I have a 10" transformer,but it's too big and can't play videos well, and I returned the tab 10.1 for the same reason. I've been tempted by the flyer, but the new galaxy tab sounds perfect from rumors, with the dual core Exynos processor, and hopefully good codec support. Is there any news, or is anyone else excited for this tablet?

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.

Bring out Galaxy Tab II already!
Meh. It doesn't stop me from ordering it online.
also, why would you want a galaxy tab 10.1 now? its tegra2, everybody's waiting for kal-el now.
apple was afraidd of the samsung galaxy tab 10.1 and 8.9 so he's doing a process in europe too but only in germany already

Everybody? If you're only interested in the processor, then by all means the Transformer2 is the way to go. I had a Qualcomm HTC Jetstream for nine days before I returned it and the UI was a bit faster but the Tab was equal in browsing and faster at video. If weight, form factor, build quality, support, audio and video codecs, display, and better drivers mean anything the G-Tab 10.1 is still a great choice. I have a Wi-Fi and am waiting for a 3G from the UK. For what a tablet's supposed to do the Teg is fine and Samsung's better optimized s/w helps its performance a lot.
Why post this in the Galaxy S II section? The more relevant thing to post would have been the changes Samsung has to make to TouchWiz in order for them to sell their devices in the Netherlands, as that directly affects the Galaxy S II(source: Samfirmware tweet). Galaxy Tab != Galaxy S II.

But of course you can get it in Germany too. Without problems. It is only not allowed for Samsung to import it
I don't think that this will matter so much to Sammy as they can make a variation of the tab 10.1 and it would be legal for retail sale in OZ. Plus Apple is scared of Samsung, i don't think that they will be able to stop every tablet that Sammy will produce in future. So this is pretty much a speed bump for Sammy

Maybe you're right. In any case, I've only tried out the Transformer1 and wasn't particularly impressed with its performance. Then again, might be possible that the SGS2 has spoilt me.
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
Hey guys,
I'm thinking of getting a 5110 (it looks good and good user base on XDA) and running the AOKP Rom on it. How does it compare to the Galaxy Nexus running the same Rom performance wise? Of course I mean when it's overclocked.
I don't expect miracles, I would just like to have something that runs smoothly enough.
i don't get it... one's a phone, the other one a 10" tablet
From my experience since I have both .. they may have similar specs. but both are from different categories.. Performance + Camera is better on Galaxy Nexus but 10" display is fun..
I am anticipating that Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" users will enjoy good roms and latest android builds because of its chip-set since its also used on former Google's flagship as-well but don't know what Samsung is planing ..
Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" is way better then other Tabs out there..
So I got the 5110 today. Installed aokp and really satisfied with the performance.

Most definitively the Note. Samsung's Note tablets are their premium class ones. The Tab tablets are the middle-to-low range ones (and really aren't great at all).
Here is a comparison table, if you want a breakdown on specs: http://www.phonearena.com/phones/co...msung-Galaxy-Tab-3-10.1-inch/phones/8139,7870
You'll notice that the Note 10.1 2014 Edition far outshines the latest Tab 3. It has a far better processor, has better battery life, a far better screen, a better camera, offers premium software not available in the Tab, and of course, has the fantastic S-pen that everyone raves about. It also has better long-term use, as Samsung updates its flagship models far more often than their non-flagship models.
If you want the best Android tablet (and arguably the best tablet in general), the Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition is hands-down the one for you.
If you're looking for a middle-to-low end device, I would not recommend a Galaxy Tab but rather something from another company.
If you don't care for S-pen features, and just want a tablet for entertainment, running stock android, then I'd recommend a Nexus - either the 7" or the upcoming 10" tablet.
