The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 I705 128GB is Samsung's tablet featuring a 7.0 inches, 137.9 cm2 (~58.1% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Qualcomm MSM8960 Snapdragon S4 Plus chipset. It comes with a 4000 mAh battery. At AED 149 in the UAE and ₹3,499 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 I705 offers a 7.0-inch TFT display with 600x1024 resolution and no adaptive refresh rate, making it functional for basic media but not for smooth scrolling or modern apps. Powered by the aging Snapdragon S4 Plus and Android 4.0.3, it struggles with today’s software demands. The 4000 mAh battery lasts longer than expected for its class, but the 345.7g weight feels bulky for a 7-inch device. No stylus support exists. This tablet excels only in low-cost access to Android on a small screen. It’s for users needing a secondary device for static content like PDFs or old games, not streaming or multitasking. The 128GB storage is generous for its era, but app compatibility is severely limited. In UAE at AED 149, it’s value because it’s cheaper than a used smartphone. In India at ₹3499, it’s overpriced — a ₹2500 Android phone delivers far more utility and modern software.
