This is not the tablet for video streaming. Very small display, older processor and limited RAM. But Sprint have me a good deal on the LTE version.

I like the tablet ok, I love the fact that since I have Wi-Fi at home I can turn on my tablet and don't have to use any giga bites. I only wish it had a better camera and a flash.Overall I am satisfied. The sales people at Best Buy and at Sumsung were great. I had a good experience and they helped me set it up and answer all my questions.
I was going to buy the tablet at Sprint, but Best Buy matched the price and offered me a lower price on the insurance for the tablet.

The Samsung Galaxy 3 Tab is a great little tablet for those on a budget. I travel a lot and the 7" screen is the perfect size for being on the move. I am very satisfied with the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3.

we got this tablet for $50 with a two year agreement with Sprint. We mostly use the Wi-Fi, so it's $5 a month for 2 years. That's awesome

The tablet itself is nice. It looks good, feels good when you hold, and the weight is good also. It does feel slightly thicker than you expect from looking at it, but it does not feel bad at all. The styling is nice actually, even though it looks like a giant Galaxy phone.
The screen is probably the biggest weakness when you look at the specs, but it does ok. It is by no means a very sharp image, but it does well for the amount of pixels it has. Other than cost-cutting, there is no excuse for this resolution on a screen from a top manufacturer. Nonetheless, text is readable and images look defined. Color is somewhat washed out at lower brightness levels. At 50% or more brightness, the colors are what you would expect. Responsiveness of the screen is good, no problems with that.
Processing power does well for what it has, 1.7 GHz Dual Core, 1.5GB RAM. The extra bump in speed from the WiFi version and the bump in RAM really help. In my use it has only slowed down when loading graphic intensive maps (but I should note a Nexus 4, with quad core and 33% more RAM has the same problem).
Connectivity on LTE networks was very good and exceeded my expectation. My experience with coverage was a positive one. The availability of LTE in certain areas was the reason I sought a tablet with cell coverage. The LTE connection was fast enough for my needs.
Coming from all software keys, I had to once again get used to using hardware buttons, plus the fact that the back key is on the right side vs left that I've used for over a year now. For someone who owns Galaxy phone, the layout should not be a problem and be very familiar. Responsiveness of the keys is good. Volume, power and home keys all feel good when pressed. The capacitive Back and Menu keys are somewhat of a problem for me. Again, because I'm not used to them being there and have to still get accustomed.
Overall, I am pleased with the tablet. It is by no means a cutting edge device. If you can live with the screen resolution and that it does not have the processing power of the top tablets.

It was doing good, then it died. Tried replacing battery. Nothing. It's now a paperweight.
And I'm an engineer.
