I have an iPad2 and an iPhone4 and a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7
Let me tell you. The iPad2 (and new Ipad) is nice but too heavy. The iPhone screen is too small. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 has a beautiful Super AMOLED screen (1200x800) that is what Apple wants. It is vastly superior to yesterday's IPS LCD! the Tab is also very light, thin and has a 10+ hour battery. Apple has to compete with this superior tech.

Since the news out today was that Apple had to go with Samsung for new iPad displays, since LG and Sharp's quality wasn't up to snuff, I don't think Apple has another place to go. They're really between a rock and a hard place with Samsung.
Why? Your not thinking this threw, ok Apple has a 3.5" iOS device then the next step up is 9.7". Nothing in between. You might not understand but the millions of customers that Samsung, Barnes & Noble and Amazon sold 7" inch tablets to last year, do. I for one love my Samsung 7.7 tablet, best form factor ever, regardless of what Jobs thought. It fits nicely into my busy mobile life and a lot of other people agree as well. I get 12 hours of battery life out of my Samsung consistently, I charge it once every 3 days and it still has 30% on the charge when I do. So if Apple can match that, well they'll have one heck of a buying frenzy on their hands.
The first thing people always ask about the kindle fire is "oh this is the $200 tablet right?" The millions of people who "enjoy" their toy isn't because of the features it carries, but the price tag it has. You are a worthy exception because its always great to see tablets and mini tablets in the workplace. But no 7" tablet can begin to match up to the iPad. Its hard to call anything 7" a tablet. Just a color, multimedia e-reader.

Well the Samsung is 7.7 not exactly 7 and it's very, very usable. So much so that anyone who has used to a 10 inch tablet would have no problem using the Samsung. Apple due to it's screen ration would most likely use 7.8" and that is a very usable resolution. Are you just guessing here or have you used a Samsung 7.7 tablet before because I would put money down that if you played with it for a week you would be begging Apple to come out with one of their own.
Does anybody else find it odd that this rumor is released on the same day that Bloomberg reports that the new iPad Retina screens are all made by Samsung.
Is Samsung mocking Apple?
No. The two facts support the same thing. Samsung is releasing news that will cause their share price to rise. They're at an all-time high right now.

It's too easy to activate a borderless tablet by mistake. If it's small enough to hold in one hand, that's one thing. but a 10" tablet is clearly too big to work well without a border to hold it with. I'm not sure about 8", but my guess is that it would be too large to hold without a border, too.
Even if they hold a genuine info, the questions of whether they leak it as it is or not, is a different matter.

thanks for posting that, very interesting. it's sad that some people can be so petty.
as for the rumor, my guess is that the screens are going to be for dedicated remotes for the apple TV. that would make for a slick remote (with or without Siri), that would also function as a controller for games.
edit: speaking of petty, after reading Galbi's post, I'd like to add that I give major props to Koreans in general for their design talents, so many great designers (see yankodesign.com). it just appears that none of them are working in Samsungs mobile computing device department haha. they really need to transfer whomever made this beauty:

Relic offered a rather indepth reason behind his preference of a 7in tablet and his desire to purchase this rumored 7.85in iPad.
Spacevater simply saying a company other than Apple may have superior tech in some regards isn't pro-Anything, it's simply FACTUAL...Apple may have the best mesh of tech (hard and software) but that doesn't mean they always have the best tech.

Oh get off your Apple is the only company that can possibly make quality tech high horse. What am I talking about Apple doesn't manufacture anything, they develop. Samsung is one of the most innovative company's when it comes to screen technology in the world period. I would never own a flat screen TV that wasn't manufactured by Samsung. They are the best, just as Apple is the best at designing computers, I didn't say manufacturing because they don't do that, they hire company's like Samsung. Why because they can make things like the Retna display possible. We all have a dream but it's finding good people to make those dreams come true that's the hardest.
Oh and the reason why us so called payed by Samsung employees jump to the oppourtunity to praise them is because we own a product by them and it's probably incredible, just like you do with your Apple products. Me to, I do the same with Apple,
No. The two facts support the same thing. Samsung is releasing news that will cause their share price to rise. They're at an all-time high right now.

Yea I guess your right, the more I think about it I would be doing a lot of wiping. Just thinking at how it would look though makes me drool. Functional or not, yea I still would want one.
[QUOTE=Apfeltosh;2071156]Wow, great journalism. Almost on par with the horrid investigative analysis of CNET. And for those crying NDA breach, get a life. This is a rumour and Samsung is not stupid enough to do this for fear of retribution.

Spacevater said, to paraphrase for you, I'll try and keep the words at one or two syllables:
"iPad = good. I like Samsung 7.7 due to weight and better portability plus deeper blacks. it is a good product. Apple needs to compete here."
Now considering that spacevator owns an iPad and likes the 7.7 and prefers it's size...wouldn't that suggest that he desires to actually get the iPad 7.85 if it were to be released? Could you not read that between the lines? It's quite obvious actually.
you need to familiarize yourself with Zither...90% of the time he's being either facetious, sarcastic, or mocking...the other 10% of the time he actually makes good posts. once you familiarize yourself it's rather easy to discern which is which.

Nope I was here waaayyy before you ever were so I think I'll stay a while if you please.
I wasn't talking about the performance of Samsung tablets on the market just that there is quite a few people that would appreciate a iPad 7.8 tablet.
Commenting on your post I was talking about Samsung's display market in which they are king at the moment just like Apple is in the tablet market.
you need to familiarize yourself with Zither...90% of the time he's being either facetious, sarcastic, or mocking...the other 10% of the time he actually makes good posts. once you familiarize yourself it's rather easy to discern which is which.
thanks for the lesson, but I think I, anantksundaram, and likely most of the people here, would rather the trolls just leave so we can have a productive discussion
about those screens.. anybody else think apple is coming out with a 1080p resolution remote for their TV? this rumor makes me think apple might actually do the TV thing.
about those screens.. anybody else think apple is coming out with a 1080p resolution remote for their TV? this rumor makes me think apple might actually do the TV thing.
I think both are simply 'throw them off' rumors designed to keep the competition scrambling to lie about their own products and waste hundreds of millions preparing for a storm that won't ever come.

it's possible but I think that'd be pointless...for one it'd severely limit one handed operation...secondly, though Apple is rich as hell, it's a needless expense on a remote...and thirdly a simple app for an iPad or an iPhone would be just as productive IMO.
a 7.85in remote just seems illogical. Especially if it's only a remote.
Though "Find my Remote" would be an epic and much needed feature!!!

Why are you guys evading my question - originally posed to Spacevater - on what the market acceptance for this 7.7" Samsung product has been? If it's been poor, why? If you think it's not, any proof?
Who cares what a few Android geeks think in an Apple forum. All you guys ever go on about is the wet dreams you have with some obscure Samsung product.
You guys get off it. Indeed, get off here, if you please.
Nope I was here waaayyy before you ever were so I think I'll stay a while if you please.
I wasn't talking about the performance of Samsung tablets on the market just that there is quite a few people that would appreciate a iPad 7.8 tablet.
Commenting on your post I was talking about Samsung's display market in which they are king at the moment just like Apple is in the tablet market.
you need to familiarize yourself with Zither...90% of the time he's being either facetious, sarcastic, or mocking...the other 10% of the time he actually makes good posts. once you familiarize yourself it's rather easy to discern which is which.
thanks for the lesson, but I think I, anantksundaram, and likely most of the people here, would rather the trolls just leave so we can have a productive discussion
about those screens.. anybody else think apple is coming out with a 1080p resolution remote for their TV? this rumor makes me think apple might actually do the TV thing.

I think both are simply 'throw them off' rumors designed to keep the competition scrambling to lie about their own products and waste hundreds of millions preparing for a storm that won't ever come.

it's possible but I think that'd be pointless...for one it'd severely limit one handed operation...secondly, though Apple is rich as hell, it's a needless expense on a remote...and thirdly a simple app for an iPad or an iPhone would be just as productive IMO.
a 7.85in remote just seems illogical. Especially if it's only a remote.
Though "Find my Remote" would be an epic and much needed feature!!!
