Overall this tablet is perfect for my husband and me. It's not too big, too heavy or too complicated to use. It was hard to find accessories for it when we got it, but that has nothing to do with the tablet's performance. Surely by now there's more stuff out there for it. It was easy for us to set up, easy to sync and add things from the computer and other devices. There's a micro SD card slot so that's nice if you want more storage. We were a little worried about the speakers being on the back, but that has proven to not be an issue. The speakers are clear and loud. The size is perfect and it's not too heavy to hold laying in bed if you want to read or something. The graphics are great and I haven't had an issue with it stalling to open a webpage or video. The only issue that we've had with it is sometimes it randomly stalls on the lock screen when we're trying to unlock it. It's not that big of a deal, we just have to hit the power button to turn it all the way off then start over again. Only takes about a second to do and we're not sure why it randomly doesn't respond to our stylus or fingertip to unlock it like that every now and then, but it's noticeable. It seems to only happen on the lock screen.

This is my first tablet and my toddler has full use of this. Video's load quickly, pictures come out crisp and clean, eBooks are easy to ready and this is the perfect size. I love how it fits perfectly into my purse. The battery life on this is great!!! It lasts for about 5 to 6 hours on a single charge using it continuously. The camera is easy to use and I love the fact that you can make post it notes on here as well. I plan on using this a lot once school starts. I have to say I am happy that I bought this tablet, my kid has dropped it a few times and works like a charm. You will most definitely get the most for your money buying this tablet. Samsung has done it again, this is way better than the tab 2! This is money well spent. The entire family uses this alot. The picture that is included in the review is a picture I randomly took with this tablet. It takes wonderful pictures.

Customers are negative about its durability, lack of accessories, and limited multitasking capabilities. Some users have experienced choppy performance while playing games or watching movies, and have found it challenging to find accessories specifically designed for the 8-inch model.
