[4.3] Jelly Bean Update for Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 is a must since Jelly Bean 4.3 is the latest version of Android which is only available for nexus devices e.g. Galaxy Nexus, LG Nexus 4, Nexus 10, etc. [4.3] Jelly Bean Update for Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 is unlikely to be provided officially by Samsung as this company is well known for being reluctant in giving such support in terms of os updates. 

[4.3] Jelly Bean Update for Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 offers so many of the goodies that you love from Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. Most of the stock apps and widgets in [4.3] Jelly Bean Update for Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 are similar in both Android versions. To the eyes, there's no big change in [4.3] Jelly Bean Update for Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 at all.


But, some new significant features and some minor alterations make 
[4.3] Jelly Bean Update for Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 sweeter and fun. Here is a brief list of new features from [4.3] Jelly Bean Update for Galaxy Tab 2 7.0:
  • Support for multiple users (for Android tablets)
  • Multiple lockscreen pages with widgets
  • Wireless display
  • Revamped Camera app
  • Photo Sphere
  • HDR Mode (for supported devices)
  • New Clock app
  • Quick Settings pull-down menu
  • Daydream
  • Gesture typing
  • Additional options in Developer Options
  • Magnification Gestures and Explore by Touch accessibility features
  • Security enhancements
  • UI design changes
  • Restricted profiles - put your device into a mode with limited access to apps and content. 
  • Setup wizard simplification - getting started on Android is easier thanks to the ability to correct previous input, and because of streamlined user agreements. 
  • Faster user switching - switching users from the lock screen is now faster. 
  • Enhanced photo daydream - navigate through interesting albums.
  • Disabled apps tab - check which apps are disabled in Settings > Apps
  • Bluetooth AVRCP 1.3 support - display song names on a car stereo. 
  • Location detection through Wi-Fi - use Wi-Fi to detect location without turning on Wi-Fi all the time. 
  • Easier text input - an improved algorithm for tap-typing recognition makes text input easier. 
  • Lower latency input for gamepad buttons and joysticks. 
  • Android 4.3 Jelly Bean Language has improved its support – namely Hebrew, Arabic and Hindi. Android 4.3 Jelly Bean Languages enable right-to-left layouts across the platform user interface: dialer, home and lock screens, settings, and more. There's also added support for Afrikaans, Amharic, Swahili, and Zulu in Android 4.3 Jelly Bean Languages.
  • If you start typing numbers, Android 4.3 Jelly Bean Dial pad autocomplete will suggest contacts or numbers to call.
  • 4.3 Jelly Bean adds support for OpenGL ES 3.0, the latest standard for accelerated 3D graphics. Android 4.3 Jelly Bean OpenGL ES 3.0 brings photorealism to a whole new level in the games you're playing: blades of grass on the soccer field come alive, asphalt on the street looks real as you screech by, stubble on a villains' face almost pokes out of the screen.
  • As expected, version 4.3 brings low-energy Blutooth which has been dubbed Android 4.3 Jelly Bean Bluetooth Smart. Android 4.3 Jelly Bean Bluetooth Smart support minimises the amount of power used when connecting Bluetooth accessories and also measures the data being transmitted.
  • The feature of Android 4.3 Jelly Bean Restricted Profiles lets you manage the apps and content which is accessible on a certain user account. Android 4.3 Jelly Bean Restricted Profiles enable parental controls, so certain family members are prevented from accessing mature content.
