Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 10.4 Wi-Fi 32GB Gold (SM-T500NZDAXAR)

The tablet I'm using now is an improvement over last year's Galaxy Tab A 10. I've only been using it for a few days so far, but there are a few key features. There are a few reasons I would consider upgrading to version 1" (2019). Details can be found below, as a summary here A 1GB increase in RAM compared to the 32GB version is an essential upgrade
+ added power and access to 4 speakers (instead of just one at the bottom) really improves movie watching
+ the location of the front-facing speaker is way better too With a facing video camera, video conferences become so much easier and easier! Plus, face authentication is a cinch! The round screen is actually an interesting design touch of the handset. In my opinion, it's not the same thing as biometric authentication. I will - The ambient light sensor will be frequently covered when used on a portrait tablet (and could darken the screen if it were to be used as ambient light sensor)*- There is a lot of "cold" white and light from the edges of the The Galaxy Tab A suffers some lag when multiple apps are opened, but compared to the Galaxy Tab A last year, it's much better. I used the Galaxy Tab A 10 because of the sensitive portrait/landscape rotation sensor and I was pleased with the performance. Since it was released, more than a year has passed since the release of "1. ". As a new user, I was impressed by the 2019 Tab A when I got it but after using it for a year, I would only rate it Unless you're browsing the web, watching movies or other media, or playing a few basic games, these tablets are not powerful enough. Having chosen the 32GB Galaxy Tab A last year, which had only 2GB of RAM, I found that it was more troublesome than anticipated. Therefore, I chose a more powerful device this year. As a result, I had to close all apps frequently or endure very noticeable lags or apps that wouldn't even open (apps that contained links to Amazon's Shopping for Tablet app, for Although I still close all apps about once a day, this has definitely improved with the 3GB RAM this tablet has. Despite all of its features, the 6th-generation 9 has one flaw that frustrated me. The iPad 7 (2018) and the Galaxy Tab A 10 are both 7-inch devices. It is one of the things I don't like about the Next generation (2019) is the place of only one set of stereo speakers on the bottom of the device. This always bothered me and I appreciated it with Amazon's recent It seems like just the speakers on the top of the tablet were nearly enough to convince me to buy it. If you value these factors, it certainly makes a Given the fact that this is a tablet and Zoom meetings have become more prevalent in recent years, I actually care about the front of the tablet. There was a problem with the front cameras last year when they were positioned on top of the tablet in portrait In the center. It has not been moved (but if you're using landscape, it's at the top), so this makes much better use of the screen for Zoom. There is also face authentication on this tablet, which is very handy.

I like that the bezels are symmetrical. The addition of this is terrific! I know it's not nearly as durable as my iPhones (And doesn't work well in low light), but I appreciate the addition! In the past, I had used Trusted Lock to lock my doors based on GPS location at my house and a PIN number, which did not create a huge problem but I do I also like the way the corners of the screen are rounded, since it adds a nice touch to the device. I can't say I am very disappointed with the screen since it isn't OLED, but for this price I can't complain. This year's numbers are about the same as last year's. There are two cons to the tablet The ambient light sensor is next to the camera on the side, which is a poor place for it since most people use their tablets in portrait orientation. Due to this, the screen becomes very dark and I have to turn it off since I used this in portrait position almost exclusively unless I was watching a video. As a result of the default white balance being too cold, I use the blue light filter on my camera quite a bit. A few pixels on the edges of the screen are distorted due to light bleed. I have no problem with this at this price point, but these are the main reasons why I would give this a 4 instead of a 5. In comparison to last year's version, this one is a little wider by a few millimeters. To me, it's not a big deal. However, it's not very powerful, so that may be the only real complaint. The performance of this tablet has improved from last year, but there are still some lags. Generally speaking, I think the price point is reasonable, but this is not an ultra-performance In comparison with the Fire HD10 and the Basic IPAD, this is more convenient. It has the Google Play Store on its own, which makes it more appealing. It's true that I really like stock Android (and held onto the Nexus 7 2013 way too long because of that), but I could go without Samsung's One UI since it's decent and not overly obtrusive like stock Android is. It is my only customization of the phone I replaced Samsung's keyboard with Google's and removed several default Samsung apps. Neither Google Launcher nor Nova were installed on my computer. Initially, I also had trouble getting Google's basic apps to work on my Fire HD10, meaning it was not the most recent version of the device. This isn't an issue anymore, but I am not too sure. Overall, I prefer the UI on these to that of Amazon Fire, and the $50-$60 difference is well worth it Compared with the Fire HD10, I find the Fire HD10 to be an excellent purchase at $80. The narrower form factor of the iPad I use most often makes me like it more compared to our iPad. You can just hold it more comfortably. year, I almost bought the 7th generation iPad, but since the processor was the same as our 6th generation, I chose to go with this one instead, thinking that I may upgrade this year. Despite the new processor in the iPad, which is why I was going to get that, I feel that for the price (between the 8th generation iPad and Fire HD10), 4 speaker array, and biometric authentication, this tablet meets my needs and offers features I missed out on in the iPad- Therefore, Samsung, thank you very much! Edited to add I followed up with you 4 months later
The star has been docked from 4 stars to 3 stars because there is some performance lag when many apps are On my tablet, I "close all apps" about once a day (compared to last year's tablet, I closed them every 15 minutes
- There are times when the landscape/portrait sensing can be irritating, and it can be a challenge to manipulate.

According to the advertisement, the product has a Samsung Exynos 9611 chipset, however, the actual chipset is a Qualcomm one. Amazon told me over the phone that it had a Samsung chipset before I made my purchase. The product information on Amazon's page is incorrect, so be wary, and I have contacted the company to correct it. Of course, many won't give a damn about the chipset that runs the device. I'm currently testing the tablet to determine how well it meets my needs. Samsung's S5e is better and has more features than it, but we don't recommend it A pen-like pen is present in the Samsung S6 Lite, and the screen is sharp, so it seems like a great tablet for consumption of content. Nonetheless, I am returning it because the chipset is important to me.

An additional 1 star will be assigned when the update is ready. This is a review of Tab A7 The main purpose of this tablet for me is reading and media consumption, so my experience will be based on that. In terms of its performance for reading and watching YouTube videos and movies, this is a great tablet. There is nothing fancy about it, but it gets the job done when you watch videos. It has a good screen size and display, it's not the latest Tab S series tablet, but it works nicely. When it comes to reading, the 1080p display and size of the screen are a delight. I come from a 720p fire tablet 8, and I'm impressed by the sharpness of the letters and the vividness of the display It is a major upgrade to own real estate. The tablet is relatively lightweight, but due to its size it might be difficult to hold with one hand. The quad speakers on this tablet are very loud and crisp so that's something I like since I feel more immersed in whatever I watch. The 3GB of ram will do the job if you don't have too many open apps (8 or more in my experience). Even if you have a lot of apps running in the background, the only noticeable difference is a slight lag when changing apps or opening new ones. There is only one con which isn't a major issue with this tablet, and that is its storage For those of you like me who download tons of audio books, epubs, and pdfs, I highly recommend spending a bit extra on a micro SD card with a large storage capacity. If you only stream videos, you should be fine regarding the amount of available In general, I have a great deal of respect for this tablet, especially since it's priced at what you want to do is watch YouTube or Netflix and maybe play some Candy Crush, then this tablet will work The tablet is faster and silkier than the fire 8 and fire tablet 7, I highly recommend it if you are upgrading from a fire 7 or 8. As a student, if you need something more productive (note taking, excel, PowerPoint, writing on pdf's), I would not recommend this device as its lack of RAM and stylus support make it inferior to the tab s6 lite/tab 4/tab 5.

A comparative analysis My Samsung Tab A 10 went on sale recently, so I recently bought one. The device I have is the 1 3 GB variant (2019) that I've had for just over As a recent discovery, this tablet caught my attention. I was curious to see the different features, so I went ahead and bought it since it was a good deal less expensive ($180) than the $200 I paid for Tab It was the speakers that I noticed right away as being the biggest difference. The sound is SO much clearer and louder, thanks to the quad speaker setup. A7's dual speakers left the tab A's muffled dual speakers in the dust, so I'd say they sound great for the price. In comparison to the Tab A, the A7 has a similar-sized screen and a bit higher resolution, but the difference isn't as great as you might think. As I mentioned above, I noticed that the look of the A7 had a red tint compared to the A7, I couldn't really tell the difference until I had the screens side by side. There is also a noticeable difference in battery capacity between the A7 and tab A, which is right in line with the larger screen size.

Video and movie viewing are both easy on this tablet. I wouldn't recommend it for those planning on reading lots of books and documents, unless you can handle the extended height and narrower screen that this tablet has when you hold it in portrait mode. The pros include I will - In landscape mode, it is extremely comfortable to hold - Batteries with great life span - Speakers who are very good-- The quality of the build is good - Despite the headphone jack, its cons are as follows I will - We don't have a fingerprint reader - There is some reflection from the screen, but this is common with cheaper tablets - There is a lackluster rear camera on this device. In the settings, it would have been nice if there was a way to calibrate the display.
