Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1-inch Review

3G Only (GT-P5210)     See other variants reviews Score: 65.9 / 100

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1-inch is a very solid Android tablet launched back in 2013, which counts with a huge 10.1 inches multi touch screen, an extremely powerful Dual-Core processing unit clocking at 1.6 GHz, a 3 MP back camera and a 1.3 mega-pixels front camera.

Samsung made the Tab 3 10.1-inch in brown and white. Samsung made a great job making this tablet weight only 18.06 ounces. The Tab 3 10.1-inch is only 9.57 inches long, but it is able to fit a a 10.1" screen. The Tab 3 10.1-inch is just 0.31 inches thick, making its way into the thinnest portable tablets podium.

Samsung ships this tablet with a Intel Atom system chip, holding a very fast Dual-Core CPU speeding at 1600 MHz and only 1 GB RAM memory which is a little disappointing for a tablet this powerful. A great point of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1-inch is its astonishing 32 GB internal memory and a slot for an external memory card, enough to install lots of applications, games, songs, pictures and videos without worrying about filling the tablet.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1-inch includes an average 800 x 1280 10.1" display, which makes all pictures and videos look quite good. Its display uses TFT capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

The Tab 3 10.1-inch features Wi-Fi connection (but it can't provide it to other devices around, as a mobile hotspot), LTE 4G high performance internet connection and also HSPA+ data connection, that is a slower 4G variation and fast 3G data connection, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1-inch uses a SIM card for GSM networks.

This tablet has two cameras, a 3 megapixels back-facing camera and a 1.3 MP front facing camera. It also films videos in HD 1280x720 at 30 fps. To complete the camera, it also includes geo tagging.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1-inch also features a few interesting features such as Infrared Transmitter, Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS Geolocation, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

This tablet counts with a 6800 mAh incredible Li-Ion non-removable battery that provides the Tab 3 10.1-inch an incredibly long battery life. An issue to take into consideration is that this tablet's battery is non-replaceable so you can't change it when it starts to get older, whereas with such a big battery you will probably buy a new tablet before that becomes a real problem.

Samsung offers this device for $ 309, which is not cheap for this type of tablet device. It doesn't matter whether you will use it as a gaming tablet, want a tablet for work, you love taking photos or are looking for a tablet to mostly use social networks and internet browsing, you will probably love this tablet.
