Samsung Electronics has announced two new Galaxy ‘Tab 3’ Android tablets. There’ll be one with an 8-inch screen and another with a 10.1-inch screen. Both are launching worldwide this month and will be available alongside the previously announced 7-inch version.

Samsung GALAXY Tab 3 10.1-inch

The 8-inch Tab 3 runs a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor, while the 10.1-inch tablet has a 1.6 GHz dual-core processor. Both will offer 3G and 4G  connectivity as well as WiFi.

Samsung’s 7-inch Tab 3 was originally announced in April.

In addition, Samsung has revealed the Galaxy S4 Active smartphone. This isn’t simply a toughened version of the Galaxy S4; although it runs Android on a 1.9GHz quad-core processor it only has an 8-megapixel camera and uses TFT rather than Super AMOLED technology for the 5-inch screen. The Galaxy S4 Active is water and dust resistant to IP67, features a water-resistant earphone socket and can be operated when wearing gloves.

JK Shin, CEO and President of the IT & Mobile Communications Division at Samsung Electronics, said “The GALAXY S4 Active is the newest addition to the GALAXY series and is purposefully designed for active users who love the outdoors. Samsung has taken the innovative features of the GALAXY S4 and added breakthrough protective design elements to create a device that thrives in an active environment and is built for a lifestyle of travel and exploration.”

Mark Bridge writes:

If I’m paying for internet access - whether the arrangement is with a broadband service provider for my home or a mobile network operator on my smartphone - I want to be able to use that access however I want. That’s pretty much what net neutrality is all about.

But the debate isn’t necessarily as straightforward as it sounds. To learn more, I spoke to Doug Suriano, Chief Technology Officer at mobile broadband solutions company Tekelec.

ExclusiveReview of Nexus 7 audio recording

Mark Bridge writes:

By now, everyone who's anyone has offered an online 'unboxing' of their Asus Google Nexus 7. And if they haven't, there's probably a review on the way.

I'm very happy with mine. But there was one particular usage scenario I was curious about. How would it function as an audio recorder?
