It seems that we’ve looked at all the key parameters of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy View. It will launch a new family of devices that will be used … well, for whom? Is Android 18-inch Full HD screen and a very small battery is a good combination?
I recently tested the Samsung Galaxy Tab Tablet S2, which is pretty radically distanced himself from last year, the first version Taba S. changes lie in finishing materials and screens that have different proportions, the other diagonals and – above all – a newer and better technology to display colors. In fact, there were so many changes that have suggested in the comments, that Samsung could easily introduce a new line of tablets instead of continue naming of Table S series.
The new line of tablets coming the other way. The idea for the Samsung Galaxy View is a very unusual
The upcoming device called the Samsung Galaxy View. Samsung first showed off the tablet at IFA, at the end of the conference Gear watch S2. But it was just a snapshot, a kind of teaser, which many people probably do not even noticed. Samsung showed only a block and a device name, not saying anything more. The entire ad lasted just a few seconds.
Today, we know more Galaxy View. Evan Blass (evleaks) published the specifications of the tablet derived from a benchmark GFXBench. Of course this is only a leak, while those tracking Evan Blass certainly know that his leaks almost always come true.
Android 18 inches
The Samsung Galaxy View is a tablet running under Lollipop Android 5.1.1. What is the major surprise, the screen of the device. It has a diagonal of 18.5 inches and a resolution of 1920 × 1080 pixels (16: 9). It is a combination hitherto unheard of in the world of Android. Surprising both large work surface and small (as in the modern tablet) resolution. Pixel density of 122 ppi would cost only. That’s about three times less than in the tablet Samsung and almost 5 times less than the top smartphones such as the Galaxy S6.
By GFXBench under the hood of Galaxy View can find ośmiordzeniowy Exynos processor 7 (quad-core Cortex A53 and Cortex A57 four) and 1.8 GB of RAM. Built-in memory is 25 GB. The layout is the ARM Mali-T720.
View Galaxy tablet promises to be a very stationary. Not only because of the screen.
Evan Blass is also confident that the new tablet will be equipped with a battery capacity of 5700 mAh …. No, there is no shortage of one zero. This year, extremely thin S2 Galaxy Tab 9.7 boasts bigger battery, with a capacity of 5870 mAh. On the other hand, last year’s Galaxy S Tab 10.5 had a battery with a capacity of up to 7900 mAh!
This small battery capacity coupled with a huge screen diagonal likely to result in very short battery life. Sure, the low resolution of the screen should be a little longer time work, but I’m afraid that the tablet will not last even half a day away from the wall.

While studying carefully a table with the specification can be also noted that the Galaxy View can not be equipped with an accelerometer or gyroscope. It’s another sign that Samsung does not want us took the Galaxy View beyond the desk. Promises to be a very stationary equipment.
Who useful for such a device?
At first I thought that the Galaxy View will be used graphic designers who need to work large areas of the screen. A lot of it suggests – Apple demonstrated iPad Pro, so Galaxy View could be a spectacular response to Samsung. In addition, Samsung also has its feather, and with the release of the Galaxy View could present a new version. Add to that the phenomenal quality of the new displays Samsung whole has a lot of sense. It’s just that the idea of killing the resolution. The density of pixels at 122 dpi is really not enough for the professional graphic artists.
Then maybe it will be office equipment, conference? The tablet will be equipped with a rear camera, but with front cam will be Full HD, so just in time for video calls. In such applications Full HD resolution would not bother anyone. Only that 18 inches does not sound particularly impressive, especially in the conference room.
The head came to me a pretty crazy idea
Samsung recently unveiled a service GameFly, or the “Netflix for games “. For approx. 35 zł / month. user gets access to a wide and constantly drop-down base games. Games are physically installed on the servers, and so to play not need a computer or console. The service has been running on some Samsung TVs equipped with Tizen system. Currently, contains quite a lot of production AAA, including Sleeping Dogs, Dirt 3 and Batman: Arkham Origins.
Now GameFly can operate on a simple system Tizen built-in TV, I see no obstacles to not implement this technology to Android. Or maybe it is a TV series and movies streamed? The device name (View) could indicate this. Anyway, playing and watching materials to 18 inches sounds like a big compromise.
Indeed, it’s hard for me to find meaningful parameters applicable to the Galaxy View.
All applications they sound a little force. The equipment looks to connect the tablet with a TV, and come out of this probably something like a computer all-in-one under the control of Android.
I’m very curious as Samsung intends to advertise your device. We’ll see about that in November, because that’s when the Galaxy View will go on sale.
