    I'm looking at getting a Tablet and will be traveling shortly on a long flight and this will be handy.

    Any thoughts on the battery life if one was watching films or tv series, is this going to last 6hrs or more

    Based on my personal experiences, I would say no, not quite. But it really depends on how new the battery is, how well conditioned, is it fully charged, how bright you set the screen while viewing, how large you set the video playback while viewing, how good your earphones are (planes are noisy, you will need full volume) etc.

    Watching full screen you will get at least 4 hours, and up to 6, but probably not more

    BTW, the Galaxy Tab 3 will be out soon - would you not hang on, or get a Note instead? or a Kindle Fire or Google Nexus?

    Thanks for your post. I'll be going away shortly and i've always brought a laptop with me but it's heavy and awkward and Tab makes more sense with it being lightweight and compact. I've held off so far but need to make a decision soon. I've my head set on a Samsung. I've just being looking around online at reviews

    There are good deals on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 at Dixons in Dublin Airport - might be worth considering, but of course it would be too late to load it up with movies..
