Galaxy Tab 2 Tablet

tenntrucker · May 25, 2012

I picked up one of these at wally world the other day, and am really loving it! I'm wifing off my droid2 with Foxfi and having great sucess. It's a droid tablet with a 7" screen, so it will run most of the apps I have on my phone. I have found a few apps not compatible. It streams movies better than my laptop, my guess is because of the smaller screen. But at $249 it's only about $50 over a good reader. Plus it will do so much more, I give this a :thumbup:

So you'd recommend the galaxy tap 2 for someone looking for a device like a netbook?

tenntrucker · May 25, 2012

Yes, while I've only had around a week, very happy with it. It's proven to be more than what I was expecting.

Thank you! I've been wanting to pick up a tablet for a while and the Galaxy series tablets were on my radar. They've really dropped in price from when they were first released!

I was looking at those the other night at wal mart. Ive decided that I want the bigger one tho. Its a little more pricey but I play a lot of games. Im glad ur enjoying urs and now im all the more eager to get one.

Best of all the New Operating system ICE CREAM SANDWICH is already on or will be loaded automatically, and the screen improvements will be even better, its definetly a great choice.
For a tablet it does everything well.

I believe they have a similar one thats 10" screen for those of you that size matters.......

Hey I don't know if you have one yet or not but there is a stylist that u can buy for the tablets. I got mine at wal mart for $14. They carry them at the truck stops too but there like $20. It works great. I think it will also work on ur phone screen too.

Does the Netflix app work on it?

tenntrucker · Jun 11, 2012

I don't use Netflix, but it came preloaded on it, so my guess is yes.

Got a question about these tablets. What kind of charger is required? Is it like a phone charger? or a laptop charger? I want one and I would like it even better if I didnt need an inverter to charge it.

My codriver has a Samsung galaxy 10 inch. Charges via usb cord like a phone. He loves it, very practical for life over the road.
