Ive had mine less than a month but long enough to test it and I have seen only one thing that make's it slow down a bit and thats the number of apps running at one time, The task manager is quick to access and you can use it to end the apps that are running(and not using anyway) and speed is restored, nothing to whine about. I believe most people complaining about this tablet are not as familiar with it as they need to be before posting a review.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Lightweight, well made
I bought the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 to replace my iPad 2. The Galaxy Tab far exceeded my expectations. I am thoroughly impressed with this product. The performance is great, the ease of setup and number of apps available for the Tab are amazing. This is my go to over my laptop. I use the Tab for everything, email, word documents, spreadsheets, etc. Great product for the price. No complaints what so ever.
This table reminds me of the ipad without flesh. Most of the popular games from the android market aren't even compatible with this device. No tegra and gameloaf games. These are some of most popular games in market. Love media hub that's about it. I am not happy with this device and i am a big fan of Samsung. If there is something i need to do that would make these games work i would like to know.
Just started using android market, have Mac's mostly. I bought the doc, and it helps when charging, it would have been nice to have some LED's on the front of the dock to let you know when your tablet is charging or fulling charging, ie. green for fully charged, orange for charging, and red for dead.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color
Cons: dock could have some visable led's for charging
After spending a couple of weeks with the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, I found liking it enough to not return it to the store but still wanting more so as to not keeping it as my daily driver. Lucky for both Samsung and me, the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 was released. I gave my mom the 7.0 model as a belated Mothers' Day gift and bought a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 for my own use. I'm very pleased with my decision since the 10.1 model gives that that extra I was craving while I was using the 7.0 model. The Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 retains everything that makes its 7.0 sibling so awesome and adds more storage and a bigger, higher resolution screen, while still being thin and lightweight enough to motivate you to use it.
I've seen the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 getting poor reviews from people with the wrong expectations. They expected a high-end tablet, and Samsung will very likely deliver with a future mode... But the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 is a great tablet if you don't need (or can't afford) to get top of the line specs, yet you don't want to be stuck with just the basics. I'm very pleased with my purchase.
Overall I have loved my Galaxy Tablet. I have put it head to head with an iPad 3rd generation and overall I still prefer the Galaxy. The only down side I have noticed is that the swiping tends to be a little slower than the iPad.
