Feel, weight and size are top. I had the opportunity in the meantime, the 7 "test version of a colleague and had to find that the smaller version for surfing neither is good, like a smartphone. The 10" model offers here a really good size and it's fun, with to surf the device. The battery is simply incredible and no comparison to the smartphone.
Thanks to the 2 speakers listening to music without headphones is surprisingly good. The sound is much better than the iPad and the MP3 player can be more than excellent and with regard to appearance and operating concept.
The integrated Video Player provides the ability to stream video via AllShare on the TV. This works well, but the developers have not fully reflected here, because with this player has no option to select a video file. In other words, you have to look until you have reached in the video that you want to see on the forward or reverse button. Who has more than 10 videos on your device, here is so quick to test the limits of his patience. Of course, there is more than Google Play, another player, then without AllShare.
Regarding the video formats the Tab is not picky. I had been to convert anything.
Schön is the fact that Flash content can be played back. A real plus point compared to Apple.
About AllShare it is also possible to stream the live TV to the tablet. It works flawlessly, but only for the program, that just at the same time running on the TV. So television is right only a DVBT stick!
My hope of controlling the TV via tablet browser unfortunately I had buried. Here is also nothing to be done by means of Samsung Apps - in this question, the tab is simply useless (just like the two remote controls the TV also).
Advantageously, the SD slot. I must admit that it is much easier for me to connect the entire device to the PC, as constantly to fumble the card from the slot and then insert Micro this via an adapter into the PC, however.
Not so great is the accuracy and response time of the display. Here I am obviously very spoiled by Apple. I'm writing this on the train and just recession would probably home probably switched a long time on the Pc in the face of the letters delay. As a laptop replacement it is only suitable for die-hards, especially as the printer connection does not exist (not even by Printdroiden).
And then there's the assessment with the Wifi. As mentioned above, I was of the opinion that sufficient Wifi. But just today I sit as a staunch motorists on the train and have no Internet access. Like the smart phone, a tablet only play its full benefits when it is online. So here's my advice to all those who still weigh. Wifi is really just for couch potatoes and not enough in my opinion.
We come to the eBook / ePaper. Reading PDF files is super. Anders sees the thing with the books from! As a library user, I've gotten used to since my iPhone to the E-Loan and use it actually constantly. With the Samsung Tab is verhagelt me but regularly the good mood. The loading of a book is still acceptable, but is turning to lottery. Here then is believed to play the poor accuracy of the display with the sloppy programming the reading software together. The latter is a shortcoming that I noticed when so few Android apps to the tablet can not really be blamed, yet serious, the use comfort of this unit.
Games I have not even been tested, however, from the fact that my children constantly are traveling with the device, conclude that there probably is no need to worry.
Conclusion:
Those looking to surf a device that is well served by the Samsung P 5110 for that price. Due to the SD slots rich 16GB completely, 3G is however strongly recommended. Users with higher demands coming presently in my opinion not the iPad over. The often heard this accusation of forced registration with iTunes, I personally colored for very one-sided in the face of forced registration with Google and Samsung for this Android Tab.
