Asking questions are in fact good thing if you are not understanding something completely, except this paragraph presents
fastidious understanding yet.

32,900 is it 32 GB internal memory. Where is it available?!? TIA!!!

geekninja · 14 years ago

It’s an outstanding device that’s well worth the price. I made a review of it on my blog. :)

Robert V · 14 years ago

Pwede na rin, may kamahalan pero mukhang bawi naman sa specs at performance. But I still love my GNote though. :D

geekninja · 14 years ago

I bought this tab. Yes, it’s a bit pricey, but the screen alone makes it worth every penny. It’s an amazing device, seriously. I think it’s the perfect size. I feel that if you’re gonna get anything above 9 inches, go get a laptop instead. :-)

Sa ganyang presyo, dapat touchscreen TV na lang. Mahal-mahal tapos gawa lang pala sa china…

EarlZ · 14 years ago

And that said TV is also made in china, so whats your point?

EarlZ · 14 years ago

It still has the same screen inconsistency as the galaxy s2, both store units I saw had different screen qualities.. none really better than each other and also the color saturation on skin tones are a bit too much, they also applied a more agressive sharpening filter on the mdine engine.

It’s selling for P34,000 in samsung shops. I bought one in greenhills for P31,000 with no samsung warranty. It’s the best. I’m also eagerly awaiting for the asus transformer prime tf700t in the second half of the year. If the ipad 3 does not have a flash at the back, i’m getting the asus transformer prime.

Ray · 14 years ago

This price point makes it compete with the Transformer Prime 32 GB + Dock… The many problems the TF Prime has pulls it down a bit but I’m hopeful that Asus will fix them in the future.

Phillip · 14 years ago

This what I’ve been waiting for! Well, at least last year. Since I owned a super AMOLED displayed phone before, it has been my standard when it comes to screen quality. Whenever I use other phones’ display, i keep comparing them to Super AMOLED and just misses it. For me it’s not “JUST THE SCREEN,” but it’s “THE SCREEN” because how mainly do you use the phone/gadget? Since more or less 90% of the time/usage you rely on the screen, so why not get the best? Just my 2 cents. ;)

NineSwordz · 14 years ago

Totally agree.

Reia · 14 years ago

Ditto! I used to have a Samsung Wave I which has Super Amoled & bought a Wave II in its place when it was stolen. Although the Super LCD was really good & i’ve never had to use more than “1” for screen brightness; compared to Super Amoled it felt like a few levels downgrade to me.
I almost bought a Galaxy note since it’s the only one with Super Amoled albeit I find the screen too small. This tab came at just the right time. I’ve been waiting for the 32gb since all I see are the 16gb version. :) Now if only the price drops even by a few thousands then we’re good. :D

Ilang GB yung Php32,990?

hanjo · 14 years ago

ipad3 or ipad2s whatever apple will call it will announced this coming march so better wait for it, there’s also Asus Memo to look forward to. Since I discovered the oil slick in Galaxy Tab 10, I lost my interest in Galaxy Tabs.

kevin · 14 years ago

Apple’s upcoming iPad3 may be exciting to look forward to but with iOS it looks good, polished and simple but Android is more flexible therefore users have more freedom with their units. Although Sammy’s tablet is one of Android’s best, I am saving money for the ASUS Transformer Prime tablet because aside from its hardcore specs, its vaunted battery life eventually is the dealmaker for me.

Edwin C · 14 years ago

Asus,Samsung, Acer…etc. Lahat gaya-gaya sa Apple.

miongb · 14 years ago

this is overpriced! and if samsung says that it is priced thst way is because of its super amoled screen, then i dont need it for a tablet! i own the original tab 7 and thanks to the guys at xda, i installed a custom rom and its now way faster and smoother than my officemate’s galaxy tab 7 plus! for this price, better wait for the quad core prime!

dude · 14 years ago

For the price I don’t think it is worth it being that the Asus memo is coming soon at around 10k and has quad core and a pen. My opinion. I do love Samsung but there tablets are just over priced. I don’t need HD video capture on a tablet. Make the camera 2 or 3 mega pixel and that’s enough. For tablets the front facing camera is more important to me then the rear shooter

jizzyeah · 14 years ago

Buy this or wait for around 8 months til Windows 8 tablets come out? lol

booboo · 14 years ago

maganda nga yung maraming sizes for more choices. may mga kilala ako na ayaw ng iPad kasi masyadong malaki. Meron naman may ayaw ng Kindle Fire kasi masyado daw maliit. So 5/7/8/10, pili na kayo. :p

jm · 14 years ago

what is the use of tablet if you already have an smartphone? portability? meron naman superlight laptop or ultrabook for longer battery life full access pa compared sa tablet na limited lang ang pwede mo magawa. I will not waste my money for nonsense tablet. I will invest for i7 laptop with ssdrive.

alainL · 14 years ago

A lot, and actually. Drawing, reading, gaming and movies. Just to name a few.

sophie · 14 years ago
