8 Inch Samsung Galaxy Tablet 3 Review

Online, November 18, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Samsung released 3 sizes of the Galaxy Tab 3, giving users plenty to choose from. This review focuses on the 8-inch tablet, but a majority of the specs apply to all 3 tablet sizes. The 8 inch measures 8.2 by 4.8 by 0.27 inches and weighs 0.7 pound. Compared to the competing tablets of its same size, the Tab 3 is as light or lighter and easier to hold one handed, even with small hands. Under the display are physical navigation buttons, giving apps and games more screen room. On the front is a 1.3 megapixel camera and on the back is a 5 megapixel camera. The screen is 1280x800 pixel resolution with 189 ppi. Fonts look clear and detail is crisp. Running the tablet is a 1.5GHz dual core Exynos 4 Dual CPU and 1.5GB of RAM. The Tab 3 is fast and apps run smooth, even with 2 apps running at the same time.The Tab 3 comes with Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean with the TouchWiz user interface. Samsung added the ability to run 2 apps simultaneously, and the user can resize the apps to fit the screen however they wish. Group Play is another feature Samsung added. All Samsung users can hook up to the same network, sharing documents, photos, music or play games and alter the documents in real time. However, they have to unconnect from the network in order to connect to the internet. All in all, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 8 has plenty to offer at an acceptable price.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 device travels well. And no matter where it goes, it travels in style with a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 Griffin Passport case.

Two sets of elastic bands at the corners hold large or extra-large devices in place. And a large pocket on the inside of the cover is handy for keeping important papers in order. Wherever this tablet goes, never travel without the Passport.
