Since you guys liked it so much when we tore apart that GALAXY Note and S II, we decided to give the GALAXY Tab 7.7 LTE a similar teardown treatment. Weighing only 335 grams but featuring a powerful battery providing up to 10 hours of video playback time, a crisp Super-AMOLED Plus display, and lightning fast LTE mobile broadband, the Tab 7.7 LTE hits the sweet spot for a portable multimedia device. So let’s see what lies in between those 7.89 millimeters.

Front

To not sacrifice durability for slimness, the front cover contains magnesium, while the camera, speaker and other parts have been modularized to maximize space.

 

Rear Cover
