Samsung Ativ Tab 3

                            Samsung Ativ Tab 3





The new Samsung Ativ Tab 3 was showcased in London and here is it's review.





The product specifications -

Screen - 10.1 inch

Resolution - 1366 x 768

Processor - Intel Atom

Storage - 64GB

RAM - 2GB

Thickness - 8.2mm

Weight - 550g

Operating system - Windows 8 (full and not RT)

Design

On taking a first look at this tab , you would find out that it looks like all other Samsung gadgets , especially Galaxy Tab.

The casing is plastic and feels cheap , but it's not too bad.
This tab also comes with a "stylus" that makes the tab all the more usable.



This tablet comes with a keyboard cover and a modifiable magnetic case.


It's also extremely thin, 8.2mm, which is also thinner than Apple Ipad.
It's weight is extremely good and is therefore very usable.

The Ativ Tab 3 has speaker grills on the left and the right side. On the left side, 3.5 mmm headphone jack is present, and on the right, a mircoUSB slot and a HDMI slot are present.



A sim slot is also present on this tab which will allow 4g/3g use.

Features

Ativ tab 3 comes with Atom processor and 2 gigs of rams which is not much, but it is enough for normal use. The apps run smooth enough.
It obviously wont be as fast as Nexus, S4 etc.

The screen resolution is pretty less and appears grainy. The viewing angles are good though .
The tab has a front and a rear camera with HD recording facility.








The operating system is windows 8 which comes pre-installed with Microsoft Office.
Importantly, its not the RT version of windows , but the full version of it.

Verdict

The samsung Ativ Tab 3 is a really cool gadget that is portable and also comes with a keyboard and a magnetic case.

But the screen resolution is nothing special, and the processor isn't really fast and it's certainly not meant for hardcore gadget fans but for general use.
The price is not confirmed , but maybe priced at $699 (~Rs 40,000)
which would surely come down in the coming months.
