I've bought the tablet for 2 weeks now. Display is wonderful and there are many great apps on google play. I mainly use this on my bed when I wake up in the morning. Personally, I think it's a bit too heavy for such use, as I often felt neck or wrist sore after some long hours of use. I'd recommend a smaller size (like the 7") if you want to use it for a long time in bed.
I love the front stereo speakers, as well as the automatic brightness adjustment of the tablet. I use it about 5-6 hours before recharging.
Some of my apps (google talk and etc) crash when my battery was rather low (~25% or something) while I had an SD-card with tonnes of stuff in. I factory-resetted it and it took 10 mins. The tablet is as new right now and hopefully nothing will crash again (they haven't yet).
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color
This is by far my best tech experience. The device is brilliant and for the price I see no difference between this and the iPad. I love the android system and am just waiting for the day it surpasses iTunes. Keep up the good work Samsung!
It looks good and gets done what you need it to. Not a flashy over the top tablet but comes with the features you'd expect. Battery life is pretty good. I feel like i got a good value for my buck but dont feel like i have the latest and greatest. a bit disappointed though that it doesn't come with NFC. would be nice if my phone and tab could exchange data by means of NFC.
I got this as a Father's day gift and have barely put it down since! I use it as a remote for all of the entertainment systems in my home, read books, play games, watch movies, and keep up to date with Social networks.
This has got to be be the best gift I have ever received!
Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 a true competitor in its class

It is a true competitor in its class, better than the predecessor (i2) of it's number one competition "TNi", the only thing that I don't like about it is the low quality of the camera.
I was looking to replace an e-reader with more technology, and the Galaxy 2 10.1 was just what I was looking for. Sleek, lightweight and easy to learn and use, it just doesn't get any better.
