Samsung Tablets Reviews

Samsung is my "go to" brand for all my tablet & phone needs. I've tried other brands but I keep coming back to it as my source for all my smartphone & tablet purchases! They are the best in my eyes and have continued to be the choice of 2/3 members of my family. The other member is an iPhone user, but, when his IPhone dies, he always relies on a backup Samsung smartphone!

I own the Samsung Tab 2, which I have had for a few years now. I'm not big on spending a ton of money on the newest gadgets, but I really try and research and read reviews all over on the internet and look for the best product and value. That is why I chose the Samsung tab2. I have had little issues with this tablet and I use it everyday! I do need to plug it into the charger every night, but that's because I surf a lot, take photos and generally am on it all the time. I delete my browsing very frequently, so this keeps the speed up on it running just fine. I would recommend it highly.

I purchased a new Galaxy Tab S6 and traded in my Galaxy Tab S4 for it. They are starting my screen and camera is cracked on my trade in. I took pics of my tablet before sending and you can see there were zero cracks on my tablet. Upon searching about their trade in program I'm not alone, it seems a lot of people have had these issues. Now they want to charge me 200.00 because my trade in was cracked. It was not. It was in an OtterBox case from the day I got that tablet until I sent it to them for trade, even with what's going on in the world with this virus all I receive back are generic responses saying they won't fix the issue.

What a rip off. This company is built on pushing cheap and quickly outdated technology to keep you buying every year. Disgusting. I spent good money on a tablet SM-T320 that is now a glorified camera as it won't support any updates. NEVER buying a Samsung product again. #boycottsamsung

BEWARE, BAIT AND SWITCH! So, I dropped my brand new S4 Galaxy Tablet Nov 18' at one month old. Now, I've been using it for a year and 2 months with cracked screen down in the corner. It's been and still is fully functional. So finally, I decided to go without it for a couple weeks to get it repaired. I called the Samsung repair center and had an extended conversation how I know that it's ONLY THE TOUCH SCREEN and how I had other repair centers examine it and their techs all agreed. Plus, I know because I AM a diagnostic technician myself and I've repaired touchscreens on phones before but couldn't get my hands on an authentic touchscreen for this tablet. They gave me a quote of $107.17 and I paid by CC over the phone, they were also nice enough to send a UPS call-tag.

I paid $2000 for my 65" Samsung 4K TV about 4 years ago. Shortly after the warranty expired I started seeing bad places on the screen. I contacted Samsung and they simply told me to find a repair center. They were no help at all! No more Samsung TVs for me!

Purchased a Samsung S5e tablet online at samsung.com during its product launching last April 25th. May 2019, my problems started. Samsung replaced the tablet but I discovered that the tablet replaced was a 64 GB and not the 128 GB I paid for. I had to beg and wait for more than a month for Samsung to give me the shipping label. I shipped the wrong tablet Samsung gave me since Oct 2019. It's already December 9th and still no replacement and no resolution. I offered to get a refund and for the past 2 weeks the case managers have been telling me to wait because it's with upper management. My case has been ongoing for 8 months now and I am desperate.

I bought Samsung Galaxy Tab E 9.6 16 GB mainly for reading in the train. However, although fully charged, this tablet did not work every day. Sometimes it did and sometimes it did not. I contacted Samsung about it, they told me to send it and the charger to Samsung ASC Service. I did as instructed, although I live in Brooklyn New York and really have other things to spend my time for. But put this aside, here is what happened. They took my good charger, put the broken one instead in the box and sent the tablet back to me. It still does not work. I have a broken charger and a defected tablet. I paid for it, I wasted my time on dealing with them. Oh and the phone conversation with them... You'll get to hear all their advertisements while you wait. No one will get there for 20 min. Then they will be nice but useless. If you really want to waste some money and time and feel helpless and powerless, buy Samsung product.

My mother bought this tablet for me as a Christmas gift on Black Friday of 2017. This was a wonderful idea at first, because as an artist, I could use the tablet as something to sketch on given that it had pen pressure and a palm rejection feature for drawing (although I would recommend anyone buying similar tablets with palm rejection to purchase a drawing glove to prevent the screen from jerking during drawing). For a good while, this was my go-to on-the-go drawing device, as my Fujitsu Lifebook T5010 was reliable, but clunky and old as it came out in 2006.

Purchased tablet A from Costco, after 6 months was not charging properly. Samsung sent me to U-Fix-It, they were useless and the same problem persisted. They told me it was probably the port and sent me to the new store in the Eaton Centre. They now tell me it needs a whole new board and they don't have the part in stock! I am heading out of town for 1 month and don't have a tablet, would never recommend Samsung again. Originally had a Tablet 10 and it broke down after a couple of years. I guess the iPad will be my next purchase.

I have owned a Windows-based Galaxy Tab Pro 4S for almost two years. The machine failed several months ago and after troubleshooting the device I determined that it was a battery issue. Without going into the details I found Samsung to be unresponsive, unhelpful and unwilling to assist in the resolution. I attempted to purchase a replacement battery from them to do the repair myself (I have 40 years of relevant IT experience) and they refused to sell it to me. Their counter was to have me send it to them at a cost of approximately $350 so that they could 'troubleshoot' the issue and then charge me the additional cost of parts and labor to finish the repairs. The machine only cost $650 new. Charging half the cost to fix it because it was out of warranty is totally unjustified in my opinion.

The S2 battery is awful, I only downloaded a couple games, never use it for anything else... I turned off any notifications, alerts or anything else that could possibly drain the battery. Why the hell does the battery drain in an hour? I stop the games manually when I'm not using them by my settings, but still drains, you people are nothing but money grubs. Now I have to go and what figure out at Best Buy what can possibly be done about it? I am posting this to Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram...you stink.

I purchased a Samsung 7" tablet for my granddaughter on Jan. 8, 2018 to replace the model she had for 2 years. It "froze" and then would not charge, this was on May 30, 2018. I called support & they sent me a "new" (probably refurbished) tablet. I sent the "broken" one back. On July 31, 2018 the same situation occurred. I again called support & a "new" tablet was mailed to me. I sent the "broken" one back. Here we go again - Nov. 23 the same problem occurred. My son-in-law did some research & told me that there appears to be a battery problem with these tablets. I will call support again & this time I will mail it back. I just ordered a Fire Tablet for my granddaughter, I've had it with the Samsung tablet!

On June 22, 2018, I purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab A and it quit working in August 2018. Best Buy in Calgary, Alberta, Canada replaced the defective one with a new tablet on August 14, 2018. The second tablet quit working Oct. 3, 2018. The Samsung Galaxy Tab A is defective and Samsung and Best Buy should not be selling it.

Please do NOT buy any Samsung products unless you are willing to settle for a throw-away item, and horrendous customer service. Earlier this month, I contacted Samsung Support by telephone regarding my Galaxy Tab S2 (8.0, 4G) with the issue of a swollen battery. Sound familiar? They took my information, as well as the tablet information, and emailed me a repair order confirmation plus a UPS label to ship the tablet to the Samsung Repair Center in New Jersey. Shortly thereafter, I received an email that stated that due to the tablet being an international model, they could not fix it but would be returning it to me without service.

I used my tablet (ST-350) to check emails and Facebook when I am away from the computer. This morning I wake and tablet would not respond. Placed it on the charger to see if the battery had run down, no indication of charge. I noticed the case was warm and as I inspected the back the case is actually melted. Glad I caught it before it could have started a fire.

It was working fine and we had no issues till the 13th month, which is incidentally a month after expiry of warranty. When picked up late at night, it was extremely hot (idle). It would not come on, reset or shut down and continued to heat till we became afraid it would catch fire or explode. After half an hour of trying it reset or switched off without the screen coming on. Two visits to the Samsung service center revealed a burnt motherboard and Display. Cost of repairs - 75% of the cost of purchase. It is now a piece of junk furniture. Not everyone can afford a Tablet every year.

This android tablet is easily comparable to an Apple brand iPad. No freezing up or crashes, real quality for the price. The best product I ever reviewed.

https://youtu. be/X0S-s_GByCg I think the video link above kinda says it all however, long story short. Presented my Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 (10.1) SM-T530 with a battery that had imploded and smashed the screen from within. Samsung Cambodia (official repairer and representative of Samsung) said they can not fix it and will not fix it but acknowledged that the battery was faulty - scary given I have 2 more of these I use for my charity work (solo HIV charity worker here). I told them I was going to post the whole thing on Facebook and they suddenly wanted the docket back - the piece of paper that proves I had lodged the item for repair. I refused, this is my only proof and I am keeping it.

My Tab S2 proved to have an original equipment problem which Samsung admitted could not be fixed. They approved a 'like kind' replacement. I accepted a similar tablet, refurbished. Nevertheless, Samsung has declined to either return my old machine or to send a replacement. After repeated calls spanning three months Samsung has, every time, assured me that I would be contacted within 48 hours. Not one reply has ever been received. A contact with the Office of the President did result in a return call assuring me that I would receive two calls that very day. One from Tech and one from the troubleshooter. No calls were received. All replies, including at the highest level, are being squelched. This suggests a very high level coverup of what is surely a much larger problem than just my tablet. The only reasonable assumption is that they are hiding from a possible recall issue. They have effectively stolen my tablet as part of their coverup.

I spoke with three different entities at Samsung about my Tablet (SM-T310), and I explained three times what the problem was and what I had done to try to fix the problem. The closest I got to a real answer was "it sounds like you have a hardware problem." I know I have a hardware problem, but the "holding fee" of $129 to repair the tablet is higher than what I can purchase a working tablet for on the open market. Sadly, I am not in a position to replace the tablet, and the proposed fee is unacceptable and disappointing. The service overall was inconsistent and not what I expect from a company such as Samsung.

Samsung 10.1 2014 edition tablet - has never ever been dropped. Has always had an Otterbox case. 6 months ago the screen went black. I did the YouTube fix (detaching the screen cable) this worked for a while. But when tablet is turned off the black screen problem appears again. The screen now won't come on at all. I've researched all over the web, this is a COMMON FAULT!!! I will never ever buy a SAMSUNG product again. I just bought a Huawei Mate 10 phone, DO NOT TRUST SAMSUNG!! There is a review saying something about a kill switch after 3 years, I know this sounds like a conspiracy theory, but my tablet is in immaculate condition, and screen just stops working, this is pathetic, only 2 years old!!

Ordered a kid tablet for my daughter for Christmas gift on December 4. December 23 no product as promised by customer service. I canceled the order. Received cancel confirmation. Money will reimburse back in 5-10 business days. Called and emailed every week with no luck. STILL WAITING ON MY REFUND. NEVER BUY ANYTHING FROM SAMSUNG DIRECT ANYMORE.

Received a Galaxy tab (Samsung tablet A 10.1) a as a gift for my birthday back in Feb of 2017. By June of 2017 the thing would not come on out is suppose to have a year warranty but when I took it back to Best Buy they claimed they could not do anything due to me not having a receipt although they can look up by serial number. I received no help. My cousin lives in a different state so there is no way she can come in with her credit card. I can get no help from Best Buy or Samsung. This company should have to replace these defective devices. They know there is a problem with this product but they refuse to help. Their license to sell in America should be revoked. Never will I buy Samsung and I use to love them. I had phone tv than everything that I'm ready to sell and go with LG. They have always had great products.

Am sharing my issues related to Samsung tablet A 10.1" which I bought from Dubai and am here in Karachi, Pakistan. After a month usage it started giving a black screen and I took it to repair shop as in Karachi. No Samsung tablet repair service centre is not there. So the ribbon problem is there and secondly after 4 months the tablet has shown another issues that was the charging ic issue and now it's of no use as it's with me like a junk piece. Can any Samsung repair person pls. Guide me? Can anyone guide me for the tablet repair or provide me the guideline. Need help desperately as it's a very costly tablet and totally in vain. Need someone to help me regarding the service or repair of the said tablet at Karachi, Pakistan.

I've had two Samsung tablets and my son has one. All three just stopped working for no reason at around three years. They could not be fixed. I believe Samsung has a kill switch in these machines so they can sell more of them.

I purchased a Samsung Tab A for gaming, email and to watch movies and for the first 4 - 5 weeks I was very satisfied. But after the 4th 5th week, anytime it was below 50% battery life left, it would randomly reset itself. So, I just made sure that I would charge it when it close to the half way mark. This went on for maybe 2 weeks of daily use and then it worked it self up to anything below 90% and it will automatically reset itself whenever it feels like and sometimes goes into a reset loop with plugging it in to a power source being the way out of the loop or timing it right with hard reset by holding the top 2 keys on the right and the center key at the bottom simultaneously bringing up a service screen where you can perform a factory, reset, a restore, wipe the cache, install updates or reboot.

Sent my 2 year old Samsung Galaxy tablet to Samsung for repair the first of June. Did not hear from them and every time I called I got the run around. Finally, contacted the BBB and Samsung finally called and said it was in the tech department. Got a call from them and they said it would be $199 for repair. I can get a new one for that. Then I received a phone call stating I would get the repair done at no cost. However, today (two months later) I received it via UPS and a note was in it (not signed) saying it could not be done because of cost. SAMSUNG Service is TERRIBLE. I believe they should still repair it because of the trouble they have given me.

I purchased a Tab E because I was told I could buy HDMI cable and watch movies on my television. He neglected to inform me that Samsung no longer makes the cable so I cannot connect to my TV. Now I am stuck with a device for two years that I can't use. I tried to watch Amazon movies, can't do that either. The sound is horrible and you have to wear ear buds to hear. Do not purchase this tablet.

Purchased a brand new Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8.0 - 2016 release directly from Samsung... December 2016. A few weeks ago (around 4/12/17) I called Samsung Support in the USA. I informed that the tablet usb charger was getting very, very hot and that it burned my hand. I was instructed to return it via UPS so I did.
