Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

Market Price: US$500

Providing a desirable alternative to Apple's iPad 2, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is the gorgeous second try by South Korea-based Samsung Electronics. The tablet, razor-thin and even lighter than the iPad 2, features 10.1-inch display in 1280 x 800 pixel resolution. It is available in 16 and 32 GB variants. The tablet has a dual-core NVIDIA processor and runs the latest Android 3.1 Honeycomb OS designed specifically for tablets. It even runs Adobe Flash, but the response is unimpressive when loading demanding content. If you're a fan of the various advantages of Android smartphones, this tablet should be on your shortlist.
