Good morning. While the festival of IT enthusiasts around the world, MWC (Mobile World Congress), was held successfully, Samsung unveiled its new product. Many people may have expected the Galaxy S8, but not the Galaxy S8, Galaxy Tab S3 will be the main character!
The Galaxy Tab S series is also popular because of its excellent quality, so I am proud of it at MWC.

Samsung Electronics has incorporated AKA's sound solution, which was recently acquired by Haman's famous audio brand, in Galaxy Tab S3. There is a lot of expectation that this will improve the sound quality.
What is the most significant difference between the Galaxy Tab S3 and Galaxy Tab S2 is that the S Pen is available.
S Pen is a representative electronic pen that can be used in the Galaxy Note series, and its recognition rate and pressure feeling are remarkable, making it a symbol of Galaxy Note. That's why the S Pen has not tended to be a good fit on the toxic tablet series. Previously, the Galaxy Note tablet was equipped with an S pen, but the Galaxy Note tablet series was discontinued, and a new series of Galaxy A tablets became available for some models only.
However, since the Galaxy A tablet series belongs to the low price type among the tablets that Samsung has introduced, users who want to use the S pen on a premium tablet would have expressed a lot of regrets.
It is expected that this Galaxy Tab S3 will be able to solve such a regret of users. In addition, the S pen is not included as an option, so if you buy the Galaxy Tab S3, the S pen will automatically follow and use the functions of the S Pen used in the Galaxy Note series of smartphones.
The S pen, which will be installed on the Galaxy Tab S3, supports a 4096 step pressure on a 0.7mm pen tip and has a thickness of 9mm like a regular writing instrument. I was a bit disgruntled when I touched the Galaxy Note smartphone because the S Pen is rather thin and I feel a sense of heterogeneity. The S pen to enter the tab S3 seems to have taken care of that part too
In fact, S Pen has been thinking that the screen is better suited for bigger tablets, but now I'm looking forward to it because I can do various functions using the S Pen on a wide screen.
The Galaxy Tab S3 is a premium product, and its spec is superior to other tablets. But the story will be different when compared with smartphones, but it is no exaggeration to say that the specifications are quite excellent among tablets.
AP | Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 |
lamb | 4GB |
display | 9.7-inch Super AMOLED display (2048 * 1536) |
camera | 500-megapixel front, 13-megapixel rear |
Storage space | 32GB (expandable to 256GB through Micro-SD) |
weight | 434g (429g for Wi-Fi models) |
battery | 6000mAh |
This is enough specs for smartphones, so it will be more than enough for tablets. Compared to smartphones, tablets are a bit more relaxed in terms of specs, because the calling features have been removed and the purpose of use is somewhat limited compared to smartphones, so the applications that users use are also somewhat limited. Of course, if users do a variety of activities through tablets, it may be a bit unreasonable to say that they are more than smartphones.
The Galaxy Tab S2 is a TABLET that anyone can see. I can assure you. We were faithful to the original function of the tablet and did not provide something like S pen or dedicated keyboard like Tab S3. A dedicated keyboard was added later.
But the Galaxy Tab S3 has a lot of additional elements. S Pen addition, but also the addition of a dedicated keyboard. Thinking about the keyboard, it's like a laptop or a PC.
In the case of iPad Pro, it promoted computers as advertising, and iPad Pro was not a simple tablet, but a computer that could improve productivity. The effect of doing this is that the dying tablet market can get out of the way, and by including it in the computer category, it can cause an optical illusion that "it's much cheaper than the Mac we sell, so it's worth buying ."
Of course, as many reviewers have tried to use the iPad Pro as a computer, it is obvious that the productivity is far behind that of Windows. In the meantime, iOS itself is not an OS that is aimed at productivity. But Apple has a lot of loyal customers. The loyal customers have shown that iPad Pro is not bad, and Apple's pencil is not as bad as you think.
Galaxy Tab S3 seems to have modified the strategy by looking at these Apple results. S Pen and Keyboard, "Our Galaxy Tab S3 is also more productive and should be included in the computer category, and the price is lower than the notebook or PC we sell ."
In conclusion, to evaluate the strategy, it seems likely that Galaxy Tab S3 will see its own quality rather than buying it expecting productivity. It's hard to be productive with mobile devices yet. Compared to Windows productivity, even if Android and iOS are winning, you can never get ahead. In the last few decades, the impact of Windows has been so great that there are many programs for Windows. No matter how many applications Android and iOS have, there is no comparison with the Windows applications that are represented by Hanxi exe, and companies release Windows first when launching the program.
One day, Android and iOS will be able to deliver similar productivity even if they are not as good as Windows. But I do not think it's too early to write now. Just like the iPhone 7's earphone jack has been removed.
