Samsung Galaxy Tab pictures

Piggybacking on the success of their Galaxy S line of smartphones, Samsung has released the Galaxy Tab. The device will feature a 7-inch 1,024 by 600-pixel display, and like their Galaxy S phones, the Galaxy Tab will run on Android 2.2. The tablet is expected to compete with Apple’s iPad, and it offers some features the iPad currently lacks, such as Flash support, front and rear facing cameras, and microSD support for additional storage. The Galaxy Tab is powered by a 1 GHz Cortex processor along with 512 MB of RAM.  It also features 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, and 3G connectivity.

Samsung has not announced pricing or any potential carrier partners for the device in the U.S. or in other markets.

Check out the video below to see the tablet in action.

Could the Vision Pro replace your iPad? There’s just one problem
The front visor of the Vision Pro on display at an Apple Store.

In the time since it launched in early February, we’ve heard a lot about how Apple’s Vision Pro could replace some of the company’s other devices, especially the iPad. Now, prominent leaker Mark Gurman has joined the fray and lent weight to the idea of the headset becoming a tablet killer. But while that seems plausible, there’s one major problem with it.

Specifically, it’s the price. Because while Gurman’s Power On newsletter makes some good points about the Vision Pro’s strengths, it can’t get around the unavoidable obstacle that is the device’s $3,500 asking price. If the Vision Pro really is going to replace the iPad, a lot has to change first, especially given how wide of a range of prices the iPad line hits.

MacBooks could soon fall behind the iPad Pro in this important way

The dynamic balance between the Mac and the iPad may be about to shift again. Both the MacBook Air and iPad Pro will reportedly get updated this spring, boosting performance with the inclusion of the new M3 chip.

But a new report from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman indicates that a new "landscape Face ID camera" may be in the works for the iPad Pro, potentially taking away one of the main advantages that MacBooks have over iPads. With so much of work happening in video calls, the iPad Pro might become a far better laptop replacement in this new generation.

When the iPad is a better computer than my PC
Apple iPad Pro 11 with Apple Magic Keyboard.

Can the iPad work as a real computer? I'm well aware that I'm not first to raise this question. It is, however, the first time for me to ask the question of myself. After all, everyone's needs for a proper "computer" are different, and I've never given it a fair shake.

I'm running an iPad Pro 11-inch that uses an 8-core CPU/10-core GPU Apple M2, which is an insane amount of power to pack into a tablet. And I've recently added a Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil into the mix, making it look a lot like a regular laptop. It still has limitations, but with all that on doard, I found myself surprised at how good of a computer the iPad Pro can really be.
What's a real computer, anyway?
