        Hi, can anyone confirm if the buttons below the screen are backlit? There's is no backlight in my unit but I bought it as refurbished so I am not 100% sure wheter it is fully operational.

            Looks like the successor will be coming out any day now? Considering...

            Tab Active: September 2014
            Tab Active 2: October 2017 (3 years later)
            Tab Active 3: September 2020 (3 years later)
            ... 3 years again ...
            Tab Active 4: September 2023?

            It looks like an interesting tablet but I'm not buying one with the S9's processor in 2023 :P

            Of course the 4 Pro came out last year but I would consider that a different range. For example the local police here in Spain seem to use the 8" model heavily in their cars (with a car mount) and I expect they wouldn't be happy to upgrade to a larger model.

                Samsung products are "Expensive" without reason..!
                Even when not using Snapdragon chipset.
                So why?

                    Samsung should make a new Tab Active4 with Snapdragon 778G chipset. I'm not a fan of the Tab Active4 Pro's 10.1" display. 8" is perfect for me.

I bought the 577 with android 13 and could not get the unit to make or receive calls. The primary reason for this is that the 577 model does not have a slit opening for earphone speaker. I think they did this to improve the water seal rating. Even using headset didn't seem to bypass this limitation. Such a shame because the 577 can hold 2 sim cards and has the 128GB version. It's essentially like a data only tablet like Apple's mini w/ data cellular. I had to return the 577 and get the 575 model to make and receive phone calls. However, it holds only 1 sim card and is limited to the 4/64GByte version.

I believe this must be the last tablet designed by Samsung themselves

Because sometimes the update can slow down the performance, because it is just an update on top of the old. It's the same thing with windows.

                                      My Tab3 Active was updated to UI4.1.1 last night with more than 1GB of data. Lots of features added specially for quick access to split screens. The battery drain seems to have slowed down even prior to update... maybe the battery memory has 'stabilised' after I used it regularly.

                                        tr00don, 02 Aug 2022My major annoyance with this device, like with any other An... moreYes, battery drain is the biggest issue on this Tablet. I have a Tab S6 Lite 2020 and there is no battery drain issue. This Tab Active3 definitely has a battery drain issue even if the battery saver is active.

                                        Ever since I discovered SwiftKey keyboard by Microsoft 4 years ago, I never used the Samsung Keyboard in any of my Samsung smartphone or tablet anymore.
