TABLET FUNCTIONALITY IN AN EDUCATION ENVIRONMENT:

DELL LATITUDE ST, APPLE IPAD 2, AND SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB 10.1

MARCH 2012

A PRINCIPLED TECHNOLOGIES TEST REPORT

Commissioned by Dell Inc.

Educators strive to provide the latest technologies in the classroom to create the best

educational experience possible for students. School districts have begun adopting tablets as a way to

provide students with access to the greatest educational resources, both at home and in the classroom.

Tablets vary considerably in their ability to handle tasks in the classroom. These highly portable

systems should be easy for IT staff to administer and for students and teachers to use for everyday

tasks, such as printing, taking notes, and sharing presentations. Which tablet best meets these

requirements? To answer this question, we tested the following three tablets and their respective

operating systems:

 Dell Latitude ST running Microsoft® Windows® 7 Professional

 Apple iPad 2 running iOS 5.0.1

 Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 running Google™ Android™ 3.2

In our tests in the Principled Technologies labs, the Dell Latitude ST running Microsoft Windows

7 Professional outpaced its competitors. Compared to the Apple iPad 2 and the Samsung Galaxy Tab

10.1, the Dell Latitude ST was able to perform the three types of everyday tasks out of the box with no

additional hardware or software necessary. This system also has functionality that would let IT staff do

their jobs more quickly and efficiently. The speed and simplicity with which the Dell Latitude ST handled

classroom and administrative tasks makes it an excellent tablet choice for an educational environment.
