The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (7.0)
not only has one of the most long and confusing names for a tablet, but
it’s also packing quite a punch for its extremely affordable $249 price
tag. Much more than the Amazon Kindle Fire and the Barnes & Noble
Nook Tablet, if we are to trust Samsung.
In
reality, it’s clear that Samsung offers more of the core Android
experience - there is TouchWiz, of course, but it’s a much lighter skin
than what Amazon and B&N offer. So it all comes down whether you
want a full-blown Android tablet, or a gateway to Amazon and B&N's
ecosystems. In the latter case, nothing can beat the Kindle Fire and
Nook Tablets.
But let's see what Samsung found
necessary to point out to highlight the advantages of its Galaxy Tab 2
(7.0) over the competition in that price segment. In three detailed
tables, the Korean company shows how its second-gen Tab shines with its
cameras allowing it to perform video calls, but also with its expandable
storage, unlimited access to applications via the Google Play store,
the latest of Android, support for Bluetooth and GPS, as well as the
tablet's light weight.
If those are not
convincing enough, Samsung also stresses how the Tab 2 support much more
media formats and gives a detailed comparison of all the features you'd
miss if you pick the competition. Well, it definitely needs that kind
of advertizing given how well the Kindle Fire sells. Which one of the
three would you pick?
