Samsung Galaxy Tab gets official teaser video
var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/gadgets/Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_gets_official_teaser_video'; Whoa, now we're talking. It's short, sweet, and dramatic, yet the official Samsung Galaxy Tab teaser video still manages to reveal a number of features previously only rumored. We've got Android 2.2 running on a 7-inch display, video calling, Swype, HD movie playback, "Flash support," GPS navigation, an e-reader, and plenty more. Now get ready to be teased mercilessly by the video embedded after the break -- it's as close as you'll get before the official reveal in Berlin (at IFA) on September 2nd. Yeah, we'll be there. Update: here's a few other things we've noticed from the trailer. In addition to the aforementioned details, the floating text also references augmented reality and video calling (perhaps indicating a front-facing camera as well). Speaking of cameras, you'll notice in one shot what appears to be a LED flash bulb next to the camera. Must we really wait another 9 or so days? %Gallery-100264%
Samsung Galaxy Tab P1000 gets wild with Android 2.2
Recognize those bits and bobs? By now you should. It's Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Tab and it's on the loose right now in China with ifanr to thank for this round of pics. Better yet, in addition to images that would seem to confirm Android 2.2 and a GT-P1000 model number, the site has also passed along the tipster's own impressions. First off, and this should be no surprise to anyone who's ever owned a Samsung product (eh hem, Galaxy S), the Galaxy Tab is very plasticky and much lighter than the iPad. Ifanr's tipster also confirms a 1,024 x 600 pixel resolution packed into that 7-inch display on a device that's much thicker than the Dell Streak. Other "confirmed" specs are a 3.2 megapixel camera, 3G network, and built-in "ebook" app that's supposedly one of the best the tipster's ever used on an Android device. Of course, while this aligns with specs we heard about earlier, this device looks to be very much a prototype (where's the silver ring around the bezel) so don't take this as the final word on the matter, ok? One more image after the break.
