Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 review
Samsung does a number of things right with the Galaxy Tab 2 – the pricing makes more sense, and most of the sacrifices Samsung made to hit that number are ones I'm willing to accept (though I'd love to have that AMOLED display).
Pros:
- Nice-looking design
- Runs Android 4.0
- Affordable at $399.99
- Neat universal remote functionality
Cons:
- Glitchy performance
- Android tablet app ecosystem is weak
- Poor camera

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 review
We had high hopes for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and if you need a tablet with a more flexible operating system than iOS then its slender, lightweight design makes it an attractive choice. You do have to sacrifice ports and battery life in the process though so it's not an ideal choice for everyone.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 is ultimately a forgettable entry in the ever-growing chronicle of Samsung Android-powered products. The core elements of this tablet are fine; the screen works, its connectivity is good and the Android platform offers quite a bit of functionality.
Pros:
- Android Ice Cream Sandwich
- Low price
- 3G option
Cons:
- Average performance and battery life
- Dull-looking design
- Battery heats up during use
- Strong competition

This great-looking, media-centric tablet has an excellent screen and speakers, but it lags behind a bit in value versus other 10-inch slates. (Blame the CPU and meager 16GB of storage.)
Pros:
- Great-looking screen
- Excellent sound recording and playback
- Decent-quality cameras
Cons:
- Older dual-core-technology processor
- Low (16GB) storage for the price
- Relatively short battery life

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Review
Is my repeatedly-thrown gauntlet between new iPad and the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 a fair challenge? They feature roughly the same dimensions and both are available in 16GB capacity, with this entry-level (Wi-Fi-only) Apple option coming in at a nice neat $100 above the one and only Samsung choice, so for...
Pros:
- Gotta love that microSDHC card slot
- Superior onboard stereo sound
- That IR emitter that turns this tablet into a super-mega-ultra remote
- in seconds
- Rich
- consumer-friendly Google Ecosystem
Cons:
- The screen pales beside the latest competition from Apple
- Slightly sluggish to boot
- load
- Wi-Fi only
- no data/carrier options

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1
With Asus' 32GB Transformer Pad available for ￡399 complete with quad-core CPU, 8Mp camera and keyboard dock, and the smaller Nexus 7 soon to hit the market for ￡160, the Galaxy Tab 2 isn't quite cheap enough to make a compelling case for itself. It's not a bad device per se , though.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 review
A year ago we liked the Tab 10.1, and for the second generation the hardware specs remain broadly the same, and the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 has a much better operating system. All for £100 cheaper than it was.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1)
Samsung has definitely established itself as a great name in the world of Android, so you can expect to hear plenty of good stuff about its Galaxy range of tablets. Among these is the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1) Wi-Fi , a non-3G device that comes with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich installed right...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 review
We've had not one, but two tablets from Samsung in recent times. The Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 tablet looks and behaves very similarly to the Galaxy Note 10.1 (not to be confused with the Galaxy Note 2 -- that's a 5.5-inch handset, dummy), but it drops the price and the spec to deliver a more affordable...
Pros:
- Fine screen
- good battery life
Cons:
- Processor's not great
- only a 3 megapixel camera

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1)
With the tablet market so crowded these days, Apple's once commanding position is being eroded by Android tablet manufacturers such as Google, Samsung and Asus. Whilst the iPad is still clearly the biggest seller, the options for those that prefer the Android operating system or perhaps don't have...
Pros:
- Great quality screen for the price
- Cheap
- Highly configurable
- Great range of apps
- Easy to use
- MicroSD support
Cons:
- Very poor audio
- Only 3MP rear camera
- Struggles with some of the more graphically intensive tablet games
- Google Play store should better identify tablet optimised apps
