Samsung Galaxy Tab A (SM-T580) 10.1-Inch Android 6.0 Tablet

This tablet is a very good deal and works well. only thing I could say bad is it only has 16GB of storage but that's probably why such a good deal but u can always add a Mini SD in these to add more. I put a 32GB one in it.
I love the Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1. I put my other one in a safe place. So safe I can't find it. The new tab A has a more elongated screen. I think it's a good thing for watching videos
This tablet ended up being the perfect size, I can bring it to class easily, and the expansion capabilities on it are very impressive.
Always liked Samsung and this is no exception. Fast, reliable with a great display and memory options [up to 200gb micro sd card].
Great tablet with good performance and screen.

What customers say about "Features"

Samsung Galaxy Tab A (SM-T590) 10.5" Wi-Fi Tablet

Very good budget tablet. Easy to set up. Android 8.1 already updated.
Handles HD 1080p video nicely through Google Play, Flixster and Amazon Prime.
The screen resolution is very good and the battery life very long.
The touch screen is great and the size of the tablet screen is wonderful for me. It's light and easy to use.
It is large enough to display any web page, sound quality is fine.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A (SM-T580) 10.1-Inch Android 6.0 Tablet

One of the things the make me very happy is the long battery life.
My old tablet gave out completely so I purchased this tablet because it was similar. I am happy with it especially because the battery life is much longer and it is faster.
Two bottom firing speakers only (easily covered by hands when holding in landscape mode).
The charger gets dangerously hot. I only used twice and stopped using after I discovered there was an issue.
The Operating System should be upgradeable. You shouldn't have to purchase a new piece of hardware in order to take advantage of the Android operating systems available.
