    This is a nice mid-level tablet. It does not have the most juice, yet runs fairly well. The best part is that it runs on the Android operating system. It does have an LCD screen as opposed to the LED on most of Samsung's devices. Still, a quality item.

    Great tablet for general use, such as reading the news, email or general use apps. I am not stressing the tablet by playing games or anything of the sort. So if you are doing any of the items I mentioned and are thinking about getting a decent sized tablet. This one should be a good contender to consider.

    I bought this to stream TV during my commute to/ from work. I only have one game on it and two tv services, and I've already run out of memory. I have a 32mg card in it, but the preloads have used up all available device memory already.

    I have the larger Tab A which I love and use daily, but I needed something smaller to fit in my purse when out in the ministry. I don't think it's as fast as the larger tablet but it isn't slow either. It suits my needs very well and I got it on sale so the price was right! The split screen feature is a plus.

    I have used Samsung tablets and phones for along time. The Tab A is overall excellent. Only 1 problem that really bothers me: I can't deactivate the WIFI Direct feature; therefore, it is constantly searching for other devices and says that my device can be seen by others. In the Tab 3 Lite, I could turn it on and off. I have contacted Samsung and they tell me that the only way to deactivate WIFI Direct is to deactivate WIFI. Not an option. However, the tablet is very nice. Great display, camera, split screen. Overall very nice, especially for the price!!

    I have this in my kitchen for recipes and such. It works fine for basic tasks, bust since its running off on android 5 it isn't the best. It also get slow at times, but for basic web browsing and such, it will do just fine.

    Compact sizeIs nice because it fits in purses and other small bags. Wish I would’ve got the one with the cellular 4G or 3G option, Since I’d like to bring it with me and I wouldn’t have to worry about logging into a Wi-Fi.

    Bought this tablet to replace a Samsung tab 4 7" which is still working, but has 'old battery' problems. The galaxy tab a 7" has limited abilities. However, for e-mails, browsing, streaming media applications it works very well! It is a VERY convenient size for a mobile device.

    I love my Android, I load books from the library or Amazon and take it on every trip. My old was has been around the world and then some, hope this one last as long! And it was way cheaper than the early ones! A plus that it has internet access to email and all the various apps.

    I am a Mac guy, so normally purchase iPads, but needed this for business. I have enjoyed using it. Not as intuitive as a Mac product, but the battery is good and viewing is very nice. If has done a great job at presentations for my business.

    We had a galaxy tab for about 4 years before it died on us, without giving us any issues like slowing down or not updating like other tablets do. We let our now 5 year old play with it all the time and he loved it. So when it stopped working we went and got another galaxy tab and its just as great!
