Today, at 01:00 AM our time, Samsung officially presented its latest product, specifically the most discussed device in the name of Samsung Galaxy Tab S. It happened at the event GALAXY Premiere 2014 in New York's Madison Square Garden arena, where just a few days ago the battles for the highest trophy of the NHL hockey competition, known as the Stanley Cup, were taking place. The tablet comes in two versions of different sizes, i.e. the 8.4″ and 10.5″ versions, but both differ from each other in only a few aspects, but the main one, i.e. the Super AMOLED display, can be found on both models.
Samsung Galaxy The Tab S is the first mass-produced tablet in the world with an AMOLED display, although one of these existed in the past, but it was intended exclusively for testing AMOLED technology on tablets. But what is so wonderful about the AMOLED displays mentioned so many times? Compared to perhaps the most used LCD, we can talk about a much better reproduction of colors and contrast, at the same time it is more pleasant to the touch and thanks to this it creates a great user experience, which, according to Samsung, is further strengthened by the use of a soft perforated back cover, which debuted in April / April on Samsung Galaxy S5.
Of course, the tablet does not only have a display, inside it we find an octa-core Exynos 5420 processor with big.LITTLE technology, with 4 Cortex-A15 cores clocked at 1.9 GHz, the remaining four Cortex-A7 cores then have a frequency of 1.3 GHz. The GPU used was unsurprisingly the ARM Mali-T628, and likewise the assumptions and leaks were confirmed in conjunction with 3 GB of RAM. However, there is also an LTE version of both tablets, which contains a Snapdragon 800 processor and an Adreno 330 GPU, but the individual versions do not differ in other specifications, so in both the LTE and non-LTE versions we can still find 16/32 GB of internal memory expandable via microSD. 8.0MPx rear camera capable of shooting in FullHD and 2.1MPx front camera.
The latest tablet from Samsung is packed with more sensors than its predecessors, including a fingerprint sensor that we could see for the first time on Samsung Galaxy S5. OF Galaxy S5 you are Galaxy Tab S has taken over some other functions, such as Ultra-Power Saving Mode, a mode for children or a private mode. Samsung however on GALAXY Premiere 2014 also introduced a completely new convenience called SideSync 3.0, with which the tablet can be paired with a smartphone and calls can be made on it, but during the call the user still has a free hand and can, for example, browse the Internet, watch videos or share content on social networks during the call. All these functions run on the system Android 4.4.2 KitKat supported by the latest Samsung Magazine UX.
That Samsung took care of its new pride is proven by the fact that the company decided to cooperate with more than thirty world leaders in the field of content and services for mobile devices, which created the ultimate tablet suitable not only for home use, but also for work and entertainment. After the purchase, the owner can expect several applications focused on reading, among which Kindle for Samsung, the new service from Samsung Papergardem magazine or three months of free unlimited access to the Marvel Unlimited application from the Marvel company must not be missing. And for avid readers, there is k Galaxy The Tab S comes with a special cover called "Book Cover", which not only protects the device, but also offers three different positions into which, thanks to its layout, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S build. And so that everything is not just for readers, you also get an ultra-thin Bluetooth keyboard with the tablet.
The hardware and software of the 8.4″ variant is powered by a battery with a capacity of 4900 mAh, the larger model then has a battery with a significantly larger capacity of 7900 mAh, and both versions will be available for purchase in two colors, i.e. titanium bronze and white. Samsung's recommended price Galaxy Tab S 8.4 without LTE is 399 Euro (approx. 10 CZK), Samsung Galaxy The Tab S 10.5 can be purchased without LTE for as little as 499 Euros (approx. 13 CZK) and all versions of this unique tablet should be available already this July/July.
