If you have a samsung phone, then using this galaxy tab will be super simple! The icons on your galaxy phone mimic the icons on this tablet. So far, I love it!

Tablet purchased May 30, 2024. Mainly used to read books, and download netflix to watch while traveling. Started having issues with the A9's wi-fi, a couple of months after purchase. Noticed webpages taking longer to load, and wi-fi connectivity kept getting slower and slower. I'd notice the wifi icon go from white, connected, and then go gray, disconnected, every 10 seconds. I'd stand by my home router with no improvement.
Supposedly, the tablet has a 1 year warranty. Called Samsung Support on October 15, and was told it would be covered under warranty. I shipped it to their repair center, and they received it. 7 days later I receive an email (10/22) stating that after careful consideration, they decided that it's not under warranty. No explanation as to why it's not under warranty. I paid $269 for this, and they want to charge me $172 to fix it. It's only 5 months old.
I tried calling Samsung that same day, and was in the call queue on hold for 30 minutes, when the call dropped. That happened twice. Decided to call first thing in the morning, when they opened. Called and was on hold 27 minutes, before the call was dropped. Called right back, and got through. Checked email (10/23), and saw that Samsung is shipping unrepaired tablet back to me, still no explanation.
Spoke to Samsung Customer Service and the rep was able to give me an explanation. He stated that warranty was voided due to motherboard damage, due to impact, and that it would need replacing. I keep a case on the tablet. It may have dropped from my desk, onto the carpeted floor maybe twice.
The wi-fi chip is soldered on the motherboard. The only way to replace anything on this tablet, is to replace the entire motherboard. All components are soldered on. Very convenient to use this as an excuse to void warranty.
Wish I'd looked at the complaints on reddit, because evidently poor wi-fi connectivity is a common issue with this model of tablet. Avoid Samsung. Some may say that I should have handled with care better. I'm an adult, so I don't intentionally drop my electronic devices. I paid too much money to be careless.
But you live an learn. Last Samsung product for me. This is the second Samsung product that I own, that didn't live up to expectation.

Works great! I don’t do too much that would drain the battery or really push its limits, but it does everything I need it to do and very user friendly.

Bought this as a gift for my grandmother. She wanted a tablet to play games on and this was a great choice! She uses it every day! Just make sure to purchase a good protective case!

I am so happy with my Samsung Galaxy Tablet. I am not a tech person and I am elderly, so I need a user friendly tablet that is easy to set up and use. This tablet is it.

I'm enjoying this tablet. It works a lot better than my old one. A lot more convenient than taking my laptop with me & can get the same amt of work done
