Samsung's highly anticipated and latest Tablet PC, The Samsung Galaxy Tab, has finally been released in the UK. It is available SIM FREE, with a 30 day rolling contract or on a monthly contract with the Vodafone and 3 networks.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab is truly an ultra portable PC. And it's certainly a step up from a smartphone with its large, 7 inch multi touch sensitive screen and powerful processor and graphics chip. The Galaxy Tab runs Google Android 2.2 Froyo. The obvious comparison is with Apple's iPad; first impressions are that it's smaller than the iPad, with dimensions of 190 x 120 x 12 mm, weighing in at 380g. The Galaxy Tab's screen resolution is 600 x 1024 pixels - giving you plenty of screen real estate to work with when emailing or using office applications. The Galaxy Tab features a scratch resistant screen known as 'Gorilla Glass', again, an important feature for a mobile device.

The Galaxy Tab has all the specifications you would expect from the highest end smartphone / tablet PC such as accelerometer, multi-touch input, gyro, proximity sensor, and swipe to input text. The Galaxy Tab is a well-connected phone, sporting 802.11 b/g/n, 3G and HSDPA, Bluetooth 3.0 and TV Out via composite, so you can watch those you tube clips on a larger screen. Beneath the bonnet the Samsung Galaxy Tab runs an ARM Cortex A8 1 GHz processor as well as PowerVR SGX540 graphics. This is a powerful combination and should really motor though video and applications with no problems.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab can be picked up from £499 SIM FREE, or from £99 with a £40 / month contract including 5GB data allowance.
