    Bought it to put in my car and it doesn’t stay connected to the Bluetooth. Waste of money. Also is slow processing things.

    Don't waste money on a Galaxy Tablet, there's too much bloatware and slows down the performance. Almost unusable

    Trying to resolve the issue on my own before returning, but never by a used tablet from best buy. Came setup in retail mode, took quite a bit of research how to get out of that. Finally able to wipe data and factory reset but now I can't even get signed in to use the tablet with known working gmail accounts. Absolute garbage.

    This tablet should not be sold in 2019. There is no support for Android OS beyond 5.X. Nothing modern works. Do not purchase.

    I don't understand how Samsung can sell tablets that don't support the current operating system! This model isn't very old so I assumed I would be able to update but that wasn't the case. Returned it immediately after realizing that so I cannot comment on any other aspects of the tablet
