    My 3 year old absolutely loves this tablet. It is easy to use and navigate. The tablet has more features than the smaller kids tablets and games. More reasonable and longlasting.

    My son has had IPads and other tablets before. This Samsung has been amazing with the battery life span, clear picture and other options it offers. Will be buying another soon.

    The size of the tablet is perfect and the screen is very sharp and shows colors very well. The only drawback is that there are not many great covers that go with this tablet.

    Christmas Present for Wife

    So far so good. Wife is wasnt a tablet person until now. She has always had old hand me downs with cracked screens or something like that. I finally got her this tablet because we own pretty much all Samsung products so I knew use of this for her would be flawless. She is warming up to it and starting to use it a lot. Easy for her to carry in purse as well. Last thing, I was originally going for the Tab A 7 which is 8gb. Happened to catch this on a great sale during the holidays. Glad I did as this seems so much bigger and obviously more internal storage. If you're in the same situation pay the extra money and get this one.

    I've been wanting a Tablet for a couple years now. So first I checked on BB.com to see what they had deal wise. Found the deals for some of the Tablets to be pretty shady as a Tech-wise type and a gamer person. This Tablet was the first one I saw for the $100 price range. I found that it is way better than my phone for gaming and picture taking. Processor rating: Excellent. Games and apps load quickly. Memory: Good 2.5gb is better than 1gb. Onboard HardDrive: Good. Filled fast with apps even with 32gb SD card. Overall Rating: Excellent. If I wanted my friends to buy this I would most defianitly say yes.

    Great product! Kids mode is amazing and you can play Pokemon Go without it freezing all the time like on the Nabi DreamTabs we returned. The amount of control that parents have is great as well! You can restrict apps and limit time for certain apps as well! I would encourage you to try this product and would recommend it for my friends! We also purchased a foam case for our children as well! They Love this! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LWMVLRS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Returned tablet due to OS being too old with no update available, Purchased Nvidia K1 8in tab, which updated all the way to android 7x despite being released two years ago. This gives you split screen, adaptable storage, larger battery, more pixels, stereo speakers,drastically more compute power w/ adjustable clocking. Price was more but worth it. Not an apples to apples comparison due to price difference.
