Great value, nice size. Let down by memory option

Update of my previous review.. Pro. Great value. Great to find a small tablet for reading books, watching movies. Con. Probably androids fault, but ... you can put a massive 256 or 512 GB sad card in, but only store media on it. You can not A. Format it as internal memory, like other brand androi...

Official Response by Samsung - BV

Hello there Razorback, Thank you for finding the available time out of your lively day to share your sentiments with us about your Samsung Galaxy Tab A. We appreciate your directness as we strive to provide the very best products with superior functionality on the market to our customers while we remain committed to constant innovation. Our goal is for our customers to feel like they are having the most incredible experiences while using our products. Samsung products have a 12-month warranty for manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship, linked below. If your phone or tablet's touchscreen is frozen or does not respond to touch, it doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong with your device. It could be something as simple as a faulty app or cracks in the screen causing the problem. When your phone or tablet freezes or crashes, it can be really nerve-wracking. The good news is that this can probably be fixed without having to send your it in for service. Performing simple actions like rebooting and updating the software are just a couple of the things you can do to prevent freezes and crashes in the future. For your convenience, I have included a few links below that contain some articles titled, "Galaxy phone or tablet's screen is frozen or responds too slowly," "How to keep your Galaxy phone or tablet from slowing down," and "Samsung phone or tablet freezes and crashes" that I believe that you may find helpful in resolving what you may be experiencing with your Galaxy Tab A. Feel free to contact Samsung Support if you would like additional assistance after reviewing the articles provided. Thank you for being a cherished Samsung customer. - Debra smsng.us/Samsung-Support smsng.us/Warranty-Info smsng.us/Facebook-Messenger smsng.us/Twitter-Messages smsng.us/Samsung-Community https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01001765/ https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00078985/ https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01001416/

What happened to top notch 8-in Samsung tablets?

i've waited years to replace my s8.4 tablet. it runs circles around this tablet that is almost 8 years newer. in fact i am writing this review on my note 8 because the newer tablet has been trying to log on to the samsung site for 20 minutes. this tablet is slow, has a tft 1280x800 display, is heavier, larger than the old s8.4. i'm trying the a7 light in hopes it will be more responsive. but the a7 has a disappointing display & is heavier, larger & thicker than my s8.4. i don't want to have to buy an ipad mini, but samsung is giving me no choice in their product selection. i can't wait long as my s8.4 battery is getting weak. please samsung make an 8-in premium tablet. i know you have the technology. i just don't know if you have the will.

I bought this not so long ago to replace an aging IPad. I quickly found this unit very versatile. I can watch FHD video, play games and even use it as navigation device. I tether Wi-Fi on the go with my ATT phone and it works efficiently as a navigation device. Very happy I bought this model.
