Where are Samsung’s high resolution cheap tablets-Priceangels.com

Most people would agree that behind battery life and performance, the display is the most important component in a mobile device. Even more so in a tablet, where the display is especially crucial. A screen resolution which looks great on a 4.5-inch smartphone won’t pull off the same effect on a 10-inch tablet. The main reason for that is something called pixels per-inch (PPI).


The iPad 3’s Retina Display set a bar for other cheap tablets to reach with a pixel density of 264 PPI, but then the Nexus 10 surpassed it with its 300 PPI display. On Thursday, the new Nexus 7 beat them all into a submission with its 323 PPI screen, so we are left a little perplexed by the lack of a high-resolution tablet from Samsung, the biggest Android OEM.

It’s possible that Samsung simply believes that the Android tablet market just isn’t worth investing too much into and that the only way to beat the iPad is to undercut it and join in on the “race to the bottom”. Now that means that the costly high-resolution display is usually the first one to go.

Samsung is rumored to be working on a 12-inch Android tablet with a resolution of 2560 x 1600, but it won’t break any records with its slightly larger display size. The fact that Samsung’s high-end smartphones pack higher display resolutions (Full HD 1920 x 1080) into significantly smaller form factors doesn’t bode well for Samsung.

Samsung’s competitors aren’t standing still in the tablet domain either. Sony already has a Full-HD display on its Xperia Tablet Z, and Asus is packing a 2560 x 1600 display on its 10-inch Transformer Pad Infinity. Samsung needs to improve its tablet offerings ASAP if it wants to continue growing its tablet market share, because its current offerings are mediocre at best.sfk4FSs

What do you think of Samsung’s current tablets for sale offerings? Does Samsung need to offer a high-resolution tablet?Yes, absolutely, they need to improve the res on their tablets. It's not like most of their tablets are priced that cheaply either, so the low resolution certainly could be a determining factor for a lot of people, who will just get an iPad instead when they hear the Galaxy Tab or Note has much less pixels.

Even the Toshiba Excite Pro has a much better screen resolution. Samsung could at least put a 1920 x 1200 screen on their tablets. And as you say it's not like their tablets are cheaper than others.With that resolution, and an Exynos 5 Octa processor, it would have the power and resolution to run just about any two apps side by side, if not more. I like to see side-by side plus the overlay on LG phones. That would make this tablet the best business tablet
