Why didn’t Asus Malaysia learn from Apple on how to launch its Google flagship tablet? It is the first tablet in the whole world running Android 4.1,Jelly Bean and receiving rave reviews from many tech critics. And I wonder will Asus Malaysia do any special promotion for early buyers of Nexus 7.

The first device in the world running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.

Finally, the long awaited Google tablet is coming to Malaysia soon. Google Nexus 7 is reputed to be the one of the best Android tablets and the price is very competitive. US$199. Many Android tablets failed to impressed a lot of people but this tablet has been receiving great reviews from EngadgetMashable and Gizmodo.

This Nexus 7 gives a stiff competition to Amazon Kindle Fire. This is the only one Google flagship device that Google has done it right so far. Everything from its hardware to its software and price is right except its packaging. Its packaging is too tight that many reviewers are having a lot of problem opening it. I hope that Google will improve its packaging in the future. Continue reading

[RUMOUR] Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 Price In Malaysia is RM2,299!!!

Yup. That’s a very expensive tablet from Samsung. Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1″ is only RM1,899 with bigger screen. Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0″ Plus and Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9″ are just RM1,699. That’s a ripoff. What are you doing, Sammy?

Well, there’s a justification for such a high price. Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7″ is the only Galaxy Tab that has Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen. But who are willing to pay a premium of RM400-RM600 just for a better display? You can get Asus Transformer Prime + dock and also RM100 change.

Here are the specs of Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7″: Continue reading
