    Better than old Tab 4 7.0, but barely - don't buy

    I bought a silver Samsung Galaxy Tab A 7" on Black Friday at Best Buy. The WiFi speeds were HORRIBLE. I'm talking 13.41 Mbps max and as low as 1.61 Mbps. My other devices include: 1. Galaxy S7 Edge 2. ASUS Q552 (2015/2016) 3. LG G3 (over 27 months old) 4. Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 (bought May 2015) All of the devices in that list connect wirelessly between 120-230 Mbps (S7 Edge takes the crown; phone fricken rocks). I did a full factory reset on my Arris DOCSIS 3.0 AND two factory resets on my Tab A. Still could not break 20 Mbps. I returned it and grabbed the same model in black. I know there is no logical reason that color would have anything to do with it but weirder things can happen in tech. So the black model fared better than the silver but it still sucks; maxing out at around 37 Mbps. This is a completely usable connection speed BUT when my "ancient" G3 and Tab 4 are connecting at over 100 Mbps, those speeds are unacceptable. This is so frustrating because I LOVE the 7" form factor in a tablet but no one makes a premium Android tablet in that size. My Tab 4 7.0 connects at a decent speed BUT the software completely lags to the point of being nearly unusable at times. I've had to strip it down to bare bones, with only a few key Google apps only. Can't even browse the web without it hanging up. This is why I was in the market for a replacement. I really don't consider myself a table person but at this point I'd be willing to spend "real" money on a 7” tablet just to avoid the frustration those few times I do pick it up. (The Tab A silver was on sale for $89.99 and the black for $99.99). I am more than likely going to return the black Tab A, AGAIN, tomorrow and just do some more research or wait until someone releases a solid 7”slate.
