Head-To-Head: Samsung Galaxy TabPro S Vs. Microsoft Surface Pro 4

#GalaxyTabProS #SurfacePro4 – Head-To-Head: Samsung Galaxy TabPro S Vs. Microsoft Surface Pro 4 : Samsung Electronics wants the mobile workforce to know one thing: iIs Galaxy line is about a lot more than smartphones.

Samsung has been pushing hard – including at XChange 2016 this week – the message that its Galaxy TabPro S 2-in-1 is a good fit for on-the-go workers. Of course, it's Microsoft's Surface Pro line that proved the 2-in-1 convertible tablet concept could catch on with workers.

But Samsung's Galaxy TabPro S is "the first 2-in-1 that could truly compete against the Microsoft Surface" line, said Tim Wagner, global president for commercial mobility services at DMI, a Bethesda, Md.-based solution provider. "By doing so, Samsung should be able to grab groundswell that Microsoft has created."

The TabPro S is "the right size and has all of the right equipment under the hood," along with boasting a number of key differences from the Surface Pro 4, said Wagner, a former Samsung executive whose current firm is a partner of both Samsung and Microsoft.

Following is the CRN Test Center's comparison of how Samsung's Galaxy TabPro S and Microsoft's Surface Pro 4 compare on specs and price.

Thickness And Weight

One area where Samsung is hoping to make the Galaxy TabPro S stand out from the Surface Pro 4 is on portability. The TabPro S is 27 percent thinner than the Surface Pro 4, at 0.24 of an inch thick versus 0.33 of an inch thick for Microsoft's tablet.

The TabPro S is also a bit lighter at 1.53 pounds, compared to 1.73 pounds for the Surface Pro 4. (Measurements are for the tablet only and don't include the keyboard.)

Samsung is building a revolutionary ROLL-UP smartphone

GETTY • US PATENT OFFICE Example of a flexible display, LEFT, and the illustrations filed with the Samsung patent, RIGHT Samsung has been awarded a US patent for a brand-new foldable, rollable display to use across its smartphone and tablet ranges. The South Korean technology firm recently used its flexible display technology in the award-winning Galaxy S6 Edge, which has a dual curved QHD screen. However this latest patent, which was published by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, shows the company has bolder ambitions for its curved displays. The illustrations filed with the approved patent reveal a cylindrical hub, which houses the rolled display – which unfurls like a pair of window blinds.

The Samsung Galaxy Note7 (S820) Review

This year has been difficult for smartphones, which is a bit of a paradox when you consider just how much better things have gotten compared to last year. With Snapdragon 820, 650, 652, and 625 we've finally moved past the shadow of the Snapdragon 810, 808, and 617/615. While there were Android devices that shipped with the Exynos 7420, they were often paired with a modem that was not necessarily the most power efficient. Despite all of this, there seems to be a general disappointment with smartphones. People are increasingly finding it hard to justify phones like the HTC 10 or Galaxy S7 with competition from OnePlus, Xiaomi, and even Apple with their iPhone SE. In this context the Galaxy Note7 brings much of the flavor of the Galaxy S7 edge, but blends it with the S-Pen of the Note line and a few new features like the iris scanner. If you were paying attention to the industry with the launch of the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy Note5, it's very much more of the same rather than the m

Why do Android fanboys hate admitting that Samsung copied Apple?

It's impossible to cover the mobile market without diving into the good ol' "iOS vs. Android" debate from time to time. These are the two biggest mobile platforms on the planet, so they're constantly being compared. Likewise, Samsung and Apple are the world's top two smartphone vendors, so their phones are constantly pitted against each other as well. Of course, there's another reason Apple and Samsung are often mentioned in the same breath: after entering the market, Samsung quickly grew to become the top mobile device maker on the planet thanks in large part to Apple. First, Samsung did everything it possibly could to copy Apple's iPhone and iPad. Then, it spent billions upon billions of dollars belittling Apple products in TV, online, and print advertising. Samsung spent years positioning its own devices as the cool alternative to Apple's iPhone, and its efforts paid off big time. Even now, Samsung continues to copy Apple all the time acro
