8 processors.

    Have a nice day :)

  • Is there any difference between a galaxy tab and a galaxy s phone

  • is it that hard to admit this is utter shit ? 

  • Comment removed

  • i triad to see the movie not the tablet when i saw star wars

  • GET..'A;:'FREE,;'IPAD.:.OR,:,K­INDLE..'

    WWW.KINDLEVSIPADX.TK

    SIMPLY,:'COPY,'`&;.'PASTE;'.

  • @naruto4858 yes.

  • @naruto4858 Yes it has both front and back facing cameras.

  • Nice.

  • @QuyannaChanel Heres how it goes::::

    iPad<Samsung Galaxy Tab<iPad2<Motorola Xoom<Samsung galaxy 10.1 tablet.

    That is brutally accurate... selling my iPad before iPad2 is announced.

  • I like this divice and I want to buy it 

  • do we know if this will be getting honeycomb?

  • @abrigo74 until today this remains a Mistry , some say yes and some answers no... i have one and i am crossing my fingers :S , otherwise ill just wait until the release of the samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 tablet which comes with honeycomb out of the box and then ill sell my Original Galaxy tab and by that I dont like screens that are 9" or bigger

  • But can it fit in my pocket?( seriously can it cuase at sckool they can see my lil htc hero screen n upgrading to this can jus be asking to get my phone tooken away:(

  • why is it i'm finding that no one is talking about its phone capabilities. Are the states blocking phone usage? If they are, i will not buy another phone, gps, mp4, vid game system until they allow phone usage for tablets. WTF!

  • @Tekkhan Yes USA took the function of Phone capability from their provider specific Tablets but thanx to the people over XDA-Developers its possible to hack it ;)

  • I just had a thought. Should you come to own this thing and an android phone waiting for the constant updates will drive you utterly crazy with anticipation. Me thinks I see this device contributing to a bunch of future nut house admissions. I can here them now. "The skype is falling! The skype is falling!"

  • The only way to bring a device like this to true life is to give it telephone cabability. Otherwise its little more than a toy.

  • The iPad is just a big iPod touch, the galaxy tab actually have many different features apart from a smartphone. Just the fact that the tab has gadgets and is customizable, is a win...

  • What if you sit down with the tab in your pocket?

  • all these things look like giant phones that are pointlesss

  • @HolyMilke its basically used for email reader/ alternative carry laptop... unfortunately the buyers never heard of netbooks.... which offers all that and more

  • this thing is amazing!!

  • Another piece of shit Apple ipad fanboy.

  • would you really use as a phone if you could?????

  • Fit in your back pocket? Are you serious? $400 poking out of your back pocket.  Yeah. Make sure you have your cell phone with you to report your stolen tablet.

  • @SoooooRich

    ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Big LOL! Too Right!

  • angry birds on this. FTW

  • @crywolves Like I said, little more than a toy. But this is too expensive. Heck, for the money PS3 costs less and can do more in terms of gaming, despite lack of portability. Everything else this thing can do can be done by an EVO or a Galaxy S phone.  It's a bit redundant 7" not withstanding.

  • 0:35 oversized ipod.........lol

  • Hey guys in management study has taught us about imitation it's a part of a business, this is a competition between a product so that's unnecessary for arguing such thing, because they just looking for what the customer preference.

  • Hold the Galaxy 2 inches closer to your eyes and, hey presto, the screen becomes the same size as the ipad.

  • can you call people with this

  • Another piece of shit Apple ipad clone wannabe.

  • @tom11zz884 ignorant piece of shitt! Get your apple-fanboy ass out of a box and realize that its better than the shitty ipad. I know steve jobbs asures you its all magical and shit but the galaxy tab owns the competition. Im sorry that your developer is a techno nazi and banns certain things on your device, but hey thats your choice. And what you can't even use flash? I think enough is said, plus I'm going to be using tihs tihng as a phone. I think you just got served. Have a nice day ass whipe.

  • @DaleEWilliamson So right, Apple kids needa get there head out of there ass. Its like that South Park episode with all the smug in the air...

  • galexy tab is so much better easier to cary PLUS wifi ANYWHERE

  • ill wait till htc makes a better version of evo 4g

  • the white is beautiful 

  • When is the phone galaxy tab coming? Anyone know? I will definitely sell my iPad 3G 16gb for it.

  • @mrmagoo662 its alredy out man

  • @Sctartaglia I know that the european is out in Europe, but when is the phone version coming hereN

  • @mrmagoo662 Oh dont know that, miss read your comment the first time.

  • its an over sized samsung fascinate 

  • The Galaxy Tab is worth buying!

  • its a big iphone and a small ipad

  • @kokoka852 i was just about to say that:D

  • @kokoka852 it is not. -9000 internets to you, sir.

  • Best review I've seen yet. Good Job Mr. Bell. Take the rest of the day off. You deserve it for technological honesty. Something you'll never find on Gizmodo.

  • @UnrealGlider well, now cnet changed the name. before they changed it, the title of this video was just a random number with about ten digits :D

  • It's Waaaaaay better then the iPad ......and cheaper and more portable

  • Never Se Me WIth That Big Phone Tha Inbarresing But It Nice Tho Shouldent Be A Phone

  • fucking bastards copying shit!

  • @xnf90x2 how so?

  • would this be available with out having a contract and use it kinda like a netbook??

  • @driftster99 yup 500 bucks

  • @jackelvanyiadudester whaaa? damn. well thanks for the info dude

  • ahaha hey! I had an a7ht! I sold it though... haha the new gen 8 archos tablets are sick though

  • how is the ipad a netbook competitor it does half of what a netbook does and twice the price???

  • Yeah because i'll be stuffing this in my pocket just so it falls out.

  • Its cheap 200$ because its smaller and stuff.

  • It looks AWESOME! but can someone plz tell me if u have a lab top, nd a phone...what use wud anyone have for this?

  • This made me lol so hard when i first saw it. first thought that came to my mind: ipad RIPOFF. But im not sure if it can be considered a ripoff if it's actually better...

  • Well, I don't know if you can really call it a phone. You have to have a plan, but he says the only thing you're paying for is a "data plan" and that's just internet. That's so you can have internet wherever you go. You can't make any phone calls, but unlike the ipad you can make video calls. I like it!

  • Are there any apps?

  • Thats a big phone!

  • If it is also half of the price of the iPad, i'll buy it

  • THIS WOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN MADE IF THE IPAD WAS NEVER INVENTED. EVERYONES AN APPLE WANNABE

  • @more2yalife and you point is? I rather someone else come out with a product and see how its marketed. Then listen to what consumers want and give it to them for less. The carrier plans are needed because it something you will take everywhere do to size. Your obviously confused. You rremark suggest i go to Walmart and see another brand of a regular 50w light bulb and say GE wannabe.

  • @more2yalife nah it woulda, just the same as the phone but bigger, its all how you look at it haha

  • Don't fuck with the iPad, Leave it alone it didnt deserve these shabby compeditors.

  • @Rarrin9378 ipad rip off my ass its way better than an ipad its smaller has front and back camera with flash

  • @schoolboy171 An iPad is a better deal for the extra 200 bucks with this you have to pay sprint or a wireless carrier for service with the iPad you can connect right to a wifi spot for free if it has no password on it. Samsung is a rip-off.

  • @Rarrin9378 Or you could do your research and learn that there is a $499 wifi only version

  • @jackelvanyiadudester Then why bother buying this ghetto smaller version of an iPad then if it costs the same?

  • Fuck Sprint, i want this so Bad. >:I

  • Lol how are you gonna put that in your pocket, cmon now!

  • does that have wifi? i feel like if i buy this galaxy tab, will i have to pay for the contract or something to pay?

  • @cacho11zaku 500 dollar wifi only model at bestbuy

  • how would you explain that when your holding it to your head

  • @mackdaddypimp32 good shit,just what i was thinking lmao

  • @akeemak22 haha funny shit man, i still want one tho, a GIANT fone, lol

    it goes like this, ring ring, (awnsers) hello, (bystander) what the fuck is that, hahahaha, that would be hard to explain haha

  • this is way better than an ipad

  • hey does any one know if this device would let us download stuff from plain internet using browser or email attachments to the hdisk or the memory card sitting inside directly ? plz let me know.......

  • @CNETTV Does the Tab have a full web browser or does it use WAP like all the other.

  • @darkside59 Full web browser.

  • ooooooh look samsung galaxy tab trying to be ipad? give me a break................ipad will have video call camera and another to take pictures......................­ stupid competitions if jobs had never invented the ipad this samsung device never existed

  • @kenston999 Tablets were made well before the iPad, they were just simply marketed towards enterprise users and not to the average consumer. I don't see how this product is trying to be like the iPad - different form factor, different OS, different features and more carrier options (granted Verizon is now selling Wi-Fi iPad units bundles with a MiFi for mobile connectivity). I personally have an iPad and love it, but also have an Android phone and love that as well, they both have pros and cons.

  • Comment removed

  • I want that SGT...

  • This would be perfect for high school, easy jotting notes, perfect size for my pocket, and quick enough to not lag. why oh why dont high schools offer technology.

  • FYI...

    I have the IPAD now but only the 1st 2weeks I was so excited but I had the chance to see & use the GALAXY TAB & its a very solid Tablet ( advance hardware than ipad, then the quality is SO GREAT, you can root & do everything in it soon by help of XDA & lots of android guys)

    3 things ONLY IPAD has on it ( Much bigger screen but not as portable as the tab, it has more applications then IT HAS APPLE LOGO)

    GALAXY TAB has so many better feature & much portable & much solid built.

    GALAXY RULE!

  • I tried a demo model at work today and have to say it far exceeded my expectations. On paper it sounded average, but in real life I was very impressed. 7" is actually a perfect size and I think apple missed a trick there. Now if only it ran HTC sense rather than touchwiz hmmm...

  • iPad FTW

  • Vodaphone (Spain) is offering full Galaxy Phone Tab for 199 Euros on a 18mo contract of 39 Euros a month for 10gigs! What's up Sprint? ....ok so they are including a 16gig MicroSD along with the 16gig on-board for a total of 32gigs, but that's still not near as good as Europe and Asia that is also getting Galaxy Tab at lower prices. So Sprint and other US Carriers are ripping off customers! ......still better than iFad though, which Sprint won't be getting!!! :D

  • I'm getting this one, screw ipad

  • show off...

  • Lame Review misses some major Bonuses of Galaxy Tab. Such as twice the ram= 512mb, 4x Wifi speed w/ Dual Band 2.4/5.0 w/ DLNA to HDTV, PC, PS3, Xbox 360, etc DIRECT (device 2 device no router needed), Bluetooth3.0 10x faster/farther vs iFad's BT2.1, Hummingbird SoC w/ SGX540 GPU 3x Faster/Better Screen Rendering, expandable memory, replaceable battery, Face/Smile Detection Cameras, etc! Then Lies about FLASH! Runs Awesome on Tab! Go Get another Job! U iCrAppleholic Loser! ^__^ Tab Wins!

  • this is better than ipad...because this contain flash player , which mean it can play video and games that what Ipad cant

  • @jackasshole3 it also has a front camera and rear camera including gps...WOOT WOOT

  • @Publicask, just like the IPad is a big IPod Touch/Iphone?

  • I look at this to replace my smartphone. It will fit in many pockets or a purse. It's compatible with office, has front and rear camera which allows video conference, hotspot, ear plug jack since I hate blue tooth, and memory slot. Perfect for me! ;)

  • @rorygirl can you make a sex tape with the front camera lens and upload it on youtube for all of us to see plz?

  • @rorygirl too bad u cant make phone calls otherwise id be awesome!

  • @rorygirl which pocket are you fitting it in? I don't mean to seem rude but my jeans pockets are not big enough for it. Im just curious.

  • @MrMigueldinho Most of my sweaters have pockets large enough for it to fit in. It won't fit in my jean pockets either. ;) I had planned on purchasing it until I realized the US version won't make phone calls. For me, it's too small to bother with as only a pad.

  • scam school on the tab

  • I want this so bad. Been waiting for MONTHS. Best tablet size possible.

  • @bembry3000 Well, I saw a lot of comments saying, what is the purpose of an iPad. It's going to be impossible to use. Then, it finally came out and people cant live without them. Well I can't live without mine. As for the Galaxy tab with a phone, well, that would complete a lot of areas in which the iPad can't cant do.

  • It sure is better than #iPad :)

  • @Mohamedhp I never understood the point in putting a number #sign behind a word......

  • @Spense9 lights it up..looks better that way although the term can be searchable :D

  • Free energy has been here all along ,But a few ppl make too many billions from our energy needs to let this technology be known,Go to LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM and get the blueprints for a genuine magnet motor ,Be the revolution!

  • I understand a front facing camera...but who really would use this to take pictures with the back one...especially with 3 mp don't the Galaxy S phones have 5mp?

  • At the end of the video, I seriously thought he said, "I'm Donald Duck" ROFL

  • @outasflyguy lol, yea it sounded like he did say Donald Duck.

  • wait did he say computer

  • somebody please message me because im bored

  • Awesome name CNET!

  • TItle Fail

  • Title Fail...

  • It needs to be little bit bigger to smash I pad :)

  • review fail

  • like the title:)

  • every product that Any company makes is always compared with an Apple product, e.g. phones Vs iPhone, tablets Vs iPad, etc. What does that tell you ??!!

    I'll tell you what, stop wasting money on other product, they all suck, at least that's from My point of view. Everyone has his own opinion and I respect all.

  • @maaimm It tells me that Apple products are fucking popular and good, That is why I own many of their products

  • It Sucks

  • nice tiitle

  • title FAIL

  • @Waendchen Why does the title fail?

  • If you put that thing in your pocket, you will sit on it and you will break it. I would still buy an Ipad over samsung any day. the question is , do you want to spend that much money on a gadget/toy or a tool that you can use for business and play.

  • sprint SUCKS

  • lol the iPod touch can be a smartphone alternative eh? The iPad is in no way a netbook alternative, but I do use mine mostly for web browsing and such.

  • Ok so the iPad which doesn't have a front cam, or flash-support... is a "netbook" alternative... simply because of its size? Really? What kind of 1999 netbook are we talking about here?

  • nice ass

  • awesome title! :D

  • OK you really need to work on getting better titles for your videos.

  • name fail

    

  • I really want a big screen space so for that reason I'm getting an iPad. And I don't like the sound of that monthly fee....

    Great product though samsung well done!!! :)

  • This is not a Tablet, it's a BIG mobile phone!

  • @PublicAsk tablets ARE big smartphones, this one is just smaller

  • @PublicAsk ...I was going to replace my pda with it, but, was told you can't use it for a phone in the US when I called Verizon today.  Can only use web based apps for communication... but, forget regular phone use. I'm quite bummed to find this out and hope they change their minds if enough complain.

  • @rorygirl Sadly, it turns out the US version can't be used as a phone!

    

  • @PublicAsk Just like the iPad is a BIG iPod touch.

  • @feffrey81 But the os is adjusted for the platform on the iPad, here it's just a upscaled version of Android. And Google didn't even want Android on tablets... They wanted it to be an mobile only os. But i don't really want to argue on this, it's a good product for much people, just not for me

  • iPad is better!!!

    Thumbs up if you agree!!

  • cool numbers =]

  • WTF what happend to the title ??

  • Just give me the MS Courier already. Come on!!

  • sigh its just my huge galaxy S...

  • @N0VAJ and the ipad is a big ipod touch... blame apple for all these stupid tablets

  • @dannyto12 Im pretty sure he was just being satirical :P But if you have actually used an iPad, you'll know that they really aren't a giant ipod touch and they really are magical

  • Question???? how is the Ipad a netbook replacement???

  • @telj1 Answer, It never was XD

  • @Rayz093 that's what i thought BUT this guy made that statement....

    

  • @telj1 It goes on the web and only does half the things a real computer can :P

  • Good review but stupid title

  • i like the product but 400 on contract? wow...

  • @andrewjohnson7 Whats so weird about that.

    Its $600 off contract like most smartphones and $400 with a data plan, thats $30 to $50 a month.

    The only reason a smartphone phone is $200 is because you have to get a data plan and a voice plan which is typically $60 to $100 a month.

    What's so hard to grasp.

  • @daveloft well lets think about it for a moment... almost 3 inches smaller then the i pad, less apps, a contract that i have to pay every month for 2 years (thats 300 more bucks to sprint) and how often am i really going to use this thing when im NOT at home and able to use wifi? i love the device!! its awsome and has a few features that the ipad dose not, but for 100 bucks more i get a bigger screen and no contract with ten times the apps. whats the draw here other then android?

  • Oh damn I thought that was the Droid X...it's pretty much the same size :P

  • @HelluvaHorizon are you serious the droid X is 4.1 inches not 7

  • @Zaviex It's called sarcasm hahaha

  • derp titile

  • thumbs up if u opened the video because of the weird title

  • Video 34194814 1720 is adequately informative.

  • thumbs up for 34194814 1720

  • God just say something is better than the iPad already. It's got the cameras and flash support. That makes it better, period.
