Apple iPad Pro vs. Samsung Galaxy View: The battle of the big-screens

Apple and Samsung are set to introduce new tablets to the marketplace, and these new offerings are truly promising to be the next big things.

Starting with Apple's iPad Pro, one of the most eye-catching attributes of this new tablet is that it possesses the biggest display of any release from the company at 12.9 inches. That trumps the typical height for other iPads that usually settled at around 9.7 inches, according to PC Advisor UK.

However, that's not even the biggest tablet that is expected to come out in November.

Samsung's newest offering, known as the Galaxy View, is expected to dwarf the 12.9 inches offered by the iPad Pro by providing users with a display that measures a staggering 18.4 inches. That would mean that it has a display nearly half a foot larger than the biggest one Apple has ever offered for any tablet.

While both tablets are certainly aiming to use their enormous displays to capture the attention of the general public, they also have other specs worth looking at.

Beginning with the processor, the iPad Pro will feature the new A9X chipset in order to help it perform even better. On the other hand, Samsung's Galaxy View is expected to feature the Exynos 7580 chipset, according to GSM Arena.

Moving on to the respective memory offerings of the two tablets, the iPad Pro will reportedly offer two variants, with one providing 32GB of internal storage and the other one going all the way up to 128GB. Samsung's Galaxy View will offer 32GB of internal storage, though that can be expanded all the way up to 128GB by using a microSD card. 

Apple's iPad Pro will provide users with 4GB or RAM, while the Samsung Galaxy View is expected to offer 2GB of RAM.

Both the iPad Pro and the Galaxy View are expected to be released in November.
