Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7:

Released in the U.S. on April 22, 2012, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 offers buyers a full Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) experience for under $250. Given the tablet's price, hardware specifications, and size, Samsung appears to have the Amazon Kindle Fire clearly in its sights. How does the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 stack up against the Kindle Fire and Samsung's other 7-inch tablet, the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus? Find out as I crack this tablet open for a look at the hardware inside.
