Pretty good but not perfect

published

Well it's lasted ok for 6 months which is better than some dreadful shoddy phones I've bought. Mostly pretty good value for money but definitely slower working than Samsung phone. Not much storage for apps really though and the camera could be better.
Holds it's charge reasonably well.
Pretty good.

Great travel companion

published

This tablet served as my online "everything" while I was travelling. I did my emails, my banking, booked emergency hotel rooms, skyped home and watched movies on it. It served me perfectly and has been charged in several different countries and all over Australia with zero problems. - that's impressive! I don't even keep it in a case, just a felt sleeve. The screen was so much nicer than the others when i bought it that the decision was easy and it has certainly panned out!

ok, charger not great

published

i bought this second hand but was in new condition and every thing was great, after 6 months when i plugged the charger in i looked at it hours later and it wasnt charging, i googled it and the device wasnt recognising the charger as a samsung charger (even though it is the chrger that came with the tablet and had been working up until that point) so it was charging incredibly slowly. the tablet and cord are undamaged... but it makes it pretty unusable if it takes so long to charge since you chew through the battery in a few hours if you play games such as candy crush on it

Samsung Galaxy Tab A

published

The speakers on the Galaxy Tab A devices get reasonably loud, and sound pretty good overall. These tablets also bring with them quite a few incentives on the software side, including the availability of six Microsoft applications pre-installed, along with the option to claim 100 GB of free cloud storage for 2 years with the use of Microsoft OneDrive. The great battery life is a great feature, however the low resolution displays and slower performance make it hard to justify the high price points when compared to the competition.

Not bad but didnt even last a year.

published

Good little tablet but after a few months it started freezing and glitching alot and when we tried to claim it on warranty they wouldn't accept it as there was a crack in the screen. Either way handy little tablet but didnt have much space and didn't even last a year.

Excelent tablet; even includes 4G phone connectivity!

published

A friend had an old Samsung 7.0" tablet that she liked. She wanted to upgrade. We checked around (note: check the product codes for different shops; they are selling 7.0" tablets for Samsung but they neglect to mention which year and model) and bought from JB Hi-Fi.

My friend loves it. Feels great and she knows she can rely on it for class. She's been using it happily for months now. We even found it will take a sim card and make phone calls etc which is something that wasn't promoted on the website. :D

Highly recommended

Runs out of space

published

Got this for my son he fulled it with apps in no time. Got the expanded sd card in it but some of the pre loaded apps can't be moved. Constantly asks to free up space. Camera is also a bit pathetic. On the plus side, it was really cheap for a samsung and he finds it easy to use as it is the same as my phone.

Really good for a travel Tablet

published

I use this Tab for travel/work and it gets the job done for me! It's small enough that traveling with it isn't a hassle. I have my portfolio loaded onto it so I can bring it to interviews with me and showcase my work without bringing a clunky laptop. The only downside is it's camera quality is pretty bad but I never use the camera on it so that didn't bother me.

Good

published

Easy to use. Good product. Only flaw so far is after warranty the screen got a line through it not a crack. Apart from that its got heaps of free apps to choose from. It seems to manage most games well. Updates to software so far have not caused any unwanted issues. So overall happy with product.

Nice little Tab

published

The battery life is good. I was surprised they still sell the old models as new. But I really like this one. It runs well and is very easy to take with you when travelling. A good thing too is where the power plugs in. So you can keep using it whilst plugged in, it plugs in at the top. Only thing is the sound is not as good as the larger models. but you have to expect that what with the price of it being so low. The storage is very low only 8 gig.

Good Value, Nothing special

published

Great tablet for its value.
Doesn't have anything special about it, it is just a normal Tablet.
Runs game and apps great, although I haven't used this tablet in a while, it ran everything great!
Didn't have any lag when navigating through the tablet, speedy and reliable in my opinion!

Great for the price.

published

Well, it's just a tablet. Nothing special, really, but it can be bought for a really good price. Being a Samsung, it looks much more expensive than it is. I can't say it looks particularly amazing or has excellent features as it is just a tablet as I said before, but it's the best VFM in my opinion..

Nice compact tablet for media purposes.

published

Bought this for my mother for watching and streaming videos. The size is just right for her hands and screen resolution is good for the price I paid. Product is also pretty lightweight and easy for her to carry around with one hand. She was using an older version ipad before and often commented that it was a bit too heavy for her liking. Camera could be better but not a mojor drawback.

Great tablet (phablet)

published

My 10 year old was wanting a first tablet/ phone to play games, music, take photos and video and watch youtube videos. This ticked all the boxes and is a nice size for her smaller hands to manage. We are extremely happy with our purchase as its priced well. We managed to get a shockproof case as well. It travels well too.

Good product for limited use

published

This is a handy Tab for simple use. I have given it to my daughter and she quite likes it. Performance wise its not very great and cannot compete with its own higher versions. It hangs at times and requires a re-start. Performance is also average not very fast like other samsung Tabs.

Small but Great

published

This is good size and weight to carry on and easy to grip. All function and programs are easy to use.
Also, this has long battery life. After falling it on tile floor, the screen has no crack at all and works fine (has good durability)
This is still cheaper than Apple iPad but same quality.

Great little tablet

published

Bought one as the screen size was great for single hand, and it certainly fits well. Not too much juice in the processor, but it wouldn't be shabby to perform daily tasks / internet browsing / movie watching stuffs. The battery holds charge pretty well and would easily last a few days for general uses.

It's for normal life in your house

published

It is for laptop in house. Sometimes I bring this one in my bag. But I can't use it valuable. Because I can only use internet with WIFI.
And also this tablet is so small screen and big vessel. It makes me sick of it easily. Either you want to use it in house, don't buy it.

A valued priced tablet

published

For the value this is a great product as i have bought it for my mum's daily use for going facebook and playing app store games. She absolutely loves it and the camera quality isn't the greatest but does the job. If you are trying to find a tablet for work and other business related stuff that requires word document etc i would not suggest it as it is a bit slow when opening applications.

Purchased this tablet just to play videos on the go. When apps are update it works fine. You do need an additional sim card aswell. Little bit slow compared to the newer models but for the price you pay and does a really good job. Very happy with thw product.

I bought it for my boy Christmas present. He love it. At the beginning system is fast, but after long time, system become slowly and slowly, Which is not good, Ipad doesn't have this problem unless you update system. Battery is not too bad by the way. Good for kids.
