Samsung galaxy tab 3 10.1: Opinions

ronanc1000

Anyone has any experience with this tablet? Either want to get this or the Nexus 7. The galaxy tab has an advantage though with the expandable memory as I primary want to watch movies and play my music etc.
Is there any other android tab options out there? What's the verdict on the tab 3 10.1?


Cheers!

Got one before Christmas and as a result bought another for the OH as a pressie.

Good screen (the nexus is better though), fairly impressive battery life. Has the usual Samsung bloatware on board so I'm waiting for a custom ROM to become available. The biggest issue is just 1GB of RAM but you just need to clear out running apps if things begin to slow down a little.

There are custom ROMs available already, check out the XDA forums.

So I just saw after a quick search. I want OmniROM though so I may have to wait a little while.

Quick question, probably not just related to this device but all android devices;

Is there a way to display a bookmarks bar on the stock internet browser with all my bookmarks permanently on display?

just bought the tab 10' tab today & am well impressed. It works very well over a mi/fi 3G connection. I was disappointed to find the Samsung apps pre loaded as well, like on my old galaxy ace, they do nothing except be a waste of (precious) internal memory..

watch this Galaxy!
