I’m so glad they got rid of the buttons I always kept pressing them accidentally then I would loose a web page etc. This Samsung tablet is so much better and with the 4 speakers sounds a lot better than my old tab A from 2016
Update post: recently bought the tab and gotta say if you want this for multi media, it’s got a gorgeous bright screen with great colours, loud four stereo speakers and a battery that last and last and last, I would definitely recommend. Gaming wise, if you’re playing AAA then it’s not the way to go, but games like MC, clash of clans and all those small mobile games are fantastic. Other then that this tablet is sufficent, tested out opening 6 tabs onto my screen at once and to my suprise it handles it
I have the older version of the Tab A. It's been an Energizer Bunny for me, lasting quite some time before slowing down some and losing some battery life. I bought my tablet after it had been out a little over a year so I was able to take advantage of a great pre Christmas sale! Won't be buying this while new, but when it goes on sale. For now I'm still happy with it's predecessor!
@@OnyeStephen :. My personal experience is heavy on media and email. I haven't tried to use the TabA as a workhorse intended to replace my Chromebook. That's why I waited as long as I did to buy mine. I can't honestly answer your question if you are wanting to use this tablet as a somewhat replacement for a laptop. I know this probably didn't help much, but I wanted to let you know that I am likely not qualified enough to give you the answer you need.
Just bought this tablet at Target on sale for $179 dollars on 3-2020. Way better than my old Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8 inch! Love Samsung with the micro SD card addition for added memory. Have a Samsung Galaxy phone with SD card memory also.
what's a nice tablet purely for movie watching/ tv serial binging? it has to at least have full hd and 10" screen. specs wise like processor/gpu/etc doesn't have to be flagship level.
I know this is a late comment but my mom is going to get me this for Christmas with out my brother and dad knowing but i know because she told me but it will arive in the mail in 5 days after Christmas
REALLY A BEST PRODUCT FROM SAMSUNG CO..I AM USING IT FOR PAST 3 YEARS.I DINT FACE ANY PROBLEM SO FAR.....FOR BEST PRODUCTS SATISFIED CUSTOMERS ARE REAL ADVERTISERS..NO NEED TO CONVASS SAMSUNG PRODUCTS..THE ONLY DRAWBACK IS THE HIGH PRICES....IF PRICES ARE WITHIN REACH OF COMMON PEOPLE IT WILL BE NO 1 IN THE MARKETS....
In your review can u emphasis the quality of the speakers cuz they're the main factor for picking up the a 10.5 for some ppl. ty for ur videos keep them coming .
I have the tab s4 and tab a in front of me right now on trial.....both sound the same. I dont notice a difference with the akg tuning on the s4. The sound is great.....loud and immersive....im impressed.
I'm having a tab a 2018 10.5 lte. Awesome for media consumption thanks to its quad speakers of Dolby atmos which produces great stereo and surround effect its also loud. I play pubg on it and I mind it that it has 450 chipset of snapdragon. Its screen is awesome
I'm sure you meant 10GB used with 20 GB free rightout of the box. It would be messed up if the OS & pre-installed apps took over 20 GB of 32 HB internal memory. It alsawys makes me laugh when people talk plastic bodies vs "quality" metal bodies. (Like you're not going to put it in a protective case first thing.)
I was and still am an Android person, but when it came to buying a new tablet I had this as an option or the new iPad Air. Went with the iPad as android tablets seem to be at the end of their life cycle. Would love to get some hands on time with this one though to at least see what I passed on
Ipad air 2 software too old lack of features t510 lacks features of tab a 10.5 2018 such as Flash accessory pins on side fast charging sleep wake case etc. Definitely go with tab a 10.5 2018 I got mine and its really good
2018 10.5 is better. Because the 2019 do not have 4 speakers, only 2. This is the only major reason why I would prefer the 2018 version for watch videos intead of the 2019. For some reason a this moment the 2019 is cheaper than the 2018 model if you want to buy it right now
@@tasneem2397 Not really. Both of them are no mean for Gaming and have even similar result on Benchmarks. Even the S5e have huge problems performing demading games. If gaming is what you try to accomplish then look for the S4 or S6.
@@FudoCesar Nope. Gaming is not my purpose. Daily task without any lag, decent screen along with a great battery backup is all I want. And if the tab supports type C to HDMI that would be a plus. That way I can connect it to my monitor.
@@tasneem2397 Hey so base in what you need. The Tab S5e or S4 are great options. You are not going to have any lag in any of these device. But if money is still an issue because there are between $300 and $450. The Tab A 2018 is the only option that you have. But I bet that you are going to lag problems because is not mean for multi-taking and do not have Samsung Dex as the other two
Yes you can you go into settings apps click the app click storage you will see on the bottom it says storage internal click change click sd card then click move wait for it to load don't cancel and that's it note: some apps don't support this but most do
I recently got the 10.5 because it was at promotional price. I think it depends on what you're looking for to decide between the too. The plus of this one is great audio, HD definition, one more gb of ram. I would choose this one for media consumption in good quality, but if my greater interest was simple web browsing I think I would go for the lighter tablet. The os was older but it got an update, so I don't know if the extra ram is a big plus as updates often slow down devices a bit but over all, as a casual user this tablet fits my needs.
Im prefer samsung but when it comes to tablets i have ipad just because it doesnt have button and my baby niece was pressing them by accident, but this is great i love it, im getting one!
Tab 10.1 can be had for 188 € after rebate. That's a lot cheaper! How do the screens compare under bright light, where the tab 10.1 is quite reflective?
Tab S2 it's decent i think and have a 2k SAmoled display but 4:3 and TabA has a 16:10 Pls display, if i'm not wrong. i think both are almost same and good enough for media/browsing and similar stuff.(sorry for my english) 🤗👌
@@itsmar9288 yes that's exactly why I went with the Samsung over the huawei because I was about to get the Huawei because it has slightly better gpu and cpu
You could show us how TH-cam runs on this tablet in full HD 60frames and maybe how the 4 speakers sounds in this mid.........also you could measure the brightness possibilities of this screen and outdoor visibilty......thanks
how are the batteries expensive? do you get 10 hours like on an ipad? I thought I would buy a galaxy tab s4 but because I only get 6 hours on my s2 I tweet between the s4 and the ipad pro 10.5? which ones, ipads get longer updates?
What about multitasking? how's the ease of use on opening multiple windows at the same time next to eachother. Lets say word/google docs + chrome browser.
I pretty sure it does support the S pen. I'm considering the purchase of either the A 2016 or this one and when I tried it in store, they had an S pen connected to it, running perfectly (which made me considered the tablet even though it's more than I planned to spend)
@@Cowoman thanks for your information , this is make me pretty sure to buy this tab . Because i love drawing with galaxy tab , n i already sold my tab A6 to buy this tab. And spen for this tab look like a tab s4 or note series ??
@@Cowoman did you try the pen from the S3 or S4 or Tab A 2016 on the tab A 2018 version? I'm thinking on getting 2016 as you pointed out, but if 2018 is supporting SPEN out of the box I might spend a bit more.
Hard to find cases for the 2018 A 8 sm-t357 10.5 inch. Usually its just the 8" sm-t357 or the 10.5 inch sm-t590 series. Not the 10.5 sm-t357. Any help would be great.
I bought this tablet but when I charge the tablet I don't get any light that can show if the device is charging. Tablet is charging fine but no red light indicator. Please let me know if its only me or if there is no light indicator in this tablet?
Pro Samsung: Possibly longer updates. I like the software a bit more. Pro Huawei: Bit better performance, metal body, fingerprint reader, but probably no updates ever.
Hello. Thank you for this video. Looking forward to the full review. I am typing this on the galaxy tab a 10.1 that has been my main tablet for the past 2 years. (Very happy customer) . About the main review: I'd like to know if it is possible to open the tablet to change the battery (like it is on the 10.1 ... I have gotten a replacement battery) and I am concerned that this new one may be glued instead. Is it so? And also, what about those mysterious connectors on the side? Is this tablet compatible with the keyboard cover from the tab S4?? And if so, does this support Dex desktop in any way? I've been using Sentio Desktop in the Tab A 10.1 but having dex would be nice. I guess that is all LOL thanks again for your reviews. I am planning on getting this 10.5 tab to replace my 10.1.. not because this one is lacking, but I like to refresh every 2 years so I am not left behind with the OS updates and performance.
