This is my first Samsung Galaxy tablet and its performance is smooth, polished and reliable. But I'd give it 4 and 1/2 stars if I could. I hate the keyboard. When you want to use emojis, hand gestures, animals and all that -- it's divided up into separate sections instead of one page. So when you want to access say a hand gesture instead of a face, you have to press a button at the top of the keyboard to get to it. And if there isn't a symbol for what you want at top of the keyboard, you have to hit the search to find it. I find this very inconvenient. After all the fuss I've heard about Samsung Galaxy, I can't believe how small and clumsy this keyboard is. Charging takes awhile, so I'm using a block -- plugging it into the wall seems to improve the speed of the recharge. The charger cable that comes with it is very short and flimsy -- so I'm using a sturdier cable I bought for it. Setup for this tab was the worst I've ever experienced. I was ordered to get an app in my Playstore called SmartSwitch in order to set it up. Google Setup has always worked fine for me with every other tab I've purchased, but I wasn't allowed to use it with this one. It had to be SMART SWITCH or not at all, which required me to plunk out $7.50 with my credit card! And the setup was no better than Google and took a few hours besides. I paid extra and bought the 8gb version of this tablet because I'm a serious gamer and I must have speed. I used it constantly this past weekend during my online team tournament and it worked very smoothly with long lasting battery life. It's been interesting to check out a Samsung Galaxy at last and it is a beautiful tablet well worth having.
I accidentally put the Tablet review on the protective case review. The Midrange 2024 Samsung A9+ is Awesome for the price you can't beat it. $219.99 before tax. Works great if you can follow directions to set it up properly through the Samsung website.The first 10.9 in. Tablet I bought was garbage unless you have unlimited hotspot data, not this one though it works with all Wi/Fi,connects to everything effortlessly.
Movies on this device are better to watch than on a cell phone.The setup is quick. Easy pairing with an existing Andriod device.The tablet was up and running within minutes.The screen is a quality piece. Touch input is irregularly laggy. But, that may be my internet connection.Keep in mind - Wall adapter and Micro SD are card not included.
This thing is great! Large screen and long battery life. Using it for work so not really stressing it out at all but it runs smoothly. The camera sticks out a good amount so if you plan to not use a case be aware of that. And it takes a long time to charge up even on a super fast charger (no super charge option only fast and normal) but still over night its good to go. Expandable storage is really nice and it seamlessly captured the data from my current samsung device.
The Samsung Tablets is one of the Greatest pieces of technology there is I gifted it to my husband and I will be gifting them to family and friends...
