Keynote speaker, Mr. JK Shin, CEO and President of IT & Mobile Division, Samsung Electronics said in his opening speech: “The tablet is becoming an increasing popular device for viewing and consuming content, which makes the display quality a critical feature”. “With the launch of the Galaxy Tab S, Samsung is setting the industry bar far beyond anything that has previously been available in a tablet. It will provide consumers with a visual and entertainment experience that brings colors to life like never before, beautifully packaged in a sleek and ultra-portable mobile device” he added.
Turn up the Color with the Industry’s Best Mobile Display – Super AMOLED
The Galaxy Tab S embodies the next evolution in mobile display technology, delivering a wider range of rich and crisp colors that are more true-to-life. Its industry-leading WQXGA (2560×1600, 16:10) Super AMOLED display meets more than 90% of Adobe RGB color coverage – able to express varieties of colors than ever before – and has a remarkable 100,000:1 contrast ratio which provides deeper and more realistic images by making blacks darker and whites brighter.
An additional Samsung screen technology is attributed to Adaptive Display. The tablet ensures the best visual experience anywhere, anytime by intelligently adjusting gamma, saturation, and sharpness based on the application being viewed, the color temperature of the viewing environment and ambient lighting. For professionals, AMOLED Cinema and AMOLED Photo let users manually adjust the display settings for bright, dynamic results for both video and photo content.
In addition, Galaxy Tab S users can fully enjoy content clearly and easily outdoors, even in bright sunlight. The tablet’s advanced outdoor visibility technology makes content easy to view.
Since Super AMOLED technology doesn’t require a backlight, the Galaxy Tab S consumes less energy than comparative LCD displays, able to maintain portable design. Both models have a sleek 6.6mm profile and at only 465g (10.5-inch) and 294g (8.4-inch), they are light and easy to carry.
