    I owned the older version of the Galaxy Tab A and replaced it with the updated model of the Galaxy Tab A. It is a slightly larger which allows increased viewing. Good purchase.

    Although not their high end model this fits the bill for me. Very responsive touch screen...nice on battery life and black screen looks great! Grab a memory card and you'll be set for about anything.

    This is my second Tab 8. The first one I still use (for a few years now) I bought this for my granddaughter, and she loves it. Would highly recommend for anyone, especially for children age 5 and above.

    As long as you do not need speed, this tablet is ok. Nice screen and good battery life unless you stream all day. If you want performance, you will need to get one of their more expensive ones.

    I loved my Tab A 7" that I bought in 2016... until it fell in the bathtub last night. The new model Tab A 8" is only slightly bugger and not too cumbersome. Love that it has more GB memory for my podcasts!

    So glad I purchased this tablet. I previously had a tablet made by RCA. While I liked that one, I like this one more. It is easier to maneuver. Lots of storage space. I'd gladly purchase this one again.

    The tablet is pretty fast, and the screen renders crisp images. For the price, it is good. I use it mainly to check my emails, and for social media. I have to acknowledge that it is a bit heavy and bulky to handle.

    I bought the Samsung Galaxy Tab A for my wife to replace her old tablet. She is very happy and uses the Galaxy Tab A for watching videos, reading the news, and playing "Words with Friends" against me.

    This is a great Tablet. Great upgrade from Galaxy Tab 4 8.0 that came out in 2016. Only thing I wish was that it had enough ram for my son to play fornite which requires 8gb of ram. This tablet only has 4gb.

    We had the kids version of this one, worked great, love the long battery life on it. This is basically the same thing just a new version, not a kids version per say. Definitely recommend!

    This is a very nice 8' tablet at a very reasonable price. My wife has used various Samsung tabs for a number of years and has liked them very much, so I decided to get this one and have not been disappointed.

    The tablet is exactly what i needed and works great. It is a touch slower at responding at times but given how much i use the tablet i expected this. Plus for a solid samsung tablet you cant beat the price.
