New Gadget 2011

Most experts agree that Apple�s iPad will have a tough competitor now that the Galaxy Tab is about to hit the market. But with its tag, experts are quite frustrated with the Galaxy Tab since the iPad 16GB is just $500 and the 64GB is $700. Take note that the 16GB iPad already comes with a MiFi bundle which would give you a total of $630.

Just recently, Verizon released their data plans namely the 1GB for $20 monthly, 3GB for $35, 5GB for $50, and the 10GB for $50 only. These plans can be used for the Galaxy Tab as well.

While Apple�s iPad has a 9.7-inch screen, the Galaxy Tab on the other hand only has 7 inches. Both the Tab and the iPad have 1GHz processors. However, iPad only sports a low memory of 256MB compared to Galaxy Tab�s 512MB.

You can use either of the two cameras in the Galaxy Tab. One is at the rear while the other is at the front which can be used for video calling feature. Although the current version of iPad does not have this kind of feature, many expect that the future iPads will have its own camera as well.

If you are a fan of Google�s Android, then you would love the Galaxy Tab since it runs on Froyo a.k.a Android 2.2. However, if you don�t mind getting the iOS instead, try to have a bite of Apple�s iPad which has a battery life of 3 hours or more according to the company.

Another thing we wanted to add (thanks to guest comment: ANDY) is that the Galaxy Tab is also a phone so that feature alone makes the Tab a better option. With the iPod you cannot make any calls so you would also need an iPhone but with the Tab, you can make phone calls directly from your device. Pretty cool feature for a tablet and does set the Galaxy Tab apart and makes it even more unique. So take this feature into consideration when you are deciding on which one to get per your needs.

thank you
