According to a reliable source close to Samsung Philippines, the company will be releasing a WiFi-only version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab in the Philippines this quarter.
That means a more affordable Galaxy Tab will be available in local stores before the end of March 2011.
The indicative price, according to our source, is within the vicinity of Php25,000. Not bad but still a bit more expensive by a couple of thousand pesos compared to the entry-level iPad WiFi.
I used to be suggested this web site via my cousin.
I’m now not sure whether this put up is written by way of him as no one else recognise such specific approximately my trouble. You’re incredible!
Thank you!
sabi yung samsung galaxy tab wifi will sell at 399.. so more or less 18k… hmmmm is it because of ipad2? if it will sell at 20k here.. much better
20k na po xa! nakita ko sa cmk :)
okay lang ba ang arcos brands as alternatives? mas mura sila at android based ang os
Even if Apple will price the 1st Gen. iPad lower than 20K, I’d still pick the Galaxy Tab. Parang imposibleng nasa 25K pa din ang price kasi ilang beses na daw nagbaba ng price yung 3G+WiFi dahil sa China Tablets. Makakapag text at tawag ka na, 2 pa ang camera! Ang ayoko lang kasi yung smallish screen, and I find it sluggish sometimes. Minsan nag hhang, kelangan mag force stop ng apps like camera, tapos nagbblink yung screen.
Another DOA from samsung mas mura pa ipad2 24k lang san ka pa?
ipad 2 is out.. so i thought people will line up for it…samsung put so much premium pricing on their product.. but if you think tablet technology is becoming common. apple set the standard for pricing and quality..and others should follow
I am still waiting for honeycomb being ported to galaxy tab gen-1.
@Jhay:
Please look up the actual definition of open-source. Because you’ll find that Windows is on the other end of the spectrum.
Open-source doesn’t automatically mean having the most number of software available.
No thanks. Android Froyo or even gingerbread is not optimized for tablet use. It’s just an enlarged smartphone.
I would wait for honeycomb tablets or settle for the iPad.
wow nice… wait and see… hindi muna ako bibili ng laptop :p
did someone really bought the 3g version of this? LOL!
will anyone buy this one?
AHAHA, funyn people
i prefer galaxy tab with 3g..
Hindi po ito sulit. May makukuha na kasing Brand new Galaxy Tab phone version nang 26K. Isang libo na lang idagdag.
Will it come with honeycomb?
I would try iPad first before trying that. I want to get the best for my money.
difficult for me to choose..
IPAD2 or xoom
any suggestion out there?
Android phones are much cheaper than iphone. Why is it the other way around for tablets (ipad cheaper than galaxy tab)?
@ogago
No different? Your discernment reeks of stupidity.
You are no different from herce you effin troll!
Your comments are so annoying, shut the F up!
^
T@ng!na mo Jhay bakla ka, puro ka salita wala ka namang alam!
BOBO!
@yes man
thanks, dude!
@jhay,
isa kang idol, lupet ng mga posts mo, yan ang gusto ko!
Hintay pa rin ko iPad 2. When ba talaga, kuya?
Really updating to be the top. http://iloveyou-mydear.blogspot.com/2011/02/what-matters-most-relation-or.html
too late and too expensive (for an outdated os and machine). I think ill wait for the honeycomb batch of tablets.
still waiting for ipad2
@ac3buddy
Thank you Grammar Nazi.
Hi Jay,
it’s teaming with software.â€
You mean to say teeming? not teaming?
I am so excited to get my own tablet. As the price will be much cheaper here in the Philippines.
“Puh-lease, Windows is as open-source as you can get — it’s teaming with software.”
You are an idiot. Clearly you have no idea what open source actually means. Worse, you don’t even have the ability to use wikipedia to look it up! You should buy an iPad, its made exactly for idiots like you.
I’ll buy an Ipad than this one. For sure IPAD price will go down when Ipad 2 starts selling. So this Tab version won’t capture any market.
iEDU March 2 na rin release ng iPad 2? or launching lang? remember january announcement ng first iPad pero March na sya na-releae sa US?
In a few months, mas bababa pa ang price niyan, especially pag labas ng iPad 2.
Pandroid Sucks! Just wait for the iPad2. It will be released on March 2(US)
Same price as a netbook with decent specs.
nah, better wait for Honeycomb
I thought they did some price cuts on the original Galaxy Tab tablet?
I rather buy an iPad.
If it would run on Honeycomb I’m getting one. If not, iPad Wi-Fi only is still the best choice.
Spot on fellas, the iPad, though closed-source, has a rich developer base and really entices anyone with its UI.
Even geeks like iPad since it gets the job done right, unlike fragmented Android.
But still, I find Honeycomb a very feasible alternative to the Springboard. The Galaxy Tab running an old (and more importantly, unoptimized) version of Android is simply a no-no.
yeah.. and still ipad is still cheaper..
too late for samsung…
A bit late to the party for the Wifi-only version. Samsung would’ve capitalized on the market better if they released this alongside the 3G-capable version.
This galaxy tab sucks. The UI is laggy (used it firsthand) and the price — don’t get me started on that “uncompetitive” price. I’d rather buy an ASUS notebook instead. Windows vs Android on Tablets? Puh-lease, Windows is as open-source as you can get — it’s teaming with software. Forget all that APP crap. Full-fledged software is better.
sana mas mababa pa. any news about the specs..
The pricing if more than 23k is not competitive anymore since the 3g version can be bought for 26k in some stores. Hope they change their official price.
i’d love to have one
