If you’re in the market for a 7-inch tablet, now is the probably the best time to get one. Samsung has revised the prices for two of the best 7-inch tablets in the market at the moment.
The Galaxy Tab 7.7 is now RM1,899 from RM2,099 and the Galaxy 7.0 Plus has been reduced to RM1,399 from RM1,699.
The revised pricing makes the 7-inch tablets from Samsung a tantalising proposition. The Galaxy Tab 7.7 features the largest Super AMOLED Plus display on a consumer device. At 1280×800 resolution, you’re assured of sharp images and videos as well. In addition, the 1.4Ghz dual-core Exynos processor and 1GB RAM makes the Galaxy Tab 7.7 the most powerful 7-inch tablet in the Malaysian market at the moment. Have we mentioned that the 3MP camera is among the best we’ve used as well?
The Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus is by far the best value for money device you can get right now. For a smidgen under RM1,400, you get the same processing power as the Galaxy S II, a 7-inch 1024×600 pixel PLS LCD display and a very impressive 3MP rear shooter. With the 7.0 Plus there’s an infra-red port as well. Coupled with a pre-installed app, the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus is a rather good universal remote as well.
On top of all this, the Galaxy Tab 7.7 and 7.0 Plus can handle phone calls, text messages and support Whatsapp, there’s nothing in the market that comes close these two can offer at the moment.
Thank you to everyone that sent this in.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 is officially on sale in Malaysia today with the retail price of RM2,099. If you’re still wondering, the Galaxy Tab 7.7 that we are getting comes with 16GB of internal storage. A few days ago, DiGi had started its pre-order for the Galaxy Tab 7.7 from as low as RM1,399 on its DG Smart Plans. Now Celcom has revealed its bundled pricing which starts from RM1,409.
For the Galaxy Tab 7.7, Celcom has moved away from its usual Celcom Exec with bolt-on data bundling by offering Celcom Broadband upfront with Pay As You Go voice. This means the subscription is meant for data while calls/sms are charged separately as you use, which is the similar model as DiGi’s Smart Plan.
There are 3 plans on offer – RM48 for 1.5GB, RM68 for 4GB and RM98 for 6GB, which is pretty competitive. Calls are charged at 15 sen/minute while SMS are charged at 10 sen each. You have an option to get the Galaxy Tab 7.7 with either 12 months or 24 months duration. The lowest price of RM1,409 is tied with 24 months of RM98 (6GB) plan. For those that want to commit less with shorter duration, the Galaxy Tab 7.7 can be yours for RM1,739 with 12 months contract of RM48 (1.5GB) plan.
Depending on which plan option, they are giving 10 months of special rebate. For the early birds, Celcom is giving out a free bookcase worth RM249 for the first 300 at selected outlets.
For more information, head over to Celcom.

UPDATE: DiGi has brought back the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 pre-order page online. Now it is offered from as low as RM1,399. The outright price has been revised as well to RM2,099. That’s RM400 more than the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus. To pre-order, head over here.
Original Post: DiGi has finally revealed its Galaxy Tab 7.7 bundled pricing just as teased yesterday. At time of posting, the page is taken down but we are expecting them to put this back later today.
Outright, the 7.7″ tablet with Super AMOLED Plus display goes for RM2,299 which is the same price as its smart phone counterpart, the Galaxy Note.
For those that wish to go on contract, you have a choice of DG SmartPlan 48 and 68 with either 12 or 24 months duration. The contracted pricing are as follows:
DG Smart Plan 48 (12 months) –
RM1,899RM1,749
DG Smart Plan 48 (24 months) –RM1,749RM1,599DG Smart Plan 68 (12 months) –
RM1,799RM1,649
DG Smart Plan 68 (24 months) –RM1,549RM1,399
Note that these pricing are obtained via screenshots before the original Tab 7.7 page was taken down so there’s a small chance that it might be revised again later. Do check on DiGi’s Online Store later for the official figures. As usual, there’s also an upfront payment between RM50-RM500 required depending on plan and duration. Do expect other telcos to offer the Galaxy Tab 7.7 and we are looking at Celcom as the next player.
With Galaxy Note and Galaxy Tab 7.7 both having the same price tag, which would you go for and why?
UPDATE: DiGi starts pre-order of Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 from RM1,399. RRP RM2,099. More details here.
Update: Word has is that the Galaxy Tab 7.7 will very likely be available at selected Samsung Exclusive Partner stores this Friday. By very likely, we mean most definitely.
Heads up people, DiGi just dropped the bomb on Facebook. The operator will be revealing plans for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 tomorrow. We don’t think physical units will be available tomorrow but if DiGi does what they always do, you can expect the Galaxy Tab 7.7 to be available on pre-order on DiGi Store Online. And if DiGi continues to do what we think they will do, you can expect to receive delivery of the Galaxy Tab 7.7 by Friday.
Earlier, Samsung revealed that the Galaxy Tab 7.7 will retail for less than RM2,500. Our estimates put the device around the RM2.2k mark mainly because of the 7.7-inch 1280×800 Super AMOLED Plus display – possibly the largest Super AMOLED Plus display on a consumer device to date – which will be expensive to produce, so naturally, you can expect a premium for that display.
We’re expected other operators to start revealing plans for the device soon as well. Stay tuned!

Samsung Malaysia dropped another clue via Facebook on the launch of its Galaxy Tab 7.7 saying that it will be available in the country in around a couple of week or so. While that’s certain not a rock solid commitment on Samsung’s part, it does give us an indication on when the device will be launching in Malaysia.
Earlier, Samsung revealed that the Galaxy Tab 7.7 will retail for less than RM2,500. Our estimates put the device around the RM2.2k mark mainly because of the 7.7-inch 1280×800 Super AMOLED Plus screen – possibly the largest Super AMOLED Plus display on a consumer device to date. Naturally, you can expect a premium for that display. Because the Galaxy Tab 7.7 is also essentially a mobile phone, you can expect operators to offer with plans for the device as well.
Just a little recap on specs if you are not already aware, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 packs a 1.4GHz dual-core processor with 1GB of RAM (similar to that in the Galaxy Note) and runs on Android 3.2 Honeycomb OS (Samsung has confirmed that the 7.7 will be getting ICS later in the year). In terms of imaging, there’s a 3MP Autofocus camera with 720p video recording capabilities at the back and a 2MP front facing camera. There are three storage variants — 16GB/32GB/64GB – and all will have a MicroSD card slot that supports cards up to 32GB.
The Galaxy Tab 7.7 comes with a generous 5,100mAh battery and weighs only 335g, which is 45g lighter than the original Galaxy Tab. When compared to the larger Galaxy Tab 10.1 (8.6mm thickness), the Galaxy 7.7 is thinner at 7.89mm.

Update: Samsung says the price for the Galaxy Tab 7.7 will be less than RM2,500.
Samsung Malaysia in a reply to a question on Facebook has mentioned that the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 is slated to launch in Malaysia somewhere between late Jan to early Feb.
Details are still sketchy at the moment so don’t treat this as the final word from Samsung. In any case, many will just be happy to know that the Tab 7.7 is coming.
In terms of pricing, we can only guess at the moment but expect the device to go beyond the RM2k mark thanks to that 7.7-inch 1280×800 Super AMOLED Plus screen. It’s probably the largest Super AMOLED Plus display to date. So expect a premium on that but expect operators to come up with plans for the device as well.
