Samsung Galaxy Tab promo video hits the web

General

If you’re dying to get your hands on the sexy, 7-inch slab that is due out from Samsung “this fall,” listen up. A two minute promo video, showing you just how you can use your newly acquired Tab, has hit the web. The video doesn’t reveal anything new, but it does provide a couple laughs; twice Samsung shows the Tab being jammed into the rear pocket of a pair of jeans. The video is awaiting your scrutiny after the break.

    maybe you all can help me understand this better. If this device can call and do everything a phone can do, what’s the point? Is it just to have a larger screen? Tablets seem like netbooks, plus a marketplace, plus voice calling (on some). Isn’t that the same thing as an Android phone? I love the look but I’m just not understanding the tablet craze.

    If I can find a need for it, I would love to get one. Just can’t see it yet…

      Just because you don’t see the need for it doesn’t mean everyones on the same boat. I rather work on more complex tasks on a bigger screen in the office or in school than a 4.3inch phone.

    I dont think this thing will be near $1000 in the states. They can face rape euro trash all they want and they know that (dont they pay a grand for iphones?)
    Maybe they will overcharge euros and give them to us for $200.

      Goodman? You’re back!

        @Walterrrrr, Norm, Norm from VZW Droid Division, etc:

        I new you suffered from MPD (don’t confuse it with PMS, that’s probably one of your other personalities); just how many do you have? I might be able to help you, have you ever tried hypnosis or shock therapy?

      • WalterSobchak

        I was Norm 3 or 4 months ago, but was forced to stop using it because appholes kept stealing it and saying nice things about apple.
        I didn’t know you had been here that long.
        Anyways I think its Glansburg bringing back Norm now. You notice the low # of Glansburg posts nowadays.

      Wow, “euro trash”, really? That was completely out of line.

      • WalterSobchak

        I didn’t think that was an offensive term, like hipster.

      • Jarrett

        Maybe it’s just me but I don’t think hipster and “euro trash” are one in the same. Again though, maybe it is just me.

    @ minute 1:39, she puts down the tablet yet the videochat image of her own face (in the little box on the bottom right) stay the same – lol.

  • Alvin

    People, just wait for the price. I’m sure there will be more tablets in the near future.

  • JVo

    Has anyone figured out the title of the song/music used in the video?

  • Neo

    iPad wanna be.

  • Mgl323

    It’s just an oversized galaxy s phone.

    • Sean

      I don’t know about you, but I rather have an oversized Galaxy S phone (great phone btw) than an oversized iPod touch. Way more functionality.

      • Alvin B.

        I happen to like my Galaxy S phone.

  • Gregory B.

    Does anyone at Samsung check the spelling in videos? On the last video screen, the word available is not spelled correctly.
    Makes me wonder about Samsung’s quality control.

    I saw a recent announcement for an 7″ iPad from Apple for the Spring of 2011. Perhaps Samsung is on to something.

  • namelesstwo

    mmmm…a cool device indeed. The iPad openned a can of worms, and everyone else is gonna follow. Meaning, every tablet being released with computer-like features, is another nail in the coffin for desktops, laptops and notebooks. IMHO, that’s gonna be the computer of the not too distant future.

    • googlefan

      are you serious? Apple copied Amazon’s Kindle.

      • rickd

        Apple had the guts to introduce the ipad, even though its old technology.

  • VZWEmp

    It’s just a droidX only bigger…

  • Sean

    Nice spelling at the end of the ad, “Avaliable at:”
