The much awaited first batch of Windows 8 tablets from Samsung was also unveiled during their press conference yesterday, but surprisingly these slates weren’t sporting the company's new Exynos 5 Dual processor that we recently featured. These Windows 8 tablets, along with the ATIV S smartphone, belong to the ATIV series which, according to the South Korean spokesperson, is an anagram of VITA which means life. These slates are ATIV tab, ATIV Smart PC and ATIV Smart PC Pro with the first one being a full-pledge 10.1†tablet while the two latter are 11.6†convertibles or PCs with detachable display and comes with a keyboard dock. Running the show for the Samsung ATIV tab is dual-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 and is backed by a gigabyte of RAM. Although still considered as a tablet, the ATIV Smart PC and the Smart PC Pro are more of a PC than tablet in terms of the things under its hood.
