What the title says. It seems to be very similar to the EEE, but it's lighter and does 3G. What's everyone's take? I'm having trouble deciding whether to get this or the Transformer.
They are similar. The galaxy tab is lighter smaller and thinner. It also may come with a different SoC then Tegra 2. I forget the name. Something similar to the Galaxy S2 and will probably be DiVX certified with better video playback support.
It does not have a dock, it does have a touchwiz skin.
Touchwiz kills it for me, that and $100 more and June release.

I have the Transformer and I'm lovin' it, but I'm waiting to see what Samsung comes up with. I'm intersted in both tabs that they are advertising: 10.1 and 8.9.
Actually the smaller one is even more intersting because I don't think the bigger one differs enough to deserve another look after the Transformer.

isn't 10.1V the heavy old one?
from what I saw on youtube, they're emphasizing that the tab 10.1 is a pure google experience with no touchwiz. It has tegra 2 as well.
I was set on waiting for the 10.1v since there were sites reporting it had a USB 2.0 slot (most likely mini). Come to find out it doesn't have one and also does not have an HDMI output (mini or otherwise). If it had both, I would have waited. I was hoping it would have the perfect hardware that all other tablets have some but not other (HDMI, USB, LED camera flash, microSD, etc).
I thought the 10.1v was essentially a limited-run (i.e. bastard child) product, since Samsung will be re-releasing a thinner version to compete against the iPad2.
Personally, I think the 8.9 version will be really sweet (only 1 lbs.), but the Transformer and its uber dock still gets my vote.
10.1v is the 10.1" version of the current Galaxy Tab. The non-V version is the real one you want which has Honeycomb on it. Samsung = too many models

the 10.1v is the model exclusive to Vodafone, with 3g. The 10.1 with no v is likely to be wifi only. It's supposed to be thinner and lighter than the ipad2.

The whole thing is kinda weird. According to the Wikipedia the 10.1V is 4g heavier than the 10.1. It is a lot thinner but 4g is nothing to a 600g device.
Hello,
At home we own two galaxy tab p1010 7"s. However the TouchWiz UX on the 8.9 and 10.1v look amazing, and I was wondering whether it was possible to have this on the 7" tab.
Greetz.
Anyone have an idea?
Maybe once spacemoose is done the HC port. Before that ... probably not.
Why are no developers developing the Cyanogen mod 9 Android 4.x.x for the galaxy tab 7.0 plus WIFI only version? Its a real nice device and it will be awesome to have CM9 for this device. I believe the galaxy tab 7 plus is being ignored for the galaxy tab 10.1.
its all to do with the sauce codes...Samsung have them under wraps and are not letting them go easy also their is an issue with correct drivers etc... im sure when the codes are revealed their will be 100s of developers trying this baby out (wifi/3g) but in my opinion i think Samsung have kept this from us deliberately as they are launching the new g-tab 2 this is basically a crappy version of out tab but with ICS not honeycomb and buy them allowing development on our device before launch would kill the thrill of the new galaxy tab 2... disappointing i know
I read a article this morning that said almost the exact same thing you just did. the Tab 2 seems like a lower end device than what the plus is. Slower processor (or just underclocked) with ICS. I am perfectly happy with the tab plus.

i sold my samsung galaxy tab
and i need a new tablet but i dont know which one of these three tablets is better
also i want to know how will they stack up against the samsung galaxy note 10.1
thanks
I have a simple question. Right now I am using a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 (Verizon). About a year back I was using the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 (the first, Verizon as well). I am pretty sure I had an old version of Android possible 2.x something. It had the old style Task bar. You remember the one on the top of the screen not the bottom.
Is there any way to get that old classics style back? Any apps to change the appearance of the taskbar. I am currently using AWLancher for the home app. Samsung Galaxy 7.7 android 3.2 Verizon.
7.7 has never had ginger bread or any variant of android 2.x, the original galaxy tab did. With that said if you are rooted and on ICS you could change your dpi settings to get phone ui.
