    This tablet has some solid specs and a good price. Plus the S pen for writing and drawing. The size and full hd screen are great for watching videos and with 3gb ram, good for some gaming as well.

    The Galaxy 10.1 tablet was easy to set up and use. The instructions were right on for a no-tech guy such as my self. It is a perfect tablet for my purposes. There are more expensive tablets out there, but for home use and the price, it has all the capabilities I need and then some.

    For the price this Tab is so great!! I have not been able to figure out how to download apps to the mini sd card, I read you can but, I am not sure if you can. I hope so. I love that I can take calls from my s7 edge on my Tab. It really is awesome! Great apps for the s pen too!

    This is a great tablet for the money. The only drawback I can point out is that it is only 16gb of memory built in. The screen is great for the money along with the pen features. It has a great battery life that has made my girlfriend very happy about.

    Very good tablet with active screen / pen

    I needed a tablet for writing / drawing diagrams while traveling. The S-Pen is a little small, but easy for me to adjust to. It can be slow to remove from it's storage slot. (Maybe I should just keep it in my shirt pocket?) I'm not very good at drawing fancy stuff ("art") so I can't talk about how they get the beautiful stuff in the ads. The Pen pallet choice interface isn't too hard to use but I'm still learning to move thru it more quickly. I'm still adjusting to lowering the pen FIRST to make sure that my palm doesn't mess up the drawing (drawing apps, SNotes). SNotes are not easily shared between Samsung devices, at least not that I could figure out (Tab A and Note5), even with help from Samsung. I think the Tab A is around 1.1 pounds. I bought cover/KB combo that weighs another 1.5 lbs. Too heavy to lug around so I switched to a foam zipper case. Much easier to use and the Tab A is holding up fine = "rugged." Battery life is excellent. It holds charge after sitting ON but unused for several days (90% to 89%). I'm not a marathon user (just a few hours at a time) and it still has plenty of charge left. When low, I do let it charge overnight. It only slow charges, no fast charge. Even though I'm not making use of most of the snazzy or sophisticated features, it's a good tablet so I gave it a 5.

    This is a wonderful tablet. It is fast opening apps and when browsing the web. I had originally purchased the Tab A without the pen but later exchanged it at Best Buy for the pen version with no problem. Great price for a mid range tablet.

    Great tablet at an affordable price, and from a reliable brand. Bought it for my mom. Nice tablet, off course not top of the line, but very nice beginner tablet to use for basics: internet, movies, music, etc. The pen is an added touch.

    This is a really great tablet and I haven't been able to put it down since I received it. It is a little bit heavy in your hand to hold but I did purchase a case for it through Amazon along with a couple of pop sockets through Amazon to be able to hold the tablet and also be able to use it as a navigation system in the vehicle. I had debated on getting the regular tablet without the S pen but I am glad that I bought the tablet that comes with it even though it is a bit higher priced than the other one. It is great that it has such a large expandable memory to store many more things on this tablet and so I did purchase an SD card for it.

    So glad that I purchased this tablet with the S pen instead of it without it. It really comes in handy. The product is absolutely great and you can always count on Samsung to make a great quality product for a long time to come.

    Great for multi tasking. The S pen is very accurate and precise. Good battery life. This is arguably the best tablet out there aside from the Surface tabs. The key is the 3GB RAM. The cheapo tablets that are 100 dollars or less usually have 1GB RAM at the most. Might seem a little pricey but for the performance specs you get in this bad boy, its worth it.

    This is my second Samsung tablet and I have to say, the battery has a really long life. I find that after being on it for hours, I still have over 85% battery. The display is beautiful, vivid colors and it takes decent photos.

    I love this! I am so glad I got the one with the s pen. Those who get this when you get a screen protector and case note that this one is bigger then the one without the s pen. The s pen writes so smooth. It's amazing.
