Samsung ATIV Tab Review: Qualcomm's First Windows RT Tablet

 

Clover Trail was late by about a month to the Windows 8 launch. Most of the traditional PC partners were delayed either by Intel or by burdens of their own. As much as we wished Surface RT would've launched with a different SoC, truth be told I don't...

Samsung Ativ Tab preview: First look

 

It may look like Samsung is dipping a toe in unknown waters but its long-time partnership with Microsoft is a wet suit of sorts. The Ativ Tab may be the company's first Windows RT tablet but not its first Windows slate.

Another trick up Windows RT's sleeve is the Office 2013 Home & Student edition. It includes Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote.

Samsung ATIV Tab Review

 

As far as tablets go, we didn't really have that much of a variety until recently. One could either get an iPad from Apple, or go with an Android tablet that fits their budget and preferences. But now that Windows RT is here, things are seemingly bound...

Full-sized USB port ; Very light for a 10-inch tablet

Build quality is so-so ; Serious shortage of apps

We have to admit that we quite enjoyed spending some time with the Samsung ATIV Tab. Using a tablet that is neither an iPad nor an Android device feels refreshing in its own way, reminding us that there is always more than one way to skin a cat. Sure,...

Samsung's Windows RT tablet is expensive, but can it justify the price tag?

Great battery life ; Loads of storage ; Full featured office software ; Good for media

Clunky interface ; Limited app selection ; Expensive ; Disappointing screen

Samsung Ativ Tab review: Hands-on

 

The Samsung Ativ Tab comes equipped with a bevvy of exciting features, as well as the new Windows 8 operating system from Microsoft

The Samsung Ativ Tab is a well made tablet and a natural design evolution from the Galaxy Tab 10.1. As a Windows tablet, it’s up against the home grown Microsoft Surface and the Dell XPS Duo 12 PC hybrid.

Eager for more specific information about the battery that Samsung uses in the ATIV Tab, we took our sample apart and found the same 30.75 Wh power source used in the Smart PC 500T. That'll make our battery life testing a little more interesting, as we...

Samsung Ativ Tab review

 

We review the Samsung Ativ Tab, a thin, light dual-core slate offering ample storage and connections, but can it better Microsoft's surface?

Thin ; Light ; Capable camera ; Smooth performance

Expensive ; Plasticky ; Under developed OS ; Lack of value added Samsung additions

If it wasn’t so expensive, we would have found it easier to recommend a Samsung Ativ Tab. As it stands though, £549 could get you a Google Nexus 10 and a Google Nexus 7 with around £50 left over. Not bad for two altogether better tablets.
