The upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab has been exposed further thanks to iFanr. They have gotten leaked photos of the device with usability shots as well. They also shared some specification details although we’re not sure how accurate they are.
The Galaxy Tab’s 7″ screen is reported to be 1024×600 which gives it more display real estate compared to the slighly smaller 5″ Dell Streak that’s coming to Malaysia.
The chassis is said to be plasticky which could feel cheap in the hands compared to the iPad but that also translate to lighter weight as well. Also mentioned is the availability of a 3.2 Megapixel camera together with 3G and WiFi 802.11 b/g/n connectivity. It also comes with GPS and a low resolution front screen webcam for conference calls.
From the screenshots shown, the Galaxy Tab is shown running on Android 2.2 Froyo, which is a big plus. Another interesting discovery is that the on-screen keyboard looks similar to the one found on iPhones. Samsung trying hard to be as close as an iPad? Even the connectivity cable looks like an iPod/iPhone cable instead of the usual micro USB used by Android devices.
We believe that the Galaxy Tab should be launching soon considering it is being spotted on a field test in Australia. If it is available in Malaysia, which one do you prefer? The 5″ Dell Streak or a 7″ Samsung Galaxy Tab? Leave us a comment.
More photos after the jump.
