    Solid Tablet

    I have owned this tablet for almost 2 months now and it has not let me down after having 4 different tablets either fail me or disappoint me this one has held its own and as of last night it did its first system upgrade without bricking the tablet !!!! KUDOS I was going to buy the tab 4 but this one being its upgraded brother with a bit more RAM and more capacity on the SD card i went with this and im not disappointed even the screen is much more crisp and clean than my previous tablets but samsung is the leader in display panels .. The touch screen is perfect for my big hands because its not overly sensitive with my touch its calibrated well.. The sounds is not bad at all even with the speaker on the back sounds good but i use a bluetooth speaker that sounds awesome linked up.. The battery has a real good life span i would have to say it will last me about 3 days on a charge and thats leaving it on and using it for misc tasks.. Use Ccleaner to help keep it from being cluttered up and fast running and i know its safe and very small program. The only gripe i have is the price dropped 20 bucks rite after owning it for 2 weeks and well now its 30 bucks less so GRAB ONE NOW...

    I purchased the Samsung - Galaxy Tab for my daughter so I could download learning apps to help her with her Abc's and Counting and it was perfect for that purpose I had no problems with this tablet and it continues to work until this day.

    Nice tablet but somewhat heavy.

    The tablet has a sharp and attractive display. The performance is improved compared to previous models, and the ‘Recent’ touch button, which shows the recently used applications that are still running in the background, is a very useful tool for closing such applications thus extending battery run time. One item, however, is rather disappointing. The weight of the device is quite substantial, for its size. It weighs as much as a 4 year old tablet, the Galaxy Tab 3 7in. No improvement there.

    Good tablet for the price

    This is my first tablet, so I wanted to see how the Galaxy Tab A performed for the $120 price I paid. I basically bought this tablet to experiment with connecting to the Sony Bluetooth head unit in my truck to play music thru, along with a couple different audio visualization apps.. For my needs, it works very well. The touch-screen is decently responsive....however it's just a tad laggy....but everything works as expected. Playing music and movies on it works fine, all apps work well, the display is nice and clear....but I wouldn't recommend using it for graphics-hungry apps or online games. I'm sure if I spent another $100-150, I would have zero complaints....but I will spend a bit more next time.
