The GT-P1000 model carries a 7" LCD TFT instead of the AMOLED which is used by Samsung in its other Galaxy S phones.[10] The screen has a 1024×600 resolution. Internal flash storage of 16 GB or 32 GB can be supplemented with a microSD flash card with up to 32 GB.

The front camera has auto focus features when pressing the virtual shutter button. Photo is taken upon release the button. The camera also has auto image stitching, combining 8 picture.

The tablet has 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, 3G connectivity through GSM[11], CDMA, HSPA (HSUPA) networks, and a GPS chip.
It also has a 30-pin docking/charging connector that is very similar to the PDMI connector, which is a standard, non-proprietary alternative to Apple's docking connector. Actually, it is so similar to the PDMI connector that it is widely mistaken for it, but Samsung has changed it sufficiently that it is non-standard so all accessories, including charging cables, must be purchased from Samsung and will be incompatible with other products.[citation needed]
It is believed that its 4000 mAh battery will give it 7 hours of video playback or 10 hours of talk time.[12]
The GSM variants of the Galaxy Tab have an externally accessible SIM card slot. If you remove the SIM card while the system is on the system automatically reboots. The AT&T and T-Mobile variants of the Galaxy Tab ship with a micro SIM in a micro SIM adapter.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab also has an optional RCA plug Video Cable that can output the screen to TV or other media. However the screen on the Tab cannot be turned off while you are watching. The best remedy for this situation is to use a backlight dimming app and keep it on the lowest setting
