Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1" 16GB Tablet with S Pen, Exynos 7870 Octa-Core 1.6GHz, 3GB RAM, Android 6.0 Marshmallow, White

2020-12-01T19:00:00

this is a great tablet. i bought it because it has a high quality digitizer and a pen included, which is helpful to my business. it still runs fast enough to handle all of the apps i need it for, and even some games. the only quibble i have is that it has a tiny amount of internal storage. since most apps are placed on the internal drive versus external, that little thing fills up with just a few apps on it. caches and memory dumps from most apps still rely on the internal storage, which is wholly inadequate these days for space-hungry apps like ms word and autodesk sketchbook. that said, i'd still recommend this tablet for anyone who needs a good, quality-built android device for slightly more than casual use.

I have had my tablet for over 1 year now. Love all the features and how fast ti can be. Easy to set up and connect to wifi. It works well with all my other samsung products. Love tablet and it stays charged long. Reasonable price too. Love the color and pen to draw or just write down notes.

The Samsung Tablet Galaxy has limited access, to apps, that I have to use.

I only had this a week before it stopped working. I returned it today. I'm very disappointed, I've always been a fan of Samsung. Also I didn't realize it was a 2016 model. I can't believe there still selling a tablet that outdated.

Would never recommend. Simply, 8 gb is almost useless (the tablet O/S itself uses over 3 gb). I am constantly clearing cache to free up more space. I have 64 gb SD card, but most apps can't be worked from the card. I love the convenience of a tablet, bUT I'd never go below 16 gb. Totally frustrating. As well, the battery life is poor, both on my tablet and my Samsung phone. Samsung, you've got work to do.

My son gave me this a Christmas gift in 2017 and it's still going great. I love it, because it's small and good for my hand size. I'm probably going to update this year, just because.

I decided to buy this little tablet because it was compact. I was getting tired of how small my Apple iPod touch was when I traveled abroad. The first time I saw this device was in Spain at a Landmark, they had these for audio guides. Once I went back home, I did my research, and saw that it was on sale. I am going to use this mini tablet for when I travel. I noticed that this tablet has a radio icon, it plays local radio stations. Which I thought was cool. One of the reason why I bought this. However, there are flaws, the hard drive memory is ONLY 8 mb, very small, I wish the device memory could be 16. I’m happy that there is a mini SD card slot to widen the memory... and since the Device is like 3 yrs old. The OS is a bit outdated. It’s using lollipop android OS , I really wish Samsung can upgrade the OS to a more current version. Since Samsung galaxy 10 smartphones are out, I thought they can upgrade their tablet to the same technology as their smartphones. I feel so outdated using it. The music quality is great, the photo quality is stunningly clear and sharp. The only thing that bothers me is the outdated operating system. Everything else is cool. You can purchase it. But please do you research and homework first, and please shop around.

I have other products for ereading purposes but wanted one for when I would like to view color ebooks. I loaded MoonReader, Nook, and Kindle. I uninstalled updates to other pre-installed apps I will not be using which even though it does not completely remove the app, it reduced the size of the app. I only use in Airplane mode when I am reading, and the battery life is great. Only Kindle and MoonReader appear to allow you to store books on SD card. You can read online how to sideload books for Moonreader and Kindle. Due to the older Android OS you cannot move applications to the card. Samsung should really release a newer OS for this model. A later version OS would permit you to run applications from the SD card. So be prepared for little to no space for applications, but if your using in similar fashion to me, you have plenty of space for ebooks dependent on SD card you use. Have to admit I am using this with my black and white ebooks now as well. There is a display setting in the Samsung for book reading, but even Moonreader has a blue light filter in their settings. For the price, I think it is a great value. I do have a S10 and S2 as well from Samsung.

Brand new from Samsung, had it for two days now, constant dropping of WIFI, while other devices both Android and IOS work perfectly. Apps are slow to open, some won't open, and a few I can't even get to download (Ebay for one). Being a huge Samsung fan, anda past/present customer this is dissapointing. Will update this review as warranted.

I returned it for a full refund because it could not maintain a steady wifi plus it would not permit any print service to be installed.

This is an excellent tablet that has worked well for me for several years. The 7" size is perfect for me, anything larger won't fit in a pocket. I use this mostly for email and some web browsing while traveling. Unfortunately, when I wanted to update to a newer model, the operating system and specifications for the new 7" tablets is no better than the 3 year old device I already have. Too many apps are coming up as no longer compatible with anything older than Android 6.

This tablet is easily worth the price, as it's brand new. Highly recommend for Android users.

I have an older version of this model - SM-T230NU - and wouldn't give it up for anything. I do a lot of "remote" hiking, where I'm on the trail for days with nothing but my backpack, and this tablet goes with me. It's invaluable to use after the sun goes down and before it's time to crawl into the sleeping bag. I use it for the eReader (Overdrive, MP4 movies, Animated Knots (by Grog) application, and a few strategy games that make me think. Battery life is unbeatable - I get about 30 minutes of video for 5% of the battery, and have no issues using it for the entire backpacking trip from the initial full charge. I'm glad to see Samsung still offering the 7" model - it's PERFECT for holding and not needing to squint, and there are a lot of us out there who don't want a huge screen in front of us. I'm also happy they offer one that's wi-fi only, because this tablet, for my use, is never connected (no need to) except when I need to check out more eBooks from my library. Combined with my Fintie leatherette folder this unit fits perfectly within, I'm a happy Samsung customer. I also take this tablet everywhere Igo

any device with less then 32g internal memory is worthless in todats world! the external memory even though great for pictures and video you take wont help you with how many apps you can download or movies you can download. Dont buy anythind with less the 32g internal memory!

I didn't expect much from this tablet, as it is a cheaper price tag, and on a lower version of Android than my phone is. However I have no complaints: it runs well, battery life is surprisingly good. It does all the things I need it to for school. I usually find tablets have awkward interfaces but I really like the setup for this one. Would definitely recommend.

Purchased in June, 2018. I love everything about this tablet but one, but this one is the deal killer: the system software (and bloatware and miscellaneous files use up so much of the internal drive space I cannot install a modest amount of apps. I consistently am down to 500 mg. I had to delete Google Sheets, Twitter, Reddit, Instagram, Kindle and Audible, even after I moved what I could to an SD card. I do not want to use the browser instead of an app.

I bought this thinking 8 gigs is fine if I can just add an SD card to it. But, because it's runs Lollipop and never got the marshamallow upgrade, the SD card is useless because Lollipop won't let you put apps on the SD card. If you want to actually use this tablet for things other than reading, you should find another tablet. I'm horrible disappointment with the tablet and disappointed that Samsung didn't release a marshmallow upgrade to this tablet when it was released just a couple months before marshmallow was released. I don't think I'll ever purchase another samsung device.

Super old version of android means you can't use family features to control it. Very low storage plus a lot of forced samsung apps means you can't have very many games on it

Loads fast, which was one of my main concerns in purchasing a tablet, I also wanted a strong battery,which my Samsung has. My tablet met all the specifications i desired in a tablet. I researched tablets for about a week, all brands and models. The Samsung was my final choice and it has proved to be the correct choice.
