Samsung unveiled several new Galaxy and ATIV devices at its “Premier 2013” event in London on Thursday, June 2o, but the most outstanding device in that portfolio was the ATIV Q, a new breed of tablet with two different Operating systems including the Android Jelly Bean 4.2.2 and Widows 8 can running simultaneously on the device. It is this very feature that has made Samsung ATIV Q one of a kind and no other company has introduced such a slate. With the launch of ATIV Q, Samsung has once again taken the cake away from its rivals. The new tablet features a 13.3-inch qHD+ display and boasts a resolution of 3200×1800 that is equal to 275 pixels per inch.
Besides this, ATIV Q also offers a 178-degree viewing angle along with a distinctive hinge system, which enables the users to use the device in five various forms. These five forms are kickstand mode, which brings out the keyboard below the slate, floating mode which raises the screen in the air, a stand mode that pushes the screen onto the side of the hinge and finally the straight-up tablet mode. In addition to this, a writing mode can also be formed, although it looks quite similar to the straight-up tablet form, but Samsung’s typical stylus makes it different.
Inside, ATIV Q has an Intel Core i5 processor, 128GB SSD and 4GB RAM. Interesting thing about the ATIV Q is that it was designed to cater to the same people who Microsoft earlier proffered the Surface Pro tablet. Microsoft’s Surface tablet was designed for consumers who wanted high-level laptop features in a tablet but the slate failed to lure customers in large numbers and made the software makers first hardware launch luke warm. So it will be interesting to see how customers will respond to ATIV Q that offers a nine hour long battery life to support a top of the line processor and HD display.
Besides this, ATIV Q also comes with brand new software called SideSync that enables users to share different types of data between the two OS. Moreover, to lure potential customers unlike Microsoft, Samsung has also included Android OS in the slate, so users can enjoy a diverse collection of touch-enabled applications. The representatives of Samsung have also shown the audience at Premier 2013 event how to flip between the two operating systems, but they did not reveal the exact launch date and pricing details of the new device.
