TABLET – Ultra News

Galaxy Tab S5e with cover keyboard Samsung India introduced two new 10-inch plus tablets, with the cheaper one priced at Rs 15k and the costlier one, which comes with an AMOLED display, at Rs 35,999. The premium model, called Galaxy Tab S5e, is probably the only tablet in India with an AMOLED display. It is also slim, at 5.5 mm, and weighs only 400 gm. The cheaper model, Galaxy Tab A 10.1, weighs 470 gm, but is considerably thicker at 7.5 mm. Galaxy Tab S5e also comes with 4 GB of RAM paired with Snapdragon 670, while the Galaxy Tab A 10.1 ships with Exynos 7904 with 2GB of RAM. The Snapdragon 670 chipset found on Galaxy Tab S5e is considerably more powerful than the Exynos 7904. The Snapdragon set up should score about 5,200 points on Geekbench, while the Exynos 7904, also found on Galaxy M20, scores about 4,100. The difference is even more marked in single-core process, where the Exynos model scores about 1,350, and the Snapdragon 670 scores about 1,900. The most remarkable aspect of the Galaxy Tab S5e has to be its display as it is one of the rare tablets that come with an AMOLED screen. Due to its substantially higher cost of production, AMOLED displays have largely been confined to phones. OLED TVs, for example, cost about three to six times more than their LCD counterparts. In Samsung's own words: "Galaxy Tab S5e’s 10.5” Super AMOLED display comes with a 16:10 screen ratio, allowing users to enjoy an immersive viewing experience.

"Catering to the multitasking needs of millennials, Galaxy Tab S5e allows the user to easily switch between DeX mode and Android mode by connecting the tablet to its dedicated POGO Keyboard (sold separately). Also, the new and improved DeX makes multi-tasking a breeze due to its new UI and optimization of more applications.

The book cover keyboard can be purchased for Rs 3,500 for those buying before July 21.

Galaxy Tab S5e’s Wi-Fi variant will also be available on Amazon.in, while the Wi-Fi +LTE variant will also be available on Flipkart.
