today, a new tablet that runs two different
operating systems simultaneously, Windows 8
and Android version 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean)
operating systems.
The ATIV Q offers nine hours of battery life on
a full charge, which isn't bad considering the
processor and high-definition display. There's
also the dual-booting to worry about, which
comes with some new software called
SideSync to share various data between the
two separate operating systems.
Samsung is also playing up the Ativ Q's ability
to run Android applications. According to
Samsung, the Ativ Q will allow users to
"experience both Windows 8 and Android
(Jellybean 4.2.2) on the same device." Android
apps can be pinned to the Windows 8 start
screen and run directly from there. The Ativ Q
lets users get Android apps directly from the
Google Play store and also potentially by
copying them from Windows. Samsung says
that the device can transfer files and folders
between Windows 8 and Android (which we
assume will be running virtualized).
The Ativ Q is the larger device, powered by a
new Intel Haswell Core i5 CPU (with Intel's HD
Graphics 4400 integrated GPU). It has 4GB of
DDR3 RAM and comes with a 128GB SSD.
Samsung promises battery life of up to nine
hours with the Ativ Q.
