    I gifted this tablet to my grandson for Christmas and it has stopped working already. I am not pleased with this as it had a good review when I bought it. Now I don’t know whether to see if Best Buy will stand behind it or if I will need to buy a different tablet altogether. My grandson is 6 years old and it has been in a very good protective case since he got it. He uses it daily but is not rough with his things. Not pleased.

    I regret making this purchase. The keyboard is ‘glitchy” at best. I got this for studying however it’s a continual challenge trying to take notes due to the awful keyboard. I tried connecting it to my wireless keyboard and it failed to recognize it. Unfortunately, I waited too long to return it and I’ll get $0 to trade it in. So I’m stuck with this until I save up for an iPad.

    Good replacement for my well-used old tablet

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this to replace a similar Samsung tablet that died after "only" eight years. It was great, even if it didn't handle some newer apps. The old tablet was 7", which fit my hand so well! This is a bit large for me. But so far it works well and I am enjoying most of the updates from the older model. The ability to accept or reject some permissions for apps is great. The display is sharp and while having almost no margin at the edges makes an impressive display, it also means accidentally tapping apps and buttons just trying to hold the device. Battery life is better than my old tablet. There is always a bloatware problem. If there's a device that doesn't come with unwanted apps installed I haven't heard about it. But WHY is there a Phone app on a device that isn't a phone? And why isn't Samsung Free removed after the app is discontinued? (Cannot speak to durability after less than a month of use.)

    Slow Processing

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Others have pointed out the low storage space and frustration not being able to load apps on expanded memory. I wasn't expecting much for screen resolution, so that has not bothered me. My main disappointments are: 1. Slow processing speed. Though not infuriatingly slow, the mild lag did surprise me. It's just enough to be noticeable and sometimes frustrating. 2. Difficulty multi-tasking. If I switch to another App (for example, social media), often the game will need to reboot upon switching back. This can became very frustrating. 3. The battery life isn't terrible, but it's not great. Plan to charge it often. Many will point out the price, and it is one of the cheaper Samsung tablets available. I'm not necessarily wealthy, though, so dropping a couple hundred for a subpar product can be a hard pill to swallow. I suppose "you get what you pay for" is unfortunately true here. Some positives: * This thing, unfortunately, has dropped several times on hard floor. I definitely can't fault its durability. * The size is good. Not to small, but also not large and bulky. My main fault, again, is the slow speed.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
