racecar, 30 Oct 2016Which is better?_ ipad air 2 or samsung tab a 9.7?You're referring to iPad air second gen? If yes then yes ipad is much better , just keep in mind that they run on different operating systems, you can play games on iPad and you can watch videos same for the tab A but you can't plug a USB pendrive on the iPad, you can do that on tab A, you can't change anything on the home screen except rearranging your apps , you can install a different launcher on tab A ... Anyways the iPad is a better performer with a better screen and a better construction and better updates support ....

        Anonymous, 24 Oct 2016Hi there, can i connect my samsung Galaxy tab A 9.7 to my T... moreThe Tab A doesn't have MHL output, so you won't be able to connect it to your TV with an HDMI cable.

        There are a couple of wireless options, however:
        If you just want to send videos/pictures/Netflix/etc., you could use a Chromecast - there's a list of apps that support it here: https://www.google.com/chromecast/apps/
        If you need to do full screen mirroring, Samsung used to sell a thing called an "AllShare Cast Dongle" which supported that, however it has been discontinued. It *seems* to just be a standard MiraCast dongle, however, so it's possible that you could use any MiraCast receiver.

                I have the Tab A 9.7 version I can report the following :

                Screen : is the most important thing on a mobile device, the resolution is extremely low with a weak 768 x 1024 pixels (~132 ppi pixel density), text will look ok when viewing a zoomed web page, at normal zoom, text will look grainy, picture quality is great and brightness is more than enough for any situation, if you watch videos or view pictures it's a fairly good screen, except for small text, there is no light bleeding on this panel (nexus 9 has a catastrophic light bleeding screen). Let's talk a bit about its resolution and pixel density, it is bothering me, really! Specially on web pages and small pieces of text, what's the point of having a large tablet if we keep zoming to read a column of text on a web page? None! I can do that on my 4 years old Note 2, but it's not convenient, I can not see small letters well on my Tab A 9.7, it looks grainy and sometimes I have to look really close to be able to read

                Performance : is fairly good, everything works well and the UI is snappy, high quality videos (1080p mkv) works great, large pdf files are handled with ease, webpages are displayed instantly, there is no problem with performance on this tablet, light gaming is possible

                Battery life : with airplane mode on about 13:00 hours screen on time of mixed continus use (youtube, light gaming, reading...) or about 10:00 hours SOT with 3g enabled

                Build quality : is very good

                Phone calls : works great over H+ or gsm (available in my country) signal strength is better than my note2

                Wifi : much much better and more stable than my note2 (which is/or was a great phone)

                Hope this helps deciding what to get, A 10.1 or 9.7
                I am planning to get the A 10.1 and my 9.7 will go to my wife, if anyone want to know more about the 9.7 I will try to help
