Been tasked , by my dad , with getting his missis a tablet for Christmas . I have a Nexus 7 , which I love , but I'm concerned she may find it a bit small for web browsing and spotted that the Galaxy tab has got £50 cashback at the moment. This brings it under the £200 budget I've been given but I have no experience of using one and wondered if anyone on here can recommend them , or not .
Its main use will be browsing and viewing photos , no gaming .

Cheers

Using one now, wife's got one as well. Haven't any experience of other tabs but have been pleased with it. Great for web, email and iPlayer. If I want to do more I'll fire up the laptop or Xbox.

I sent mine back to Amazon, I found it a dog. Incredibly laggy when doing anything at all; typing and browsing were both miserable and infuriating. And I found Samsung's UI tweaks were a backward step over the vanilla Android UI. Nowhere near as good as a Nexus or an iPad, both of which are great.

Also using one here. Love it, does everything I need it to do and nice interface and responsive screen (unlike the horrible acer iconica I had previously!)

More than capable bit of kit for browsing and viewing photos.

My daughter has one and loves it. Seems nippy enough. She also has a Samsung Galaxy phone so the UI doesn't seem to bother her. On the occasions I've used it, the UI hasn't got in my way either (I use an HTC phone)
