Good tablet for everything – Bought this for a bit of work, play and everything in between! Screen great, does suffer badly from glare and finger prints; did apply a glass screen protector and has gotten better! The battery good life is what I'd call highly acceptable for the amount I use it, I do keep te memory clered and use the Samsung clean tool often and recharge… Read more
at about 50 / 60% to aid the batteries longevity. The charger is ample in charging the battery, the supplied cable has deteriorated to a manky yellow colour and stiffened up... Tried a aftermarket 3m USB cable, but the tablet didnt charge all too well for some reason??
Wished it came in black though, had to apply a chinesium cover to hide the whiteness overall - being used for work did see me pick it up with greasy hands so the case was a necessity!
Overall I really do love this tablet, stpre it in a Case Logic mini laptop case with all its bits in the front pocket and its very convenient to carry while travelling or going places - or to avoid boredom!
The best cost-efficient and performance tablet if you don’t care of the heavy – I bought this tablet Oct 2016 from ebay "The Good Guys". Before I bought this, I had to research many kinds of tablets because my budget was $400. I tried to find a cheap tablet of middle range brands. Actually, this tablet was the best choice but the price was over my budget. Along the way, I found a big sale which is 20% discount of Samsung… Read more
tablet Tab A on ebay. I ordered it for $399 and then picked it from a branch of The Good Guys. I was very happy to be able to give this tablet to my wife as a gift. My wife still has been using it everyday happily.
This tablet has a reasonable display resolution, good wifi speed, and memory, I think only a disadvantage is a little bit heavy. Honestly, if I had got more budget, I would have bought a better performance and lighter tablet. However, I and my wife are very pleased to use it, especially, this is not hot even if we use it more than 5 - 6 hours continuously. I would recommend this tablet, and if you don't care of heavy, it will be the best tablet.
Ideal for home or Travel – I have owned this Tablet for a short time and it has gradually replaced my PC. I love that I can add separate storage via Micro SD Card and store magazines, music and movies on this which are ideal when I travel. I prefer the bigger screen tablet and the battery seems to last forever. I bought a cheap cover and although it can be heavy for its… Read more
dimensions I can hide it anywhere. Whenever I travel it has its own small carry bag. Be selective loading and using Apps you will get better performance and wont eat up the limited space on the hard drive. There may be better Tablets but I bought this on special for under $300 and use it whenever I travel or have trouble getting to sleep at night. The Android system is easy to use, the screen quality is just ok and although not as extensive as Apple the amount of Apps goes on forever. Its fine for YouTube etc I even sometimes use this to control my Smart TV and love using it as a radio or music player paired up to my portable speaker. The speed of the Quad Core Processor is good and there is no lagging. Internet speed is mostly determined by the connection and at home we have the NBN and using the Android Browser it works fast. I have a hard screen cover which I think is essential if you travel. It has never restarted or reset and on startup it is fairly quick. It does sometimes get confused connecting to a WiFi point and I usually manually do this on startup as it takes 10 seconds rather than letting it search. Once I do this it runs faultless. Charging is quick and simple but I can use it for several days without a recharge. All the buttons work fine and the sound is of a standard of other tablets. All in all a well priced product not the best by far but for everyday use it will do the job.

Good tablet, with some flaws – Apps work well and some default apps can be disabled if not needed. Security updates should come for longer. This is not product specific. Needs legislation. Screen too sensitive to slide when tapping. Can take 3-4 taps to launch an app. Similar when sending message/email. Internal storage is limited. This affects how many apps can be installed. I… Read more
sometimes need to reduce to the ones I actually use. This is a trade-off against price, not a criticism. I don't use either camera in the tablet. Prefer phone or camera. I use a purchased security app, not a built in one.
Pretty decent tablet for the price – Got this for my little girl and she loves it. Use it for watching kid shows and drawings. I'll say it's pretty decent tablet for kid nowadays, does it job by keeping them entertained. Show details · 1

High resolution screen. Easy to use if you already own some Samsung phones like me . Long lasting battery. Everything works great. Very happy with it's performance:) Show details
Negative reviews
Quite disappointed – I'm sorry to say that I'm really disappointed with this model...at times seems very sluggish loading my apps...it does the job but I brought this so I didn't have to use my main computer... for me it doesn't measure up to what I wanted yet is ok for my games & quick searching on the net... for the price it's quite an expensive item for playing games... Show details
disappointed – I just bought a new Samsung tablet and it's not working, fuzzy picture,you can't reset it because you can't see the icons and it's all in chinese,waiting for seller to get a refund or a new tablet.I own 2 Samsung tablets and I had never had any problems,that's why I upgraded to a new one Show details
Upgrade – Not a bad product, better for the kids rather than adults unless you don't mind slower/delayed connection. The camera and video quality are not as good in comparison to say an Apple Ipad (which we have upgraded too) However, the kids don't mind and enjoy playing games and watching you tube. Show details

A pretty nice tablet for watching movies – I purchased the tablet for my parents to watch online videos (e.g youtube) and to do everyday web chats with me, so overall speaking, this tablet suits our needs well. The color looks pretty vibrant on the display when watching movies and there is a dobly atoms sound effect available which is great. The general software performance on this table… Read more · 1
is ok and is much faster than their old tab4, so we are satisfied with this purchase. The front LED display got cracked before, I had to purchase a spare display to replace it myself, so you may want to my a screen protector to prevent it from accidental damages.
samsung 10.5 tablet good quality cant complain – So i have never used a samsung phone and wanted to see how good there quality was so i decided to buy an ipad and for the price, quality, and long lasting battery that i need for fishing i believe this tablet is worth it, i would go samsung over apple any day but thats just me as they have plenty of apps and a lot less fluff Show details · 1
Great tablet – I bought this on sale in Nov 2017 and it has been excellent, the display is clear and bright, battery lasts all day with constant usage, it never crashes or fails and the wi-fi is excellent. It has been used many hours per day everyday and has been great to use and no faults. As a first tablet with nothing but smartphones to compare against, I… Read more · 1
couldn't be happier, it is so much better that a smartphone for on-line shopping, web browsing, games and most apps, I can also print to a wi-fi printer. Built in cameras are ok, not as good as an Apple iPhone 6s, but I don't use it often as a camera. Sound from built-in speakers is not so good, so I use a pair of headphones when necessary.
Very good value for money – This tablet satisfy my daily needs, it works very smoothly with a lots of common apps and sync all my emails accounts. Casting you tube video on my smart TV was easy. We found this tablet to be good value for money. The model maybe year 2016 but the Android version is one of the latest updated version. The sound quality is rather flat but when… Read more · 2
we cast it on TV, it does not matter cos we are watching it on TV. For the price we pay we are getting many beautiful moments using this tablet. We are just one of the many who appreciate this Samsung Tablet.

Fabulous tablet!!! – We purchased two of these tablets for our children to use. They are fast to switch on and operate. We have never had any WIFI connectivity issues. The screen is large and easy to use. The picture is excellent quality. Camera takes excellent photos too. Overall a great value tablet costing $299 each. Show details
Does what I want it to – I only use this tablet to play games and watch netflix. I have had this for a year now and it still works as good as new. The battery life is extremely long even when I am watching videos which is good! I like that the screen is very big and the tablet doesn't have a huge border, the camera is good for general picture taking that I do. Show details
Great Tablet!! – Mainly used for surfing the Net, watching movies and emails. Out of the box the Samsung Tab A was easy to setup and has heaps of pre-loaded apps but if you need more specialty type apps you can download from Google Playstore. Movies and pictures look great on the 10.1” screen. Sound from the tablet is only so so but a good set of ear/headphones will enhance your movie or tunes experience. Battery life is excellent.

Amazing love it – Amazing the best of the best and you will not regret it is the beat and it is the best and you will not regret it and it is the best. I don't want to sell it because it's new and has third party apps available to you to use and I think they should do more of these tablets out there. This really satisfied my needs of work and even making a movie. I… Read more
really enjoy what I use on this. Simple to use and you can access your files from there easily and can edit documents. iOS systems can’t do that that’s why I love the Tab A. Also my friend recommended me this tablet and so I bought it. But I didn’t know it was this good. You guys who are reading this should really get this or maybe a newer version of the Tablets made by Samsung. Great work I love it.
Love it – Great product, decent picture quality and graphics, sound quality is good. Easy to operate, plenty of storage space, great touch screen. Hardly use my laptop anymore as this is so handy and easy, kids love it and can navigate through screens easily, i see the " it's not an ipad" comments and no it isn't, i think it's better and alot more budget friendly Show details
So very handy – After buying the tablet l got rid of my laptop as l wasn't using it. So handy to just reach for the tablet when l need to check emails,Google or type a document and use my wireless printer.It fits in my handbag so l can take it on trains etc and watch a movie. I love it. Show details
An appropriately priced tablet – The Samsung Galaxy Tab A is reasonably priced and offers many premium Samsung app perks for free. Its MicroSD slot accommodates an expandable storage of 256GB. Unfortunately the plastic construction does feel somewhat cheap (albeit sturdy), and the audio from a single speaker system is quite weak (best using headphones or a blue tooth speaker with… Read more
this one). The display holds up well, however for the best experience I would recommend loading a custom OS to this tablet.
Lovely Christmas Present – The wife really surprised be with this. She usually has no interest of any kind in tech but she knew I would like it. The reason I wanted Samsung? The screen. Its just beautiful compared to its lesser rivals. Its also light weight. That's important too because I enjoy watching Netflix on it and you can be a t all sorts of odd angles.

Great tablet – I find this tablet very useful for my studies. It is reasonably light. It is typically fast to start up and open apps. The battery is quite good and typically lasts for 8-12 hours of full use (around a week of on and off usage). I would definitely buy it again at the same price. Show details
Nice little tablet – I really enjoy using this tablet, it is heavier than my previous one which was a 9.6" screen but it feels more solid and I have been less prone to dropping it. I prefer the size of the 9.6 as this one is longer but it does the job well. Show details
Good Entry Level Tablet – Good entry level tablet. Has enough speed and memory to start out. Not a great amount of memory but has enough for someone just starting to use this type of technology. I would recommend getting one with more memory for teens etc. I believe that the low price is due to this factor. Show details
Good Tablet – This tablet was cheaper than the others, and I decided to buy it. This tablet does all the basics you need to do, like emailing someone, watching YouTube. All that simple stuff.
