    This tablet has quickly become one of my favorite tablets. The S pen is an added plus. I can use it for my coloring apps and also for notes. The pen does not lag.The price was right.I did add a micro SD card as well.

    Good Android tablet

    The tablet itself is an average Android tablet running Marshmallow at this time. It offers a 1080p screen, which is good. Battery life is very good as well. The thing setting this Android tablet apart from so many is the S-Pen. With a Wacom screen, the inking or handwriting experience is excellent. You can use the S-Pen as an input device as well besides inking. The S-Pen is silo-ed in the tablet itself so you always have it with you! Unless you take handwritten notes, or need something besides your finger to select things onscreen, you probably won't need this tablet. The Android tablet experience is good, but the Wacom digitized screen with the S-Pen is what makes this tablet shine.

    Got this tablet on sale on black Friday as a replacement for my son's tablet I accidentally broke. Even though it says it's .6" larger than his last, it looks massive comparatively. Much faster. Great buy at $250.

    My favorite feature is the S peen without a doubt! And because I have quite petite hands the pen will not bother me for long durations, I cannot say for the people with larger hands. That would be the only flaw in its design. The ease of transferring data and storage is super simple and is not as painstaking with other devices. It's a perfect on the go size for watching media and reading e-textbooks (my classes offered them**). Perfect for kindle! Love this product! I use it far more than my laptop!

    Wow is one of many words I have to say about my Samsung Galaxy with a pen. You can use Microsoft products as well as many other apps. Great price especially for What it does. I would definitely purchase this again.

    We started without the pen but really for homework and it works so much better for getting kids to show work. Now it's used as scratch paper. I paired this up with my Disney Circle and I think it's worked well.

    This is the second of these tablets that my family has purchased. We love the S Pen for taking notes. The battery life is very good and the size is just right for a work tablet.

    I used to be an Apple fan and still have an iPad at home, but lately I have been gravitating towards Samsung products. This tablet is super quick. It has a beautiful picture screen. It was a lot less expensive and with all the same features of the iPad. Plus, I have the S Pen which is fantastic. My tablet came pre-loaded with Word and Excel which was a bonus. If you're looking for an excellent product at a low cost, take a look at the Samsung Galaxy Tab A. You will have no regrets.

    Great Tablet with Stylus

    Really nice Android tablet. If you have an Android phone it is convenient to have a common interface for your touchscreen devices. Screen is large - good for reading documents (replacing paper) or watching videos (replacing TV). Full size pages are readable. I still want a tablet the size of a standard piece of paper with no size reduction - for the price, this is the best one that comes with a stylus. The stylus is very nice and good for document markup, note taking, and doodling.

    If you don't need heavy duty computing, this is great for day to day use. Mail, wifi, good accessory keyboard makes it good for email, office. Battery life is amazing. My only read problem was with the available carry case. An absolutele piece of junk. Bought a case and keyboard from Herrington which works very well. The unit is fast and with a USB adaptor, you can transfer files easily. It has good basic storage capability, but with an additional SD chip installed, there is plenty of storage. Overall, good value.

    I almost purchased the Samsung S2 tablet, but at the last minute, decided to be more practical and spend less for this Tab A. I'm so happy I did. All the tech aspects of the S2 are unnecessary. This tablet, the Tab A, fulfills all my needs and more! The screen is big enough, storage and speed is really good, graphics and clarity are also just fine if you are just using your tablet for minimal use, like streaming services and email. I highly recommend!

    I need a pen and this tablet comes with s pen. I use this tablet a lot. It does everything I need. Touch screen is sometimes a bit 'touchy in that it doesn't always wait for a touch. Sometimes it picks up a touch when I am only hovering. Otherwise all is ok

    We got this for the kid and he loves it. He is always on it amd he is always raving about the speed of the processor. Its a little big so you need to be careful holding it.
