Based on an Intel processor, this tablet great mid-range offers all the qualities of a digital home slate, but really shines in any field.
the promise
Difficult to stand on the tablet market, ruthlessly dominated by iPad! The new large format Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 inch model 3, trying to occupy the mid-range sector. For 379 euros, it unprocesseur integrates Intel Atom dual heart, an HD screen and a memory card reader. Offer does in practice a good value for money?
reality
This tablet displays a thoughtful design and its finishes are impeccable. It is thin (8 mm), and the edges of the screen are neither too large nor too small. The assembly is satisfactory, although the tablet is made exclusively of plastic. In addition, if the March 10 inch Galaxy Tab is relatively light (510 grams), the 16/10 of the screen makes it a little heavy when holding it horizontally, which is not the case for tablets to 4/3 screen.
Autonomous and functional
The tablet takes advantage of the software that the Korean manufacturer has developed for Android environment. The GUI system is fluid and very convenient to use, as well as the various applications that Samsung offers its users: excellent video and audio players, agenda very comprehensive and easy to pick up, etc..
Internet browsing is fluid and the tablet is powerful enough to handle any type of office applications, multimedia and some basic 2D games. The videos are played in all standard formats up to 1080p resolution (with subtitles). The 5 megapixel sensor slate allows for him to record video in 720p correct, but in the absence of autofocus, photos are of poor quality.
According to our measurements, the device provides about 8 hours of battery life, which is pretty good. The tablet may take several weeks before (WiFi connected). Its screen displays beautiful colors and wide viewing angles, with a maximum brightness of 412 cd / m² and a very acceptable contrast ratio of 958:1. Its definition, however, is a bit feeble for such a diagonal 1280 x 800 pixels.

Forget 3D video games
Despite windfall results in the test programs as Antutu (21,193 points) and Quadrant (6436 points), this tablet is not at all powerful enough to run games like GTA Vice City, even with the details to a minimum. We therefore assign the two previous scores "crazy" in the x86 Atom processor, the test programs are still struggling to assess. The integrated the Atom (a PowerVR SGX544MP2) chipset is not very effective, despite its operating frequency revised upwards by Intel (400 MHz). Finally, note that the tablet has only 1 GB of RAM is limited!
the verdict
Good for office, surfing the Web and watching movies, the Samsung tablet is hampered by the low resolution of the screen and less powerful processor. A book with a basic family use.Difficult to find a real value, apart from its satisfactory autonomy, as well as its original price is a bit high (379 euros).
