      Guest_star, 26 Feb 2012PLS LCD is samsungs variant of IPS LCD some say it is good ... morePLS and IPS are miles apart, anyone with an Ipad2 and a Tab10.1 can easily tell that PLS is inferior in ALL aspects. Color reproduction including saturation and accuracy is better on the IPS, black levels are deeper and whites are better. Reviews that state PLS and IPS ( especially on the Ipad2 ) are fairly equal is a blatant lie.. PLS is more like e-IPS.

        The bigger the screen goes, the more room for error in manufacturing! But I would love to have a 10.1 SuperAMOLED HD as long as its a cherry picked screen, I dont care if I have to pay $1,200 for it. provided its 100% perfect in manufacturing level.

                  AnonD-34301, 26 Feb 2012What is PLS LCD? Is it any good?Average screen quality, ips is still better. Compared to superamoled this pls screen is a nice change because you dont need to rely on luck to get a non defective screen.

                              Samsung should give "v" letters to this version after ipad 3 announced
                              Remember galaxy 10.1v??very short galaxy tab version to copy apple
                              They changed the product to challange apple "thinner,lighter"

                                Heavier with outdated tech? You can tell that Samsung is not enthusiastic about the tablet market. So very half hearted.

                                Anyone notice how boring they've become since there has been nothing new to copy from Apple recently? Ah well, maybe they'll pick up the pace when the iPad 3 and iPhone 5 comes out and there are new features to copy.

                                        Now when are we original 10.1 owners going to get the ICS upgrade treatment? I hope that's still up their sleeves.
