      Today get a small update, security patch still same december 2020, not sure what update

        this tablet just stopped working all of a sudden, i tried hard resetting it and downloaded Custom OS, it said it could cause critical problems but i was willing to take the risk, so i did and now it just does not want to turn on. so moral of the story, dont download a Custom OS if you are hard resetting this

          Had this tablet for 1 year. It was incredibly slow and completely died a year later. I've had iPads since then.

                      No hate but Samsung's cheaper tablet s and phones are really horrible

                        This tablet is honestly a disappointing device, and this is coming from a hardcore Samsung fan. The performance is very laggy and there's a lot of stuttering with having as little as 2 or 3 apps open. Storage is also underwhelming, with the Android 9 upgrade filling up the disk. Battery life also is not really how Samsung claimed it to be, with my tablet at least lasting around 6 hours on a single charge, in spite of me tending to leave the brightness below 50%. I don't recommend this tablet unless you're only going to watch occasional media, for which it isn't even that good.

                          After upgrading to pie, the remaining storage available is 9.1gb ,I installed important applications such as microsoft office and onedrive,facebook lite,twitter,snapseed and application provider provider,after I checked the remaining available only 6.4 gb. If samsung plans to give an update on this tablet, I want to use android go,because it saves storage and cellular data.

                            Very annoying, I have 16gb of storage. When I update to pie, the update takes up a lot of storage with a note that I did a factory reset and the remaining storage is 9gb, after updating the google and samsung apps, the storage becomes 5.6gb, with that much internal storage. Can't save anything, only for app data. Hopefully in the next update Samsung will get rid of bloatware and duplicate apps.

                                    Just bought this tablet second hand in good condition in 2020, and it does all I want it to. It has Android 9 on it, and it's working well, performance OK.
                                    I'm not a fan of the hardware nav buttons, and I like to have them in the position that every other manufacturer does, but that's solved with a software nav button solution.
                                    I have the LTE version and phone calls are very clear at both ends.
                                    On the wish list side of things:
                                    1) Notification light. It doesn't have one
                                    2) More RAM. 3GB would have been nice, but in looking for a tablet, I notice most tabs at this price point were 1.5 to 2gb anyway.
                                    3) More storage. 16gb is a bit on the small side. 32GB would have been nice. Although it does have microSDXC storage capability.
                                    All in all though, very good tablet for the money I paid, which at the time of this writing was US $100 (AU$160). This tab will serve me a few more years yet.

                                      Can i comnect to a TV using Type C to HDMI cable
