How will this device compare to the Galaxy Tab?

I wonder whether this tablet just made my Tab obsolete. Any clues?
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App

Xoom is a completely different device. I do not see how it can obsolete SGT. They can coexist quite peacefully

I also own a Tab. I think it is just a smart phone with big screen. Samsung Apps are not helping much with that. Let's see what Honeycomb can do on 7" screen. When tab will still have android < 3.0 for months after XOOM coming out, XOOM will definitely be better tablet than Tab at least for a while.

I agree with above. I am very happy with my tab but after watching the xoom keynote I am already trying to figure out how to sell my tab and grab the xoom on release day lol. Honeycomb looks smoking!! Does anyone have any clue whether we will get honeycomb at all and whether it will have a similar ui as the xoom? Or will samsung ruin it with touchwiz?

don't get rid of the Tab just yet... if you wait for the Honeycomb update, you'll have the Xoom's little helper
after all, the Tab is still more portable.

Just hope that Samsung gets Honeycomb out for the tab better than they did the US Galaxy S devices...

I hear ya I don't think I could ever go with a ten inch. Now if the xoom had a 7 inch I would probably trade up. The only thing I hate about the tab is samsung and having to rely on them for updates. I have been waiting for an official update for my captivate forever. If it wasn't for this community I wouldn't even have froyo. What a joke.

I had the galaxy tab for about a month. It was just like a galaxy phone(I had that POS as well) this will blow it out of the water

The sgstab was severely outdated by the xoom lol
Itsbasically a 7inch phone
It does everything my epic 4g does, cept bigger
I really hate that I like a couple of motorola products :/ but they're gonna be the htc this gen.
Actually, didn't they also launch 2.0 with the droid lol
So maybe 4.0 will be motorola too

Don't get me wrong. I liked the tab, it just felt EXACTLY the same as my fascinate does. And my fascinate sucks. I won't buy a Samsung no matter what ever ever ever ever ever I won't say it again but u get the point.

I hear ya but I have a captivate and love most everything about it except the gps and the fact that I have to rely on samsung for updates. If I never found xda and custom roms I probably would have sold it. But as fast as my tab goes I absolutely love it. It is everything I like about my captivate plus more. I got the car dock and I gotta say the portability is my favorite part I think the xoom is gonna be to hard for using it anywhere except college work and home. I have friends with the ipad that used it away from home for the first week and now it collects dust on the coffee table. Plus I think when three tab gets honeycomb they will be equals.

Same here. I had a Galaxy S i9000M (Canadian Bell version), they're frying all over the place, it's a joke, the motherboards have to be replaced (go check the forum here on XDA, some people are on their 3rd-4th bricked phone!). And my warranty was voided because the USB port had "liquid damage" (which it never had, they just check the USB pins, if it's blue-ish instead of golden, that's it. It was simply due to moisture, thanks to the cheap plastic "protector"). Worst experience ever, NEVER gonna buy Samsung again.

Xoom vs G-Tab
My friend has the galaxy tab. It is small, for a tab. It is huge, for a phone. I got an iPad, which will quickly be sold to fund the purchase of my Xoom when it hits, and the 9.6" screen does not make it a hassle to carry around. As far as comparison, there really is none. They will run different versions of android, the Xoom will have a dual-core CPU with integrated graphics from nvidia. 'nuff said. Motorola just got my business back. The last phone i bought from them was the first-gen Razor. Samsung will need to do more than put a super AMOLED screen in the GTab II.

When the Xoom is finally released, Motorola are already quoting 'March' delay the Xoom will be 40% more expensive than the Tab, not a lot of competition between the two.
Buying any of these new android tablets on the day of release sounds like a bit of a mugs game, wait a month and they're $150 cheaper, three months and they're half price

I second that but this community is pretty good at releasing the new android version when Samsung fails to do so. I have had froyo on my captivate since it was leaked and from what I heard cm7 gingerbread is on its way. So hopefully even if Samsung drags their feet as usual we should see some unofficial build.

Motorola announced yesterday that they may look into releasing a 7"-8" tablet in the near future. (for those of you who like the smaller form factor)

It a samsung policy to charge carriers for what it considers to be standard update, (not a critical one, where there are bugs etc) carriers don't want to take up the option (it can cost $$$$$$$$, who can blame them) so it's the end user who misses out

No one has confirmed this and Samsung has denied it. At this point until someone has better information that supports the story you are referencing, you are spreading malicious rumors and this is coming from a current unhappy Samsung customer who can't wait to get back with HTC.

Motorola has confirmed a end of February release for the xoom. Likely it will have some type of subsidized priceing because all the hype around this being the first tablet with 3.0 and the most powerful to date. They wouldn't want to ruin that hype with and over pricing of the tablet. That's just my 2cents

Nexus S2 or S "plus"

Well the vibrant plus had been announced.
- T-mo's 4G
- FFC
- Froyo
and more I'm sure.
So maybe the Nexus S2 rumors are true.
I have a feeling Samsung is pushing updated phones too quick. At least wait a year.

But I guess the only thing keeping the from releasing another nexus would be Google. Unless Google felt the need to have a larger format dev phone like 4.3" screen, bring back HD video recording and possibly add a dual core processor.
Don't forget google already announced ice cream for this summer and the gingerbread isn't stale yet!

Dont think this will happen to us, the Nexus S is not a feature phone

I'm sorry, but anyone who buys a Samsung-supported phone at this point deserves what they will inevitably get.
The Behold II and Galaxy S fiascos should be ample warning: Samsung will NOT support the software on a phone it releases in the USA. The Vibrant 4G will release with Froyo, and will reach end-of-life with Froyo, except for custom ROMS.

Kill TouchWiz already!

Is it really Samsung, or is it Tmobile that delays the updates; or a combination of both?

I like the fact that the new Vibrant Plus has a 1650mAH battery and 4g
This is why you ALWAYS buy phones with the idea that it will be left for dead by the manufacturer as soon as you buy it (unless of course you have a Nexus )
Couldn't imagine how crappy old Vibrant owners who signed 2-year contracts must feel since most people imagine they will have their phone be relevant for at least a year but it's already a "dinosaur" in their eyes in a little less than 6 months

A year is a VERY long time in the smartphone ecosystem, unless you're in a closed system like the iPhone with only yourself to compete with.
I've resigned myself to a new phone every 6 months for as long as I feel compelled to have the "latest, greatest" device.
A lot of Vibrant owners pissed off because of this, but I'm not going to fault Samsung for releasing what's a pretty major upgrade (true HSPA+ and FFC) 6-10 months after the SGS line came out.
Adding SAMOLED Plus would have made it less upsetting to most, I suspect.
I won't give Sammy a pass on the lack of Froyo progress on US model Galaxy S phones, though. They obviously have it (i9000 does, as does this); but is it possible their carrier partners are the problem here?

Seriously?
C'mon, the Vibrant is still "relevant" and anything but a "dinosaur". It's still got one of the best screen technologies out there, a damn good GPU and CPU, 16gb internal and external sd cards, supports 7.2Mbs. Most non-XDA-member types will still love that phone for quite some time to come.

My point in all of this was Samsung denied that they were making a nexus 2 phone up until two weeks before release and dropped that they are making the nexus s; very clever.
Just like there were early rumors of vibrant plus and those were dismissed then at the end of CES it is announced.
So there have been rumors of a nexus s2 and I guess those have been dismissed as well unless they are are going to drop 2 weeks before google's release of "ice cream" a nexus s "plus". Speculative, I know but it fits the MO of Samsung and Google - short ly (apx 6mos.) after the mytouch was made into a dev phone the nexus one was announced with android 2.2. Maybe with the rapid rise of dual core phones and larger screens; google and samsung will want a dev phone this summer that will provide these options (dual core and larger screen) for devs to design HQ games and apps on. Because lets face it Apple iOS is one up on android because the quality games and that is it. Sony is releasing this year a PSP android gaming phone so I can only imagine google wanting their dev phones to start computing in that area as well.
G1 dev phone released Dec 2008
Mytouch "magic" ion dev released phone Aug 2009
(6 months span)
Nexus One dev phone released Jan 2010
Nexus S dev phone released Dec 2010
( ~ 6 months span)
Nexus S "plus" maybe in June/July 2011? marketing wise would take some steam out of apple's typical iphone release date.
Can't deny that there is some indicators of a possible marketing pattern.

EVERY phone you buy is irrelevant within a matter of months, if not weeks by the standards you seem to be applying.

I would never buy a Touchwiz phone. Ever. Straight garbage.

Nexus S is not a touchwiz phone. The primary reason of thread was to create a discussion whether or not people saw the viability of another nexus product releasing in 6 mos.

*Sigh* there are literally hundreds of these threads. The Nexus S is by far the faster phone and better is a subjective judgement. The Nexus S gets updates from Google and does not come saddled with carrier bloatware or Samsung's TouchWiz. Besides, the Captivate is on AT&T and if you're going over there you might as well just wait for the Atrix to come out if you want the latest and greatest.
If you're locked into Tmo and want by far the best single core phone and arguably the best phone on the market period, get the Nexus. If you want to be crippled by having to wait for Samsung to decide whether or not they want to update and fix the plethora of issues that plague the Galaxy S line then get the Vibrant/Vibrant 4G (coming soon)/Captivate/Fascinate/Epic 4G

I'd say go with the Captivate. Why? Nexus S probably won't give you 3g. They both have the Super AMOLED and the Hummingbird. The Captivate is great, but it does have touchwiz. Just make sure you get at least Froyo on the Captivate.
IMO Froyo is the only OS that you need to be upgraded to. Gingerbread is a kindof pointless update to be completely honest. Eclair brought multitouch, Froyo brought Flash and push... Gingerbread brought NFC...

The Captivate had a lot of potential to be a great phone, but I went through two over the course of 30 days and both had terrible gps and shutdown issues. The slow release of Froyo is unfortunate, but the quality of ROMs available is outstanding and if I had kept the phone I wouldn't have kept it stock.
I returned my Captivate and cancelled my extension because of the shutdown issues and poor attitude of the radio shack manager towards helping me find one in the "good" IMEI range.
Based on my research those 30 days that I had the captivate, aside from the Nexus S I will have a hard time recommending another Samsung phone.

I have the captivate right now, and I'm most likely switching to the Nexus S when it comes out with proper bands.

Why wouldn't the Nexus S give 3G? Unless this is a specific issue with canadian carriers and assuming the Nexus S is one with the proper bands it would offer the same coverage as the Captivate minus everything that makes Samsung phones suck (Samsung support).

I believe anderdroid was replying under the assumption that we were talking about the CURRENTLY available Nexus S being used on AT&T rather than some as-yet-to-officially-announced AT&T version or (foreign model with AT&T bands).
You will never get the current model to do anything faster than EDGE on AT&T.
Hardware design-wise, the Captivate was actually my favorite of the Galaxy S phones released in the US, but I've never owned one.

Boy...I have both...and I can seriously say that as far as stability is concerned SGS is better. I am so pissed with the terrible issue of phone rebooting during the call on nexus S..and all google has to say is we are very near to fixing it.
On the other hand I do like the fact that this phone will be able to get all latest updates...so for me when choosing between SGS and SNS its about stability and bleeding edge...if you use your phone for fun and not lot of business Nexus S and for serious stuff SGS...
Hope this helps.

possible new sprint phone with keyboard

I was talking to a friend of mine at the sprint store. He said that sprint and Samsung is going to release a new dual core processor android phone with keyboard (maybe like the at&t captivate glide). possible to replace the epic and possible by the end of the year. He said that the epic is still a good seller. When i saw the at&t captivate glide with 1GHz Nvidia Tegra 2 i wondered if that was the spec for the no show epic 2. If i get any more info i will post it.

Cool rumor.
/me waits for more info

Reminds me of a song:
I heard it from a friend whooooo heard it from a friend whooooo heard it from another that......

That'd be my next phone. Even though the carriers are slow with updates.

Yeah, Sprint doesn't tell stuff like this to the people at the stores. Ask me how I know.
Besides, Sprint already has the Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch and they are getting the Galaxy Nexus. I doubt that they would get a 3rd version of the same phone. Also, the Transform Ultra is about to come out and LG has an Optimus slider that is rumored to be coming to Sprint. There is still a hole in their line-up for a top tier phone with a keyboard, but I think they'll avoid an S II slider.
The more I think about it, I think your friend is getting confused with the Transform Ultra, which has a 1GHz single-core processor. It will be an upgrade to the Transform, but won't be as nice or as fast as the Epic.

Hey guys,
I just bought a magazine over the weekend called "Guide To Phone Apps". Not sure how long its been out, but it says to display until 12/27/11.
Anyway, the magazine itself is so-so, but they had a story on "Best Android Phones Right Now". The best part...they listed the Epic with all of these other phones: Samsung Galaxy SII, HTC Sensation, Motorola Atrix, LG G2x. They said it was at a disadvantage hardware-wise, but said it had an advantage of offering the slide-out qwerty keyboard.
I thought it was pretty cool.

screen size ?? 4.5 ??

Based on my using the screen keyboards on the Moment and Epic, there is no way I'll go to a phone without a physical keyboard.
I just got the Epic, currently on RandomRom 3.0, used so I don't have to renew my contract, and figure I will hold onto it for a while. Its a major upgrade over the Moment, even with the Moment at Android 2.2. Can't believe I waited this long to get the Epic...
I do hope there is a major upgrade a year or so out, but not holding my breath...

Looking for advice for my next phone

It seems that Cyanogenmod will not be bringing their next generation (ICS) to the Vibrant. While I really like the Vibrant, perhaps it is time to think about moving on.
Are there any recommendations for where I should be looking. Here would be my considerations:
- I like the hardware features (screen size and resolution and 16GB memory)
- I want the phone to have full Cyanogenmod support
- Cyanogenmod support should include a good gps and battery life (both of which are shortcomings for the Vibrant)
- I need to stick with TMobile
- And, I don't want the phone to cost an arm and a leg
Any thoughts, ideas, advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Nexus. Nothing else needs to be said. But if it does not come to to tmobile, I would lean towards HTC, they seem to be able to at least update phones.
Sent from my HP Touchpad using xda premium

I agree. Nexus should be #1 on your list if you want support and like the Vibrant. The HTC Amaze just came out on T-Mobile and has impressive hardware specs and is on the list from HTC to get the ICS update. It also has a 8MP camera with instant picture taking like the Nexus. I would imagine that Cyanogenmod will put out a mod for it. Though any new phones will need some time to see if CM will support it.

The Galaxy Nexus is a pentaband phone, so even if T-Mobile doesn't get it, it'll still run on their network. I normally tell people to get the phone that they like the best. Not everyone is an uber android geek. I told a buddy of mine to get the Droid Charge, he loves the thing. If he waited for the Galaxy Nexus, he'd be disappointed. It's personal preference.
It sounds like you like to tinker. People that like to tinker need a Nexus device because they'll always be the ones with the most support and the smoothest Android experience. I love my Vibrant, it was my first Android device. I'll probably always hold onto it as a backup phone with Stock Froyo + WiFi Calling, but in the future I'll most likely stick to Nexus devices.
Decide what you care about the most and less about hardware/appearance. If you want a custom experience more than what a manufacturer's android experience is, then go for a Nexus with optimized hardware. There are a lot of really nice, very cool phones out there but in terms of longevity of future up to date use, Nexus wins 10 times out of 10.
Also, I wouldn't buy a device based on the promise of updates. Carriers may intend to update a device, but several things can hinder that intention. In all reality, if an upgrade to ICS doesn't come until next August, well, what's the point? Remember, for a long time it looked like Samsung assumed that T-Mobile would want the Vibrant updated, and it didn't happen. There have several devices through the years that were suppose to be updated and never were. Always buy a phone for what it is, not what a carrier says it should be.

Regarding Galaxy Nexus being penta band, doesn't it mean only GSM is supported in 5 bands and not 3G? Why would Samsung build AWS band in a world phone for couple of carriers.

tmobil sgs2

What do you think of the T-Mobile sgs2? Will it get ice or will it end up being forgotten like the vibrant? Seems to me the T-Mobile sgs2 is more powerful than the nexus hardware wise
Sent from my T959 using xda premium

Higher specs are irrelevant. I'm sure it needs them to push TouchWiz. There is one device ICS is optimized for, and that's the Galaxy Nexus.
1) It's not Samsung that will abandon the SGS, it's T-Mobile
2) If you chase spec sheets you'll be replacing devices every 3-6 months.
Also, manufacturers are going to want to want their frameworks on top of ICS. There's no reference point for how ICS will look or run with TouchWiz, Sense or Motoblur on top of it. You have to go with what you know, not what you think you can assume.
