Samsung ATIV Tab - Specs


Samsung's 
Ativ Tab tablet has just surfaced at IFA 2012. It features a Snapdragon S4 APQ8060A processor running at 1.5GHz, a 10.1-inch HD (1366 x 768) display, USB 2.0, uHDMI, and a microSD card slot. Samsung describes it as having "complete" Windows 8 functionality, fitting it within a very thin 9.9mm profile and a 570g weight. 
It is reasonably light. Lighter than the new iPad, however the Asus Vivo Tab RT weighs in at 520g, for a similar spec device. On the front of the Samsung Ativ Tab glows an LCD display with resolution of 1366 by 768 pixels. Humming inside it is a 1.5GHz dual-core processor accompanied by 2GB of RAM. There is a pair of cameras too, with the main one being of 5 megapixels, and the one in the front is a more basic 1.9-megapixel shooter meant for video conversations. Both 32 and 64GB models will be available, and storage can be expanded further by using a microSD card. Last but not least, the tablet is equipped with a 8,200mAh battery.the Samsung Ativ Tab is only 8.9 millimeters thin, which is quite good for a 10.1-inch tablet. And since the slate has Office Home and Student 2013 RT pre-installed, featuring Microsoft's Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote, users should have no troubles getting their work done even when on the go. Other features include tap-and-send functionality using near-field communication (NFC)

So Windows 8 tablets and PC's will be booming upcoming months. 
Windows 8 is due to be made available to the general public on 26 October. So far Samsung is yet to reveal pricing or availability details for the Samsung Ativ Tab but expect it to fall around this date.
