Q. And review of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 !!??
A. It seems that Samsung have taken it upon themselves on literally making a tablet for everyone. With all of the Galaxy Tab variants out there, the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 it seems like systematic attempt by Samsung to put a unique tablet variant in the hands of every living person on the planet.

After just 6 months since the release of the original Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus, the Tab 2 7.0 has hardware which is, frankly, not much of an upgrade in most cases. It features the same 7 inch (obviously) PLS LCD display, and the connectivity features are identical as well. The processor has been downgraded from a dual-core 1.2GHz to a dual-core 1GHz silicon.
From software standpoint we have a different story, as the Tab 2 runs an improved Android build compared to its predecessor. The Android ICS build 4.0.3 on the Tab 2 is much more responsive than Honeycomb and actually makes for a user-friendly experience. And of course, the Tab 2 7.0 is more affordable than the Tab 7.0 Plus as well.
For now, here are the features and downsides of the new Tab 2 at a glance:
Key features
* 7.0" 16M-color PLS TFT capacitive touchscreen of WSVGA resolution (1024 x 600 pixels)
* Weighs 344 g
* TI OMAP 4430 chipset: Dual-core 1GHz processor; 1GB of RAM; PowerVR SGX540 GPU
* Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich with TouchWiz UX UI
* Optional quad-band GPRS/EDGE and tri-band HSPA connectivity (HSDPA, 21 Mbps; HSUPA, 5.76 Mbps)
* Support for voice calls, texts and MMS for the 3G version
* 8/16/32 GB of built-in memory
* 3.2 MP camera, 2048x1536 pixels, geotagging
* Front-facing camera supports video calling
* 1080p HD video recording @ 30 fps
* Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi Direct, dual-band, Wi-Fi hotspot
* Stereo Bluetooth v3.0

* Standard 3.5 mm audio jack
* Adobe Flash 11 support
* GPS with A-GPS support; digital compass
* 1080p DivX/XviD/MKV video support with subtitles
* Accelerometer and proximity sensor; three-axis Gyroscope sensor
* Polaris office document editor preinstalled
* 4000 mAh Li-Po rechargeable battery
Main disadvantages
* Front-facing camera is only VGA resolution
* No LED flash for primary camera
* Has a non-replaceable battery
* Uses a proprietary 30-pin connector port for charging and connectivity
* One of the lowest-capacity batteries in the range
* No USB charging
For whoever's keeping track, it also doesn't have an infrared port, but we're not really sure if anyone even used the one on the original Tab 7.0, or its preloaded Smart Remote app, so it's not that great of a loss.

One thing to keep in mind is that in the 7" Android tablet market the name of the game is affordability rather than features. Coming up is our hardware examination of the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, where we see how much bang you get for your buck.
What tablet should I get? Galaxy Tab 2 or Nexus 7?
Q. So I have $200, and I want to get a tablet, because I've never had one and the new house we're moving into has wi-if. :)
So, at Walmart, they're having a sale on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (Garnet Red Edition). I think it's 8 GB, but it's expandable to 32 GB. It also has a back camera, which I like. Also, if you buy, it ($219.99), you get a free $10 e-gift card. The reason why I'm considering this is because I like Samsung, and I LOVE that this one has a red color and it comes with a snap- on case.
BUT...
On all the reviews I've read, the Google Nexus 7 is better. Faster processor, and better screen. But I don't exactly like the look of it. :/ but I don't want to get the Samsung and then be disappointed because it might be slow??? Is it slow??? I also don't like the landscape-style that the nexus has. And that it doesn't have a back camera. And it's just plain black.
But despite all of this, should I pay the extra $50 and get the Nexus, or is the Samsung sufficient enough for me?
A. The nexus 7 is a better tablet, i tried the 10 inch version of the samsung which has similar specs and it was surprisingly slow. I recommend getting the nexus 7.
Does my galaxy tab 2 7.0 need a keyboard?
Q. so i recently bought the samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0 for my 7 year old sister.
i was looking for cases and ive come across some with wifi keyboards
does it really need a keyboard? if so why?
(i use it sometimes, im 21)
A. The only reason you would "need" a keyboard is if you were going to write papers and do assignments for school on it, otherwise the virtual keyboard that it provides will definitely work well enough. I hope you have fun with your new Galaxy Tab!!!
