A budget 7″ tablet with 3G capabilities, it serves as a good all in one device but is a bit sluggish. Small and mobile, yet provides good real estate for reading and browsing the web.

The Good
- Great battery life especially if Samsung’s power savings enabled. With 3G on all day will leave the office with 60+% at 5+
- All in one device having dual cameras for typical photo/video taking (rear camera) as well as video calling (front camera)
- microSD card slot and USB-OTG for added expandability and capabilities
- Phone calls can be taken privately by holding the tablet up to your ear (without the need for a headset)
- Tablet UI allows more information to be displayed on screen
- Flash is supported in the Samsung browser
The Bad
- Fix focus rear camera (macro shots not possible). Also no camera flash
- Screenshot button that is too easily pressed (can be fixed if rooted)
- Proprietary connector
- A big sluggish and not a totally smooth experience
The Ugly
- 1 GHz Dual core with 1GB of RAM isn’t enough to run the Android 4.0 smoothly (at least with TouchWiz on top)
