Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This Samsung Tablet just what I was looking for and I have owned this for one and a half months now. I usually purchase my Tablets and Smartphones from Amazon, however, it was not yet on Amazon's website at that time. Since I am a techie type, I throughly tested this tablet before I wrote this review. Below, I list the Pros and Cons that I personally discovered: + Screen Resolution/Form Factor: The screen resolution is excellent at 189ppi. I find that the screen is clearer than my old Tab A 8.0 was. Also, colors are vivid. + OS and Preinstalled Apps...The OS is Nougat 7.1.1 + Regarding Form Factor...I prefer the 16:10 form factor in this Samsung Tab A 2017 over my older Samsung Tab A 2015 with the 4:3 form factor. This Tablet is easier for me to hold and the videos fill the screen better. + Internal Memory/ External Memory Card info--this tablet is advertised at 32GB Internal Memory. However, after the OS and Factory Apps were installed, it began with about 25GB of available internal memory. So when I added my many apps, updates, etc, I now have 19.25GB left. This is enough space to future apps, updates etc. +Memory Card storage...I discovered that I can install an SD Card up to 256GB. However, I installed (for now) a 64GB and still have 20gb left on it. + Speed/Responsiveness/Battery Temp/Battery Life...This tablet is very peppy, does not lag or freeze. Battery is non removable and it has a good amount of power at 5,000 mAh. The battery does not overheat even with downloading apps, watching videos etc. Under normal use it is 80 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit and after downloading apps, watching videos etc, it goes up to 90 to 95 degrees, which is normal, and it quickly goes back down to 80 to 85. I use the free widget called Battery Solo from the Playstore. It shows my battery amount left on my screen and when I tap it, it gives a report of how long the battery has been used and the time left on the battery. Battery Life: The battery has lasted easily from 8am to about 730pm if I use it moderately to heavy as I am on weather apps, Facebook, email, Internet, YouTube on and off most of the day. *I get about 2 hours longer on this 2017 Tab A than I did on my old Tab A 2015. + WiFi...802.11 a/b/g/n, dual-band. I use ATT UVERSE and this tablet has superb and fast WiFi. Even outside in my backyard, it still gets 3 bars. I am very pleased with this tablet's WiFi. Also, on the road, it picks up local WiFi wonderfully. + Camera...This camera has a flash, I am happy to report. And it has 8MP, not the best, however, the pictures and videos I took with it are quite clear...I was happily suprized about that! Sound Quality...It is SO SO as there is just one speaker. I tested this watching videos on YouTube, Facebook and music on my SD Card. It was doable in a pinch, however, I use a set of high quality Bluetooth headset and a high quality Bluetooth speaker. With a Bluetooth speaker or headset, the sound is wonderful. + Overall Reasons why I love this tablet: Personally, I found this to be a very impressive and love the screen to body ratio which is 70.5, excellent. It is slim and trim, and easily fits into my purse. My favorite features are the 32GB Internal Memory, my old Tab A 8.0 had just 16GB, too small for today's apps etc and the lo get battery life. Cons: Just one that I discovered: - Sound...just one tiny speaker. I use Bluetooth Headset and a Bluetooth speaker so I did not deduct stars. Would I purchase this tablet again? Yes, because it has many advantages over my older Tab A 2015 Model. Well, I hope that this review has helped with your decision regarding this tablet. Thank you for reading my review.
