Do not buy this tablet or any Samsung products as they do not support their warranty. Tablet screen not working after 5 months with no damage to tablet. Sent away to Samsung who said the tablet had been dropped, even though no evidence or damage to tablet. Samsung then attempted to charge $260 to repair a tablet worth $198 even though it is under warranty. Their customer service is extremely poor, we have 8 Samsung devices in our household which will now be replaced by other brands in future.

This tablet was purchased to take away in our caravan. We use it to watch tv and to find information on were we travel. Runs smoothly and goes everywhere we go.

Bought this last year as part of a bonus offer from Optus and because I have another Samsung tablet, left this in the drawer.

Started using this early this year and after a few months, the past couple of weeks, it started flickering and now the screen is dead. When you push the buttons, it still makes the sounds but still black screen. Did the normal factory reset and reboot, but because of the black screen, you cannot see anything. Googling for solutions, seems that this is a hardware fault. Messaged Samsung and they cannot help as they do not have any service centres in Melbourne.

Paid $328.
Broke the screen.
Samsung quote to replace the screen $260.
80% of the cost of a new one to replace the screen seems a bit harsh.
Might be better to buy a different brand.
Can't really review the performance. Only had it two weeks. Didn't use it for the first week waiting for a case to arrive.

My daughter received this for Xmas. It is a great tablet for watching and streaming and playing games. However when i use it with her to google something she is interested in, I find it lags a bit. Like I am typing way to fast for the keyboard to keep up. Which I'm not. Just a standard speed like most adults I guess. She doesn't have that problem as she is still learning where all the keys are. Sometimes it freezes aswell if I try to jump between multiple screens or apps. As I said, Its perfect for kids and she LOVES it. But I wouldn't purchase it for myself. It just can't keep up.

You either have to pay over 600 for a decent samsung tab or buy this slow to the death tablet.

Even switching between small apps is a pain and it always bothers me.

Would buy s6 maybe.

The tablet is used for our 4 year old daughters video viewing on the YouTube kids app.

It more than satisfies our needs playing smoothly with great sound, graphics, battery life. and smooth trouble free operation.

It is a perfect size for little hands.

The only complaint is that we found that a solid childproof case can be difficult to come across.

Good quality and reliable tablet. Battery life is great. I bought this mainly for reading watching movies or tv shows on netflix. Works well, however very slow if you are using it for anything typing-related. I highly recommend this if you need a cheap tablet for recreational use. I bought this for $249 back in December 2019. I wouldn't spend more for it though

Excellent value for money for my needs (wanting a wider device than a smartphone for ease of reading emails, web content etc.).
This is my first encounter with ANDROID. Learning curve is not as steep as I imagined at first, because there are lots of helpful tips and tricks YOUTUBE videos etc.
Quick and painless purchase and delivery organised through "BuyMobile, Australia". I had a few questions relating to specifications, which were responded to within a day or so.
Lightning delivery to me, here in regional Tasmania, from overseas.

Have not had it long and so far I love it and can't really find fault. I upgraded from a tab a 8.0 I'd bought in 2016. Screen size is great for movies and it has alot of new things I wasn't expecting.

5 weeks later and I still love it. I recommend it

I mainly use my tablet for watching Netflix and Youtube. I also check emails and occasionally Skype and video chat with it. The apps are easy to download and work well on this device. In comparison to my previous tablet, a Kindle Fire the picture is not as sharp but it still does the job nicely. It is superior to the Kindle Fire due the fact that it doesn't have 101 Amazon apps on it that use all your storage and can't be removed. The volume is not super loud but it is sufficient and so far so good.

Bought this to help in our son's home schooling. Originally wanted to get an ipad mini but for a big price difference, decided to give this one a go.

The pros: low cost, decent display (8/10 for me), you can hold the tablet with one hand, upgradeable storage,

The cons: slightly sluggish processing power but for the price, can't really complain

Overall it is a good value tablet that is suitable for everyday basic usage

Tends to loose pic or does not show pic despite having sound in background. Not sure if it's a RAM issue or if it just lacks the processing power needed to run Netflix.

Bought the Galaxy A from Telstra end of Jan 2020. On 6 April it just went blank. Local Telstra shop could not fix and have sent to Samsung. May take a month. I'm expecting it to be fixed or replaced. Was working well before this happened.

We use this when on road trips to keep the kid entertained. Also, use it for skype with the grandparents. Battery life is great, quick to charge and very easy to set up.

I got this tablet mainly for reading the news and occasionally games. It can sometimes be a bit buggy or slow to load new pages, but overall it works really well. It was very good value for the price and I'm pretty happy with it.

Our 1st Samsung product and tablet screen suddenly went blank/dead during use. Sent to Samsung but they didn't replace. Tablet was in as new condition and always kept in a heavy duty protective case. Samsung also stated that it couldn't be repaired. So no warranty or repair options. Suggest avoiding this tablet from a build/quality perspective and poor customer support, which I'm really disappointed about.
