(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } It's a nice tablet; the colours are crisp and vibrant; it's a high-quality product. It runs quickly. I really liked the tablet's colour options, I chose a darker shade of blue, I love it. The expandable memory feature is good. It's easy to use, and the settings aren't confusing. Being Android, I didn't have to pay extra for any apps.

What can i say a great tablet at a bargain price and does everything hubby needs it for. Charging takes no time at all and the set up was easy the pictures clear. Easier to hold than his 10" one that he kept dropping. Fast loading of items he needs too

5.0 out of 5 stars Galaxy Gem!

The Galaxy Tab A9 is the first tablet that I have purchased in just over a DECADE; and it's entirely worth the money!The performance is what you would expect for a lower end device, but that doesn't mean that the performance isn't good, quite the opposite actually. I use the tablet for note taking (Samsung Notes is the only app you need!), watching Netflix & Prime Video.I also play a variety of casual games (I've been a Gamer for over 30 years and I would never use a mobile device as my main console, so for more graphically intensive games I use my home console), and the A9 handles that beautifully! I play Stardew Valley, Cat Quest II, Skul: The Hero Slayer, Good Pizza, Great Pizza & the list goes on, lol! I've played these games using the on-screen controls, as well as connecting my Xbox Series X/S controller too, and both work very well. I also use the A9 for digital colouring and it is a joy to use for this purpose.The screen resolution is great for me, but it must be noted that I have terrible eyesight, so most things unless completely horrible will look good to me.The A9 is very easy to use and even though I hadn't had a tablet in such a long time, there was no learning curve for me. I also have an S21 FE 5G, so that could contribute to how easy I found it to use this device.The A9 isn't the fastest tablet, but I knew that going in, and because of how I use it, that doesn't bother me. If you're looking for a faster tablet then I'd recommend spending the extra money, and buying the Tab A9+.The speed is sufficient for what you'll use it for, so don't let that worry you.The touchscreen is responsive enough, with only the occasional lag and that usually comes with stylus use, as the styli are impacted by things that might be on the screen or stylus itself, so keeping both clean is essential.This is a fantastic little device and I'm even happier because I was able to get it on sale. I'll be buying the Tab A9+ as well, because I do want a larger display, but this is a wonderful reintroduction to the world of tablet's and I do not regret my purchase at all.

I bought this tablet because in my view the size and dimensions are perfect for use ‘on the go’. The aspect ratio is great for movies, books and magazines. The screen is also fine for emails. I tend to use other systems for documents but there is no reason why it would not work well with these also. Out of the few tablets available of this size I chose the Samsung A9 because I have other Samsung equipment and it fits in well with them for sharing calls and messages.I protect my tablet with a generic inexpensive glass screen protector and an even less expensive generic gel case; neither effect its usability. The tablet is faster than its predecessor, the A7 lite, and will do everything I ask it to but it does not seem as fast as my S21+ phone. The screen is high quality with perfect touch response and again is fine for my needs but the resolution is unchanged from the A7 lite. It is a shame that there is no fingerprint sensor, although in my experience Samsung’s efforts at fingerprint sensors is very poor. If Samsung’s engineers want to know how to do it properly they should look at the extremely fast and accurate Huawei sensors. The tablet comes with Samsung’s user interface which I cant comment on as I immediately replaced it with the Nova launcher. My A9 is 128/8G which is ample memory but I also use a microSD card for media, like movies and music. I routinely charge the tablet every day but the battery life seems fine.The tablet is very good, I use it every day and I would buy one again without question.ProsPerfect size for reading books and magazinesLinks with other Samsung devicesCheap microSD card memory expansionConsCould be fasterNo fingerprint recognitionCameras and screen resolution could be better

I am using this tablet to watch my nest doorbell 24/7 live . For my own purpose it has been solid purchase . Always stayed connected to wifi and its plugged into powe supply at all time . Performance has been good so far. With dome added screen guard protection it looks well protective.

I first bought one that was for Middle Eastern countries so sent it back. For a few £s more I bought a UK version.It's brilliant easy to set up and transfer all my data from my old galaxy. Great screen bigger than last one, my gripe is keyboard seems stretched. Camera is excellent quality. Bit of a downside it takes forever to charge 6 hours. It comes with a USB cable only, you need a plug or a lamp that has a USB connection which I had both.

I needed something not too expensive for streaming Netflix and Youtube so I could justify the cost for this use, but wanted better quality than Bolo tablet. This tablet ticks the boxes and find myself using more apps than just Netflix and Youtube. I love that it’s a lightweight device. The screensize is just right for me, not too big, not too small.
