4G connectivity
Excellent size and weight
Good build quality
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 packs the full Android Honeycomb tablet experience (soon upgradeable to Android 4.0)
Along with Samsung's useful customizations
Into a compact body
This is a hot little tablet which once it has Android 4.0 and Chrome will sizzle because the 4G LTE capability is impressive if you can get access to a 4G network.
Great lightweight design
4G network ready
Good LCD display
OGG
DivX and Xvid playback
Great lightweight design. 4G network ready. Good LCD display. OGG
The editors didn't like
4G coverage currently limited
Sluggish performance
Too expensive
The lack of ports on the tablet will be a problem for some and the plastic back leaves the Tab 8.9 feeling less solid than the iPad 2
The price!
No TVout
No expandable memory
4G hampered by slow browser
Slow battery charging
No TV-out. No expandable memory. 4G hampered by slow browser. Slow battery charging

Abstract: It's no secret that tablet makers are having a hard time competing with Apple in this still nascent market. In fact, the iPad is selling so well that it surpassed the number of PCs shipped by any individual PC manufacturer over the last quarter of 2011 --...
Abstract: I've had the Galaxy Tab 8.9 by Samsung for about a full week now which means I've had some time to gather my thoughts and decide how I truly feel about the device.With all honesty this tablet is amazing it does very well with anything you throw at it from...
Abstract: Today I unbox and take my first look in the Galaxy Tab 8.9 by Samsung. This tablet packs a nice punch with it's specs sporting a 1GHz dual-core Tegra 2 NVIDIA processor, 1GB of RAM, and a beautiful 8.9 inch display, which measures at 1280×800 pixels to pr...
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 is a great addition to the Galaxy Tab lineup. The hardware packs an elegant and sleek design combined with great performance, in a thinner and lighter chassis than the Apple tablet. the smaller size (8.9 inch) can be great for r...
Bright clear screen, Good bundled apps, Good battery life, Light and thin, Fast processor,
Sluggish performance, Kinda expensive
Most movies played bright and clear, with good contrast and deep, rich tones.Audio playback was predictably bland for music and movies – the speakers are too small and situated below the screen where music fills an empty void instead of emanating towa...
Maintains its overall size, Very lightweight, 4G LTE connectivity
Sluggish performance, Still expensive
Looking at AT&T’s selection of 4G LTE tablets, it’s obviously limited right now with only the Samsung GALAXY Tab 8.9 LTE and the HTC Jetstream. As much as we feel that its $479.99 on-contract ($629.99 outright) is still on the pricey side, since you’l...
Samsung appears to be trying for every single size device here in the smart mobile world, with 10.1-inches, 8.9, 7.7, 7, 5.3, 5, 4.65, 4.52, 4.5, 4.3, and the list goes on and on. No matter what you want, Samsung has you covered in AT LEAST the displa...
No expandable storage, $50 less than the 10.1, LTE version is bundled with contract
I believe that there is such a thing as tablet fatigue and that it set in once the run up to the Motorola Xoom left everyone panting at CES last year. We don't review a lot of Android tablets simply because we find many of them derivative at best. However...
The Tab 8.9 is a slim, sexy tablet with a lot of potential, but it's held back by a slow (albeit occasionally functional) custom UI. So, why would anyone buy the Tab 8.9? Casual consumers may not be particularly miffed by the comparatively slower perfo...
