Samsung Electronics to Launch 12.2 Inch Smartpad Before Apple

According to the industry on Sunday, Samsung Electronics is planning to launch 12.2 inch smartpad soon and to start procuring LCD panels from Samsung Display and Sharp from next month, if early.

Samsung Display and Sharp are going to supply monthly volume of 2 to 2.5 million 12.2 inch panels to Samsung Electronics. Samsung Electronics is known to have set the goal of selling more than 12 million 12.2 inch smartpads per quarter.

The resolution of panel supplied by the two display makers are known to be WQXGA class with 2,560x1,600 pixels, clearer than the full HD displays. Especially, Sharp is going to produce those panels using IGZO, Indum-Gallium Zinc Oxide, panel.

The 12.2 inch smartpad is expected to come with the stylus pen (S-Pen) like its predecessor, Galaxy Note 10.1. The S-Pen is to add greater flexibility in the use of smartpad, not only for the use of UI, but also for the hand-written memo apps.

The development of 12 inch smartpads had been started from the mid last year, but as the 7-inch smartpads gained more popularity, the development had been sidelined for a while. However, the development of larger-sized smartpad was re-started as the smartpads kept on encroaching the notebook PC market.

Samsung seems to have aimed both the notebook PC and smartpad markets with the 12.2 inch smartpad. Since the 12.2 inch smartpads are relatively cheaper than the notebooks and may come with the S-Pen, they can be a very powerful solution for digital textbooks. The digital textbook market has a significant growth potential. According to IDC, a market research firm, the size of U.S. market for educational terminals has grown by 15.3%, YOY. The digital textbook only is a good enough reason for the market to expect the 12 inch smartpads will create a new demand despite the recent boom of smaller-sized smartpads.

Apple also is known to have started its preparation for the introduction of 12 inch iPad, tentatively named as ‘Maxi,’ aiming to launch it next year. If the current market projections materialize, Samsung will launch the 12 inch product before Apple and take on the market first.

The new 16.00–megapixel Live MOS Sensor achieves high-resolution, high sensitivity image recording. The Venus Engine is also newly developed for DMC-GF6 to attain high-performance signal processing and the advanced noise reduction system minimizes noise and even achieves shooting at max. ISO 25600(Extended) high sensitivity taking best advantage of the new sensor.

The DMC-GF6 boasts high-speed, high precision Light Speed AF system including practical full-time AF and tracking AF is available in video recording. Newly integrated Low Light AF enables quick, accurate focusing on the target subject even in low-lit situations. Getting ready to shoot in only 0.5 sec after start-up, the DMC-GF6 never misses fleeting shooting opportunities.

The DMC-GF6 is not just an interchangeable lens camera but a creative magic box full of wide-ranging attractive features including the new Self Shot, Creative Panorama and Stop Motion Animation in addition to the popular Creative Control mode with a total of 19 fascinating filter effects. The Stop Motion Animation allows producing unique stop motion video and the Clear Retouch function enables to erase unwanted part of a picture after shooting – both operations completes with stunning ease in camera.

It is also possible to use a smartphone/tablet as a multi-capable remote shutter with a monitor. With the Instant Transfer function, photos are automatically sent to the smartphone/tablet right after shooting. On the other hand, both photo and video can be archived to the registered digital equipment such as PC automatically via the wireless access point (router) at home.

The DMC-GF6 records 1920 x 1080 at 60i (NTSC) / 50i (PAL) full-HD video in AVCHD with high quality stereo sound. The P/A/S/M mode in video recording is also available for more expressive creation of motion picture footage.

Despite its sleek, compact profile, the DMC-GF6 is a practically reliable digital camera with a built-in flash(GN6.3 ISO160・m / GN5.0 ISO100・m) and 3.0-inch large approx.180°tiltable monitor. Dressed in stylish colors - black, white, brown and red, the DMC-GF6 brings new opportunities to enjoy shooting higher quality image with cutting-edge digital technologies.

By extending the control level of noise, controllable area of noise is expanded by approx.64x in size. This makes it possible to remove large block of noise which was formally hard to detect and helps produce clear, smooth image especially for the nighttime scenery. In addition, the Multi-process NR (Noise Reduction) works in two separate steps allowing even finer control over noise level. The texture of noise itself, regardless of the noise size, is improved with this deliberate control, which is resulting in the reproduction of smooth human skin even in high sensitivity recording.

Furthermore, the optimum design of newly adopted Detail Reproduction Filter Process enhances the limit resolution by max. 3% and the contrast of middle to high range by max. 5%. Plus, the advanced Intelligent D-range Control offers wider dynamic range while maintaining the smooth gradation thanks to the higher-precision signal processing performed by the redesigned signal processing circuit. Suppressing both blocked shadows and blown highlights, every part of an image – from dark to bright – is faithfully reproduced.

Photo Review haste "XPERIA Tablet Z SO-03E" DoCoMo version released today

Thin, light-fast!
Also once were reviewed before the launch but, try to review again the tablet "XPERIA Tablet Z SO-03E" of SONY that NTT docomo has started selling today.
I'll try to open the box. It is usual lineup. Insulation that is also.
While there is no accessories such as charger, with a desktop holder.
It is pretty good to me this is reminiscent of formal table, the BRAVIA.
Seen from the front sounds good. One-Seg capable version so unlike Wi-Fi, there is a one-segment antenna. I also futile because only to look at the big screen resolution and Seg, dailymotion sample.
Well understood when viewed from the side, this thinness is really amazing.
Back. Matte white or black material as well. There is a sense of quality, unlike glass.
Where I compare, SO-03E, SO-02E VAIO S13P.
Viewed from the side who still have the dreadfulness of TabZ wonder how infectious? Thinness of the par Sumaho.
Release lock screen by flicking upward.
Preinstalled app like this. And can uninstall it is an app that has been marked × in the upper right corner.
Thin and light, beautifully display. Is high basic performance you want to find the tablet. High-speed processing and high-speed communication communication LTE, quad-core and by Snapdragon S4 Pro. SONY tablet of the whole body with triple threat thin, light, and fast. Why do you even come single.
