    as a daily user of the tab a7 lite (bought for about 100 usd it was 169 cad) i have to say it holds its own. its not a powerhouse but i get about 10 hours per charge, plays games fine, nice display, and ive even dropped it twice from gut height without any damage beyond a little nick in a trim piece.

      would it be good for reading books online and alsp practising a little coding in an online coding platform from the browser(the processing doesnt happen on the tab, but on the server of the website)? I just need it to read books and code while laying on my bed, so just want to make surs the text isnt too grainy or pixelated because of the inferior display.

    I think the A7 Lite is an excellent bargain for what you get at that price point. It is nearly 1/3 the cost of the iPad mini.
    That being said, the design choice of putting the usb and headphone jacks close to the edge of the bezel vs. the bezel center is a cost savings decision. By placing the ports on the edge of the bezel they can making the casement thinner without sacrificing structural integrity. Therefore, using less material and saving a few pennies/device.

USB port and headphone jack you say are not center. Makes perfect sense to me as the cables will be flush when on a table. Causing no stress to cables.

  • @khanscombe619

    I got the iPad Mini 6, it’s brilliant so far. The on-screen keyboards need some re-work. (Too crammed or too big, need an adjustable), text/font scaling can use a re-work as well, but looks great otherwise. Amazing color & sharpness. As an Apple Mac long time user for home, it just makes sense, fits in w/ the echo system.
    I’ve owned Galaxy, primarily the Note Fablets since new, love them, so I’d miss my S-Pen. My note’s felt their sluggish age in 3 yrs but U can still use them OK. 2015 iPad Mini 4 is currently on iOS 15.4.
    Both nice depending on your echo system or needs. I find the iPad Mini 6 better in its class (small form faster) right now. A Galaxy Note 20 Ultra in 8.8” size would be amazing though. I’d buy it. Prolly £1,200

      Was looking to get one of these for an all in one daily driver device, the ipad mini is almost there but I has no ear peice on the LTE version and doesn't operate well as a phone while the A7 lite strives in the LTE department it doesn't support spen input and the cameras are a hog load of shit, totally uncomparable to phone cameras or even the ipad mini camera. In that aspect I'd prefer a A7 lite LTE with a better screen and performance as well as spen support or the ipad mini with a better software that doesn't look like a blown up iPhone and better LTE UX with an ear peice to communicate when receiving calls.

    I like Apple's cameras and over all the way it runs smooth. I just hate that there's always a battery issue after a while, like the battery charges super fast or slow but the battery will die after 1 1/2 hrs. Also the fact that they've purposely slowed down device's to make it's customer's upgrade to a newer product. Samsung on the other hand has been built like a tank but obviously runs a bit slower and the cameras aren't that good. At least in the budget side of things.

Camera, I have a dedicated camera that is used to take pictures and I have a GoPro. Performance, neither of these tablets will compare to my PC. RAM, my desktop prior to this one had 32G and my current will be probably get upgraded to 64G. Apps, WinChokes for somethings and distro for the rest and Proton is coming along very well also. Pricing, my GPU costs about the same as a iPad Mini 6. Devices are chosen overall for price, form factor and usage. What is the logic of comparing these two devices when one is designated as Lite? At this moment the "Mini 6" is at ~$670+ USD while the Lite is ~$119. How about those who rip DVD/BD to a microSD, that's a lot of content. Consider that this Lite unit makes for a great starter tablet for young people. They drop it accidently, you're out far less cash than what one would pay for a "Mini 6". Did you review this and realize that you come across as Apple shill? Note that the "Mini 6" is a fine product.

    I used to be a huge Apple fanboy until my best friend gave me his old crappy 7" Galaxy Tab in 2015. I loved the Android and Samsung experience and it opened my mind!
    In 2016 I decided to buy a brand new 7" Galaxy Tab A6 which only came with 8GB storage and like 1GB RAM. Guess what? I used that tablet heavily for 4 straight years, using it like 10+ hours a day for 4 straight years. And in 201 it still worked fine, it was pretty fast for a cheap Samsung tab and for a 4 years old tablet. I just hated that I always had literally 0GB storage and always had to delete stuff every single day. That was so annoying. I also hated the 1 speaker it had on the back. Anyway, that little tablet made me fall in love even more with Samsung tablets and I finally bought the $600 Galaxy Tab S7. Best electronic device I have ever used! It's a blessing from God, since iPads are very limited and don't have many of its functions and features. The Tab S7 (& S8 soon), is the best value for a tablet.
    That said, the iPad Mini is my favorite iPad lineup and I love them a lot too! They are very important for me, because I'm a heavy mobile gamer and a 10" inch or bigger tablet is too big, heavy and uncomfy for playing games. So I always play on my iPad Mini 5. I also love using Procreate with my Apple pencil 1. I hope the iPad Mini keeps getting popular!

    Besides the size of the two tablets I don't think this is a fair comparison just keep note that the iPad mini is around 500 plus dollars base model The Samsung a7 lite is 159 here base model so of course is going to be some huge differences That's over three times the price so I would hope that it would have better qualities than every aspect but yes I would recommend the a7 lite if you just want to do it for media consumption and for a young child and if you want to just save money if you have the money to spend then yes getting the iPad mini would be a great option but if you have that much money to spend and know that the iPad mini only has 64GB base model starting at 499 and that's very low if you intend to use that as you stated iPads have such great support software support for 4 or 5 years or so but this thing fills out its capacity after the first year how good is that if the software updates eat up your near storage and you have nowhere to install anything also note that that doesn't have SD card slot and then if you pay for the higher model of the iPad it goes to 256 storage I believe and that's about $150 more so now you're getting into the iPad pro 11 inch territory and from there I would actually just recommend an iPad pro so to me the iPad mini is a very small niche market that I don't really recommend for most people but I actually recommend an iPad pro to people because it's simply starts out at a higher storage Of course it's going to be more expensive but then go back to the argument of how much storage the iPad mini has 64 is nothing nowadays especially for a tablet that has no expandable storage

      Yeah, these tablets aren't really in competition with one another. They're at entirely different price points. Something would be horribly wrong if the iPad wasn't overwhelmingly better. When you look at them in the proper context the A7 Lite is a good tablet for its price tag and the iPad Mini is a mediocre tablet for its price point.

      The point of this video is if it's worth it to spend 3-4 times as much for the iPad mini. For basic web browsing and watching videos, the answer for most people is no. If you're playing games or using apps that need the extra power, and want an 8" screen, then yes. Although the standard iPad is a better deal than either of these.

    Easy conclusion for me: I‘d never buy Samsung/Android again. I got the Samsung Tab S2 and it was good for about one year. No updates came and it got sluggy as hell. Besides the expandable space with a micro SD isn’t really useful because Android refuses to use the SD card as internal space so you just got the base GB of space and maybe 128GB SD card for fotos…If you just want a nice tablet for youtube take the S7. If you want more from a tablet always buy the iPad.

A year later i tried finding a cheap 7-8 inch tab and opted for the A7 lite. Booting it up takes 2 minutes, ok not that bad since i will use it for a couple hours. But what i dont understand is why a 2021 tablet still performs like something from 2015, it feels really sluggish. Thats why im now opting 2 years later to buy the ipad mini 6 since i cant find a 7-8inch tablet that is fast. Sure you can find cheaper and faster 10inch tablets but they are too big for my liking.
