Galaxy tablet combines big screen and Super AMOLED Display to upgrade user experience
Years ago, the winning formula for gadgets was based on how small you can pack convenience into a single device. As a result, phones became slimmer, sleeker and ultimately, smaller.
But then
something shifted.
As technology
adapts to the changing consumer lifestyle, a gadget became more than a gadget. It
was a way to connect, explore, and do so much more; and a device that could live
up to this promise became a necessity. It prompted makers to shed the traditional
concept of portability that said smaller was the only way to go.
In short, there
are instances when bigger, is in
fact, better—take it from the brand who pioneered the introduction of big and
large screens for mobile technology, Samsung.
Samsung saw
the need to make things more convenient for their consumers by providing them with
a tool that will let them live large. Through big screens, Samsung was able to upgrade
the ultimate experience their consumers deserve. Tablets with bigger screens allow
users to see more and do more. It provides premium leisure experience without
the inconvenience of smaller screens or bigger and heavier gadgets. With big
screens, users get to have both quality user experience and maximum convenience
all in one gadget. And there’s no better proof of this than the introduction of
their latest tablet.
