Conclusion: Pass on it

This is not a bad tablet, and if you really want a 10-inch Android tablet, you could do a lot worse. But for the same price, you can get an iPad 2, which has a wider selection of apps, a greater range of accessories, and a clearer upgrade path, making it a far better option for the vast majority of users.

Slimmer than the iPad, it's far and away the nicest Honeycomb tablet to date, and one Android fans shouldn't overlook.

Sleek, sexy, and light, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 gets as close to the iPad 2 as any Android tablet before it.

The Wi-Fi–only Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is the thinnest Honeycomb tablet available, and it's very capable, but its Touchwiz UI means Android updates are in doubt.

Those trying to decide between the iPad 2 and a Honeycomb tablet would do well to give the Tab 10.1 a hard look. I have not run across anything I wanted to do on a tablet that I cannot do with the Tab, so it is a viable alternative to the iPad 2.

Yes, it lacks the ease of wired connectivity other Honeycomb tablets offer, and it doesn’t have a clever battery-equipped Keyboard Dock like the ASUS, but the vast majority of the time it’s bulk – or lack of – that makes the difference. Samsung has made a tablet that feels like a tablet...

If you're not into the locked down app store mentality of Apple, where only the saintly apps are approved, or just prefer the Android OS to anything out of Cupertino, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is your best choice in an increasingly crowded market.

What can I say that hasn't already been said. I loved the tablet, but I needed to return it since it didn't have the promised DLNA support. Also, the TouchWiz update ruined the experience for me. If I wanted an ipad, I would have purchased an ipad.

Pretty solid Android tablet. The Touchwiz stuff isn't too invasive, it's pretty close to vanilla Android 3.1. Most of its shortcomings are those of Android and not particular to this device.

Overall it's not bad. It's a little sluggish which is surprising considering it's supposed to be pretty good hardware. The kicker, for me, is that it doesn't use a MicroUSB to charge. Considering how often this has to be charging it's a pain to have to remember to carry around one specific cable....

I had been waiting to get a Honeycomb tablet for a while, and I can honestly say that I love using this thing. since I got it I haven't picked up the iPad, although there is still a shortage of apps, android is getting there!

I got a Galaxy Tab 10.1 after having an Acer Iconia Tab (A500) for a while. While over all, it's a good product, it lacks in features for the price. No ports what so ever except the Apple like charging/usb port. No expandable storage, no HDMI, not even a microUSB port makes this tablet less...

This was recommended to me by a co-worker and the reviews were great. I have since recommended it to several more friends. I don't have anything negative to say about it.
