The Samsung Galaxy Tab is a 7-inch slate designed and built to compete with the current so far unchallenged market leader, the Apple iPad.

There have already been a few previous Android tablets on the market by companies such as Dell, but the Samsung Galaxy Tab is the first of it's kind which really qualifies as a serious contender.

Have a look at how the Galaxy Tab spec differs from the iPad and see for yourself the qualities inherent in the impressive Galaxy Tablet as it stands up to it's rival.

In addition however, the Galaxy Tab also supports up to 32 G bytes of expandable storage, where as Apple's device is limited to it's own internal storage space.

The Galaxy Tab has an impressive two cameras - one rear-facing 3.2 mega pixel camera and one front-facing 1.3 mega pixel camera for video chatting - whereas the current iPad models don't have any camera. Samsung claims up to 7hrs of video playback for it's Galaxy Tab. Apple says the iPad can last up to 10hrs.

Regarding the software, Galaxy Tab's Android 2.2 operating system gives this device a number of selling points which the Apple iPad just can't compete with, including of course support for Adobe Flash, it's fully-featured multitasking, and notably un-restricted access to applications (whereas Apple policies are famous for censoring all kinds of material - from politically varied satire to even the swimsuit clad ladies - and as you are probably aware Apple has also become infamous for banning apps which can provide functions such as free tethering and any customization of the operating system.
