Say Hello to the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 is arguably the best tablet the company has ever delivered.

The Staying Power of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2
Although the Galaxy Tab 2 doesn't always get the kind of attention that Samsung might like and its sales are dwarfed by those of the iPad, the sales of the device have been strong enough to keep it an iPad competitor for years now. Few other tablets can say the same thing. That's a testament to Samsung's strong brand and exceptional product design.

The Samsung Flagship LEDs
It's hard to talk about Samsung's success without mentioning the company's outstanding flagship LED televisions.

Bring Out the Samsung Plasmas, Too
Ironically, Samsung is also doing an outstanding job at impressing customers with its plasma televisions. For years, it was only Panasonic and Pioneer that could deliver high-quality plasmas. But that's no longer the case. Samsung plasmas have the inky blacks that LEDs can't match, and they're driving huge product sales for the company. If folks like Samsung's plasmas, you can bet they'll be more likely to buy its other products. The "halo effect" is strong with Samsung.
