Yes. the quad cores are missing from this one and Galaxy Tab2 10.1.
So we should expect one more 10.1 with quad core

Want this. Want this bad.

I want this but the screen resolution is bumming me down.. wheres the 11.6 thats rumored to be 2560x1600?
The split screen feature is nice though, hopefully someone can mod it to run both video player and web browser side by side!

I'm not impressed... Hope the 11.6 gets announced..

I liked the part where he touched the back button and it took two full seconds for it to actually go back.
And nothing of value was lost.

Guess you've never used an Exynos device (Galaxy S2 or Note). Samsung usually doesn't have its drivers optimized until its about ready to release and even afterwards they still manage to draw out more power.

I don't think I can justify this as a worthy upgrade from Tab 10.1. CM9 should happily carry me for a while, at least until a Nexus tablet appears sometime this year.

I had a Galaxy S2 and a Galaxy Note and now Im using a Galaxy Tab 7.7, it takes samsung a while to get things really going probably due to touchwiz, pre production software barely differs from production up until 4-6 months. No everyone sees it like you do

Drivers are the main difference from pre-production and final release. Galaxy S2 benched poorly and seemed laggy when it debuted last year but when it was released it had the best SoC and was the smoothest Android phone.
The GN 10.1 should have similar performance to the original GN assuming it uses the same Exynos 4210.

The Note 10.1 has a 1.4GHz Exynos processor. Getting away from Teg2 is reason enough to consider it even if everything else was the same. I love the idea of being able to take real notes in meetings so I might pick one up if it's available in the next 4-6 weeks. If it's later than that I'll wait for the 11.6.

I got my S2 1 day before release in my country and it came with the KF1 firmware, TBH I never noticed any 'lag' or slowdowns.. zero difference on my end upto the KG5 firmware which was the firmware in Sept-Oct. Well YMMV, some devices just run smoother than others even if they are both of the same model, based on experience.

Galaxy Tab. Buy or wait?????

Hi folks!
So, my question is:
Do I buy a Galaxy Tab 10.1 or do I wait a bit more so I buy a next generation Galaxy Tab with quad core and stuff (are the releasing it soon?).
Galaxy Tab 10.1 will receive ICS?
What would you recommend?
I know there is another post about this problem. But the answers were from June. I want to know now in November. What do you guys think?
Thanks!
If samsung can assure you that when you buy a 10.1 you will not get one with the "newton rings" then buy it.
For me I would not recommend samsung......sorry folks.....

What you want to buy is totally up to you, but as for updates, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 *will* receive the Ice Cream Sandwich upgrade, which will bring a whole heap of new benefits.
And there will always be people like bongski who may have had bad experiences, but rest assured that of the three Samsungs I've bought, I've never had a problem with one.
Also, for future reference the Galaxy Tab 10.1 does have its own forum here on XDA.

I agree. As much trouble that I have had with Samsung support is just amazing. I had the battery problem and finally had to open up my tab and disconnect the battery to fix it Samsung knows about this problem and should have had a recall. This does not bid well for Samsung.

I agree. Read all you can from the xda 10.1 forum particularly the problems encountered,then make your own decision.....
Thanks, guys!
Sorry, I didn't find the 10.1 forum....
I think I'll buy it!
plenty of newer tablets coming out... just wait a bit... personally, i WAS holding my breath for the tab 7.7, but i passed out...
Some if not most 10.1 suffer lag and you will probably need to root and load custom roms. I have my brothers tab and have not rooted it yet and I can't stand the lag. Sometimes I feel like I'm back to single core. I think for the most part its Honeycomb combined with touchwiz. I'm gonna give it back to my brother and wait for the Transformer prime with quad core. I'm sure ICS will fix most of the lag but I don't know if I can rely on Samsung to get ICS anytime soon. I also don't like that it doesnt have an sd card slot.
For now Ill be using my Samsung 7 inch tab till the prime comes.
Buy now or wait for the new technology? Well, if you always wait for the technology you'll never buy anything!
I'd wait and see if Samsung get over their Ipad cloneing phase...
Not that the 10.1 is a POS ipad but the fact that you can't put in an sd card and have more memory is a little too apple for me... That was the most compelling thing about the GTab, it had expandable memory...
I don't see the point of getting a more higher powered beefy machine that uises apps that are 2-5 times more memory dependant on installation and having NO memory to use, not to mention songs, movies and ebooks... What was Samsung thinking?

If it's an updated 10.1 with Exynos, ICS, and S-Pen (and 3G) I'll probably get it. I like the idea of using it for notes in meetings and even if you don't the display will be ten times more precise than what we have now. I hope they leave the form factor the same so all the existing accessories still work/fit. The Exynos 5250 which is supposed to power the 11.6 isn't going in to mass production until Q2. That means the earliest the 11.6 will be seen is Q3. So if the Note 10.1 comes out in March it'll be a nice upgrade for six-ish months. If it's not out by March and/or still uses Teg2 I'll keep the 10.1 and wait for the 11.6.

Samsung unveils Galaxy Tab 2 (7.0), offers Ice Cream Sandwich on a seven-inch platter

Samsung unveils Galaxy Tab 2 (7.0), offers Ice Cream Sandwich on a seven-inch platter
It looks like Samsung has just taken the wraps off its latest tablet offerings, with the Galaxy Tab 2 (7.0) -- an ICS-laced follow-up to the company's original seven-incher. Available in both 3G and WiFi varieties, this redux doesn't mark a huge departure from its predecessor, packing a 1GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM and a 1024 x 600 LCD. The big changes, however, come in the software department, with the Galaxy Tab 2 shipping with Android 4.0 straight out of the box. Other than that, you'll find a three-megapixel rear-facing camera, a VGA shooter up front, Bluetooth capabilities, and HSPA+ connectivity. No word yet on pricing or availability, but it's worth noting that we first saw this announcement hit Samsung's RSS feed earlier this morning, and it appears to have been pulled since then. It all looks awfully official to us, but when it becomes officially official, we'll be sure to update this post accordingly. Until then, be sure to head past the break for a shot of its backside.

They're yet to mention whether this or the new Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 have the Tegra 2 chip, even if I didn't have my original Tab there's no way I'd buy it with a Tegra 2.

Really, ohhh come on Samsung why are you doing this, this is an inferior model compared to the galaxy 7.7 the only thing it has going for is ICS which the 7.7 doesn't at the moment. This is why Samsung is playing catch-up to Apple even though I deeply believe that the tabs are supperior but churning all these different models for what? Just concentrate on one single model and make it the best device available.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 Plus

http://androidos.in/2012/10/samsung...-01e-to-go-on-sale-beginning-oct-25-in-japan/
Isn't that something? Still, one would think an extra 1GB of RAM (in addition to the 16GB additional storage) and upgraded cameras would have been possible.
As they are releasing a slightly updated 7.7 hopefully it will get jellybean or key lime pie and in turn the original 7.7
My Tab 7.7 already 32GB... and I don't care about camera and LTE thus my question is
1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm vs current Exynos 1.4Ghz dual core, which one is faster ?
Aren't Exynos better than the Qualcomm?

Depends. Since its Qualcomm, I'm betting cyanogenmod support will be good, unlike exynos

Apparently the Exynos benches better than the Qualcomm on Geekbench(1197 versus 912), which is an older chipset that seems to be the same one on the Samsung Galaxy S II. So maybe it's a step down in speed?

It looks to me like most performance upgrades are marginal at best. I would see no reason to buy this model if you own the previous one.

I think there are a couple of other thread discussing Jelly Bean for the 7.7. My assumption would be that the 7.7 Plus would almost certainly come with JB.

Not much improvement for 7.7 Plus. I really think a suitable upgrade after 7.7 would be a quadcore tablet.
Don't wait for official Jellybean from Samsung. Just try custom ROM like Paranoid Android.
Lets not forget that the original galaxy note is getting Jellybean, and its exactly the same specs as our beloved Tab 7.7 so
either Samsung might release a jellybean version for us of I dev can possibly port that rom to our tab 7.7!!!!!!!:cyclops
Very happy that they've got a successor because if my 7.7 ever broke I'd be really disappointed to go to a regular LCD screen. The OLED screen is the best quality screen I own!

will the S2 Exynos (2015)edition get Nougat?

What do you think, will samsung limit Nougat on the S2 to the newer Snapdragon version of the tablet?
I dont think Samsung is going to have Nougat for S2. That will be in the Tab S3.
Yes, it's been reported that the T810 is testing and will be released soon.

The rumours about Nougat is getting louder:
https://www.sammobile.com/2016/12/19/galaxy-tab-s2-running-nougat-surfaces-on-gfxbench/
My galaxy tab s2 wifi only (t710) is still in 5.0.2 on sammobile but thanks to flashing, I was able to get MM. Now I am worried that my tab s2 will not get a proper nougat update because the update rolls out only to LTE versions.
According to this source (https://news.samsung.com/global/samsung-begins-rollout-of-android-7-0-nougat) the "Galaxy Tab S2 (LTE unlock)" will be included in the Android 7.0 update rollout for Samsung devices this year. Seems legit, considering it's from Samsung themselves
I think the S2 will get Nougat. It's just a case of when and how good it will be?
However, I also think that will be it. Absolutely no chance at all of getting Android 8.
Given my experience with Samsung tablets, I'm not even clear T813 will see an update to 7.x.
That would be 2 in a row for me (poorly supported Samsung tablets), and probably my last purchase from them.

The problem is, who else is making good spec Android tablets with Amoled screens? From my point of view, MM is running well and has been for the last 6 months. A Nougat upgrade would be nice, (especially for the multi window mode,) but I wouldn't loose any sleep if it wasn't updated. They do need to release a recent security update though.
As my experience with the One Plus 3 has been so good, I'd like to see them shake Samsung up by entering the tablet market. I know it wont happen but I can dream. :angel:

It would be a great thing for the tablet market to have OP enter. (maybe not great for the OP bottom line, as the tablet market seems to be stagnant.. still I think there is room for a Nexus-like tablet.. and Google seems to have abandoned that niche)

So it begs the question, what specs and how much would you be prepared to pay?
For me, take a OP3, put it in the tab S2 body and I'd happily pay £400 (~$450) all day long. Of course, it would have to be running OOS.

Out of curiosity, how much did you have to give for it? I got my 32GB T813 as an impulse buy for $399 the other day, and while I've seen used ones for less, it felt like a decent deal for a new unit.
