New Samsung DRAM Boasts of 12.8GB/s Transfers

Samsung’s been pretty busy with its successful Galaxy line of smartphones and tablets, along with the Nexus S, but the company this morning reminded us all that it’s not been resting on its laurels when it comes to hardware.

Samsung today revealed that it’s developed a 1GB DRAM for mobile devices that boasts a wide I/O interface and low power consumption to boot. The new mobile DRAM is capable of transmitting data at 12.8GB per second, an eightfold increase in bandwidth when compared to mobile DDR DRAM, and it’s made possible by the use of 512 pins for data input and output compared to the last-gen mobile DRAMs’ 32 pins. All this comes with a reduction in power consumption amounting to roughly 87 percent.

"Following the development of 4Gb LPDDR2 DRAM (low-power DDR2 dynamic random access memory) last year, our new mobile DRAM solution with a wide I/O interface represents a significant contribution to the advancement of high-performance mobile products," said Byungse So, senior VP of memory product planning and application engineering at Samsung Electronics.

"We will continue to aggressively expand our high-performance mobile memory product line to further propel the growth of the mobile industry," he continued.

Samsung’s next move is to provide 20nm-class 4Gb wide I/O mobile DRAM sometime in 2013.

Samsung Galaxy Tab vs Apple iPad [Refresh]

A few weeks back I was given a Samsung Galaxy Tab to review and my thoughts are below.

Obvious differences:

Form Factor: Samsung Galaxy Tab is a 7" tablet and iPad is 10". There is a big difference holding the two devices. While holding the Samsung Galaxy Tab was super comfortable, it lacked browsing real estate, and requires zooming/scrolling for a non pleasurable surfing experience.

Resolution: Viewing Applications, music videos, streaming content, even Google in a browser, was terrible on the Galaxy Tab in comparison to the Apple iPad. I can compare this to using iPhone applications on an iPad in 2X mode. It is very apparent that Android 2.2 was meant for a Smartphone, in every way.

Video Playback: Video Playback with .avi and.mkv files was excellent on the Samsung Galaxy Tab. 720P and 1080P HD content played flawlessly and was a great experience. An experience one might never have with an Apple iPad, or even an Apple iPad 2. (unless you have a jailbroken iPad and have XBMC installed in which case the .avi and .mkv also play flawlessly) There is however a major roadblock: FAT32. Theandroid internal and external file system is formatted with FAT32 partitioning. This means any files over 4GB will not copy onto the device. For TV episodes this would not be an issue, but if you plan on watching movies in HD quality, this will not allow 5GB or 8GB files. You would need to split the content in half, or if would like, you can try to copy the file over in KIES mode. Apparently when you are copying the file over, it is transcoding so this could take quite a while to copy over.

Video Conferencing: The first thing I wanted to experience was a Video Chat and since there was no facetime on the Galaxy Tab, I went for the next best thing: Skype forAndroid. Wrong. Skype for Android does not yet support video chat and only supports audio calls or chats. I found a third party application called Tango, which has great reviews, however both parties require the same software, similar to Apple's facetime. This was very disappointing since we have front and rear facing cameras. I also noticed that while I was able to take a self shot of myself using the front facing camera on the Galaxy Tab, I was unable to capture front facing video. The video capture only works out of the rear camera.

Mail: Apple recently added universal inbox support for the iPad in which case you can merge all of your mail inboxes together to make checking for new mail a more pleasant experience. I was happy to find a similar mail experience with theSamsung Galaxy Tab using the native mail client......UNTIL I was noticing all the email I was deleting would re-appear in the inbox as new mail several minutes later. After recreating my IMAP mail accounts, ensuring all settings were correct, contactingSamsung, I ended up finding my answer in a number of forums. Samsung Galaxy Tab native Mail application does not allow emails to be deleted as this appears to be a bug...The Gmail mail client works well so for anyone that doesn't use hotmail or other email accounts, they may not notice this issue, however this is huge! I was able to install a third party mail application called "K9" and this client was great. There were a lot of great features built in and the delete function worked like a charm.

Many sites require frequent content changes

 Many sites require frequent content changes and new content publishing at short notice. Content Management Systems (CMS) allow non-technical contributors to maintain and update site content without programing knowledge or special software tools.
