    Got this tablet for my daughter. She wanted a better tablet than the one she currently had. Got this for her birthday. I hope she likes it. I think she will. I've had Samsung tablets in the past and they were solid.

    Terrific deal! An update to my last Tab A with more memory and current software. I ended up returning the one I bought, but only because my husband had bought one for me and one for himself already! His showers up first!

    Bought this for my child with a rubber case and has lasted with no damage at all. Invest in the case and add the family link app to monitor the use of the tablet. You will not regret it.

    Better than fire tab

    I decided to swap to this for my 3 year old daughter. She was using the fire tab and it was so slow and the app selection wasn't great. This works so much better with Samsung kids mode.

    I purchased this for a family member who cracked the screen of their previous model Galaxy Tab. I've only used it long enough to finish setting it up. While I prefer iPad and iOS, this Android tablet is well-built and should last.

    I purchased these for my God daughters for their 7th birthday. These are very nice upgrade from the first Gen kindle. They have not used them a ton, so, I really don’t have much opinion about them

    I like the tablet, but the buttons along the bottom are in a bad spot; it is too easy to hit them while operating certain apps, and exiting yourself out of the app. Would be better to be along the black strip, like on the Samsung Nook.

    I needed this tablet to be able to fly my drones especially the Autel EVO1. It is the perfect form size and runs the programs really good for both Autel and DJI. The tablet feels well made and not just some piece of plastic.

    I wanted something to replace a ageing LG tablet I had on my bedroom night stand. I like to keep a small tablet their to listen to podcasts or YouTube videos while I fall asleep. This tablet is snappy, and the price was right!

    I only buy Samsung products because of their reputation! This is my 2nd tablet purchased. This one I purchased for my granddaughter, and she loves it! My 1st Samsung tablet was purchased in 2012, and it still works wonderfully!

    I got this tablet for a friend's birthday and he's been enjoying it pretty immensely. He doesn't do anything crazy with it, but it helps him keep things organized when running tabletop game sessions without taking up a whole lot of space.

    It kinda sucks that there is such limited choice at this screen size. I wanted something a bit larger than my kindle but smaller than 10 inch. My use case was for reading in bed, some web surfing and perhaps an occasional game. Nothing to crazy. I didn't expect a workhorse for the price, but I did expect a decent tablet. Size wise, this fits the bill... specs wise? ouch. It is slow, seems to be some degree of input lag. All in all it is a terrible user experience and I am sad I didn't realize it was only a 14 day return period.

    A great tablet for its price. The screen is bright and displays good color. Its haptic responses are intermittent. I frequently need to tap or swipe more than once. It is slower than more expensive tablets.

    I bought this to replace a six-year-old tablet. It was easy to set up, easy to use, and easy to update all my previous apps. My only complaint is the size. My other tablet was seven inches, just the right size for my hands!

    No complaints. Finally got myself a name brand tablet after several cheapy tablets. This one seems solid and processes smoothly. Like it so Much I may start getting Samsung smartphones in the future.
