Background and Identification

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus is an updated model of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 introduced in October 2011. The Tab 7.0 Plus is the predecessor to the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, which was released in April 2012. The Tab 7.0 Plus belongs to the first generation of the Samsung Galaxy Tab series, which includes two 10.1-inch models, an 8.9-inch, a 7.0-inch, and a 7.7-inch model. The Tab 7.0 Plus is considered more of an update than a successor to the original Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus tablet’s 7.0-inch display includes a resolution of 600 by 1024 pixels for approximately 170 pixels per inch. It was available with 1 GB of RAM and either 16 GB or 32 GB of internal storage. The Tab 7.0 Plus tablet includes a 3.15-megapixel main camera and a front-facing 2-megapixel camera. The tablet includes a 4000 mAh non-removable battery, meaning its battery is attached to the inside of the device using a permanent adhesive, making repair and replacement more difficult, but not necessarily impossible.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus includes the name “Samsung” printed in capital letters in the center of the tablet’s bottom bezel. The “Samsung” name is also included in the center of the tablet’s backing. The model number is usually included at the bottom of the tablet’s back with other text and symbols. Another way to identify the tablet is by opening the “Settings” or “Options” application and finding the “About Tablet” section. The model number can be found by looking for the model number section.
