[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this because I wanted to start a podcast. I absolutely love it. I love Samsung. I'm able to connect my S21plus to get. I can text call ect. It also connects with the Bluetooth keyboard and now you have a laptop. All in all I'm very happy and will continue to purchase this brand

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This the 4th time I've ever purchased a Samsung tablet. The first time was yrs ago for myself. I used it for years throughout college and the beginning of parenthood. I've used the tablets for my kids and I think of all the other brands I've tried for them, the Samsung is the most kid friendly, kid focused and kid protected tablet. I love that I can use the Kids feature without having to pay extra fees. I love that I can customize it and password protect it so it's fitted to my kids' needs. And I love that you can create more than one profile. I will always be a Samsung product user. Our cell phones are also Samsung Galaxy phones.

there are really only a couple problems with this tablet (galaxy tab a8) the first and most frustrating is the wifi connection or lack there of. it frequently loses internet connection not necessarily connection to my router most times it will say "connected without internet" or it will connect and disconnect over and over until i restart the device. the other issue isn't as frustrating but is annoying is the fact that sometimes when rotating the tab to view full screen (landscape) or back to portrait the touchscreen doesn't work i'll have to turn the screen off and back on for it to work again. there are alot of good things about it though like the battery life is outstanding especially with the amazing screen quality very bright and vivid

Back in the day this may have been a good tablet. I purchased only a few months ago and it runs extremely choppy. New updates from Samsung have made this a really bad tablet. The operation functions extremely slow after the new updates kick in almost as if Samsung is trying to phase this model out.

this tab a8 is a nice upgrade from the tab s2. after getting used to the different screen (tab s2 was amoled) i am beginning to really like the new tft screen. there are plenty of adjustments to make it customized to your preference. the switch was very easy using the included software. battery life is very good and it appears to be pretty fast. my only issue is i cannot seem to get my sd card to snap into the sd holder so i can insert it. overall this is a very nice tablet for the moderate user for a moderate price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tablet is great for the average user in every way. The A8 has many things that it gets absolutely right. Then it struggles to do a few things that it trys to do but ends up just not giving the consumer the experience I think they would want. The A8 absolutely hits it out of the park for design, display, sound and quality all for the lower price point. The display is amazing for streaming and scrolling through social media. It's vibrant and very punchy. The sound is great for media of all kinds and it has the benefit of having audio being produced out of multiple speakers. The tablet in the hand just feels like quality and durable compared to previous versions. Hands down this tablet is the best quality out of the A series in a while. Where this tablet starts to show its struggles is when you use it for any productivity. Multiple apps open task this tablet regardless of their use of the tablet CPU/Memory. Things like office apps and multiple tabs is where this tablet shows it's desire to be more of a streaming and social media usage device. The cameras are good enough for most tablet uses and dona good job at video calls. The biggest downfall of this table is the lack of Spen support. If this tablet had included this simple feature I would have given this 5 stars and had near no complaints. Don't get me wrong this device is great for what it's meant to do and does those things great at this price point.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this Tablet for our daughter. We got it when she was 2 yrs old. Yes I know, young! BUT.... we bought this for the long trips we were frequently making, and occasional family outings (because she is the only kid in a family of both sides full with adults & adult children. She gets bored... cries, & I don't blame her, she wants someone to play with her, but the grown-ups sure don't want to. What I LOVE about this, is the Samsung Kids! I can put a time limit on it, I lock it so she can't get out of it, & I have some learning apps. She absolutely loves it. We haven't had any issues with it. We've had it for a year now, (she's now 3) & it's a great product. She uses it once in a while only when these outings happen, & recently on a timed limit during the mornings using a learning app. It just comes so handy, that I know she's not doing stuff or watching things she's not supposed to, & she's not using it all day because of that lovely parental control time limit! If you're thinking about getting one for your child, this is the one!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned a couple of Samsung tablets and this one has performed almost flawlessly over the last year picture quality is Great Sound is good battery life seems like it has not diminished at all over the last year all in all I have to say a very positive experience with the A8 One of the things I have enjoyed is all the updates Samsung has been putting out in fact one of the last updates I noticed the Wi-Fi signal has increased massively So far with the great experience that I've had with the A8 has me looking into upgrading into one of the flagship tablets

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 is a decent choice for someone on a budget who wants a tablet to do some basic stuff like shopping, stream video, browse social media, or play some basic games. It has a nice and large HD screen and it's battery will last all day long which is hard to find in this price range. I got the lower model with 32GB of internal memory thinking I'd just install an SD card which it has a slot for unlike a lot of new devices nowadays, but I wish I would have got the one with more memory because i can't really fit a lot of apps on the device, even when moving some apps to the SD card there really isn't a lot of space after the operating system and a few pictures. This isn't a flagship tablet so you won't get a 120hz display, great multitasking, snappy and responsive app switching or be able to play a graphic demanding game but you can do other things very well.

this tablet is so slow at loading & many times gives me a message that i'm not connected to the internet, when i absolutely am! i was unable to transfer my information from my previous samsung tablet after working at it for hours. i finally did it manually. i'm wondering if i got a factory refurbished tablet instead of a new one. i do not recommend this model. i wish i would have spent more money & purchased something else of higher quality. i hardly use this tablet because of these problems.
