Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Review

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 is not a bad tablet, but it's also almost identical, and in some ways inferior, to last year's Galaxy Tab 10.1.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 review

More Info Samsung announces Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 hands-on (video) PSA: Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, Galaxy Player 4.2

Thin and light design ; Healthy battery life ; IR blaster and universal remote app

Terrible camera, even for a tablet ; Display is sometimes unresponsive ; Performance trails similarly priced tablets

The second-gen 10.1 is a good enough Android 4.0 tablet with a pleasing, lightweight design and decent battery life. Still, its performance and feature set trail tablets that cost the same or even less.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 preview: First look

The 10-inch form factor is the corridors of power in tablet terms, but the ones that won't turn your wallet inside out are hard to come by. In the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, Samsung seem to have a reasonably-spec'd Android tablet, which might be the answer to...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 preview: First look

Samsung are really taking tablets seriously these days. They already have three offerings this year. The other two are more compact, but it's the Galaxy Tab 10.1 that will lead the team ahead in enemy territory. The trio surely has one hard task ahead...

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 gets 4G, fosters indifference

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 comes to Sprint, AT&T, and T-Mobile.

The ; is a well-designed tablet with powerful speakers, a responsive screen, and expandable storage.

The tablet is overpriced, its dual-core CPU has trouble running large 1080p movies smoothly, and its screen color accuracy isn't as high as the previous Tab 10.1's.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 comes up short in performance, features, and value compared with competing tablets.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 review

Samsung is changing its approach to tablets. Rather than compete at the highest end with the iPad or the Transformer Prime, Samsung's aiming for a happy medium: all the features we've come to...

Nice-looking design ; Runs Android 4.0 ; Affordable at $399.99 ; Neat universal remote functionality

Glitchy performance ; Android tablet app ecosystem is weak ; Poor camera

A $100 price advantage only buys you so much leeway

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1) review

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 was one of the premier Android tablets when it launched in 2011, with specs that, at the very least, matched top tier Android tablets at the time.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 is a well-designed tablet with powerful speakers, a responsive screen, and comes with Android 4.0 installed.

At $400, the tablet is overpriced compared with more-powerful competing tablets that offer better features for around the same price. The tablet's dual-core CPU has trouble running large 1080p movies smoothly, and its screen color accuracy isn't as...

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 comes up short in performance, features, and value compared with competing tablets.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1)

The Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1) is the same flagship tablet Samsung released a year ago, but this time around it has the latest version of Android and a lower price tag. With mediocre performance and aging components, there are better alternatives.

More affordable than its predecessor. Ships with Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0). Adds a microSD slot. Sharp, bright screen.

Aging components. Mediocre battery life. Performance not up to competition.

Conclusions Overall, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1) costs too much for the mediocre performance it delivers. The Galaxy Tab 2 (7.0) is a good deal at $250, offering a host of useful features for its budget price. But with the Asus Transformer Pad...

Review Samsung 10.1" Galaxy Tab 2 Tablet/MID

Little progress. The Galaxy Tab 2 series represents Samsung's rev

long battery life; fast 3G module; modest weight; decent display

poor sound; mean performance

The 10.1-inch Galaxy Tab 2 must compete with all current 10-inch tablets. These include but are not limited to the Apple iPad 3, Asus Transformer Tab TF300T, and Acer Iconia Tab A200. However, due to its comparatively slow CPU, it also competes against...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Review

This week we've gotten the next Galaxy Player family member in the house with the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 . What's that, you say? The Galaxy Tab 2 is a tablet and not a Galaxy Player? I beg to differ, ladies and gentlemen, as the Samsung world has...

This tablet is made for those ladies and gentlemen who want the $100 discount off the lowest price on the newest iPad. Though this tablet is not made specifically to compete with the iPad, and it really wont, you’ll find it to be amongst the best...
