Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1-inch Review

16 GB (GT-P5210)     See other variants reviews Score: 64.7 / 100

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1-inch is a very solid Android tablet launched some years ago, in 2013, having a high speed Dual-Core CPU clocking at 1.6 gigahertz, a huge 10.1 inches multi touch display, a 3 MP back side camera and a 1.3 mega-pixels front-facing camera. We will get a better idea about this device's characteristics when we get into deeper details.

The Tab 3 10.1-inch comes with an extremely powerful Dual-Core processing unit clocking at 1.6 GHz, bundled in a Intel Atom chip with only 1 GB RAM memory which is a little bit poor considering its impressive CPU. This device has an interesting 16 GB internal memory and an external memory slot, allowing you to install a couple hundred applications without running out of space.

The Tab 3 10.1-inch feels much lighter than what you expect from a tablet like this. This tablet is a very compact tablet, taking into consideration it presents a 10.1" display and it is only 9.57 inches long and 6.93 inches wide. This device is very slim and comfortable, with a thickness of just 0.31". Samsung made this tablet in two different colors: brown and white.

This device includes a nice 800 x 1280 10.1-inches screen, providing this tablet with a regular graphic quality. Its screen uses TFT capacitive technology, and has multi-touch detection.

This tablet is equipped with two cameras, a 3 MP back facing camera and a 1.3 mega-pixels front camera. It also captures videos in HD 1280x720 at 30 frames per second. Additionally, the camera features geo tagging.

This tablet comes with a 6800 mAh big capacity Li-Ion non-removable battery that can keep this device running for many hours without charging it at all. An issue to consider is that the Tab 3 10.1-inch's battery is non-replaceable so you can't throw it away and buy a new one when it starts losing capacity, though with so much capacity you will probably buy a new tablet device before that happens.

This device has wifi connectivity (although it can't be provided to other devices around, as a mobile mobile hotspot), 4G LTE high speed connection type and also HSPA+ internet connection, which is a lower speed 4G technology and fast 3G internet connection, using HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This tablet works with a SIM card for GSM carriers.

This tablet also includes some useful characteristics like Infrared Blaster, Bluetooth and GPS Navigation, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

This tablet is being sold for $ 370, a really high price for this type of tablet device. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1-inch is very appropiate no matter whether you want this tablet to take tons of pictures, want a work tablet, want a tablet to play lots of games or want this tablet device mainly for social networks and internet browsing.
