Samsung quietly introduced the Galaxy Tab4 line on Tuesday in three of Samsung's major tablet sizes, 7, 8 and 10.1 inches.
三星(Samsung)周二低调发布了Galaxy Tab4系列平板电脑,这一产品线的平板电脑的尺寸分别为7英寸、8英寸和10.1英寸。
The various dual-core CPUs from the Galaxy Tab 3 series have been dumped in favor of new 1.2 GHz quad-core processors and the tablets now get 1.5GB of RAM instead of just 1GB. It's a modest step up, but even that's more noticeable than the screen change: The new models all have a 1,366x768 resolution display, as opposed to the predecessor's 1280x800 resolution.
Galaxy Tab3系列平板电脑使用的各种双核处理器已被摒弃,取而代之的是新的1.2 GHz四核处理器,内存从1GB扩大至1.5GB。虽然这些升级不算太大,但和屏幕的变化相比还是比较明显的:新平板都配置了分辨率为1,366x768的显示器,而此前机型的分辨率为1,280x800。
The best update may be stylistic, a move away from a slick plastic back to a matte, textured one.
最佳的更新可能是平板电脑的整体风格得到提升,机身从一块光滑的塑料板又恢复到具有磨砂质感的风格。
Each device--available in both black and white--will run on Android 4.4 KitKat, and have a relatively weak built-in 3MP rear camera and 1.3MP front camera.
该系列有黑、白两种配色,搭载Android 4.4 KitKat系统,还配有内置式3MP后置镜头和1.3MP前置镜头。
The Galaxy Tab4 7.0 will be sold with 8GB or 16GB of storage, while the Tab4 8.0 and 10.1 will be offered with 16GB of storage. Each model has a MicroSD card slot for those who need extra space to store apps, video, photos and documents.
Galaxy Tab4 7.0的内存分8GB和16GB,Tab4 8.0和Tab4 10.1的内存则均为16GB。这一系列的平板电脑均配有MicroSD卡槽,用户可以通过MicroSD卡提供的更多空间保存软件、视频、照片和文件等。
What they don't say in the press release: Clearly, Samsung is going for a budget play here. When the company says it's an 'exceptional multimedia experience for the whole family,' it means that you may not buy these for yourself but you could buy it for your kids.
三星在发布会上没有公开说明的一点是:很显然,该公司在家庭预算方面玩了一个把戏。但三星介绍称新产品“将为全家提供超凡的多媒体体验”时,其中的意思其实是,你可能不会为自己买这一系列的平板,但你可能会给自己的孩子购买。
The Tab 3 series sells for just over half what its Apple-based competitors sell for, and the 2014 specs appear to be basically just tweaks based on the cheapest available components. These devices seem competent for presenting video, books and games, but just be aware that they're not premium products.
Tab 3系列平板电脑的售价仅为苹果(Apple)类似尺寸平板电脑价格的一半多一点,新系列的平板电脑似乎是使用成本最低的组件对旧型号进行了一些改变。新平板电脑在呈现视频、书籍和游戏方面似乎没有什么问题,但你要明白的是这些并非高档产品。
Samsung does say that the three tablets will all ship sometime in May or June.
三星称所有三种型号的平板电脑都将在5月或6月的某个时候开始发货。
