Storage capacity is a major factor that attracts the users and Apple’s iPad 4 comes with 16 GB, 32 G, 64 GB and 128 GB storage space, which is more than enough for storing data. Whereas, Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 3 comes with two storage options i.e. 16 GB and 32 GB, which is expandable up to 64 GB using a microSD card. However, none can beat the 128 GB storage capacity offered by iPad 4. Next when we come to the processor, iPad 4 is powered by dual-core A6X processor with quad-core graphics and 1GB of RAM and Tab 3 is powered by a 1.6 GHz Atom Z2560 CPU and also 1GB of RAM.
Operating System
Both Samsung and Apple have equipped the devices with the latest versions of the operating systems. Galaxy tab that runs on Android platform makes use of Android 4.2 and combines Samsung’s TouchWiz UI layered on top, which makes the tab function efficiently and smoothly. Th iPad 4 runs on iOS 6, which was until a few months back the newest version. However, it is not possible to argue and debate over this as both the OS are good and helps in multitasking.

When it comes to design, Galaxy Tab 3 is lightweight as compared to iPad 4 and comes in a sleek as well as classy design. It is a bit longer than the iPad and is slimmer as well as narrower, which lends a stylish look to it. However, when it comes to display, iPad 4 has a better display as compared to Tab 3. Although, Tab 3 boasts of a 10.1 inch display with a screen resolution of 1,280 x 800 pixels, whereas iPad 4 comes with a 9.7 inch diplay and has a screen resolution of 1536 x 2048 pixels.
