Looked at them in stores, but we actually won this product from a prize drawing. Worked wonderfully for a few months and then the software started to mess up, now I have to send in to get fixed. Couldn't register because I didn't receive a receipt. Thankfully Samsung can look up the serial number and noticed it was still under warranty because of the date it was made.
I didn't really expect much since this tablet isn't the latest one that Samsung is selling. But for the price, you get your tablet that has pretty much everything you expect from the features to the performance.
One of the only things I didn't like about my galaxy tab was that it wasn't universally charged. So when I forgot my charger and no one had the same tablet as I did, then I wouldn't be able to continually use the tablet. In addition, it's battery life wasn't all that great but I was still happy to be able to do so much on it!
I read my books, watched my videos, played games, and surfed the internet easily. Overall, this was definitely a good buy but in the future, I'd consider buying a higher end tablet from Samsung.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Inexpensive, Realistic color
I would recommend this to a friend!

This tablet can withstand the wrath of my 2 kids, yet it looks great and I can use it for all of my personal stuff. I take it practically everywhere with me. My only problem is that my cord/battery started malfunctioning about 2 months ago, however Samsung was very understanding and they paid for me to ship it back to them for servicing, and they also replaced the cord, free of charge for parts and labor.
I've had the tab 2 for a little over a year now, and, considering it's age and price, it's still a fairly decent alternative to more expensive machines. Though, in today's market, I would definitely look for more power/speed and one with a better camera.
My main use for my Tab 2 is reading and streaming video.
PURCHASED THIS PRODUCT FOR MY 8YEAR OLD AND OH BOY HAS BEEN BEST INVESTMENT EVER BECAUSE SHE ADORES IT COULD WATCH NETFLIX AND YOUTUBE MOVIES WHEN WERE WATCHING OUR TV AND SHE COULD DOWNLOAD GAMES EASY OVER WIFI REACHES EVERYWHERE AND MAN DOES THE BATTERY LAST A LONG TIME AND I EVEN USE IT ALLOT LOVE SIZE PORTABLE GREAT VOULUME AWSOME FOR EVERYTHING AND LOVE MOST OF ALL THE PRICE NO COMPLAINTS AT ALL
When I first got this product I loved it! My son plays with it a lot but it is getting out dated and I have had it for less than a year. I wish samsung only updated once a year like my iPhone does so that way devices wouldn't get out dated so easily. I do like samsungs customer service. They were all very friendly and very prompt :)
Pros: Inexpensive, Durable, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

I purchased my tablet almost two years ago & I honestly can't think what I did before I got it because I constantly use it now. It was a refurbished unit so overtime I've noticed a few little bugs but overall I love it. It's great for connecting with all my social media. I can keep informed with all my emails & plus my kiddo can use it to play her games as well. Like I said, don't know what I did before because now I can't live without it.
