As the tool to compete with iPad mini by Samsung, the Galaxy Note 8.0 started to sell in UK recently! And the 16GB / Wi-Fi edition is charged for 339.00 pound!
The Galaxy Note 8.0 has a 8.0 inch 1280*800 pixel TFT display. And this tablet computer uses 1.6GHz Exynos 4 Quad-Core CPU, 2GB RAM, 4600mAh li battery, runs Android 4.1.2 system. It also has a front and a rear dual cameras. It supports up to 64GB external micro-sd card.
From the pice in UK, we can see it is even more expensive than iPad mini. However, from the specification, its hardware is more strong. If you need a cheap Android tablet, it may be not a good choice!
With the quad-core Android tablets getting more and more popular, the displays used in the tablets are also getting upgraded! And we see many products advertised high definition or retina display. How good the retina display is, today let’s have a look some pictures compared with normal display. The retina display has a very definition: 2048×1536 pixel, while the normal display we chose is 1024×768 pixel!
We can under the same image, the retina display is much more clear, it shows more staff in detail. The retina display is also more bright!
Compared the fonts in the screen, after enlarged, thanks to the high definition, the retina display is also looking better!
The above photos are the screen shots while playing 1080P videos. We can tell that retina display provide more vivid and the color repruduction is better.
After making the pictures very big, the difference between them is even more clear!
However, though the retina display provides us much better resolution, it has some disadvantage as well. For example, it costs more power. And cause of the super high definition, some applications may not work very well in the tablet computers. The price of retina display devices may be higher. We should choose the one that suitable for us. In a 7.0 inch tablet uses 1024×768 pixel definition, the performance is also ok. but for a 10 inch or bigger display, you may consider a higher definition version!

APQ 8064 is the latest quad-core high performance CPU released in 2012 by Qualcomm and it is used by kinds of Android tablets and mobile devices manufacturers. While Tegra 4 is the 2013 flagship product by Nvidia, but so far no devices running this CPU yet. Some professional people said the APQ 8064 has been in the market from some time now, its price is more compatitive. Plus the CPU from Qualcomm usually combined 3G,4G network, which can make the design more brief.
So though Nexus 7 uses Nvidia Tegra 3 CPU, considering the cost to produce the tablet computer, Nexus 7 II would say goodbye with Tegra 4. From other news, the Nexus 7 II would come with 1920*1080 pixel HD display and would still choose ASUS to produce.
