Apple iPad 4 vs Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, the new iPad is cooler

Few days later after Google announced its brand new 10-inch Nexus 10 tablet, which is being touted as “the world’s highest resolution tablet display, I have compared the device with Apple’s iPad 4.” Today, with the patent infringement battle between Apple and Samsung continues going, many of us may get confused about which one is better for buying this holiday season, so here I compared the Apple's revamped iPad with Retina Display with the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 to make your purchasing decision easier.

Display
Apple’s new iPad is up with a 9.7-inch Retina Display that offers a mesmeric screen resolution of 2048 x 1536 pixels at a 264 PPI (Pixel Per Inch) density and a 4:3 aspect ratio. While The Note 10.1 sports a 10.1-inch display that only has a screen resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels at a 149 PPI. I’m always curious about that why Samsung don’t use a higher resolution in order to compete with other high-end tablets.
Winner: Apple iPad is unbeatable in screen resolution.

Design
The iPad 4 is 241.2 x 185.7 x 9.4mm and 652g (662g for the Wi-Fi + Cellular model). The Galaxy Note 10.1 is 262 x 180 x 8.9mm and 597g (600g for the 3G version), and the Transformer Prime is 263 x 180.8 x 10.4mm and 586g. That's without the dock, of course: adding that takes its widest point to 19.4mm and its weight to 1,123g.

Processor

The new Apple tablet comes with its own A6X chip inside a dual core processor that clocked at 1.5GHz, which Apple said it would be twice as fast as that of the iPad 3. The Galaxy Note 10.1 powers the Sammy’s Exynos quad-core processor with a clocking speed of 1.4GHz. And according to the detail information from extremetech.com, iPad 4 benchmarks confirm the A6X as the most powerful SoC on the market.
Winner: Draw

Memory
Samsung galaxy Note 10.1 supply extra power to their quad core CPUs with 2GB of onboard RAM. It is a great advantage for the tablets over iPad 4, which is presumably to go with the same 1GB RAM of its predecessor.
Winner: Galaxy Note 10.1

Storage
Both the iPad and the Galaxy Note 10.1 are available with 16/32/64 GB on-board storage options. However, the Galaxy Note 10.1 also has the option to expand the memory to a further 64GB by using a microSD card. Both these tablets come in variants with added cellular connectivity, but only the iPad 4 can use LTE networks.
Winner: Galaxy Note 10.1

Camera
The iPad and Galaxy Note 10.1 both feature a 5-megapixel rear-facing camera. However, Samsung offers a 1.9-megapixel front-facing camera, while Apple offers a 1.2 megapixels one.
Winner: Galaxy Note 10.1

Battery 
The new iPad powers a 42.5 watt-hour battery, which Apple claims will provide 10 hours of usage. When compared to the iPad, Samsung doesn't claim anything, just saying the Galaxy Note 10.1 includes a powerful 7000mAh battery.

Operating System
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 runs on Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS), while the iPad runs on the latest iOS 6. Although Samsung has already begun delivery of Android 4.1 for the Galaxy Note 10.1 in some parts of the world, we should admit that there are still more great running apps on the iPad 4.

If the Galaxy Note 10.1 were to be a regular Android tablet, the discussion would have stopped there. However, a unique feature of the Galaxy Note 10.1 is the S Pen stylus which makes the tablet stands out among other available tablets. The Note 10.1 can take advantage of the ever increasing number of S-Pen optimized apps. The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 shares its resolution with the Galaxy Note 10.1, meaning all S-Pen optimized apps (S Memo, Air View, S Note and such) are available on the big brother as we.

This is the unique selling point of the Galaxy Note 10.1: do you want to be able to accurately outline graphs, take notes or go creative from a graphical perspective? The Galaxy Note 10.1 has you covered. Add Samsung’s software tweaks (Multitasking is a real winner), the Galaxy S3-inspired Smart Functions and the various useful features of Jelly Bean and the Note 10.1 seems to be a very potent tablet when it comes to its software capabilities.
Winner: Draw

Price
Samsung galaxy Note 10.1 32GB version comes for just $499, the price you may have to pay for the 16GB iPad 4. Of course, both of the devices will offer at a lower price during the holiday season. Just check the new information.

Conclusion
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 is an interesting tablet that many could grow fond of, especially if users utilize of the S-Pen. It is very useful for students. But judging overall, the Apple iPad 4 features a superior display, and has access to an unrivaled range of tablet optimized apps that offer more things to you.

So which one would you get? Thank you for Leave your opinion.

Google Nexus 10 tablet vs iPad 4, beats the iPad at a price of $399

Google on Monday introduced a new Nexus 4 smartphone developed together with LG to take on Apple's iPhone 5, launched a new version of its Nexus 7 tablet with cellular data connectivity, and a 10-inch iPad competitor named the Nexus 10 partnered with Samsung, which is the ultimate tablet for watching movies or reading magazines, Google said in its official blog. The Google Nexus 10 will be available from the Google Play Store in the US, UK, Australia, France, Germany, Spain, Canada, and Japan for $399 and up.

The series of new products all run Android 4.2, what the company called a "new flavor" of its mobile operating system code-named Jelly Bean.

The products were initially planned to be unveiled at a media event in New York, but Hurricane Sandy prompted the search company to cancel its media presentation. As such, the new products were simply unveiled via a press release on Monday.

As far as we know, the higher-end of Google's tablets–the Nexus 10–was built to go toe-to-toe with the iPad. How does it compare to Apple's market-leading slate? Let's take a look …

Dimensions

The Nexus 10 is thinner than the iPad, with slightly more oblong dimensions.

Weight

The Nexus 10 is a bit lighter than the iPad, despite its slightly larger display.

Display

The display is where things get real interesting here. The 10.055-inch Nexus 10 has a 300ppi display with a resolution of 2560 x 1600. The slightly smaller 9.7-inch IPS LED display on the iPad 4th generation model has 264ppi and a display of 2048 x 1536.

There are other differences, as the Nexus utilizes Super AMOLED technology, next to the iPad's IPS. We look forward to getting these remarkable displays next to each other for some real-world comparisons.

Processor

The Nexus 10 packs Samsung's dual core Exynos chip, while the iPad 4 carries the Apple A6X (also manufactured by Samsung). This will also get more interesting with hands-on time, but one thing we can make sure is that both tablets should perform well.

Cameras

At least on paper, cameras look close. Both sport 5MP rear shooters, with the Nexus 10 having a higher-megapixel front-facing camera.

RAM

The 4th-generation iPad's 1GB of RAM is unconfirmed, but we suspect it carries the same amount as the 3rd generation iPad. The Nexus 10, meanwhile, brings a full 2GB.

Storage

Apart from the iPad's pricier 64GB option, storage options are even. The big story here is that the Nexus 10 undercuts the iPad's equivalent models by US$100.

Wireless

The Nexus 10 launches as a Wi-Fi only affair, but it's possible that Google will later offer a mobile data-equipped version. The iPad is available in both Wi-Fi only and Wi-Fi + 3G/LTE models.

Intangibles

The Nexus 10 ships with the updated version of Jellybean, Android 4.2. It's a relatively minor update, but it adds some new features like Photo Sphere (a 360 degree panorama photo tool), updated Google Now, and multiple user accounts. It also adds a Swype-like trace keyboard, built right into stock Android.

The biggest weakness of Android tablets, though, is still their native tablet app selection. This is where the iOS App Store excels, with its 275,000+ library of tablet-specific applications. If the Nexus 10 – along with its little brother, the Nexus 7 – is popular enough, that gap could soon shrink. It already has, to some degree. For now, however, too many Android tablet apps are still stretched-out smartphone apps.

For many shoppers, the most important category will be price. Here the Nexus 10 has a big advantage. Google and Samsung wisely undercut the iPad, selling the 16GB model for US$399. A tablet is a big purchase, and it will be interesting to see how many holiday shoppers opt for the cheaper – yet arguably more powerful –Nexus 10.

Summing up: 

The Nexus 10 are getting it into customers' hands on Nov. 13  at a price of $399 for 16GB of storage and $499 for 32GB..

With the top-notch hardware, aggressive pricing, updated version of Jellybean, the device could position itself as a long-term threat to iPad.
