As I was looking on Google for the official 4.2 jellybean,I read that Samsung will give 4.2 to stinking old first gen galaxy tab 10.1 and other variants.
Isnt it is unfair to us that our 1 year newer tabs end on official 4.2,and the first gen tabs end on 4.2 too.
I think that Samsung should give at least 1 more year of support,because by this,we should have bought the gtab-it is cheaper,and it basically has the same specs as the tab 2,
Here is a list
Galaxy tab(2011,July):ends on 4.2
Galaxy tab(2012,May):ends on 4.2
List of releases(tablet and phone)
Galaxy tab-galaxy s2(both have dual core)
Galaxy tab 2-galaxy s3(tab 2 is dual core,s3 is quad-core)
Shouldn't tablets be even better then phones?
What is the use of a quad core on a phone,which was intended only for calls and music.
Tablets were intended for games,watching videos,reading e-books...
I hope that someone could explain the solution of this question to me.

So true
It is all rubbish
Why does Samsung do this
4.3 and 5.0 must be ported to the second generation
Then what would be the difference between the two generations
This means no enhancement in two years.....

Quad core use is mainly for multitasking purposes. Don't limit the phone's use on calling and music only, it varies on the user on how he would like to utilize his phone.
But then I aggree with you, at least let the newer gen of grab support much more longer. One of the maim reason why I left apple, is because they disregard their old models fast, forces its users to upgrade phone
They should support us for more...!

The problem is not the neccesary hardware to move newer versions of android, is touchwiz,even the galaxy S4 has lag with touchwiz.
This tab will have 2 por more years of support because of the devolopers.

I really like Samsung, but, the bigger they become the small we become.
Man, you people are such whiners. You know why they're ending support for the Tab 2 on 4.2? Because 4.3 isn't even out yet. And what's that about the S3 being more powerful? Of course it's gonna be more powerful, it's their flagship phone! If you want powerful, why didn't you buy the Note tablets, not this budget crap?
FFS the P3110 is $249 at most and the S3 is $599, don't expect top quality. Phones can be used for gaming too. Also, more cores doesn't always mean more power. In short, stop complaining, you know nothing about Samsung.

Wrong. Phones can be used, and are used for much more than calls and music. Tablets shouldn't be "better" than phones by any reasonable logic -- they are just different type of devices.

What solution? From user's perspective (including you, me, other guys), there is no solution, period. All your complaints and demands like "they should do this", "they must do that" will do absolutely nothing. All manufacturers are, and always will be planning releases and support cycles for their products to maximize profits. As long as there is demand for new products (which is always), some old ones will inevitably be ditched to give way to the new ones. Fact of life, sorry. The only thing that could prompt some changes in the support model is a noticeable part of a user base switching to the competitors. Do you see that happening? I don't.

I didnt buy this device, I got it as a present,and if i didnt get it, I would get a nexus 10 (but i guess that life isnt fair),and the fact that the gen 2 of the tab didnt make any big jumps (gs and gs2 have a big difference between them! Same for s2 and s3) isnt bright.I am not blaming Samsung, but I am shocked how they treat the customers.Their support is better then SONY, every company is better then SONY when it comes to support for the customers.But if they made themselves even better by giving more support to the newer devices, more people would turn to SAMSUNG when they would buy a phone or any other device
Tablet ,by many people I encountered on the internet,is basically a touch screen PC with android, which is a lot cheaper then the average spec PC with at least windows 7.
Then tell me.If the PHONE is used for more things, what is a TABLET used for?
The name PHONE is used for a device that should be useful for texting, calling, writing notes, and other basic functions.Tablets are the extension for gaming, watching videos, drawing,easier browsing trough the internet, and other complex functions.Otherwise there is no reason for the existence of them.
You cant really enjoy a hq long-lenght video on 4 inches, can you?
Yes, phones are more practical, and they are used more.But if a company decides to make something, then the logical thing is to make something good, a big difference between the older version of the product and the new one.
Then my conclusion is that the companies made a bigger toy version of the phone.A toy called "tablet PC".

No, just no. Stop limiting phones to just calling and texting. Both can play games, both can be used as a media player. To be honest the main reason I wanted my first android phone was to play games on it.
You want real support? Buy Google, not Samsung or HTC or Sony or Motorola.

They turned a normal phone in to a toy for your kind, for people who want to play games on a phone.if you want to kill the time while waiting for something, read a book instead.how can you even play any game on a 3 inch phone? You have to be 13 max, otherwise you wont be able to do anything in games on those phones, because big fingers restrain you from doing that.
If you cant afford to play good games on a good pc, try working for it, dont destroy your sight by playing games on a small screen almost every day.
Read more carefully before trying to act smart.
I GOT THIS TABLET AS A GIFT, BUT I CANT SELL IT BECAUSE IT IS A GIFT FROM A FRIEND, A BEEING THAT YOU OBVIOUSLY DONT KNOW OF.
I had the money, but didnt buy a nexus 10, as I already had another tablet.Sony is the worst company, I know that because I own a Sony device.
And you have a phablet, not a tablet.
Many of my friends only use their phones when they are outside, for calls,texting, taking pictures,and not for gaming -.-

Ok, I understand Samsung flooding the market with new devices everyday and of every size, but Im not sure I understand this..
Nearly Identical spec to tab plus and tab 2 7, should have called it the Tab 1.9, its such a step backwards.
http://goo.gl/fb/QBoEI
maybe they used up all their high-end processors, RAM and screens? so they made this out of scraps?
Probably still haven't got the earpiece volume right either
Are joking samsung? Just by changing the looks doesnt make it better than our TAB PLUS! Yeah im really proud of our tab.. same specs? plus have a better front camera.. they should have increased the ram and the resolution as well.. well.. thats tab 3 for you.. just like what we say about tab 2.. not because it has a higher number.. it will be better than the TaB PLUS..

The gt plus didn't sell very well, eventhough it's a good tab.
Now Samsung tries to sell it again, with a different name, a different body, and two modifications.
The funniest is they may sell a lot of this "new" tab, because everything is a matter of marketing. Most people don't buy because of the specs but because of the color, the general aesthetics, and of course the advertising and the marketing around it.
So go for it Samsung, play with the people's braindeadness and take their money, they are all too willy to surrender it to you with a smile

+1 big words and ofc true
The Plus didn't sell well because of the cost. The 3 probably will just because it will be priced at about what the Tab 2 was priced at, but man, that thing is hideous.
I may be wrong but I'd say it's not a very good sign for JB on our device.
Remember last year when we were all awaiting ICS? They released the tab 2 that had ICS out of the box and left us to wait, maybe hoping that some of us would have bought their shiny tab 2.
See what I mean? Seems like with this tab 3 running JB out of the box we're facing what the historians call a recurrent phenomenon in history:cyclops:
I hope I will be proven wrong though, I'm tired of ICS...

I have sold my s3 and got a note 2 since december from last year.
The reason i bought such a huge phone was for the s pen. It helped me in college for taking notes, but then ive bought an ipad which can work for the same purpose, except without the s pen.
Nowadays im just not finding the note 2 practical for everyday usage. Its just too big.
So now im Thinking of selling it and either buying either an s4, htc one or xperia z.
Can someone give me feedback on those phones?
I love the design of sony phones, but i also cant live without the features of samsung phones

I can't think of any reason the s4 wouldn't be a good choice.
I would recommend the HTC one. Reason why is because you're coming from a note 2 which is pretty much the same as an S4 minus a couple of features and the 1080p display. The Xperia Z would be a very bad choice as it has sub par battery life, lags and the display is really a letdown. The HTC one stands out with is fantastic display, it's flawless performance, the amazing boomsound, the phone looks beautiful and dev support is excellent.
At the end of the day everything is a matter of preference but do yourself a favor, whatever phone you choose make sure it's between the S4 or HTC one, the XZ is really not that good. I wanted to also recommend the optimus G pro but you said you want something smaller. Cheers.
Sent from my Stealth Black HTC One using Tapatalk 2
Neither the HTC One or S4. If you are thinking of getting a phone for long term, you would be better of waiting for a Snapdragon 800 CPU phone to be released soon instead of getting a Snapdragon 600 S4 or One.
i'll earn money to buy it
Do you require the use of a MicroSD? If the answer is yes, then you can forget about the HTC One. (Say all you want about how it has 64GB internal storage. MTP is so horrendously slow and unstable that copying a 3GB Bluray file simply doesn't work.)
If you can, wait for September. The IFA will be hosted early september, and many will be announing their new phones there. Most are switching to an S800, which is more powerful.
If you can't wait, I'd suggest going with the S4.
Im not really in a big hurry, but what new flag ships are rumored to be shown?
Since you really like S Pen feature. Galaxy S4 should be your choice.

I'm planning to buy the Atrix 4g or Atrix 2, They are 150$ and 190$ respectively on Amazon now. Good hardware specs at a low price. Hence the choice.
Which one should I go for? I know there are issues with gameloft games playing on qHD displays.
Are there hacks to play gameloft games like Nova 2 and Nova 3?
I prefer the Atrix 4G because of the larger internal memory and battery size, but also want my choice to support gameloft games.
Please suggest.
Tegrea 2 is a COMPLETE TOTAL POS .. so if you have to chose between those two go for the A2 that runs on OMAP4430 ..
but IMO ... look for a used S2 or something.. unlocked bootloader so there is no major problems with custom roms (for example there is not HDMI support in any custom rom for the A2) and official 4.1.2 JB .
btw .. battery size by itself means nothing .
I agree with the above.
To add to it I'll say don't waste your money on a Motorola device. They are highly overrated. And imo, the worst devices available.
Samsung gs2 for that price would be decent. Or check for used devices. Might find a nexus 4 for a little more.

Free is my favorite 4 letter word so if I got one for free I wouldn't complain. If I'm going to pay for a new phone, though, I don't want a carrier subsidized, locked down phone. I don't even care if it's locked but can be unlocked. If it's locked at the point of sale, it won't be sold to me.
Brought to you by time and relative dimensions in space.
Thanks for the replies, guys!
So, even for the low price (Atrix - 150$, Atrix 2 - 185$) I shouldn't take the plunge?
iamezio, scared to go for used ones (Samsung Galaxy S2). Not sure how the quality would be if buying online. Checked new ones on Amazon. It was showing 230$. Felt it is still expensive for a model which came 2 years back
To be honest if the bootloader were unlockble and the support didn't die with ICS it would be a great buy .. but right now i don't think it is .
you can look at something like a Galaxy Nexus too .. there is alot of phones in the price range that would do the job.
Thanks iamezio!
You are talking about the Galaxy Nexus S (single core) or the Galaxy Nexus I9250 (dual core). The first one is 210$ and the latter is 250$+

Check http://celltraderonline.com or possibly even ebay.
While the devices will be used, the folks are very trustworthy, and most phones are in very good shape. It is where I would go to purchase a phone without hesitation. Might not be as easy as amazon, but you'll get a much better device for the money.

hi!
All ok?!
I was long time off the Android world, but when back I think... Samsung is crazy? Someone else had this feeling?
I mean, before it was well denfined, Series S and Note Top Levels, Ace Series and W Intermediate and Series Y and 5 entry levels.
After the Y Series transformed into various models. And now, Samsung launches models from different configurations, sizes, android versions etc with little or no difference..
No have more definition ? I mean, Galaxy S 2 Lite (in Brazil; In rest of world is S Advanced) , S Duos, fame, Duos, Gran duos, Yes, pocket, Express, Win, Mini S3, S4 Mini etc..
Just I think that these new definitions are horribles?!
If we compare the S Duos and Ace2, they have basically the same features, there's no way to differentiates them.
And What do you think? Agree with me?
Yeah Samsung is going a bit crazy. To me they a flooding the market with too many device. However, a pro with this is everyone can get a device at any price point from them, but a con is that they a producing far to many low end devices and not enough mid-high end ones lol

It's so hard-work create new modifications, for example, for Galaxy S, Galaxy S Advanced and Galaxy S Duos. And All is S model.
This makes the community Leave alone the little used models .

This actually happen because they want only one thing, money.
More devices = More money
That's my point of view.

I think that Samsung is getting similar to Motorola. Many models with similar names and few modification between them.

I agree with that. What's the point of having 15 versions of the same phone lol. They could at least make them similar enough in that you only have to change 1-2 lines of code to get a rom workng on it sheesh.

non-sense
They've definitely exploded with their devices. I completely understand and agree man. But hey, now there's something for everyone lol!
It is just nonsense to ahve that much devices. Even the old ACE 2 came in two flavours - with and without NFC. Technically speaking that should not make that much of a difference sinde most chipsets contain all features - but not all of them are enabled.
In my eyes 3 models a year should be enoguh (High-,Mid- and Entry-Level). And of course there should be that 2 sim-card-Addon (maybe build-in or as an expansion card).
But that will be a dream ...
It's marketing. Samsung sells phones, so they launch new models, even they will not be faster or with less features.
Welcome to the hard world of business... hehehe.
i agree
yeah i agree with you
I think Samsung's crazy for having that physical button on their tablets.

I believe Samsungs reason for this is marketing. If you ever want a large selection of devices with a variety of specs. they are the one to turn too!

I think our tablet is officially dead and this forum as well. Now that many new cheaper tablets have emerged I don't think people use this anymore. Mine was gathering dust since ages.
Do you still use your tablet and for what purposes?

my wife already adopted my tab..She's using it more than I do.
I still use it when I go out of town trips just for GPS and data connectivity.
This is my phone.. so i still use this "dead tablet"

My p6210 is in Canada. We are still on 3.2 without an official OS update.
I recently updated to 4.1.2 following one of the suggestions from this site. It is nice to have the refresh. I wish it had been sooner. I would have preferred an official update rather rely on the benovelance of strangers on the internet. I'll never buy a samsung again.
For now, this tab still does what I need it to do, so i will squeeze a bit more life out of it. Also as it gets older, i am less adverse to taking risks with it. I may experiment with these new roms. If it bricks, i will buy a Nexus 7 or an Ipad Mini. Sorry, i want timely updates and not an obsoleted device after a few months.
Still on stock waiting for update... Use it for travel, GPS, and plan on using it for accepting credit card payments.
It's still my DD tablet. With 4.1.2 (stock just rooted, if I recall) its doing everything I need. Movies on the road, books, email, web and games.
Certainly drawn to the quad-core goodness on the market, but not enough to open my wallet. I'd rather go with a Nexus, but I'll probably stay with a Samsung for the micro-sd slot. Makes be crazy that Google went the Apple route and gouges you for memory. 64gb card, for $50 = 80GB tablet.
Still a fine piece of kit. Mine is rooted and has JB 4.1.2 (UK/Ireland version) installed along with CWM Recovery. I agree that the tendency of many OEMs to not provide a microSD slot is a PITA...in fact, for me it's a show-stopper.
ye, it is [*] ;_;
only Daniel support u, god bless him :>
not surely dead i think, our tablet still stands out from other new samsung tablets such as tab 3

Too true!
I still use mine as my primary tablet. It still is better than those cheaper tablets out there (plus better than the Tab7.0 v2).

I agree when comparing to the Tab 2 7.0 and Tab 3 7.0. Having recently acquired a Tab 3 8.0, however, that device is definitely a step up - better specs, multi-window feature, etc. and very nearly the same overall footprint.

Oh yes of course, tab 3 8.0 is better, i think the tab 8.0 is the successor of 7.7. Just my opinion :victory:
Far from dead for me.
I still use it daily.
Use it for mail, calendar, tasks, timesheets, notetaking, calculator, banking, ...
Do the occasional gaming and ebook reading.
I hardly leave home without this device.
I love the 7" formfactor because it so easily stores away.
I don't think I will be trading it in any time soon. The quad core systems are mainly interesting for gaming.
The only thing that might sway me to another device is a higher resolution (interesting for some websites), but devices with better resolution are usually a lot more expensive.
Thanks to people who still believe in our tab
Some may think it is dead but I think if anybody wants this tablet not to die go hit the thanks button on this thread because as long as we have people developing we stay alive.

To me this makes me believe it still alive and well.
I have only had my tab for 14 months Still in warranty but i would like to see people who have this tab support people who are making stuff for us in there own free time (like devid801 ) and only ask for a simple thanks that uses a few seconds of our free time.
My biggest concern is shrinking inbuilt battery!

I'm running 4.4 Kit Kat on mine. Crazy this tablet still has development and people are still supporting it. So its not dead yet. It still has some life breathing in it.
