The Verge - How many tablets can Samsung possibly need?
My Tech Update - Samsung is on a gaming spree these days. Barely a week before they came out with Gamepad and Mobile Console app and now they have unveiled Special Game Edition of the popular Samsung Galaxy Tab 3. This special Tab 3 8.0 game edition comes bundled with Game Pad console and an HDMI adapter. That is fine, however the GamePad can only hold up smartphones or tabs ranging between the screen size of 4 to 6.3 inch and as we know Galaxy Tab has a 7 inch screen. So clearly this whole package is meant for those who plan to play games on their huge TV screens by connecting Galaxy Tab 3 through HDMI cable via HDMI adapter.
SamMobile - Despite running on Android 4.2.2 out of the box, both the 8 and 10.1-inch models of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 miss an important feature from the last-but-one version of Android – multi-user support. However, we’ve received a few screenshots that confirm multi-user functionality will be making its way to both tablets via a software update, which should make life easier for those who share their tablets with others.
AllThingsD: Samsung has enjoyed much success with its Galaxy S family of smartphones. But now it seems like every mobile device that comes from the company has the “Galaxy” name on it. Samsung’s spiel might be that it is using the name to provide a unified brand across its products, but part of me suspects that they’re also trying to ride the coattails of the Galaxy S’s wins. The end result is confusion for the consumer.
I’m not one for taking pictures with tablets, but the Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 has a five-megapixel camera on the back, and a front-facing 1.3-megapixel camera. The Kindle Fire HD doesn’t have a camera, and the Nexus 7 only has a front-facing camera. Picture quality is decent, though like many mobile devices, it struggles with indoor environments.
