We were luck enough to be given a new Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 to test and review last week and after numerous days playing around with it, I have to say that I am fairly impressed. Having long been an avid user of the iPad, I am fairly faithful to the Apple brand, but I was surprised how easy the Samsung alternative was to become acquainted with. The tablet has a very slim design, which depending on which way you look at it could be a good or a bad thing, but I prefer to travel light so I definitely see this as a bonus. It is very light too and only weighs 335g, so you could easily pop it into your handbag and not have anything to worry about.

The screen display also looks great and I would say that it definitely stands up to the iPad. The colours are bright and vivid and with a resolution of 1280 by 800 pixels, the clarity is good enough to make your videos a joy to watch.

In general the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 is a well designed tablet and with two cameras, a great quality screen, expandable memory and a fast CPU. It is certainly a rival to my favorite, the iPad.
