A:AnswerFound on Google: Plug the keyboard or dock into the port on the bottom of the Galaxy Tab. You can use any USB keyboard if you get a USB OTG host cable. This adapter lets you connect a standard-sized USB plug to your Samsung Galaxy Tab.

A:AnswerYes it does. You just have to hook it to your local carrier, whatever cell phone company that you use as far as AT&T or sprint or Verizon and then you can make phone calls on it.
A:AnswerAs long as you can connect to a wifi connection you do not need a carrier. But if you want to access these things in the middle of the woods with no wifi access, yes you would need a carrier. Or you could share your data from your cellphone.
A:AnswerAfter doing some additional research online, it appears that this tablet doesn't support DP Alt Mode so trying to connect it to a tv using a usb c to hdmi adapter to mirror the display will not work. I can verify this from personal experience having attempted it. When I tried to use a usb c to hdmi adapter, the tablet screen did not output to the tv.

A:AnswerHello there, thank you for finding the available time out of your lively day to ask us your question about the Samsung Galaxy Tab A8. No, the advertised version of this tablet is a Wi-Fi enabled version that lacks cellular capabilities so it would require a steady Wi-Fi signal in order for it to be fully functional. You are looking for an LTE/cellular version of this tablet if you are wanting a cellular carrier to provide mobile services to it when you are not in the presence of a Wi-Fi connection. Let us know if you have any other questions for us by reaching out to Samsung Support at your earliest convenience. Thank you for being a steadfast Samsung customer. - Debra
