AFTER PURCHASE SAMSUNG REMOVED FRONT SCREENSHOT KEY
on January 18, 2013

One big reason I decided on this 7 inch tablet was the up front screenshot. Now that I've purchased it, you auto download a new software version that removes this function. The two button approach is very inconvenient, I feel I've been robbed. If the front button isn't restored, how can I be sure something similar won't happen again with another samsung product? I can't, so Samsung would be ruled out immediately on any future product purchases. Look at all the complaints on the web- you've disappointed a huge number of buyers- please make this right, issue an update to restore front button screenshots.
Cons: front buton screenshot removed
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Forced updates that remove functionality total lack of respect from SAMSUNG
on January 26, 2013
Posted by: careyesnietowan
I bought one of this tables running with the ICS 4.0.4 version and I had Zero problems with my tablet, one day it told me there was an update and there was no way to decline the update all I could do was to delay it 3 hours at most, every time in the middle of whatever I was doing it will interrupt after 3 hours to insist on the upgrade. There was absolutely zero information about the type of update, well after several delays I decided to get the update and that was my worst mistake. It re-arranged and removed many of my icons on my home screen. now instead of 1 bar with buttons and notifications there were 2 bars one at the top one at the bottom. The one with the clock and the notifications is at the top and cant be seen while you are in an app. You have to exit your app to see the battery charge, the clock and the notifications. The snapshot GONE, instead of one simple button that took the snapshot you need 2 hands and if you are lucky you will get the snapshot. several other changes, like the IR remote that was not working. The location of some icons in the home screen now have a fixed location and turning your tablet won't move them. SAMSUNG basically didn't care about customer impact and forced customers to blindly trust them. BTW. 2 hours after the upgrade the tablet froze for the first time. There have been many many many complains about this. NO MORE SAMSUNG products for me.
Cons: Did not meet expectations, updates downgrade functionality
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight

good product but VERY FLAWED!
on September 14, 2012

Expertise:Expert
This product is great but with the 8gb, it only has about 4gbs internal storage left and you cannot load apps from the SD card, so you only have 4gbs for ALL your apps, if you run out of internal memory, you are out of luck and cannot install anymore apps, this is a MAJOR FLAW, why have an sd card slot if we cannot even fully use it? samsung needs to fix this!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, very log memory, cannot use sd card for apps, very flawed
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Incorrect Picture
on January 17, 2013
Posted by: Designergeek
Expertise:Expert
The Tablet in the picture is not correct ... Never again will the Samsung Galaxy Tab Screen look that nice or uncluttered. Now it is cluttered and your widgets take the space they do on a phone .... Because now with Jelly Bean the Samsung Galaxy Tab has a phone interface. Settings and notifications are seperate. Screenshot is now a two handed process. Those are just a couple of the changes that have robbed me of my tablet. A week ago I would have given a 5 now 2.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: jelly bean upgrade
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Galaxy Tab 2.0 is Excellent
on January 31, 2013
Posted by: OCurwen
Expertise:Intermediate
I was given this as a present. How did I choose it? I touched all the tablets at an electronics store; the amazing graphics and speed of the processor won me over. My wife has an ipad, and the Galaxy is much more superior, I feel. Plus, the stereo sound is awesome, as well as the ability to change types of sound while watching movies, etc.
After watching HD movies on this tablet, I don't want to watch videos on tv, nor on any other device, and the 10" screen is much better than a piddly little 7" or less screen!

Loved it for 3 months then it died

This like the other 15 samsung products is Great, that is until it died after only 3 months of very light use.
Most of my other samsung products are 3 to 7 years old without a problem so i was very sad to have this break so quick and have to replace it.
