The 7-inch Android 2.2 Froyo tablet won’t have any different specs across different wireless carriers like AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon. However, it will miss some key features with respect to different mobile variants. You certainly deserve to recheck before shelling out £800.
No WiMax
Shockingly, the Galaxy Tab with Sprint will not have WiMax on board, which means terrible mobile internet!
HSPA+ omitted
The T-Mobile version of the Galaxy Tab omits HSPA+, which leave the tablet weak in data transmission. It will certainly bug you with poor speed data network.
No Voice Calling
Be it any variant, in US, the Galaxy Tab will not be able to make cellular voice calls. The facility is enabled via Bluetooth Headset in the European versions. The users will have to user other VoIP-based workarounds for voice functionality.
Only Wi-Fi enabled Video Chat
Qik video chat on the Galaxy Tab will only work over Wi-Fi. It’s a clever policy on the part of Samsung and the partner carriers to make maximum profit, but it’s gonna annoy you with low bandwidth.
Look what the nerds at TrustedReviews have to say about this iPad killer.
