    I really enjoy this tablet. The battery life is wonderful. Since it is only 16 gig of on device memory, it is good that you can add a SD card. Great product.

    I bought this for my wife for mobile gaming. She loves the bigger screen and it runs much faster than her 2 year old phone. Great tab for games and email.

    My new Samsung Galaxy Tab A is just what I needed. It works great (and I got it on sale, too). It's fast, easy to use and user friendly.

    I was in the market for an inexpensive tablet for my child. I ended up buying this one for myself instead. Its a nice tablet overall. I use it primarily for reading e-books, but the added bonus of having the MS Office products was definitely a good added value. My biggest regret was not having looked and compared models for RAM, this tablet has less than 1GB and unless i kill the apps, it always seems to be running low on available RAM. For my primary uses, this is not a deal killer, but any future tablet purchase for me will definitely have to be more efficient.

    I absolutely love my Tab A! The button placement is so much more practical then it is on the Galaxy Tab 4. I use it on the go with my Internet based work programs like QBO or HM5, and haven't had a single issue with it. I was debating purchasing the s series, however I don't use it enough to be able to justify the extra cost. . If you are thinking about purchasing a tablet, I would highly recommend looking into the Samsung family of tablets.

    The tablet I had prior was terrible. So my opinion might be jaded because in comparison this Samsung is awesome. It is quick with searches. The battery life is good. Use it a lot to read books. Charges quickly. For the money this appears to be a great buy. The screen clarity is awesome.

    I purchased this tablet for my wife. This tablet is great for watching movies on youtube, Netflix, and playing games. It has a big enough screen that more than one person can watch movies comfortably. And I like it best because of the great resolution.

    This was the perfect device to upgrade my daughter. Lightweight, good battery, and crisp display. The MicroSD slot is a challenge to load; it likes to spring out rather than lock in.

    This is my second tablet I have owned. My first one was a 10.1 galaxy tab 2. The galaxy tab a 8 is the replacement for my old one that died on me after 2 years. I like the Galaxy tab A 8 better because it is easier to fit in my hand, much faster and cheaper than the old one. I only use my tablet for games and web browsing. And it does a good job.
