Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 now available at bargain price
We have seen a number of cheaper budget Android tablets being made available to consumers in the last few weeks from the likes of Argos and Tesco in the UK, but now we have news of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 that is now available at a bargain price of below £100.
While Samsung may have provided consumers with the Galaxy Tab 3 this year, those that may want a more cheaply priced Android tablet PC may be interested in the older Galaxy Tab 2. UK retailer Asda is now selling the 7-inch Wi-Fi only Samsung Galaxy 2 for only £99.
The device may not have all the bells and whistles as the latest version of the Nexus 7 but it does feature a 7-inch LCD capacitive touchscreen display at a resolution of 600 x 1024 at a 170ppi pixel density. This is powered by dual core processor clocked at 1GHz and coupled with 1GB of RAM.
On board storage for the £99 Asda offering comes in at 8GB but this is expandable by a further 32GB via microSD card, and camera wise we have a 3.1-megapixel rear facing camera capable of 720p video capture at 30fps, while around the front we have a VGA shooter for video conferencing and self-portraits.
The device is listed as having the Android Ice Cream Sandwich operating system but this has since been upgraded to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, and there is a 4,000 mAh battery supplying the juice.
Do you think this is a good deal?

At that price, it’s excellent. Curry’s still offering it at £120 so will wait to see if any of the other big retailers follow Asda’s lead before taking the plunge.
Offer ends 1st Nov 2013. Bought one tonight for the hubby.
Cheers Julie. Local Asda said it received 18 on Saturday but all sold with no guarantee they’ll be receiving anymore. Will order it now to be sure 🙂
£99 online with currys then pick it up from the store.
Out of stock already
Back in stock available to order. Will be dispatched in a couple of days
Bought one today from Asda £99-00 plus for another £19-99 your can insure it for another 2 years. Great buy at that price
I have owned one of these since last year and can say I am very happy with everything about it.
