Please don't tell me that you believe Samsung implemented this just one week after Apple announced it?They obviously must have been working on it for months. It's actually possible that Apple heard of this feature and decided to implement their own so they can compete on that feature.
When they also implement a finger print scanner months after Apple. One time might be coincident, twice its copying, um...inspired.
100%. !!!!!!!!!! OLED displays are great. For one year. Then they're awful. No more OLED for me unless there's some kind of longevity breakthrough.
I couldn't care less about the other stuff, but this is the feature that Apple needs to implement for the iPad.
Where have I heard that before?
At WWDC. But you just heard it there but it is already here. Big difference.
OMG! So much childs on this forum. Fanboysm is the most imature behaviour of this world. Looks like there are literaly zero adults on this forum. Can you speak about competition without being so full of ****? Every company copies each other. I'm tired of reading fanboys saying that apple IPS LED display is supperior to AMOLED technology, it's like comparing a 1997 Corolla to a Lamborghini Aventador... let's be at least realistic, apple has awesome products, I love the iPad overall build quality and it's unbeatable so far, but the competitors also have their trophies.

Plasma burn-in issue was solved long time ago. It was the el-cheapo LCD's that people flocked to, causing Plasma's doom.
It was posted to get people talking and spending time on this site. It worked. Here you are...
Considering no date for release, they can be coding furiously until its for sale. And if that particular feature is not working yet, simply set back the sale date. Don't underestimate Samsung for being "Inspired" by Apple and their ability for a quick turn around after WWDC.
True, minus the over exaggerated analogy... The funny thing is most people forget that in 2011 when it was released the HP touchpad could wirelessly connect to a HP pre phone and make and receive phone calls and text messages. Apple didn't invent that.. Competition is good and companies take ideas from each other all the time. The bottom line for me though is that Apple makes the best products and has the best overall ecosystem in my opinion and I like the way my Apple gadgets work.
I've been expecting a massive security breach on android for years, especially with older 2.x devices, but it hadn't happened ? I've seen as many security issues with iOS as with Android. I don't think security is a good argument for iOS.
It is interesting to read the threads on the Samsung products here with the Apple crowd and vice versa. I can say that I am completely neutral. I have a Android phone and a iPad 4. The rest of the family all have iPhones. I am very happy with my phone. And also with my ipad. When it comes down to it, the majority of the time I spend on my ipad are browsing the internet, emails and then some app usage. On the phone it's mostly texting, pictures, a little emailing, a little browsing and some apps. Both platforms do this sufficiently for me. I do find the fact that the new Samsung tablets link up with the phones really neat. Apparently it has been mentioned that iOS 8 can do this too. But since I have an Android phone, I may for the first time switch over to a Samsung tablet and see how I like it. About the colors, my tablets and phones are always in cases, I never see their color or feel their texture. Couldn't care less about that.
You have to go digging to even find Apple products on their site. Same thing in the store. You would think its Best Samsung Buy
Yes, because of all of the enormous security breaches lately in ios affecting millions of people....
...what are you talking about? If anyone needs to be worried about security it's google with android.
Where have I heard that before?
Really...all of you...really? What the hell do you think a software development cycle is like?
Yeah, android apps for tablets are still lacking not as good as iPads. Google came close on phones but they have ways to go for tablets.
But there really haven't been any massive exploits with either OS - certainly not like Windows.
Where have I heard that before?
At WWDC. The difference is that its on a tablet now, not a device in 3-5 months time, so technically samsung is first with it.
