SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB 27.0: THE NEXUS BEST THING

    The Nexus 7's closest rival, this offers the same size screen - although the resolution is lower at 1024x600 - a dualcore 1GHz chip and 8GB of storage plus microSD. While this Galaxy's performance is above par for the price and is eminently portable, the screen is a little lacklustre with lifeless and dull colours, and has a poor reaction to bright sunlight - not ideal for a tablet that is designed to be taken out and about.
    The Tab 27.0's main problem is more fundamental, though: the Nexus 7 is the same size, does all the same things, but happens to do them better, whilst costing less.

A decent tab from a "name" brand, but the Nexus is better
