Quality

Samsung Tablets pretty much speak for themselves as We Know Samsung to make fantastic products. This product will not disappoint and is as good today as it was two years ago when first purchased. The build quality is superb as always and the screen also gives clean and crisp viewing. Buttons and screen sensitivity is also a one build quality is superb.

Longevity

As you can tell by the title I have had this tablet for over two years and during this time it has never disappointed. All buttons and touch-sensitive apparatus is as good as it was when first purchased. The headphone socket has also been used in the two-year test period still feels as good as new. The only thing that would show the difference between this particular tablet and a brand new same item is probably the battery life. See below for details

Usage

Usage is simple it pretty much does what it says on tin. It has a stunning AMOLED Display that produces fantastic real to life colors and is great for games and watching videos. It does also contain Samsung's multitask beaches which give you shortcuts on your desktop or main screen, this can feature can be turned on or off. It is also great to see dual cameras on our tablets and with a 8 megapixel rear facing you can capture good quality photos. Usability is superb even after two years daily use

Battery times

Battery times vary dramatically as the make and age will determine there longevity. You should expect at least 5 hours from a good battery.

As I said earlier the only thing you can tell the difference between this and a brand new item is possibly the battery life. As this item is now over two years old the battery life is not as good as it was when first purchased but it still can hold a respectable 5 hours from a full charge with constant use.

Ease of use

Ease of use is simple it uses standard Android operating system and is touchscreen. But you may wish to use voice activation which is also available.

Connectivity

This particular tablet was purchased on contract from EE and came with a data SIM which was 4G enabled. The item also has WiFi Bluetooth and a micro USB for charging and connecting peripheral devices. It also has a 3 and a half mm stereo headphone jack that is also TRRS capable.

Availability and accessories

This tablet is as good as new is still as good to use although battery life is slightly reduced. Availability of this tablet is good and a good second hand unit from eBay or possibly classifieds giving you a fantastic tablet a fantastic price. A wide selection of accessories is available. For some time I have purchased I gadgets cases as these are extremely well made and fits your tablets perfectly these are a good purchase to protect your tablet a review on these to come later.

This tablet can still be purchased brand new from Amazon today see link below.

Cost Now

I believe these items are now no longer made and these were a 2014 model. That said these are a fantastic purchase and still work as good today and most at least Android 6. Some can be found on Amazon good refurbished used for around 185 pounds

CONCLUSION

In conclusion, do to build quality and longevity I would give this tablet a rating of 9 out of 10. It has performed flawlessly and I have never had to reset the device due to inactivity and the device has been used almost every day for the last two years.
If it were not for the battery I would have given this a 10 out of 10 this is a fantastic purchase.

9/10
