The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 offers user a good browsing experience through its mostly-stock Android browser. Tabbed browsing makes managing multiple open pages at one time easy, and the pages all render quickly and accurately. The low’ish resolution of the display means that small text is not always entirely sharp, but overall the fast browsing speed and support for HTML video and Adobe Flash make it more than useful.
The Google Play Music application that is loaded onto the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 offers a slick user interface and the ability to play music that is stored “in the cloud,” so you don’t have to worry about loading up each of your devices with your music collection. While you can buy music from the Play Store easily enough, Samsung also offers its own Music Hub app which allows users to purchase songs from the 7Digital store as well. Either way, you’ve got plenty of access to music from the Tab.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 ships with a 4,000mAh battery that can easily power the tablet through a full day of pretty solid use. If you are willing to run the Tab with the display’s brightness set at less than 100 percent, then you can expect to get quite a bit more life out of it from a single charge.
Cons: Low-resolution screen, few tablet apps.
