I lagi smart. I put in broadband sim only.

Haha.. But for me, using it as phone also unleash the full capability of the device. It can make calls, so why not. All in one. Paid 2k for it, so just wanna make sure I bought it for good.

just solely for the flash support?

Coming from a past ipad user myself, I would say please consider the following:

Out of the box:
The bad:
1) Cannot write to external storage in the tab itself
2) Good AMOLED display but force 16 bit color mode on alot of popular apps (unless the app does force 24 bit (888 RGB), this is Samsung fault if i am not mistaken. here. This really bothers me but still livable since I dont play games that much.
3) Laggy Touch Wizz Launcher
4) The suction cup marking on the screen, almost all the tab 7.7 will have this issue, particularly if you like dark background and white text and do reading in the dark. Refer here. Although it doesnt bother me
5) Flash pluggin is overated in android, I would usually turn it off as it is buggy and always crashing my tab. I prefer safari implementation in iOS.
6) Whatever people tell you, ALL browsers for honeycomb and ICS are still behind safari.
7) Some good quality apps / games is not compatible with the tab.

Now, for the good:
1) Bad item 1,3 and 7 can be rectified by rooting / custom ROM or using different launcher
2) File transfer to memory card is still better than ipad even without rooting
3) Apps integration with OS is better than iOS
4) Good built quality
5) Better media playback thru 3rd party apps
6) Can act as a phone if you want albeit a little bulky and funny...

In my opinion.
Out of the box, galaxy tab 7.7 has it flaws which some can be rectified using apps and via rooting and custom ROMS.

I wouldnt recommend if you prefer simplicity and ready out of the box tablet such as ipad and do not like/ want to root your device and customize stuff.

I use my tab as an entertainment center when I am on the run and I am always on the run. So it fits my purpose, will it fit yours?

Explain point 3. I've sold my 7.7 for an iPad.
Don't really like android play store.
Choices limited and quality is lower overall.

agreed with most of your points. but still, i chosen tab 7.7 over ipad 3 due to the fact that i feel deceived by Apple on how they limit the capability of its technology, in order for a sustain marketing of their product.

for instance, most manufacturer for Android are being progressively innovative by competing, designing and improving their products. whereas, Apple just release 1 product at a time, similar device with little software and hardware upgrade time by time, and tends to look and functions similarly as its predecessor. in spite of i agreed the goodness of Apple product, still i don't favor the arrogant state of Apple, thus i tends to support the other potential and improving manufacturer, for the hope that in future, we might have a lot more choice of product in market.

and, for most, the Android system flaws has been the issue of most products, while all manufacturers putting their best efforts to produce good quality devices. for instance, the Tab 7.7. itself, hardware+physical-wise: its not bad at all. the look, the feel, the capabilities, all satisfied me. it is Google who need to put more effort to bring their Android system into a mature state.

you can either switch the wifi off and turn it on back, worst to worst, just reboot the device.

which point 3?
the bad point 3.
touch wiz is a lagging creature

the good point 3.
You can have an OS that is fully integrated like skype and others (that is my opinion of fully integrated).

how to clean install / flash official firmware to the tab? want to wipe everything inside the tab.

Alot of Apps in appstore is much better than in google play and it is very easy to find ipad specific or iphone/ipod specific/ work on both ipad and iphone apps.

It is a pain in google play and you need an app (tablified apps) to find and even then it is not extensive. Adding to the frustration, is that after searching you found out it is not compatible with your device.

The only app that I could think off that are better in Android than in iOS are the following:
CNN app
Photoshop touch
Movie players
Music players
File explorers
Cloud storage apps
Widgets

The rest are almost an outdated version of its counterpart in appstore...

a very neutral review! thumbs up! but, too many people fail to analyze their preferences and without thinking by keep following the trends had actually brought up so many issues by FAGS.

Why talk about Ipad in Android thread? Most of us know pro and cons of each product. No point to elaborate. Buy and use to your own needs. There is no perfect device for everyone..

because somebody asked.

thanks guys for your advice/opinion..i`m ordered already my tab on superbuy..

hope anyone can give me some tips or some things to do to improve the tab`s performances..maybe some accessories recommendations?

thanks guys^^;
