Got this to replace old tablets that wouldn't update anymore because Android version was too old to support Google stuff. It's like a big phone and has basically all the features I want and even has a headphone jack and came with a fairly modern version of Android and I was able to quickly download...

Am loving the samsung galaxy tab a, i got it for my autistic son as a form of communication and learning with some awesome apps, he is thriving and this is certainly helping alot

This tablet is very good for reading enewspapers, news articles, etc. I would not recommend it for any type of gaming other than Solitaire-type games. The colors are very good & clear, and it both boots up and shuts down quickly. Battery life is EXTREMELY good on this.
