Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2016) Review

Score: 70.2 / 100

Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2016) is a very complete tablet released in June 2016, having an extremely powerful 1.6 gigahertz Octa-Core processor, a huge 10.1 inches screen, and 2 cameras, an 8 MP back side camera and a 2 MP front camera.

This tablet is only available in color 16 777 216. This tablet doesn't feel very lightweight for a tablet of this size, weighting 18.52 ounces. This tablet just has 10.01 inches long, but it manages to hold a 10.1 inches display. The Tab A 10.1 (2016) is just 0.32 inches thick, making its way into the thinnest devices podium.

Samsung decided to equip this device using a Samsung Exynos 7 Octa 7870 chip, packing a very powerful Octa-Core CPU ticking at 1600 MHz and a large 2 GB of RAM. A good advantage of this tablet is its big 16 GB internal memory and an external memory card slot, allowing the user to install a couple hundred games and apps without running out of space.

Samsung equipped this tablet with a good level 10.1 inches screen, and a 1200 x 1920 resolution, which makes everything look very good.

The Tab A 10.1 (2016) features wi-fi connection (although it can't share it with other devices around, as a mobile hotspot), 4G LTE great performance connection and also HSPA+ connection type, that is a slower 4G type and fast 3G data connection, over HSDPA and HSUPA technologies. This tablet works with a Nano SIM card for GSM networks.

This tablet is equipped with two cameras, an 8 MP back camera and a 2 megapixels front camera. This tablet also captures videos up to 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 frames per second.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2016) has a 7300 mAh great non-replaceable battery, enough to provide the Tab A 10.1 (2016) with an impressive battery life. An issue to consider is that this tablet's battery is non-replaceable so you can't buy a new battery when it begins to live shorter, while with such a big battery you will probably replace this portable tablet before that becomes a real problem.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2016) also comes with a handful of cool features such as Bluetooth (4.2 ) and GPS, and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor and Accelerometer.

It doesn't matter whether you need it for work, want a gaming tablet, are a photography fan or want this tablet mainly for internet broswing and social networks, you will definitely be very happy with this tablet.
