    Great tablet for a while but after some time it gets very slow, I’ve had it for about a year now and it’s not at all how it used to be when I first got it. I’ve had to even factory reset the tablet a couple times just because of how slow it got. Camera quality isn’t very great but it’s a 150$ table so wasn’t expecting much. For the price it’s an okay tablet.

    I went from an old 7" Samsung Nook that was out of space (8GB internal space), and getting slower over time. I finally plunked for this unit, and have no regrets. I do wish there was a high powered 7" unit out there - a better size and weight IMHO - but it seems no one builds that form factor with any good specs. This 8" one is zippy, has the 32 GB internal (a little less than half is available after installing a few apps) and I also slapped in a storage chip. I bought a very rubbery protective case and a screen protector - it's slippery and a bit heavy, so you want to get a grippy case. I haven't used it much for reading like I used my old unit - I use the old one for that when I'm holding up the tablet above me when I read in bed. This one is a bit heavy for me for that - but that's not to denigrate this Samsung: the screen is bright, battery life is very good, and the wifi/bluetooth connectivity is excellent. I use this new tablet mostly for streaming music, which it does flawlessly.

    This isnt a bag little tablet for the price. I got it for about $100 on sale and it was well worth it. Nice and portable but big enough to see everything you need. It doesn't compare to my ipad in performance but it was way cheaper. I take it places with me because it was inexpensive and Im not worried about if something happens to it. Plus I use it for xbox xcloud game streaming paired with a xbox controller since apple devices can not do this yet.

    This is a good tablet for people who want to browse the internet, do some web shopping, store some pics, manage some documents, watch some videos, etc., more into the "light use". If you are heavy into video games and performance internet activities it would be better that you go for another model with more memory and more capabilities. The size of this tablet is perfect for everyday personal and work use; not too small, not too big. I like it very much!

    I bought this tablet because I was going back to school and it was on sale. Its the perfect study aid. I use it to access my classes, homework, even textbooks. I can work on most assignments on there and check my email. If youre a student and want a tablet thats not as expensive as all the others, I recommend this one. Also, you can buy a stylus online and it'll work for this one. I got one off of Amazon that is really basic and works well.

    A worthy successor to the tab 4

    I needed to replace my Tab 4 not because of issues but because of a broken screen (after 5 years and countless drops without a case). It's a very good unit, with all the bells and whistles that you expect from a Samsung tablet. For mobility, you can't beat the 8" tablet. Bigger than a phone and more comfortable than a 10. Worth buying. From a personal point of view, I miss the bottom center button, but I'm old and like clicky, physical buttons.

    I was shocked at how smooth this tablet was. I make gaming accounts and have TONS of accounts I manage and being the game is heavy itself, for it to manage 20 accounts (most I can do per device and I use 3).. not too shabby. Also the picture is phenomenal! Very impressed and recommend!

    This Samsung device is perfect for young ones who is looking to use an Android device. Most kids have Apple products and they discover they can do so much more with Android. Perfect start up! The colors and screen quality is also great. It is fast enough to run streaming and quick app downloads. Light and compact. The only problem I saw was the case is difficult to find and a little pricey!
