This morning, during a small briefing in Toronto, I had a chance to play with four new tablets from Samsung. Each is alike yet separate, a consequence of a “device democracy” policy set in place by the powers that be.
With its enormous size and manufacturing capabilities, Samsung has managed to carve out a substantial section of the horizontal mobile share very quickly, rising from a squeak in the mid-2000′s to the best-selling smartphone manufacturer today. It has been able to do that by catering not just to one, or even a handful, of demographics, but to every possible smartphone or tablet customer out there. What started from a single Galaxy Tab in 2010 has grown to a suite of names, screen sizes and capabilities, ranging from a $169 7-inch tab at the bottom to a gargantuan $769 12.2-inches at the top.
