Samsung vs. Apple
In past two years, Samsung and Apple, the two leading companies have been in tough competition with each other for better technology. The competition has existed for providing more advanced phone sets, laptops and other technological products. More recently the competition of technology has shifted to tablets, which is currently more in demand by the end users. Both companies are always pushing their best to provide customers with more advanced systems and capture the maximum customer base. Although most functionality of tablets remains the same by both providers, they still tend to have some differences in their products. And spend huge sum of money on research and development to provide a better product in the market than competition.
The two most competing tablets available in the market are apple iPad 4 and Samsung galaxy tab 2, 10.1. They both can be distinguished on the basis of their appearance and provider logos, but they also carry many distinct features. It is hard to say outright that one tablet is better than other, because they both give each other quite a tough competition. Both tablets have their strengths and shortcomings, but are doing well to survive in this tough competitive environment. The areas in which both tablets can be compared are such as speed, security, app store, general performance and its usability to the end user.
To most people including me speed and security are the two most essential things in a tablet or a laptop. Apple products come with greater restrictions which limits the users to use less applications on them, but that helps in protecting the system from viruses and other computer threats. And iPad 4 is coming with a new processor chip which would fasten it by four times from the previous one. And the lack of availability of unnecessary data on the tablets provides a better speed but does not satisfy the needs of demanding user. The option of anti-virus and higher inner ram models solves the problem of security and speed

    Typically laptops come with more memory (4-8GB) than tablets. Tablets typically come with an average of 1GB of RAM. If the purchase is for memory purposes then the laptop would be a better option. However, the tablet can have increased memory it just comes at a steeper price ($2000) than the laptop. The battery life of the device is important depending on how much the device will be used. The average battery life for a laptop is about six hours. Let’s keep in perspective it takes more “juice” to run a laptop than a small tablet which has an average battery life of ten hours. The main focus for a purchase would be price, memory, and battery life. Laptops, like desktop PCs before them, have a built-in benefit over tablets, and that benefit is power. As a rule, laptops have more powerful processing hardware, allowing for a wider range of uses, faster performance and better multitasking. Laptops can easily handle common tablet uses—like Web browsing and media streaming—and then go significantly further, with uses ranging from simple data entry to complex tasks like photo and video editing.…

    What exactly was covered in the great Patent Trial of the Century between Apple and Samsung? I've had a surprisingly hard time figuring this out. However, after reading the verdict, the patents themselves, and a bunch of news summaries, it seems to me that there may be less than meets the eye here. As near as I can tell, the jury found Samsung guilty of violating the following Apple patents:…

    While the iPad has an abundance of appealing features, I find it hard to want to join in the hype and rush out and buy one. In my research of the product I find it has an undeniable appeal but, it just doesn’t appear to be practical or necessary. The iPad has some major downsides including its inability to load flash pages and perform some tasks. It offers applications for basic word processing and office tasks but, at a price of 9.99 each.…

    There are several companies that are the Note’s competitors, so let’s start with the top competitors: The Apple iPad is the first affordable tablet computer worth owning, but it won 't replace your laptop (yet). The Xoom 's spec sheet is enough to make any tablet tremble, but the price is high and Google still has some work to do before its tablet software experience is as fleshed out and intuitive as Apple 's. The Galaxy Tab is a beautiful product with features that will make iPad owners envious, but its in-between size and possible carrier commitments hold it back from broad appeal. The ViewPad 7 offers a solid platform for Android 2.2, but it comes off as an oversize, overpriced smartphone--not a Netbook alternative. Now there are two competitors that we want to note as their product has not hit the markets yet, but they are targeting our segment target as well, BlackBerry Playbook and the Vizio VIA tablet both are due to release their tablets in the next 3 to 6 months. But we also have to address what the competition is using as their key platform or landscape options for their tablets as this will affect the target market as well:…
