I was looking for a case that could prop up my new tablet and that was not too expensive but functional and this worked fine.

I am having a problem with the tablet. I have been to the Best Buy in St Petersburg to the Samsung rep. Problem had not been solved. I am traveling for the next month, the reason I purchased the tablet so I wouldn't have to take my laptop!!!! Should have brought the laptop anyway!!! I will be returning the unit when I return home to MA!!!

Hard to write a real review after less than a month of use. Has performed as needed with minimal software updates

I wouldn't run out and buy this particular item. They're are too many issues with it for the price you pay.

Ok for streaming and reading out of the box. No good for outside use due to glare from any light sources.

I needed a tablet where I can read all of my e-books on the same platform without purchasing several devices. I use books on Nook, Kindle, and Google Books. And I thought maybe this Tab A 8 would be that device as the screen quality and lighting would not hurt my eyes as much. I was so wrong. This is a decent device but as you use it for a few hours it begins to lag on you. It is painfully slow compared to other basic tablets or even the basic iPad 5th/6th gens. And the screen quality is not that great, the texts comes off a little blurry. So it defeated the purpose of why I purchased it. If there is a silver lining in this, the matching folio case that you can attach to the 2 connector docks on the back is the best case I have ever used. It's a shame that Samsung has not carried that over to their newest Tab A or S models.

Although I can't reject the beauty of this table as well as its weigh. Screen has a good revolution but the speed of this table sucks. Yah, it sucks. Open an app/ a website takes at least 5 seconds for it to pop up ( didn't include the secondS it loaded the app/page. I wanted to save money so I bought this tablet but then I returned it.
