samsung tablet


Hi.

Looking at Samsung Tablets.


http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/mobile-devices/tablets/tablets


Im looking at the ones on the above link (assuming thats thewhole range). But not sure of the differences.


I have a few questions :


1-Is the number part (e.g. galaxy tab 7.0) the size ofscreen?

2- Can you multi task-e.g. Watch YouTube and go online? Onthe iPhone, you have an app for YouTube so you can’t go online. With android isYouTube used as a website rather than an app?

3- Out of the ones on the above page/ or personalexperiences-which is the best to get?

4- If I buy a Wi-Fi only one, I have seen these things: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Huawei-E586-21-6-Mbps-Mobile/dp/B005LDRP18/ref=cm_cr_dp_asin_lnk

Are they worth it? Is it better to buy a 3g (can it usewifi?)

5- Any ideas on keyboards to use?



Sorry this is so long. I have looked on reviews but can’tseem to get these last few things answered.

    >>>>YES roughly seven inches .


    2- Can you multi task-e.g. Watch YouTube and go online? Onthe iPhone, you have an app for YouTube so you can’t go online. With android isYouTube used as a website rather than an app?


    >>>>Depends upon specs but basically yes .Note better than Tab in that respect as its more powerful .

    3- Out of the ones on the above page/ or personalexperiences-which is the best to get?

    >>>>Note 10.1 but it depends on your budget and current price .

    4- If I buy a Wi-Fi only one, I have seen these things: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Huawei-E586-21-6-Mbps-Mobile/dp/B005LDRP18/ref=cm_cr_dp_asin_lnk

    >>>>>>Tab and Note both use Wifi 3G makes the tablet more versatile but you may need a tablet tariff ..

    5- Any ideas on keyboards to use?

    >>>I find the on-board keyboard fine .


    Mine is Note 10.1 purchased pre christmas at £268 Samsung cashback at current price i would look hard at Nexus 7 or 10 .

  • We have purchased a Windows RT Surface. As good as it is, we are unable to send or receive emails as they have changed the format. Does anyone recomend a good tablet not for gaming for business use mainly, that can do all the functions of a PC.

    Their must be a way to send emails doubt that changing a format would prevent such . Have you tried other email apps like Thunderbird etc .
