The well-timed announcement of Apple iPad 2 has prompted Samsung to review their strategy for their Android-based Galaxy Tab.
Lee Don-joo, executive vice president of Samsung’s mobile division, said that Apple iPad 2 thinner design and competitive price presented new challenges for Samsung.
The iPad 2 is 8.8 mm in thickness, compared with 10.9 mm for Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 announced last month. And enticingly, the Apple iPad 2 price starts at the same price as the first generation Apple iPad, at $499.00.
“We will have to improve the parts that are inadequate,” Lee told Yonhap News Agency. “Apple made it very thin.”

“The 10-inch (tablet) was to be priced higher than the 7-inch (tablet) but we will have to think that over,” Lee added.
This just shows that competition can be good for consumers, as companies continue to polish their products in attempts to win consumers over to their side.
