Samsung announces ATIV Q: a Windows / Android hybrid with a 3,200 x 1,800 display
At its Premiere event in London today, Samsung unveiled the ATIV Q, a hybrid that can run both Android and Windows 8. On-stage, Executive Vice President DJ Lee said the "versatile and adaptable" device can switch between four positions. The Q sports a 13.3-inch display with a 3,200 x 1,800 (qHD+) resolution (that works out to 275 ppi). Samsung says the panel is optimized for use in bright sunlight, and viewing angles are wide, at 178 degrees. There's also an S Pen on board to take advantage of that spacious screen, which Galaxy Note fans will certainly appreciate.
Apart from the high-res display, the standout feature is the device's dual-OS support. To switch between Android Jelly Bean and Windows, you simply have to press the Start button, and you can even pin Android apps to the Windows screen. Under the hood, there's a Haswell processor that Samsung says will net you up to nine hours of battery life. All this comes in a magnesium body that's portable: it weighs just 1.29kg (2.84 pounds) and measures just 13.9mm (0.5 inch).
