okay,so this tablet is a complete waste of time do not buy this! you can't game and the system is out of date,my parents got me this for christmas and i really liked it at first,but 2 years later,the screen cracks and it breaks,everytime i wanna play roblox there is a unaccepably huge amount of lag and it lags out or kicks me out of the game,i wanted to make a video,but the system isn't compatible! your system is out of date and the screen cracks so easily! 1 year ago i even had to go to best buy to repair it since the charging port broke! and now it's still broken and cannot charge,another thing i have to complain about is the battery time! i have to go to work with my mom and it wouldn't last an hour and randomly died at 50 percent after 5 months of having it

Molly,tablet breaks easily and cannot game

i have used a number of different tablets and this has been by far the worst tablet. i am a heavy user of netflix and amazon video. this tablet is nearly impossible to use with the prime app. it crashes constantly when simply trying to load the app. i got this as a gift, if i had known i would have exchanged it.

SLOW

I bought this for my granddaughter for Christmas. When I first purchased it, I opened it, charged it and put some apps on which I thought she would like, I then shut it off. When she opened it for Christmas, I tried for 45 minutes to connect to wi fi. I finally was able to get connected was not impressed with the tablet at all. Was very slow and buggy. I set up the Samsung Kids subscription and that won't even work. You click on a downloaded game and it won't respond. I downloaded an app for an augmented reality book I bought her and that didn't work at all. I have it downloaded on my Note 10+ and it works beautifully. It also ran very warm.

Quite Disappointing So Far

The kids software that comes with it is not intuitive and frequently locks up.  Of course this worthless software comes with a monthly subscription.  If you are buying this for kids, don't be fooled by the Samsung name, the low price, and the included games.  It probably is useful as a low cost tablet for beginners, but not as marketed for young kids.  I was able to download kids games from the Play Store that were much more intuitive, fun, and stable, but it is an out of date tablet, is slow and still locks up occasionally.  The kids play with our iphones.  There must be better low cost options.

Don't buy based on the Samsung name and included software!

The software is outdated and the panel seems glitchy

Would not recommend

Terrible  device to be honest I don't even know why they are selling it   it doesn't even have enough power for you to use Twitter or Facebook smoothly all videos are choppy it's pathetic and sad

Can't even do most basic tasks

I bought 2 of these before Christmas for my 7 year old and 4 year old. They very quickly took them, but the first concern was who's was which. I wish there was more options for color of tablet/silicone case. Second concern was the Samsung Kids app, you get a month free and that's it. I feel that if I'm buying a tablet specifically for kids, it should have the app without extra fees. Third, the micro SD cards do not click in not matter what you do. I've had to tape the flap shut so they don't pop out. Fourth, memory (RAM), there are some apps that my children can't run because it doesn't have enough memory. I've removed apps, closed apps, etc, but they got frustrated quickly and were used for maybe a month and then put aside for other electronics/toys. Fifth, battery life/charging. These quickly run out of battery life, and when attempting to charge, if you are on any outlet/power strip with another cord plugged in, they do not charge. I had a similar problem with an earlier Samsung tablet, but that didn't happen until almost 2-3 years of owning it.
That all said, I believe this is a good tablet for younger kids (4 and under) who will use it minimally each day.

Better for younger kids

...until the 2019 update. Can't change parental timer settings without WiFi. Timer intervals WAY less useful than they were before the update. Apps often fail to appear on the home screen. We've only had the tablet for 4 months and the update made it feel like a clunky older tablet. Total fail on the upgrade. My 6-year-old loved it until then.

This WAS great

I bought this as a gift for my daughter for Xmas a year ago.  I should have bought a different tablet.  I watched tons of Youtube reviews, read all of kinds of reviews, but I still regret this purhcase.  Here is why: 
It runs on KitKat.  Did you know andriod has diffrent platforms?  I didn't. Now I do.  The Endless apps (Endless ABC, Endless #s, Endless reader aren't supported.  Those are some great apps... and that is just the tip of the ice burg as to the apps that are not supported.  
I can no longer add movies to my daughters collection.  We travel a lot and movies are awesome for road trips.  We have a SD card in to expand the memory.  Every movie we have is on the chip, so why in the world can't I add more movies.  THE MOVIES ANYWHERE APP IS NO LONGER OPTIMIZED FOR THIS PLATFORM. I am beyond irritated.  Do yourself a favor and spend the extra dough and get a better tablet....  Kinda wishing I went with the amazon fire tablet now.  

Long story short.  This tablet no longer fits our needs  and is in fact, no longer really "in date" for the latest and greatest apps out there.

Please Read, What I wish I Would Have Known

I bought this new for $65, it isnt worth more than that. Decent tablet for entertainment. Don't pay more than $70, it's not worth it. Not sure how it handles high end games, probably not too well. I use it for YouTube and streaming movies/music. It works well enough for those things. Be sure to disable/uninstall  the built-in apps. It will free up much needed space and free up ram.

Decent Budget Tablet

Really designed for kids. Great features. Just a little slow

Durable and resistent

It was great while it lasted, but recently we have had nothing but problems with the thing not powering on any longer. It charged and now nothing. Seems doing google searches for fixes all come to same conclusion, if button combination doesn't reset it, open it up and remove the power cable from the battery to the device. Taking it in to get it repaired over and over is no fun option either.  Tell me there is a better solution Samsung, seriously contact me.

Samsung Kids Tablet was great

I bought 2 of these about a year ago, you cannot take screenshots , most games only run fine, this tablet can do very little with 3d games and the storage in completely awful with many apps not being able to be installed on the sd card if you have one in. The low amount of ram causes it to have poor multi tasking and the outer camera is very poor in quality. Do not buy this for $150 from fingerhut, it is an awful price for an tablet like this, really this tablet is only worth maybe $50. The resolution is an awful 600p, 720p is standard for low end phones and tablets but its screen is awful, the tablet can barely keep up in youtube at 720p, it is not my internet it is the tablet's awful performance. I am very upset that I paid a total of $300 for 2 of these from fingerhut.

Completely awful performance

I have THREE of these tablets and I love them. We have tried other tablets that were supposed to be kid friendly and they ended up being frustrating for my kids or ridiculously slow. With this tablet my kids can do everything themselves, they're simple to operate and I don't have to change games for them every 5 minutes. It's great for long road trips. I loved my kids' so much I bought one for my niece too.

Best kids tablet

We could never access the games and my credit card keeps getting charged for the service. It was really only useful for a month and then we started getting charged over and over for the service. Still couldn’t use it after being charged multiple times and calling customer support. Trying to get out of the subscription now. Would just purchase an iPad and not this.

I bought this tablet 3 weeks ago. It arrived promptly. It was easy to set up. It is a nice size it can be carried around easily. I'm having issues with syncing one of e-mail accounts. It was working fine for a couple of weeks and then stopped. Aside from that everything else works as expected. Value purchase.

Easy to set up.

This is not family friendly as the product name would suggest. It will not work with Family Link from Google. So you can not adequately control the apps and access on it. 

Also, it doesn't work with some of the cooler kids applications like the Kano Coding app needed for the Harry Potter coding Wand.

Not family friendly

I got this tablet for my grandson along with a car mount.  After less than 2 months, it would no longer charge.  Samsung has had the tablet twice now and have yet to fix the issue but still have the tablet.  I'm so angry about this.  I am a loyal Samsung user for their products and this device is and the support i have received are terrible.

Quit working after 2 months

I have only had it since the day after Christmas. It gets really hot while on it samsung charger that it came with and don't even bother trying to use it while on charger.
It won't stay caught up let alone gain battery. The battery doesn't last very long at all. Samsung has definitely failed with this battery. I also have apps failing and closing suddenly. I thought I was doing a good thing changing from Amazon fire to android but I really think I might have been better off getting another kindle.

Not great

Android 4.4 is so out of date. Really sad that you haven't pushed an update. Newer apps don't support such archaic versions of Android.

Poor Upgrade Options

Bought 2 of these for my kids for Christmas they have only had them 2 days and the tablets keeps shutting off and on fully charged, they're slow, and they freeze even when they aren't on them they can put them down it's just fine but when they pick them up the screen is frozen. It happens to both so tabs so I truly wouldn't recommend buying waste of money and really screwed up Christmas for them

Terrible

Kids app is glitchy and there was no 3 month free trial in box. Will be returning.

Glitchy software and no 3 month trial in box.

I got this a month ago and it has too much lag with it!

Terrible CPU

Is a Christmas present for my son.  Got it all set up ready to go.  Easy set up. Fast shipping.

Love it.

All of the games are in the Samsung Kids App that you CANNOT use even the "Free" trial on without putting in your credit card number. So it doesn't come with any games. Only basic apps like a clock and a calculator. The description made it sound so wonderful, but it's really just a regular Android tablet with a bumper on it. I just downloaded stuff off the Play Store.  I could have bought a cheaper Kids Tablet if all I was going to use was the Play Store.

Scam

I got this for my daughter when she was 4 now shes 7 and the tablet is in freat condition still. After dropping it many time the rubber bumper actually works at keeping the tablet safe. I will be upgrading her tablet this year wish that samsung had another version of this tablet

Great for kids all ahes

Worth for the price . Spent lot time to full charge (more than 6 hours).After a couple of months it beings to lag .8Gb is not enough,Best in browning,camera is ok for short range but not for long range.sound is not loud enough. Display

Worthy for price

I got this last year and it really is great for games

great features

This tablet is for my daughter's use and she is legally blind.  She can only read messages or texts using invert colors setting, but it seems this tablet does not have that feature.  The talk back setting is only good to find things on google but it does not activate or deactivate things on the tablet.  I am disappointed.

Not good for a low vision

no table of contents to show you what the icons are on the desk top, no tech help from Samsung either
