October 2011 Samsung introduced the world to a ridiculously giant smartphone. I remember you fly on hand to give to that brick thinking: “It’s absurd. Nobody will want a big smartphone “. That was the Galaxy Note smartphone, the phablets were born and I was wrong. Today perhaps
me wrong again

Today, Samsung has introduced the Samsung Galaxy View . Basically, it’s a monstrously large and equipped with a tilting rear base with a handle Android tablet. The set is really strange, as a kind of monument to the shopping bag designed by Philippe Stark. In fact, I think it deserves a new term acuñemos. It is not a smartphone, not a phablet or a tablet. It is a tablet-bag, the baglet (Bolseta in Castilian) .
If Philippe Stark did a tribute to the bag, it would.
A home tablet
Galaxy View is actually a bit of that, a bag where to put all your digital entertainment to bring the kitchen to the living room, the hall to the bedroom, and the bedroom to the office.
The astute reader will notice that I am mentioning household units. The base is tiltable, but not removable. I doubt anyone wants to get the Galaxy View for a ride, but stranger things have happened. 4 years ago I did not think anyone would bring a 5.3-inch device in your pocket, and indeed today we bigger than that.
The scale base to use the tablet horizontally. It is much more comfortable than it looks.
No, the idea of Galaxy View is that we have a specific device to stream anything (TV, movies, series ), access the Internet and view Twitter or a recipe, or hang out with any Android game.
A new market niche
I know what you’re thinking. That already exists and is called tablet. Yes, but not with such a generous display. It not even makes sense to compare the iPad Pro or other large tablets. It also sounds a laptop, but no. Perhaps it is closer to the idea of convertible, but its center of gravity rotates in a low orbit around leisure. Just like four years ago, I am tempted to dismiss the idea as I did with the Galaxy Note. However, just see how we consume content today to sense that perhaps the Galaxy View is a pioneer after all.
Samsung has added an application with a configurable grid streaming services.
Just watch the little kids. Kids today just look at the TV. Leisure Centre are tablets. They watch videos Peppa Pig or unboxing of Kinder eggs on YouTube (Yes, that exists), and playing video games for iOS or Android.
The speakers, located near the hinge. Sound great.
Samsung is not the first to try to make this move. Sony already tried in 2013 of the hand of the VAIO Tap 20 This was an all in one touch with Windows 8. The difference is that the Galaxy View is more convenient and easy to use (and much cheaper. Sony asked for 1,000 euros Tap 20)

Some considerations
- The sound comes from two large and surprisingly powerful rear speakers.
- According to the manufacturer, the battery lasts 8 hours in video playback. Fully charged in about an hour and a half.
- No 3G connection (not make much sense to have it), but also supports miracast or video broadcast systems to TVs. . It is intended to reproduce, to transmit
- Its ports are: load, microUSB and 3.5mm headphone jack
Yes, the Galaxy View is loaded by a proprietary port.
In short …
The Samsung Galaxy View is available now priced at $ 599 or 649 euros. It is a relatively expensive price when compared with those of some smartphones or tablets that boast more power and better resolution, but that it is a product category completely different.
If we were to place it somewhere group would be in TVs. Do you think the idea of striking a personal TV to watch football while your partner sees nothing on TV from home? Think you have a laptop and connected screen is what your home needs? If you respond yes to many of these questions it is possible that the Galaxy View will become the first in a new product category and I was not wrong this time. Maybe in four years we are doing comparative baglets.
