  • Great tablet the A8 is quick and responsive
    Reviewed by Johnny-C - March 19, 2022

    The A8 has great battery life quick charging This is my first Samsung tablet I originally bought a 32GB but returned it no problem. Within the 30 period and got the 64GB very pleased with it over the 32. It has very good quad speakers decent deep sound. This tablet plays games like COD without any issues. Great picture quality I’d recommend this tablet to anyone! And I’ve always had apple products. Samsung is the way for affordable tablets.

    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

  • Too many Ads
    Reviewed by Rckgril - April 29, 2022

    Galaxy Tab 8 is reliable and programs are fast. It is a bit slow at start up. The 10.5" screen size is pretty good and plays movies great. The speaker sound is not that great. When using headphones it's better. I do however find there is quite a few Ads that are annoying as you need to watch the majority of the Ad before closing it off. The battery is long lasting and charges quickly. All in all a good tablet. Would I buy it again? No, I would go for something that has more to offer and does not have an abundance of Ads.
