Clash of the Titans

      We're already in the 21st century and the technology is getting greater and even bigger, and during this period, two giants arise to compete against each other. Producing outstanding products and innovating technology for several decades, Apple Inc. presents the iPad2 and Samsung proudly sets their Galaxy Tab in the battlefield. But wait, who will win to prove which one is better?
       In fact, both have almost the same functions and features --- they're just branded and innovated by two different companies. Both have the same purpose as being a mini hand-held computer that can run almost the same applications, they have nearly similar hardware components such as touch screens and physical buttons all in one tablet. Also, these two awesome devices can connect to the internet through their built-in Wi-Fi and 3G. And what's epic is that both are hack-able through a process called jailbreaking or rooting if you want so advanced techie features to make your device outstanding to others! But the two devices are not really that similar because they also have some differences and uniqueness from each other such as their appearance because in iPad2, the physical buttons are just for power, home, and volume, the size is a lot bigger compared to Galaxy Tab and the weight is a little bit heavier while the Galaxy Tab's are the same but added some 3 more buttons and these buttons are functioning as sensors including the home button. It is smaller and lighter than the iPad2. Their processing speed also differs as well as their exclusive features from their companies. If you may notice, the iPad2 is dramatically faster than the Galaxy Tab but the feature that the Galaxy Tab beats its competitor is that it is also functioning as a phone! And lastly, the price --- iPad2 costs around P30-40k while Galaxy Tab costs only around P15-18k. So in conclusion, both are better in different ways and in their own uniqueness.
