Samsung has gone completely mad!

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7- inch Cons:

* Look at the performance
Yesteryear's Nexus 7 beats it by a fair margin in all benchmarks :facepalm:

* Tablets with NVIDIA Tegra 3, Samsung Exynos 4, and Rockchip RK3188 chips outperform it in most tests.
*liliputing.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/pxa-bench.jpg
:facepalm:

*Moreover (antique) dual core Mali 400 MP GPU is better than slower GC1000 GPU

-Source :facepalm:

* Screen resolution :facepalm:

* No Multi-window feature :facepalm:

* No NFC support :facepalm:




Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8-inch Cons:

* Basically the SOC on Galaxy SII :facepalm: clocked @ 1.5Ghz

* No NFC support :facepalm:

* Screen resolution :facepalm:

* Price :facepalm:

Don't comment on cheap budget based Tablets.
Tablets with Quad Core CPU ,Good GPU and 10.1" or 11.6" screens are doing great...though much behind than Laptops and will never Touch the performance of Desktops.

Review from Engadget
PROS
Lightweight, easy to hold
Built-in IR blaster useful for TV viewing
CONS
Poor display for the price
Cheap construction, unappealing design
Uneven performance
Big drop in battery life from the previous-gen model
