Samsung Galaxy Tab torn down to bits by iFixit

The Samsung Galaxy Tab is out, and AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon will be carrying the device by the time Christmas rolls around. It’s the Android answer to the Apple iPad – though whether it’s a good one is still up for debate – and the good folks at iFixit got their hands on one and tore it down to bits!

Here are some details that we can gather from the tear down:

  • 1 GHz ARM Cortex-A8 Hummingbird Multimedia Applications Processor based on the ARMv7 architecture.
  • 16 or 32 GB internal storage capacity + microSD external expandable storage.
  • 512 MB total DDR RAM
  • 3.2 MP rear facing camera and 1.3 MP front facing camera.
  • Android 2.2 (Froyo) + Samsung TouchWiz
  • Measuring 190.1 x 120.6 x 12.0 mm, the Galaxy Tab is dimensionally smaller than its competitor. The iPad measures in at 242.8 x 189.7 x 13.4 mm.
  • Volumetrically, the Galaxy Tab measures 275.1 cm3, whereas the iPad measures 617.2 cm3.

Those are just a few details on the Samsung Galaxy Tab, but for the full breakdown/teardown and images to go along with it for you DIYers, visit iFixit at the link below.
