Samsung Premiere 2014: AMOLED tablets are coming - what to expect?

2014-06-11
as if there weren't enough Samsung tablets in the world looks like we got a few more on the way hey what is going on guys lon here from android authority and samsung's premiere event is on jun 12 in new york city where they will be unveiling some brand new tablets and if you haven't been following any of the leaks or rumors you're probably wondering what it is about these tabs that make them worth talking about make them worth even mentioning because it seems like samsung is releasing tablets every few months but the reason why these tablets are creating a lot of buzz is because one they're featuring some very high-end specs and two is the display they're going to actually be featuring a Super AMOLED display which is something we haven't seen a lot in Samsung tablets the last time we saw in amla display on a samsung tablet was the Galaxy Tab 7.7 which came out a few years ago and that was really more of an experiment more of a proof of concept and we haven't seen another amla tablet from samsung since then and AMOLED technology is one of the reasons why Samsung is pretty well known they use AMOLED displays and pretty much all of their smartphones with the exception of a few but we haven't really seen that technology translate over to tablets but before we talk about why we haven't necessarily seen samsung's AMOLED technology used in their tablets let's talk about some of the rumored specs that we're expecting to see with these brand new tablets so inside we're expecting to see an Exynos octa core processor and there's also been some rumblings about a Snapdragon 801 ship so there might be a possibility of seeing two different variants of these tablets which is something we've seen Samsung do before on their phones and then around back we're expecting to see an 8 megapixel camera a 2 megapixel camera on the front and then all of your usual stuff like Wi-Fi Bluetooth 4.0 LTE connectivity and android 4.4 kitkat running the show and then we've also heard some rumors about a fingerprint sensor being built into that home button just like the galaxy s5 so that's going to be interesting to see but the most interest spec of them all is the display besides being super amoled is also going to be super high-resolution coming in at 2560 by 1600 now none of these specs are a hundred percent confirmed as they're completely just rumors at this point as Samsung has been completely quiet on the entire subject but they did release a teaser with a tagline tab into color which we assume is a reference to the Super AMOLED display and also the possibility of having these tablets in a variety of different colors instead of just your standard black and white but one thing that is confirmed though from some of the leaked images that we've seen is the design and it seems to be featuring the same design as the Samsung Galaxy s5 with the perforated back but other than that it looks pretty much the same as any other Samsung tablet as far as anything else we're going to be seeing at this particular event I don't think we're going to be getting in s 5 prime so I wouldn't get your hopes up for that I think that's pretty much just a unicorn phone at this point we might see some new accessories for these tablets maybe an s5 mini something along those lines but I wouldn't expect to see anything major in terms of a flagship smartphone but let's jump back and talk about the AMOLED display so like I mentioned earlier the Galaxy Tab 7.7 was the very first tablet from samsung to feature an AMOLED display but we haven't seen one since then and the biggest question to that is what's taking them so long and the answer that question is the technology just simply wasn't ready let's take a look back at the original google nexus one which wasn't a samsung phone it was actually an HTC made phone but it did feature in AMOLED display it was one of the very first smartphones with any sort of notoriety to feature in AMOLED display and if you remember on the next one the display wasn't all that great like colors didn't look good viewing angles were terrible and it was also extremely reflective so outdoor visibility wasn't good and ever since then Samsung has improved on the oled display dramatically and for the last several years manufacturers have preferred using lcds over OLED displays because of all the disadvantages that OLED displays brought lcds were just a lot brighter you got much more accurate colors and better viewing angles and oled technology was lacking all of this but it has improved over the last several years and we've seen that come to fruition especially on the galaxy s5 the galaxy s5 has great colors great viewing angles gets extremely bright and it has great outdoor visibility as well so we've seen it improved so much over the last several years and Samsung feels like they're finally ready to be used on a tablet and just taking a look back at something like the nexus one to the galaxy s5 now the OLED display has improved drastically over the years and even other OEMs are starting to adopt it like Motorola for example so I'm pretty excited to actually see these AMOLED displays used on a tablet but let me know what you guys think are you guys excited about these tablets I'm gonna stop talking now are you guys excited about these tablets are you looking forward to seeing an AMOLED tablet or
