The Samsung Galaxy View on Oversized Tablets

E-mail Print PDF

Samsung is the next company to take on the oversized tablet concept with the Galaxy View-- an 18.4-inch device the company claims offers an "unprecedented mobile entertainment experience."

Galazxy ViewDesigned primarily for media consumption (so much so it even has a built-in kickstand-slash-handle on the back), the Galaxy View has a 1920x1080 resolution display, stereo speakers, 1.6GHz octa-core processor, 2GB RAM, 32/64GB storage, micro SD slot and a 5700mAh battery powering up to 8 hours of video playback on a single charge. As such it does not really look ideal for portable use outside of the house, what with it weighing 2.65kg.

On the software side it runs on Android as modified with a "video-centric interface"-- meaning a dedicated home screen showing all available video services in an easy to use grid.

Samsung is still to announce when the Galaxy View will actually be available.
