A full video demonstration of video capabilities is embedded further down in this article. Thanks to Techdepot for supporting us with the Galaxy Tab I admit was a little suspicious of the claims that the Galaxy Tab could play back ‘Full HD’ content but it’s now confirmed. I’ve managed to play back two 1080p H.264 format files. To be honest, 720p is the perfect fit for a device like this, especially as it has no digital video outputs (unconfirmed but ‘settings’ offers only PAL and NTSC as ‘TV-OUT’ options for […]

Here’s a short and sweet unboxing of the Samsung Galaxy S phone for Verizon, the Fascinate. This phone has a 1Ghz Samsung Hummingbird CPU, 512MB of RAM, a 4” 800×480 AMOLED screen and is running Android 2.1. Stay tuned for a full review and plenty of other coverage on this so far impressive phone.

Short and sweet: Angry Birds works and Angry Birds is goooooood on the Samsung Galaxy Tab.

1000 words written on 4 rigs that cost less than 1000 Euro and weigh less than 1000gm. As you can see, I haven’t quite started yet but I’m in the final stages and expect to start this afternoon. The Toshiba AC100 is ready to go (indicative of the all-in-one nature of laptops perhaps?) but I’m still working on a few other devices. The main problem is that I don’t have a Bluetooth keyboard to use with the Galaxy Tab so I’m seriously thinking of going with the thumbs. I tested […]

We (that’s JKK and I) spent a full 3 hours testing the Samsung Galaxy Tab this evening. An amazing 1700 people stepped in to join us in the live session via Ustream and we had a constant 100+ people in the live chat asking questions.  As usual they were guiding us well  – there’s always someone out there with better knowledge and that’s one of the reasons we love to do these live review sessions. We learn from other experts and we can pass that information on.  We recorded two […]

Thanks to Tegatech we now have the 10 inch capacitive touchscreen Tega V2 in our hands. I’ve just uploaded the unboxing video and as I write this, am preparing for the live session this evening at Carrypad.com/live. It starts at 2100 CEST just over an hour from this posting time but we will record parts of the session. Also in the live session Samsung Galaxy Tab. Update: Live session videos are available here. (We have since fixed the calibration issue.) I will be writing more about the device next week […]

Update: Our live review sessions are now available. As the battery falls to under 20% after the first 24hrs of using the Galaxy Tab it’s time to give you some first impressions of the the final, retail version of the product. Has Samsung bisected the 5-9” tablet segment with another ‘must have’ product or is this just a product for rich-kids? Before I write any detail though, I must say one thing – When a product is good it triggers strange thoughts in the mind. “How can I justify this” […]
