Romanian version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab is left with a “Porn” button
Share:
Limited space can some times come into play on how certain words are displayed on a touchscreen, and in this specific scenario, it's Samsung's very own Android powered Galaxy Tab.
From a cursory look at the Romanian version of the tablet, you'll instantly find the obvious “Porn” button found squarely next to one of the commonly used buttons with the platform – the home button within the main menu. It appears as though this “Porn” button is simply a mistake, or rather just cutting corners to get a word to fit in correctly, since the Romanian word for “Home” is “Pornire.” So it looks as though some cross cutting actions were made in getting it to fit perfectly; hence why the rest of the word was shaved off.
It's hard to say how something like this managed to pass their quality assurance process, but obviously, it's one eye straining thing that can't be missed. Nonetheless, we'd imagine that Samsung will correct this issue before the tablet begins to make its way from the factory to stores.

The word for "Home" in romanian is "Acasa" not "Pornire". "Pornire" is for "Turning On". The mistake is probably for a "Turning on" button.
