Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 review

 

Samsung's Galaxy Tab 8.9 is a little smaller, a little lighter and a little cheaper than the 10.1, but it's also a little bit better.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 preview: First look

 

By losing an inch of screen diagonal and reducing the weight to something you might actually be able to hold longer than 5 minutes, the Galaxy Tab 8.9 hopes to convert more people to the tablet cause. Those who found the 7” Galaxy Tab too limiting and...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 review: Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9

 

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9

The ; packs the full Android Honeycomb tablet experience ( ; ), along with Samsung's useful customizations, into a compact body.

The lack of ports on the tablet will be a problem for some and the plastic back leaves the Tab 8.9 feeling less solid than the iPad 2.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 is everything we loved about the Tab 10.1 in a slightly smaller form, with a slightly smaller price.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 (Wi-Fi)

 

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 is better than its larger sibling, delivering the same Android tablet performance in a more compact package with a lower price.

Very thin. Well-built. Good battery life. Solid performance.

Android tablets are still short on tablet-specific apps. No HDMI out. No schedule for Android 3.2 upgrade.

Conclusions The Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 is really just a tweak of the existing 10.1-inch Tab, but that tweak makes it a bit more appealing. It's a little more portable and a little less expensive, without losing a pixel of screen resolution, a hertz of...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 review

 

Just like computers and mobile phones, tablets are not a one-size-fits-all technology. Sure, Apple is selling plenty of iPads , but many people are looking for something a little more compact.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 packs the full Android Honeycomb tablet experience ( soon upgradeable to Android 4.0 ), along with Samsung's useful customizations, into a compact body.

The lack of ports on the tablet will be a problem for some and the plastic back leaves the Tab 8.9 feeling less solid than the iPad 2.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 is everything we loved about the Tab 10.1 in a slightly smaller form, with a slightly smaller price.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 is better than its larger sibling, delivering the same Android tablet performance in a more compact package with a lower price. But it still suffers from the app deficit that plagues Android tablets.
