The original Samsung Galaxy Tab was one of the best Android tablets on the market, but the new Galaxy Tab 10.1 looks even more likely to take the fight to Apple's iPad 2. As the name hints, it's a 10.1-inch tablet, and it features one of the best desig...
 Out of all the Android tablets we've seen, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 gets the closest to matching the design of the iPad 2. Although it's not original, it's no bad thing, as the iPad still has its rivals licked when it comes to quality and design. The Tab 10.1 is just as stylish, thinner and even lighter than the iPad 2. Samsung's Galaxy smartphones lead the way when it comes to colour reproduc...
 The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 may look better than most other tablets, but it comes at a price. Samsung hasn't found the space to add many ports–there's no expandable memory, for instance, and you'll have to make do with the 16GB of integrated storage. The Tab 10.1 also suffers from the same problems as all other current Android tablets–including the excellent Eee Pad Transformer–and that's t...
 Despite that, however, we love the Galaxy Tab 10.1. It's a genuine rival for the Apple iPad 2, proving thinner, lighter and with a screen that's even better. There's still a more impressive choice of applications available for the iPad 2, and devices l...

Samsung's original Galaxy Tab from 2010 had a 178mm (7-inch) screen and was small enough to fit (just) in your pocket. The updated version may or may not owe some inspiration to a certain US-based manufacturer of tablets, but it's certainly cute, slim...

 If you don't need a tablet you can fit in your pocket (the HTC Flyer and BlackBerry PlayBook are both worth a look on that count) the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 can compete with the iPad 2 in most areas--it's no wonder Apple has been keen to block it w...
