Yesterday I got a chance for some quality hands on time with the Samsung galaxy Tab vs iPad vs. Dell Streak (with 1.6) vs. EVO at BestBuy, winner as judged by me: king EVO
I was with a couple others who had smartphones 3.5" or smaller who were fans of the Samsung Tab however.
My perspective is most people are best served with basic versatile computing essentials first, solid notebook & smartphone then assess needs from there.
My personal smartphone sweetspot is 4-5" with kickstand. I even preferred using the EVO to the Tab.
If I were to get a tablet it should have more capabilities than the smartphone & distinct use cases from the notebook, so 10" would be more appealing to me.
At 10"+ it would be competing with netbooks & ultraportables so ideally I'd like to see a dual core HD hybrid tablet capable of running Android & when docked an option for full OS would be cool similar to an updated
Lenovo's IdeaPad+U1 or a maybe even a detachable dual screen laptop/tablet but these
tablet specs paired with a keyboard case & remote login to fuller os' could work.
I won't hold my breath for hybrid tablets & projector smartphones or a 2010
Incredible HD rumor that does not appear to be materializing so I look forward to picking up the EVO at latest Black Friday/Cyber Monday.
"4G" is also permeating here (was shown peak speeds over 10 but avg still ~1/5 that with upload 1cap) so despite its camcorder that will look even weaker 3 months from now, I can't find a compelling enough reason not to finally push the gifted 3GS aside & pull that trigger on King kickstand EVO..(hope the battery tricks holdup
)
Any Tab + EVO owners care to share their views?
