Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P6210 16GB, Wi-Fi, 7in - Metallic Gray

I really like the tablet. It is a great size. It fits in my jacket pocket. I got it because I was traveling a bunch and wanted something less bulky to take with me for mail. I knew little about android or tablets. It has turned out much better than I hoped. It combines multiple e-mail accounts. I use it as a Kindle reader and can listen to music while I am doing it. I read many more books because of it and like the fact that I don't have to read over the fold and hold a bulky book. I stream movies for the grandkids with the HDMI adapterand when at the beach where where is not much on the TV.

It was fun learning Android operation and dealing with getting apps. I am a bit of a computer junky so it was fun. For those not so inclined it could be a bit daunting. I got a few Andriod Office apps to see which I liked the best and can now open and edit Office docs and Adobe reader. I am fooling around with video and pictures and file management systems.

I have tried the games but they appear pretty lame. Angry Birds seems a bit childish for an adult, but to each his own. Most of them are of no interest to me so far.

I got the USB host cable and attached an old keyboard and mouse I have for use at the beach. Using the soft keyboard and screen are okay, but this makes it easier when it is my sole e-mail device and I want to input longer messages. I use the power cable to download stuff from my PC to the tablet and use Cheetah Synch Bluetooth connectivity to synch some files between the PC and Tablet. I was surprised I could do so from the other side of the house. I thought Bluetooth had a very short range, but it is obviously long enough to get across my humble abode.

My wife uses it for her email when at the beach and I was concerned that she may struggle with the different method of operation from Windows. She seems to have gotten it pretty quick and while she doesn't like the keyboard, she is making due for the short periods we use it.

Great product. I was able to upgrade to Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) through Samsung Kies without any problem. My main reason for purchase was to listen to music. I was tired of CD's.
You can listen to hundreds of radio stations around the world.
Plus Android market has thousands of great applications. I was pleasantly surprised with navigation system. In my humble opinion the Google map and navigation are the best on the market. Once you get your destination through WIFI you do not need any additional connection. To get other destination, just tether through you cell phone if you have no WIFI around you. Yes, I can get navigation on my cell phone, but I like to use bigger screen of this tablet.

This factory refurbished unit was in perfect condition. Bright display, incredible sound quality. WiFi connected right away to my WAP. Setup was easy. Shipped fast. An outstanding value. Only the users guide was a photocopy. No big deal there, as Samsung has a full manual online.

How did I survive as a road warrior without it? I can't believe the difference between carrying a laptop and my new tablet. Going through airports, security checkpoints, customs, etc is just a breeze with the tab.

I really enjoy some of the features such as tilt and zoom, the dual side camera and the high fidelity sound it delivers with the earplugs on.

Of course it has limitations but so far it cuts the cheese for e-mail and Internet browsing.

I simply LOVE IT!

To this day, I have not found a more well rounded 7 inch tablet than the Galaxy 7.0 Plus. The Ir Remote is a very functional add on that basically ties a Harmony remote into your tablet. The Exynos Processor is the same used in the Galaxy S II and international Galaxy Note phones - and the Mali GPU routinely outpaces anything from the Tegra 2 camp. The screen resolution in 1024x600, with pretty vivid color and decent viewing angles.

My only gripes with the this tab is the proprietay connector and lack of ICS - although a port of CM( is in progress, Samsung seems to have left this product out to pasture in order to push the Galaxy Tab 2, even though the Plus has better hardware. I would tell any shopper considering the 7 inch Galaxy tab, to first give this one a hard look. It will be on ICS in the very near future - and at that point will mop the floor with the newer version from a performance standpoint - while being cheaper.
