Turn Up the Colour with the Samsung GALAXY Tab S<\/h2>\n

Stunning GALAXY Tab S delivers brilliant display that is richer, lighter and more immersive<\/em><\/p>\n

SINGAPORE \u2013 8 July 2014 \u2013 Samsung Electronics Singapore <\/strong>today announced the GALAXY Tab S, Samsung\u2019s thinnest and lightest tablet to date. This Super AMOLED tablet combines Samsung\u2019s most advanced tablet display technology with a full range of premium content for an unrivalled entertainment experience. The GALAXY Tab S is also powered with enhanced productivity features for effortless multitasking, all elegantly housed in a highly stylish, yet practical design.<\/p>\n

\u201cIncreasingly, we see our consumers using the tablet for entertainment such as playing games and watching videos. This makes having a superior display an essential quality for tablets to have. As such, we launched the GALAXY Tab S \u2013 to offer our consumers the ultimate visual entertainment in a modern and minimalist package,\u201d said Eugene Goh, Vice President, IT & Mobile, Samsung Electronics Singapore.<\/p>\n

Turn up the Colour with the Industry\u2019s Best Mobile Display \u2013 Super AMOLED<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

The GALAXY Tab S embodies the next evolution in mobile display technology, delivering a wider range of rich and crisp colours. Its industry-leading\u00a0WQXGA (2560×1600, 16:10) Super AMOLED display<\/strong>\u00a0delivers more than 90% of Adobe\u00ae<\/sup> RGB (Red Green Blue) colour coverage \u2013 expressing more colours than ever before \u2013 and has a remarkable 100,000:1 contrast ratio which provides deeper and more realistic images.<\/p>\n

The GALAXY Tab S also features additional Samsung screen technologies that go beyond the hardware specifications. The tablet\u2019s\u00a0Adaptive Display<\/strong>\u00a0ensures the best visual experience anywhere, anytime by intelligently adjusting gamma, saturation, and sharpness based on the application being viewed, the colour temperature of the viewing environment and ambient lighting. Pre-set professional modes \u2013 AMOLED Cinema and AMOLED Photo<\/em>\u00a0\u2013 also let users manually adjust the display settings for bright, dynamic results for both video and photo content.<\/p>\n

In addition, GALAXY Tab S users can fully enjoy content clearly and easily outdoors, even under bright sunlight. The tablet\u2019s advanced outdoor visibility technology makes on-screen content look bright, natural, and easy to view.<\/p>\n

Since Super AMOLED technology does not require a backlight, the GALAXY Tab S consumes less energy than comparative LCD displays while maintaining a very portable design. Both models have a sleek 6.6mm profile and weigh only 294g (8.4\u201d) and 465g (10.5\u201d)^<\/sup>, making them light and easy to carry. You can now conserve your tablet battery life by activating the Ultra Power Saving Mode1<\/sup> <\/b>feature available on GALAXY Tab S which saves power significantly by changing the screen to black-and-white, and operating several essential apps, e.g. web surfing, messaging via LINE, while turning off all the non-essential services on your tablet.<\/p>\n

^<\/sup><\/i> Device weights are measured with Wi-Fi\u00ae<\/sup> only version of GALAXY Tab S (8.4\u201d) and (10.5\u201d)<\/i><\/i><\/p>\n
