Tablet PCs are certainly the latest trend in the market, and not without reason. For a very affordable price, one can have the luxury of a mobile phone as well as a touch-screen laptop, so to speak. Samsung, the world leader in consumer electronics, has been a product innovator of sorts in this domain in India, since it was the brand that came out with the first tablet PC in the country. Since then, it has continuously evolved on its own products, bettering the standards it set for itself, and raising the bar for the industry to follow suit.

The Galaxy Tab 680 is one such innovation that transcends the boundaries of imagination and personifies perfection. It is the first tablet that comes with the Super AMOLED Plus display technology by Samsung, meaning that the user can enjoy brilliant colours, along with the best contrast ratio, response time, colour range and sharpness. All these factors ensure that the viewing experience is one of its kind. Also, irrespective of the angle at which the user views the screen, the picture would be crisp and vivid, as the 7.7 inch screen offers the highest pixel density available. The design of the Galaxy Tab 680 is also pretty spectacular, as the sleek metal body measures just 7.89 mm in thickness, which means it’s thinner than a pencil. Coming to the weight, the tab weighs just 340 gms, which means that it can be easily carried around in a coat pocket.

The Galaxy Tab 680 is powered by a 1.4 GHz Dual Core processor, allowing for tremendous multitasking possibilities, with faster webpage loading, better and smoother UI transitions, and super fast powering up! The connectivity capabilities of the tab are also top notch, as it offers different options like HSPA+21 MBps and Wi-Fi channel bonding, which allows the user to receive data twice as fast as a regular Wi-Fi connection. It also features the Honeycomb platform that is a vast improvement over the previous Android versions and offers an exciting user experience. For instance, the compatibility zoom mode can optimise the applications that are not exactly capable of being run on large screen sizes, so that the user can still utilise the same without visual or functional hindrance. Further, one can load media files directly from the MicroSD card.

The Live Panel feature on the Galaxy Tab 680 offers a customisable home screen experience, which means that content like emails, image galleries, social network feeds and websites can be easily accessed; while the Mini Apps ensure that their upgraded version allows the user to choose and edit his/her own Mini Apps tray, selecting features like PenMemo, Calendar or email in a pop-up format over full screen applications. In the end, it’s safe to say that the Samsung Tab 680 is the personification of the dreams for gadget enthusiasts, who have certainly been waiting for this kind of a device that combines the best of everything and places it in their palms!
