We continue to review the main rivals that the ZenPad 10 Between the entry-level and mid-range 10-inch tablets and one of the hardest still, more than a year after its launch, the Galaxy Tab 4 10.1. It is true that Samsung has a newer model, the A Galaxy Tab, but it must be borne in mind that this is a tablet in which the main novelties actually have to do much more with the design (materials, format) than with the Technical specifications And if you look at the physical aspect, the new tablet of Asus It has much more to do with last year's than with the new one, so it seems preferable to give it the leading role in this comparison. Which of the two, then, can interest you more? The ZenPad 10 or the Galaxy Tab 4 10.1? We hope we can help you decide with this comparative.
Integrated
As we have just anticipated, the truth is that in the design section we find two quite similar tablets, although some small differences can be seen, such as the fact that the Asus has more regular frames and that of Samsung It has a physical button on the front. What distinguishes them most, in any case, is that the ZenPad 10Like the rest of the range, it has interchangeable covers that allow us to equip it with some extras, such as an additional battery or a more powerful audio system.
Dimensions
The two tablets have a screen of the same size and a fairly similar frame too, so the difference between the two is minimal (25,16x17,2 inch against 24,34x17,64 inch), as is the case with the thickness, quite reduced in both, especially if we think that they are large mid-range tablets (7,9 mm against 8 mm). The only section in which there is perhaps a clearer advantage in favor of the tablet of Samsung is the weight, but it is not too significant (510 grams against 487 grams).
Screen
As we have already mentioned, the screen size on both tablets is exactly the same (10.1 inches) and so is the format (16:9), the resolution (1280 x 800) and therefore the pixel density (PPI 149). Nothing that tips the balance from one side or the other in this section.
Performance
Which of the two is the winner in the performance section will depend on which of the two versions of the ZenPad 10 occupy us, since one of them will mount a processor Intel Atom Z3560 a 1,8 GHz and will have 2 GB of RAM, and the other an Intel Atom X3 processor to 1,2 GHz accompanied 1 GB RAM. The Galaxy Tab 4 10.1, meanwhile, ride a Snapdragon 400 quad core to 1,2 GHz and has 1.5 GB of RAM.
Storage capacity
The advantage would be here in principle for the ZenPad 10 It seems that it will be launched with up to 32 GB of storage capacity, but even if we opt for a model with less internal memory, at least we can count on both of them giving us the option of expanding it externally through a card. micro-SD.
Cameras
We always insist that the cameras in the tablets must be valued in their proper measure but for those who have special importance, it should be mentioned that also in this section we must make distinctions between the two versions of the tablet. Asus, since one of them will have a main chamber of 5 MP and a front of 2 MP, while in the other they will be 2 MP y 0,3 MP, respectively. On the tablet of Samsung the cameras are halfway to the others: a main one of 3,15 MP and another front of 1,3 MP.
Autonomy
As you already know, Asus You have not provided us with the battery capacity data for this tablet at the moment, nor do we, of course, have independent autonomy analysis data yet, so we cannot make a comparison between the two in this section, but only We can provide you with the data corresponding to the Galaxy Tab 4 10.1: 6800 mAh.
Price
We will have to wait to see how much it sells for Asus su ZenPad 10, and if it moves in the same range as the Memo Pad 10 (which can already be found for less than 150 euros), it could have a clear advantage, even if the Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 It has dropped a lot in price already and can be bought at some dealers for just over $200. Until there is an official announcement from the Taiwanese, in any case, they are just speculation.
