    I loved my previous Samsung tablet but the battery finally gave up and I traded it in for the Galaxy Tab A8. Unfortunately, I purchased online without testing it out. It is very heavy and cumbersome...not something you can take to bed and read. Also, the touch screen isn't as responsive as my previous tablet; I really should have just had the battery replaced and kept it.

    We bought this tablet to replace a 6 year old iPad. This does everything that we used the iPad for. The picture quality is great!

    I bought my Tab A8 to replace my old tab A , it's quite a bit quicker because it has twice as much ram ! I gave my Tab A to my son ! I have been using Samsung tabs since my first tablet a tab E then a tab A then an A7 now a tab 8 ! I absolutely hate anything that says crapple on it and love Samsung tablets

    Overall, nice product. Touch screen not as good as a very old Ipad that has a cracked screen (it doesn't recognize some touches, and seems to be overly sensitive near the edges).
