Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016) Review

Score: 60.4 / 100

Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016) is a good quality portable tablet launched back in 2016, counting with an exceptional Quad-Core processor clocking at 1.3 gigahertz, a pretty big 7 inches display, and 2 cameras, a 5 MP back side camera and a 2 megapixels front camera.

Though the Tab A (2016) is just 7.36 inches long, it is still able to fit a a 7 inches display. The Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016) has a beautiful design, with a thickness of just 0.34". This tablet is a bit heavy for a tablet this size, weighting 9.98 oz. Samsung is offering this device in color 16 777 216.

Samsung decided to build this tablet with a Samsung Exynos 3 Quad 3475 chip, which holds an extremely powerful Quad-Core CPU clocking at 1300 MHz and a great 1,5 GB of RAM. A nice point of the Tab A (2016) is its 8 GB quite big internal memory and an SD card slot, allowing you to install hundreds of games and applications without any problem.

This tablet is equipped with a good looking 7 inches display with a 800 x 1280 resolution, which makes it hard to distinguish the pixels in the display.

This tablet has two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 2 megapixels front-facing camera. It is capable of filming 1280x720 HD videos at 30 frames per second.

This tablet counts with wi-fi connection (although it can't provide it to other devices around, as a mobile hotspot). The Tab A (2016) doesn't have a sim card, because it's not a GSM tablet device.

This tablet uses a huge 4000 mAh Li - Ion non-removable battery that provides this tablet a marvelous battery life. An issue to consider is that the Tab A (2016)'s battery is not replaceable so you can't change it when it begins to lose capacity, although with so much capacity you will probably replace this portable tablet before it happens.

The Tab A (2016) also includes a handful of useful characteristics as Bluetooth (4.0 ) and GPS Localization, and some sensors likeLight Sensor and Accelerometer.

This tablet is priced $ 150, a very high price for this kind of tablet. This tablet is definitely a great option it doesn't matter whether you want a social device, are looking for a gamer tablet, are a photography fan or are looking for a device for work.
