May not need to invent the wheel? And just to work on the portability, convenience, ergonomics, energy efficiency and an additional set of pre-functional?

But apparently Samsung is not looking for simple ways. Not so long ago they were a model of what a smartphone, or tablet Note, the size of 5 inches, and before that, in the spring and also announced a device with a screen size 8.9 inches.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9

The first thing that everyone pays attention to the tablet – it is, of course, the screen. When dropped from 10 inches, the screen remains the standard resolution for a family of tablets with a third Android on board. That is, we have all the same 1200×800 pixels, but placed more densely. And if in the case of the ten-tablet we could complain about the vagueness of some pictures, here it looks more “loosing”, “compress”, and believe me, is more advantageous. The smaller size of the icons does not affect usability, but for those with large fingers, a new form factor can be inconvenient when typing on the onscreen keyboard. Virtual buttons still somewhat diminished. However, we have not raised specific problems and complaints.

The screen is technology PLS. Not to say the company is not a replacement for IPS, but the colors look very realistic. Picture a beautiful and clear. Viewing angles, especially vertical, slightly inferior to the matrices at IPS. But for picture clarity, here we are again, has a positive effect and slightly pursed screen size.

Another characteristic, which everyone pays attention, it is of course, performance. Say whether reducing the size? In principle, the tablet is based on the Nvidia Tegra chip 2, each of its core is clocked at 1 GHz. This is the de facto standard for modern flagship for Android, almost all leading manufacturers. The chip is also responsible for working with three-dimensional graphics and video playback in high definition. With the simple three-dimensional gaming tablet handles quite well, the 10 inch counterpart. With video up to 720p, inclusive, stuttering, pixelation (when the picture breaks up into large squares) and the freezing of pictures we have not seen even in dynamic scenes. However, for the interface of the operating axis, in principle, while navigating through the screens there are small delays in drawing the picture.

However, do not forget that in the tablet from Samsung Android hangs over samopisnaya shell Touch Wiz. Maybe she has a destructive effect on the overall performance of the interface. Again, that work on third-party applications are not affected.

Now we come, perhaps, for the most important. Dimensions. For such a large tablet screen size – mass strikes. Total 447 grams! This, however, a breakthrough! That is, in fact, the weight of three modern smartphones. This tablet is already possible to hold with one hand long enough time. Why? Well, for example, when reading or watching video. And most importantly, with photos and movies! Indeed, while its thickness is 8.6 mm leaves only! Given the size of 230.9 x 157.8 mm, this device will fit into a small briefcase or even a handbag.

In the horizontal location of the device at the bottom end of the connector is the main interface, combined with the power connector. Top – the power button and volume rocker. To the right of them – the SIM card slot. Between them – headset jack and barely discern the microphone hole. In general, housing is secure, with a reasonable compression and bending do not play and does not creak.

Over the sound of the camera corresponds to two speakers. They are located at the ends, which we believe advantages. However, they are on the bottom, the same place where the interface connector, and there may be a problem. For example, if you will be rested the lower bound of the tablet in the stomach or knees, or when placing the tablet in a broad base or docking station.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 looks little different from the “big brother”

Like the flagship planshetostroeniya, in our current ward is not possible to communicate with the outside world by means of built-in interfaces. All possibilities for the transfer of data – only through a network or separately purchased accessories. They are available in the Russian retail, alas, is not obvious. And it makes you wonder.
