Here is a link to MaximumPC.com. I am an avid techie and researcher of said devices. In this article they compare (in video) the Samsumg Galaxy S and the Viewsonic Viewpad side by side. Cheers http://www.maximumpc.com/article/reviews/7-inch_showdown_galaxy_tab_vs_viewpad_7

@Coog makes good points for a new G series, however, my number one interest in the G12 is the viewfinder. This is simply where the S100 doesn't make the cut. The fully articulating rear screen on my S5 IS has enabled many, many otherwise unobtainable shots. Being able to hold the camera in positions where one's head can't go simply enables shots that would otherwise be missed. With that, I hope that Canon does continue the G series, swapping sensors and processors as prices come down. I need these sub-$400 cameras because I'm pretty hard on pocketables. The last two only lasted 4 months each.

They are both great sets and you will love either one. Most people would not notice any differences or care about any differences -- they both look better for most purposes than a comparably priced LCD (even a 1080p one). They handle motion effortlessly and have rich colors and blacks. I read on various sites that some find the Panny to have even deeper blacks and better glare-reduction (a related phenomenon, though one lost on me since my room streams light in from angles not straight-on) while Samsung may have a slightly sharper picture and more accurate colors (or at least more controls to get them accurate). I doubt I would see a difference, honestly. I do like the swivel stand on the Sammy, and its more modern look, but that is minor and maybe you are wall-mounting anyway. Some Panny models (but I am not sure if this one) had issues using it as a display for the computer (fewer ways to connect it) so double check if they improved that in this model. Otherwise, they are functionally the same, to anybody except the fine-tuners on the AVS forum board who say they can tell (and yet split as to their preference). I think, at least as to last year's models, that Consumer Reports placed the Samsung slightly above the Panny Viera, while the Cnet reviewer did the opposite. So my opinion is that both are great. I admit though that at home (as opposed to Big Box stores) I have only seen the sammys, and I know they are great. I just am not going to be that fanboy who then lies about whether I would own a Panny -- I absolutely would, and will if Samsung ever goes LCD-only.

I feel like Sony is more better than samsung compared to picture quality and sound. So I would prefer Sony. Please check the review on Cnet

Thanks for your response. So... Is there any difference in picture quality?

some would see it on either side ... if you really like samsung's user interface they have on their galaxy products by all means you'll probably enjoy this ... if you dont, steer clear ...

AJ, etc. I currently have the new Samsung 6900. It does not have these issues at all, but I am in the process of returning to Amazon due to the fact that I can only get 4 mpps over wireless, yet I have a 20Mpps network. I ordered the Panisonic BD-85 which should arrive Wednesday. On the Samsung you CAN view and even search for movies in Netflix, then choose and watch and the GUI interface is fantastic. If the Pany won't do it, I'll be returning both. Guess I got a bad 6900 as it is CNET's best of 2010.

I am looking at both of these models as well. I bought a Samsung 42" LCD 2.5 years ago and it is now failing. (Estimated repair cost for 1 of the 3 problems it is now having is $850.) Not a good track record for my money. So, I will probably go with the Sony. Has anyone had any repair problems with the Sony LCD's?

Bump. I'm in the same boat, don't care too much about 3D, just picture quality. Is the ST30 significantly better PQ than the S30?And just to confirm, the ST30 comes with the WiFi adapter while the S30 does not, right?

I would love to replace my Coolpix 3200 with the S10, but I've decided I can't live without a viewfinder. I tried shooting LCD only with my Minolta, and it is hard to see in the sunlight ALSO I don't like seeing my reflection taking a photo. Too bad because I'm very interested in the stabilized zoom!

Hi, I was at Circuit City and I was viewing Samsung and a Sony at the same time. I wanted to buy the Samsung but I have the same problem you do.. Glare. The salesman said that the Samsung has a gloss screen as the sony has more of a matte screen but it has just a little gloss but a lot less then samsung.. So I decided to buy the Sony LCD. Sony is better in this situation.

Based on specs and information it looks, to me, like the viewsonic is better.

A. Acker, from the sounds of it, neither of you own both cameras. The difference between the two of you is that nsr has the next best thing, side by side comparison shots(that you have the nerve to repeatedly ignore). You? unnamed forums posts and user groups. And yes, you are being immature and overly defensive. I'm glad you're happy with your camera, but please just stop.

I am helping a friend make the exact same choice. (I was happy to see we aren't the only people arriving at the same 2 cameras!) Which camera did you choose and for which reason(s)?

oops.....thought you were asking about another tablet, not sure if this has dual cameras? the tablet only lasted a week and I had to returnI spent an additional $100 and purchased a Samsung tablet.

I saw these two TV's beside each other today, playing from the same source, the Samsung had a considerably better picture. For the record, I had gone to the store to by the Panasonic, came home emptyhanded, better do more research.
