I bought it with the intention of using it to study as a portable laptop replacement - combined with a bluetooth mouse and keyboard. It does an amazing job of this.Battery life is even better than I expected, it typically lasts around 10-11 hours of screen use per charge - so even if you use it to study, browse the web and watch some TV, you'll still make it through the day without being tethered to the wall. A casual user will easily last days between charges.The screen is 1080p, with good brightness and reasonably deep blacks. My unit has no screen leak, dead pixels et cetera. Great for watching TV and for looking at photos.

Planned as a Christmas gift for someone who then decided on something else. This is a 2016 design. Bought in 2018 (not from Amazon) as a new product from a major UK store in a Black Friday deal. Kept it myself to replace an ageing Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 tablet. Essentially this is a solid device with some quirks. The main of which, to me, is the design is based around portrait mode as if it were a phone: the Home, Back and Recently used apps buttons are along the face of a narrow end; the stereo speakers are, too close together, on the edge at the same end while the front facing camera and Samsung branding is on the face at the other end. If used in portrait mode on a stand with the tablet the 'right way up'

This is a great tablet for the money....Fast and responsive enough....Problems are silly design faults.... i.e. navigation controlls fixed in portrait mode and not backlit.... ok if tablet is being used with a case/stand in landscape mode but if held with two hands in landscape mode.... too easy to hit the previous/app. history buttons by mistake.... That said... build quality is good... as you would expect from Samsung.... and user interface is easy to navigate... apart from one major flaw... that is the storage location cannot be set to sd card by default... Meaning if you want to store photos/downloaded files etc. on sd card.... you have to open the file manager and manually transfer them to the sd card...

The tab itself is good. It is exactly what I wanted. It is clear to read. The sound reproduction is good. I use it for teaching the Listening element of English as a foreign language and, as I become used to the apps, is becoming easier to use than having to play the listening texts through either my PC or my laptop where the volume is not as good as the tablet.Criticisms are these. The seller used UBS to deliver. The UBS trace your delivery link still had the tablet in Seville (I am 2 hours south of Seville) as the driver was at my door delivering the package. if I had believed the link, I would have missed the delivery.To access the User manual, one has to download it, either onto the tablet of the PC,

I absolutely love this tablet! I refuse to pay Apple prices for an iPad. And had therefore put owning a tablet to the back of my mind.Then, this popped up in the sale. At roughly half the price of an equivalent iPad. It caught my attention. Reading the specs and owning a Samsung S8 phone I decided to give it a try. I'm so glad I did!Whilst it doesn't have as many features or options for customistation as my S8. It still has the potential to be 99% as functional and as practical as my phone.I use it for games, steaming live sport, catch up TV and box sets. As well as shopping and social media. But where it really impressed me was the quality of the video.

When my old tablet passed away unexpectedly, I was shocked at the feeling of slight panic that gripped me. I am not a techie type; I don't have a smart phone, just a basic talking thing to call the AA if I ever break down, not even a TV; none of the things that most people seem to need to function. But I realised, when the light faded on my old Galaxy tab, that I am dependant on modern technology as well.One of the reasons for my panic was that I would have to get to grips with new technology. I was so relieved that there seems very little difference between the old and the newer. The most significant improvement, as far as I am concerned, is that the charging port is on the short end,

Well, after having a very temperamental iPad mini that only would do what it felt like that day and me almost throwing it out the window I wanted something cheap, and as I have a Samsung phone I find android easier. I'm rapidly going off apple, ditched the phone too. I think for the price of this tablet it's a real bargain. Quick, plenty of storage and room for the sd card (I hate all this cloud storage)The screen is nice and responsive and it's all very familiar.Pictures, well , not the greatest but are passable, but I didn't get it for taking pictures on.It's a nice weight, I'm still getting used to the size as coming from an iPad mini it seems huge. I do prefer a square-ish screen but I'll get used to it.

I bought this for my mother direct from Amazon (i.e. NOT from a MarketPlace seller) after her hand-me-down iPad 2 became more or less unusable. Running Android 7.0, it really does represent excellent value for money. Even on my parent's paltry 5 Mbps broadband connection, it's surprisingly fast with apps opening in a flash. You can have lots of apps running concurrently and it copes with ease. The screen is bright and it has a massive 7300 mAh battery that runs for hours before it needs recharging. It only has 16GB of built in storage and almost half of it is taken up by the operating system but it does have a MicroSD card slot and you can double the storage with a MicroSD card for less than a tenner.

Easy to use and configure tablet. Reasonably fast. Admittedly not enough built in/onboard memory. You easily use up 16GB, but you can expand wroth a 200GB memory card. It has an extensive amount of apps through access to Google play store. Good quality camera, not as good as good get on a mobile phone, but you wouldn't expect that. The front camera is good enough for video calling and is good quality. Quite loud speaker, I'm deaf so this is essential. The wide-screen design is prefect for watching videos, browsing the Internet and reading emails. Overall an excellent tablet. I'm glad I went for this one over the new iPad 5 that came out. Over £140 saved with all the features I need.

The tablet came set to Spanish, the startup screen did not offer English among the many language choices. There was no manual or anything else to assist. I was obliged to set up all the initial options by defaulting, skipping, or guessing in Spanish until I eventually got to the menu screen. Then, with the assistance of Google Translate I finally managed to get the default language set to English - all-in-all a very stressful start to the Galaxy experience, especially as the device is a gift and I could have presented it without starting it up and been significantly embarrassed.Why sell to a UK purchaser set up in Spanish? Why is English not in the setup menu although it exists deeper down?

Bought as a replacement for a Galaxy Tab E which with quad core processors just wasn't quite 'cutting it' anymore!The Tab A has Octa Core (8) processors and works a treat!Arrived with Android 7, but upgraded to Android 8. Handles 'time wasting' games like Candy Crush easily. Haven't tried it with graphic intense games. Expect it to perform well with Amazon Prime Video and other 'catch up' TV apps!Why waste money - if you're looking for a 'capable' tablet to watch video/movies/catch up tv and play occasional games - you COULD buy the MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE Galaxy Tab S4 - but why?***Forgot to say that the seller BONTEK, posted this item quickly,

The picture is excellent, I can use it for movies if I want and the speakers are good enough to hear in a small room or within a few feet. I mainly use it for sheet-music so don't push it hard - but my son has played games and watched movies and it's performed flawlessly. Side by side with a similar spec iPad this tablet matches it in every way, for 1/4 of the price.Battery-wise, we travelled for 5+ hours watching movies and playing games and no problem. I don't do that much, but 'day-to-day' I use it for gigs twice a week - so screen is on permanently for 2+ hours - and 2-4 hours rehearsal between - and I can do 2 weeks between charges which seems pretty good to me.Can't comment on camera etc.

Not the latest version but then strangely the upgrade does not have S pen support. Very happy with battery life. Not had to recharge it yet! Touch screen is very responsive. Screen not easy to read in bright sunlight but better than my phone. I have not yet tested increasing screen brightness.I would have preferred a Windows device but nothing comes close to competing on battery life, weight and flexibility at this price point. Also it comes bundled with Android Office as an extra bonus.I've combined it with 128Gb SD card, case and keyboard. Set up and automatic updates were very straightforward.I find it a very capable portable office.

When researching tablets I thought I needed a much more expensive one than this one but luckily I went into the Samsung shop in Edinburgh and the girl I spoke to asked me what I wanted to do with it and then told me the Tab A would be fine for me. The one they were selling in the shop was the 2019 model with 1.8Ghz processor but when I looked on Amazon later I found this one the 2016 Tab A with a 1.6Ghz processor so decided to try this as it was £50 cheaper than the newest model and it has been excellent, much better than I could have imagined. I'm glad I didn't spend £400 to £500 on a tablet.I have used it to watch TV on SkyGo and the battery lasted all day.
