MANILA, Philippines - It’s amazing how much life has changed over the last decade, or even just over the last five years. Technology has revolutionized the way people do even the most basic things. Now there are websites and applications for everything: from navigating our way around town to socializing with our friends.
Today, we need to be able to stay connected wherever we are; for work, for friends and family, or for personal entertainment/information. We need the latest news to always be accessible in an instant.
In this age of multitasking, we need a tool that’s more powerful than a phone, able to both store, create, and share any amount of media, and able to provide information and entertainment literally on call.
Seemingly to this end, Samsung has come up with the Galaxy Tab 2, the successor to their popular line of multimedia tablets. The Galaxy Tab 2 combines the functionality of a computer, smartphone, library, media collection, gaming devices, and so much more in one light, thin, and stylish package.
There’s a sleek, compact seven-inch model that fits in a purse or coat pocket, or an expansive 10.1-inch model to bring a larger-than-life visual experience. Available in both 3G+Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi-only models, the Galaxy Tab 2 allows users to access the Internet no matter where they are.
The Galaxy Tab 2 lets users check mail, watch videos, read an e-book or shop online from a favorite hangout. Coupled with a powerful dual-core processor, the Galaxy Tab 2 lets users stream favorite websites and videos and always stay on top of what’s trending.
Samsung’s newest Tab features a generous expandable internal memory to allow downloads and storage of thousands of photos, documents, movies, and songs. It allows users to send messages, set up video conferences on Skype or Google+, or plan get-togethers with the tablet’s easy-to-use tools.
The Galaxy Tab 2 features both front and rear facing cameras, so that users can snap pictures and upload them to photo-sharing sites like Instagram or Pinterest. It also lets users shoot their own music video and upload it to their own YouTube channel.
The Galaxy Tab 2 runs on the latest Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system and boasts access to the Google Play Store which offers over 400,000 applications to date.
It also lets users choose applications to customize the Galaxy Tab 2 to whatever they want it to be. With certain applications, the Galaxy Tab 2 can be turned into a mobile gaming device, a business advisor, a bedtime book, or even a musical instrument.
And it can be done in convenient and immersive ways. Plus, with more applications getting released each day, the possibilities become virtually endless.
The Galaxy Tab 2 comes in three models: the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0” Wi-Fi with a suggested retail price of P12,990, the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0” 3G+Wi-Fi at P16,990, and the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1” 3G+Wi-Fi at P21,990.
