Among the largest names when it comes to the world of smartphones are Samsung Electronics and Apple Incorporated, which have been in a constant battle for the highest spot for quite some time now.
These two have been offering their market products that are state-of-the-art even since they had their very first launch in the industry of mobile devices. Samsung Electronics has turned to be a well-known name in this industry. On the other hand, it has struggled to be known in the market for tablets.
Now, let us see which one between Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 and Apple iPad Air is the better tablet.
When it comes to the display and design, Apple is still on top with its build quality that is exceptional and its design which is really breathtaking. Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, on the other hand, has received criticisms for using plastic in their products. Both of them have similar screen space. But, Samsung Galaxy Tab brings home the bacon with its 10.1-inch screen, since iPad Air only has 9.7 inches.
Talking about the quality, Apple iPad Air uses 1536 x 2048 pixels for its resolution. Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 is equipped with its 800 x 1280-pixel screen resolution. Apple iPad Air also gives its users some top notch gaming, video watching and web browsing experience.
Going to their hardware department, iPad Air has a really powerful Apple A7 processor, which is dual-core and which runs at 1.3 GHz. Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 is composed of a processor that is Android-based and is dual-core, as well, just like iPad Air’s. However, its speed is only 1GHz. Still, Galaxy Tab 10.1 manages to cater to its user’s needs by giving them an entirely different experience, as compared to iPad Air. The Apple device operates smoothly without letting its user experience delays and lags whenever applications are opened. On the other hand, this is not the case for Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1.
iPad Air remains on top when it comes to the camera specs. It has a 5MP camera and comes with features such as video recording at full HD, video stabilization, autofocus and face detection, but it does not come with an LED flash. Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 only has a 3.15MP sensor and for capturing video clips, it only uses 720p for the resolution. iPad Air’s secondary cam is set at 1.2MP while the Samsung device only has a VGA camera.
