I bought this for my wife for Christmas and it arrived from Adorama with the broken seal. I reported it immediately and Adorama said it would stand behind the product, but it was obvious they weren't acknowledging the fact that the seal was broken. I kept the Galaxy tablet and it worked fine from Christmas to March 31 when it flat out died. The tablet is on its way to Samsung for fix or replacement. In early March I bought my own Galaxy tablet to work mainly with a CamRanger unit. My tablet is working so far for the limited use I give it since I'm not a slave to technology. If this winter ever ends, I plan to use the tablet extensively in photography with the CamRanger. I hope it lasts longer than my wife's tablet. Btw, it works great with a CamRnager.
