    Works well once you get used to it- I have been using iPad for years but I think I may be inclined to change going forward.

    Been using the phone for almost a month now and am still learning about all of its capabilities. Phone is working well, takes good pictures, and is very dependable.

    First Galaxy tablet I had, but it does what I need it to do. I'd recommend for an Apple alternative.

    The screen is a bit small but thats all I would say as a con. Everything else works perfectly fine and its a good deal for what you're getting.

    It's handling all right I just didn't like when Microsoft locked me out of the tablet for 28 days because I wanted to change my personal information on my Hotmail

    I like it overall but the screen goes to save mode far too quickly, so I have to logon too much. I also have a problem with the lighting.

    Not impressed with the battery at all. Rarely holds a charge for a day even when not being used but on my desk in case I need it - I now keep it plugged in for most of the time. I would not recommend bringing this anywhere unless you have a portable charger/battery with you. I have an older Samsung tablet which holds the charge for much longer.

    However, I had to replace the charger in less than a week. It just wouldn’t charge with the included charger. After that issue was fixed, it’s a great product.

    Good overall Tablet, some nitpicks would be that it sometimes disconnects when you are laying down with 1 end on the side and your hand on the other.
