We had the chance to compare the Apple iPad with the Samsung Galaxy Tab. While the iPad has a metallic body , the Galaxy Tab has a plastic one. We found it easier to grip and type on the Galaxy Tab but found the large display on the iPad more fun to use. The iPad is heavier at 730g ( WiFi+3G version ) compared to the Tab at 385g.The iPad has a 9.7 inch (1024x768px) LED Blacklit display with IPS technology while the Tab has a 7 inch ( 1024x600px) TFT Display.

Thickness � iPad� 13.4mm vs Galaxy Tab 11.98mm. The iPad appears thinner due to the tapering but its thicker than the Tab.

Width: iPad 189.7mm vs Tab 120.45mm

The Galaxy Tab is very portable indeed but Android 2.2 seems more like a phone UI rather than a tablet UI. What do you think ?
