Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 32 GB Wifi Tablet Black (2019)

Well its a great entry level tablet, main advantage to other tablets is its price. Here is my review after 4 months of use.

The Cons:

It was time to upgrade my sons 10 yr old hand me down device. I looked at the same brand since that one served us well, but they were too much money, if he were to spill juice on it or whatever. He just needed something to watch his videos on and play some games. I didn’t want to go with a refurbished, as I’ve never had luck with them, and while the lower quality brands were more economical, I wanted something I knew would would run well and last more than a year or so before the software crashed.

works well for a mid-range Android tablet. good battery life.

I was shopping around for an affordable tablet (under $300) to read comic books and watch videos on. I narrowed my choices down to the budget/entry-level iPad, Kindle Fire 10, and this tablet. The iPads screen (9.7 inches) isnt ideal for full-page comic reading, and I was never a fan of the Fire HD operating system, so I paid a bit more for this Galaxy tablet which runs the latest version of Android.

Mainly bought for my son as a Xmas present, but its a joint gift that we can both use. Love the extra parental controls on this device, and that it has the blue light switch off button for additional eye safety! Works as described, no issues with purchase or delivery... mostly its used for watching Sling TV or Netflix shows, or for playing downloaded games from the Playstore (which was one of the main reasons why I went with this over the Amazon Fire tablets). Its a great product and new enough to be able to continue getting software updates for the foreseeable future (many cheaper tablets have issues with that, Ive found), as well as having the capacity to run enough data loads simultaneously as needed (another issue I found reading reviews on other products). And I got great service, with a 2 year warranty, so overall very pleased with my purchase and would recommend to any new tablet buyers out there!

The tablet was fine for three months. I loved it, then I started getting this strange warning about moisture in the charging port and I couldnt get it to charge. I immediately contacted Amazon who told me to contact Samsung as it was under warranty. I did. Samsung had me send the tablet in to them and after six weeks they emailed me telling me that it couldnt be repaired because the part to fix it is unavailable. They offer an exchange and I agreed. I just wanted my tablet back because I like to read ebooks in bed and I hate reading on my phone. Fast forward over a week and I still dont have my tablet. It turns out, Samsungs service department wasnt fully honest when they told me they were sending the tablet right out to me. They had to get approval for the exchange and once they had that they would contact me sometime within ten business days following the approval. Okay, Im a bit angry over that and thought I had misunderstood, but I did have two witnesses listening in on the conversation who heard the same thing about the tablet being sent over a week ago so Im not completely insane.

I use a phone / Tablet daily and this was such a great device ! . It did become slow over the years I had it but when I first got it and used it daily it worked for emails, web browsing and more . It was fast and the picture is beautiful . This one worked better than the new ones on the market now .
