Okay and we have our YouTube viewers who have also asked some questions about the 7.7 particularly
in comparison to other tablets. So Rohanmishra26 and elphau have both asked for us to compare
the 7.7 to other tablets such as 10.1 and 9.6. So let’s have a look at it compared
to the iPad 2 the benchmark tablet out there. Okay so here we are we’ve got the Galaxy
Tab 7.7 next to the iPad 2. What we’re going to do now is take it through some browsing
to see how quickly it brings up text and then how quickly it brings up video and plays back
that video as well. So we’re both on the same page here we’ve
got the URL RitchiesRoom.com on both machines so let’s go make sure we go that the same
time. We can see here that the iPad 2 was a little bit quicker. So we’ll go right
in the article on the Samsung 7.7. And both are pretty close there you can see
we’re still waiting to for the video to load up on the Galaxy Tab 7.7. Now here it
is it’s come. So now we’re in the article let’s do some pinch and zooms. I’m going
to take my fingers and see the reaction there. We’ll just move this across so we can see
very clear writing there and it’s also very clear on the iPad 2 as well. And just to compare
the different pinch and zoom. Double click that there.
So what we’ll do now is we’ll press play on the two videos. Okay you can see here that
the 7.7 plays right away and that’s obviously part of having flash built-in here we’ve
actually got to press the play button actually within YouTube itself. So there we have it.
So what we’re going to do now is let’s play a little bit longer and then we’re
going to take them to full screen. So we’ll take this to full screen press there and full
screen here there we go. And then we’ll move them into landscape. Here we go.
You can see the difference here immediately is you’ve got the top and bottom black bars
on the iPad 2 and because it’s a 1280 by 800 screen on the 7.7 it takes up the whole
screen on a wide screen. Very good for watching movies as well.
Okay so there you have it the browsing and video playback if the iPad 2 versus the Galaxy
7.7. Until next time. �
