Had it for about a week now and I absolutely love it! Does everything I was looking for plus a whole lot more. And I only paid 130 for mine. So happy with this purchase!
If you are not stuck on psycho about age then the s3 t820 original list 800.00. I just bought for 130.00 new works And completely smokes any of the 5 budget-mid I have owned. But if you like sporting the latest beast that sucks, do as you like suckers
I got 4/64 version, after using it for a week i found that this tablet exceeded my expectations. So far using it for media consumption and light gaming. Not aware of any lagging. Screen although only 720p, surprisingly performs well. I paired it with my galaxy s10 phone and for this price i cannot find any other reliable tab as this.
Indeed right. I just dont get it people, complaining about this tablet,and probably the dont even own it. Well, for basic usage i think this tab works well. Depends on the usage of course. Paired it with my note 20 ultra
Bought a Tab A7 Lite with the 3GB/32GB configuration two weeks ago. It generally performs fine, aside from the occasional lag and stutter. I used it to watch on Netflix and UA-cam, and while I really loved the crisp audio from the stereo speakers, the video quality with the low resolution screen leaves much to be desired. August 2022 Update: My Galaxy Tab A7 Lite was updated a few months back wherein the software was downgraded to OneUI Core. That meant that the AOD-ish battery percentage indicator while charging was gone. The device has seemingly slowed down too and I'm worried how well the upcoming Android 12 update will work on the device. Also the 32GB internal storage isn't enough. If I'm buying a new tablet, I'm sure getting one with at least 64GB of built-in storage :)
@@christaylor9492 Hi! I haven't downloaded any games in the Tab A7 Lite because I was unsure if they would be any good there 😅 If you like gaming in your tablet, maybe an affordable Realme or Xiaomi tablet, if available near you, would be better.
@@NyLuvDsaur Hi! It was not very ideal for me. But maybe that's just because I'm spoiled by my phone's FHD display😅Other family members are quite enjoying watching Netflix on the tablet's large display though 🙂
Had a Lenovo M8HD for a couple years andI got tired of the slowness . Got the Tab A7lite for $140 out the door at Best Buy. It runs circles around the Lenovo and much more user friendly.
@o_O I know right people just look at paper specs and not the display quality itself, you can have an IMAX resolution screen and still have sht display quality
For $129.99 at Costco with the book cover included, this was hard to pass up. I'm old school with tablets and don't look at them as more than a streaming, e-book, light browsing device. And for that I find it more than adequate and not worth $370 more for an iPad Mini.
@@johngardner869 yeah if i have money i would also buy a small tab other than a big ass tab, like using a huge tab is exhausting, small tabs are also good for reading bc you wont be exhausted from the tabs weight, other people just dont know how this thing is so good to have
Picked this up to use as a larger screen for navigating overland routes using GAIA GPS and Fatmap. Seems to work pretty well at this point. No real plans to use it for anything but navigation but will be adding a micro SD as the map data fills up the internal storage really quick.
I'm about to buy one to run Back Country Pro on. I see you've had it for about a year now, how has it held up to just using it for GPS? That's I'm intended purpose as well.
@@christophernoe5367 I barely use it TBH. The processor is stupid slow for the apps I use on it. We use it more for watching movies before bed when we're camping haha
Forget the negative Nit picking on alot of these reviews... This is an awesome tablet that's affordable and for its price its great for watching movies online surfing on the go, it's great for the price, these reviewers expect it to be like some apple air etc for the price it's amazing.
I bought this after owning a Fire 8. night and day The operating system is way less constricted and the storage actually feels like it's meant to store. It doesn't feel cheap at all. It is way snappier and can handle more multitasking unlike the fire tablets. These are not only affordable but blow the fire tablets out of the water
Bought the A7lite about a year ago. I use it off and on, for UA-cam, Hulu, Netflix, etc. It gets the job done. Even got it for a nice deal from Samsung.
This one reminds me so much of Samsung’s old tablets back in the day. Wonder what it would be like using this tablet after being with the M1 iPad Pro for over a month. Even just going back and using my mom’s iPad Air 3 (same tablet I used to have) it feels slow and small with its 60Hz 10.5” display.
I think Samsung missed the trick with this one. It's beyond me why they haven't come up with a tablet that weights below 300g that could be held on one hand for people who want to use their tabs instead of also carrying their Kindles with them. Ipad mini comes close but beyond me why Samsung just ignores this gap in the market for android.
Bro it's a tablet. If you want to use a touchscreen device with one hand, then get a smartphone. Tablets are made to be big, so don't complain about a tablet being big. Gosh you people are clueless
I have this tablet and it is amazing, everything is good with it, it's so much expensive here in my country but I'm happy to have it, the size is perfect not small not big and she is fast in multitasking. I had before tablet samsung galaxy tab A 8.0 2019 and difference between is so much big, I don't use gaming or movies don't have time lol but the quality is quite good for videos and the screen is clear ... it's the best 8-inch size in my country I wanted tablet 8" with S Pen but not disponible here ... I'm very glad to have this A7 Lite it's do all the job...
8 inch tablet is always my go and I've been waiting to upgrade from Samsung Tab S2 8.0 but everything has gone down hill since. I've mostly use tablet to watch movie when I'm laying down on bed, so great high res screen, at least IPS display is a must and 10 inch is just too heavy to hold it up for hours. Now my S2 is finally saw the end of life and I've been force to buy 3yo Huawei M5 lite because there's nothing else to pick. Low budget one with terrible screen like A7 lite won't cut it. This just sad as I've been Samsung customer since S5 and now iPad mini is seem to be my only option.
Agree, none of these new smaller android tablets can beat the specs of the sony xperia z3 tablet compact aside from android vers. that's from 2014. it's pretty pathetic..
@@baddabaddabaddaswing Yes if they came out with something comparable to iPad mini even with more expensive price. I'll buy that in a heart beat. I'm really don't want to buy iPad since all my app is in Android app store.
My dad got this tablet with his new Samsung phone from his provider and is giving it to me no strings attached. Great for 2nd device for reading and browsing internet and movies is what I plan to use it for.
I just ordered this for my kid. At first I planned to buy the Amazon Fire 7 kids edition, but changed my mind after seeing all the bloatware they added to it. The Fire 7 Kids edition also did not allow home screen customization, and also strangely pushed a lot of political books which I found to be a weird thing to add to a tablet meant for a small child. Anyways I decided to purchase this instead, and I bought a child proof case to go with it. I don’t feel comfortable spending anymore money on a tablet for a small kid 😅 This is certainly no iPad but I think this will do just fine for small games, and movies for the car 👍
What's with you guys and your conned advertising waaaay over priced Ipads ? Get over it. Look around, Even ignoring the $ difference, it doesn't make sense if you can get something as good or better. Try not to get sheered. Anyway...Cheers
I just ordered for 6 year old...I see that gmail and youtube is on the screen....how does this work if you cant put a sim card in it? Appreciate any feedback mate!
I got the Amazon tablet for my kid and hate it. It's almost unusable it's so slow and the app store is very limited. Think I'll be trying one of these.
I have an iPhone 12 mini, and for portability it’s amazing. However sometimes I find myself at home not wanting to use my iPhone 12 mini for entertainment and neither my 55 inch Roku tv so I ended up buying this, and as much as I wanted the iPad mini 6, it’s easily over $500, for plain entertainment it’s more than good enough, no games as that’s why i have my Xbox series X for. I used to own a s8, s9 plus, even a note 5, and while samsung has improved i do still prefer the iPhone as my phone.
I just bought this to to replace an Lenovo tab Ive been using for a head unit in my vehicle. Should work very well with Torque, podcasts, and Nav running. Connects with my Samsung phone with the bluetooth or hotspot WiFi
Use this as a remote control for my living room. Lights, curtains and all my audio and video equipment. I am using the Home Remote software. Works like a charm. Only payed 129 Euro's. The screen is not the greatest, but as a remote control it's efficient.
Excellent review, objective, thorough, and very helpful for someone like myself who is considering buying this tablet. It did what I expected, helped me make a decision. Thanks!
@@R_.709 Playing high def videos isnt the main purpose for this tab. Buy an oled 8K tv is better. But this is perfect for kids, for pos restaurant, for ebook reader, and others basic stuff
Just ordered the 4gb/64gb version for my kiddo and I'm excited. We were getting frustrated with the Fire tab 10 and the Fire OS... glad to be back on samsung
Awesome review! I recently took a look at the Tab 8.4 on my channel, it's a bit of a shame Samsung went for a TFT 720p instead of a quality 1080p IPS. Hopefully we see a better 8" tablet this year :)
Was thinking about the A7 Lite for Uber driving. I'd just like a bigger display for "map following" than my phone. Any thoughts? Other tablets I should look at?
Not sure how comfortable you are with DIYing electronics but nowadays there are some pretty cheap ATOTO stereo units you can upgrade to that have built in android auto/apple carplay
Great tablet for basically everything. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxLNmVocUk8tnSkwWIlYSNFzWRIaFTBuzS I bought it specifically for art, and that 4k screen is really fantastic for it! Also has LOUD audio, even tho the speakers aren't in necessarily prime locations it really projects!You do need to get a case for this bad boy IMMEDIATLY though as it doesn't come with one.Battery life is really good! Standby time us FANTASTIC. This guy can go about a week on standby and be just fine. The screen is massive so the longer you have the screen on, brightness especially, it will effect battery life. I am very happy with it though!One thing that I didn't consider is that since the screen resolution is so high, viewing ticktocks/ reading webtoons can be slightly blurry. There is no way to turn down resolution either, so it just be like that.Would still judge this bad boi at 10/10 for my first tablet. I've had it 3 months now and its not shown any evidence of "slowing down" or anything. Love it!
Not sure if this was mentioned in the comments anywhere...but the screen is a IPS lcd panel and not a TFT panel as Samsung just refers to this name any screen that is not anoled or Qled and not sure why they do this as if it was a TFT screen when you move to view it at angles the colors will shift and with a IPS panel the colors will not shift...and on some sites it mentions it is a IPS panel also...this makes this tablet even a little sweeter. 😊 And good video of this tablet also. 👍
The best 8" is the Tab A P205 or P200 which is the 2019 8" tab a with s pen. The 2020 8.4" is good as well but no s pen. This one has a shit 720p display :(
I know I'm late to the video But am I the only one that wants them to do an 8" tablet with 8GB of ram I don't care about the storage as long as they give me an SD slot you slot on an 8" platform basically to compete with the ipad Mini because I just think that it's used cases are a lot more useful in the long run and it's not so unwieldy to bring around with you
Honestly not a bad tablet to have at home tbh. Got the SIM card one and the kids can text anyone from it. I mainly use it for streaming movies and shows so that’s pretty cool. I also use it as a Nintendo DS emulator but I’m pretty sure that’s the best it can do as far as emulation goes lol
Can you imagine if this budget tablet in 2003? It would have blown your mind! You would have said that with those speakers you could get rid of your auto stereo.
@@milestones305 it's great! The screen size is roughly the size of a Manga book. I read some complaints about resolution, but the screen is pretty crisp. I have never read so much Manga in my life 😁
I'm not worried about the slow charging. But this thing is saddled with only USB 2.0 speed on the USB-C port. 5:28 TFT literally means 'thin film transistor' which means it's an active-matrix LCD panel. It has nothing to do with IPS vs VA vs TN... as all of those are TFT displays. I'd love a replacement for my LG GPad but this is only marginal at best: lower resolution (I got my GPad in 2013... yeah.) I'm sure it will be a bit faster and stuff but overall meh.
Can u make calls and text? Cus for some reason mine doesn't...I called Samsung they said there's 2 types for this tablet one with SIM card and one without...I have the one with but T-Mobile, who sold me the tablet, told me it has to do with my plan they said none of their plans allow calling even though google has said this tablet can make calls and texts...now I'm thinking is it the carriers?
In Indonesia we get free original back cover in seller package, and also is not usual TFT Panel.. but PLS TFT, IPS version that develope by Samsung (IPS develope by LG)
Looking for a gmail, remote desktop and youtube/spotify tablet that i can have it with me on the go on work or at home. Would this sute my needs (LTE version is 140EUR rn)?
I got the cellular A7 Lite for free from my carrier. It's fine enough for emails, watching UA-cam or something to look at while while waiting for appointments but it's not really good for competitive gaming.
Hey there! Thanks for the detailed overview of the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite. It seems like a decent budget-friendly tablet option with some trade-offs, especially in the camera department. The build quality and display sound pretty good for the price point. I have a few questions if you don't mind: 1. How's the battery life in practical, everyday usage? You mentioned it has a 5100mAh battery, but I'd love to know how long it lasts with regular tasks. 2. Have you tried any specific games or apps that pushed the tablet to its limits? I'm curious about its performance in more demanding scenarios. 3. You mentioned it's a good secondary device. Would you recommend it for students for note-taking or reading textbooks? Overall, it looks like a solid choice for basic tasks and media consumption, but I'm interested in these specific aspects. Thanks for your insights!
What I want from a tablet is 8-9 inch screen that I can use to watch UA-cam videos and read manga and check my email. I am getting this with my flip preorder for no additional cost which is a plus. If this doesn't do it for me then I will just consider this a down payment to the new ipad mini
Amazon tablets start slow and stay slow. They degrade quickly, becoming difficult or impossible to use for even the simplest of tasks, like reading a book. I don't bother with their tablets anymore.
As someone bought it. It runs great but the display is horrible for videos.not worth it if you're planning to use it to watch videos. It's definitely worth the extra $60 to get A7 or A8.
How does Netflix and kindle works? I read that Netflix resolution is not up to mark.. and for kindle it’s hard to read at night due to blue glare.. true??
Based on the MOSFET (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor), TFT (Thin Film Transistor) was invented by a US corp in the 50s and is the basis for all our flat screens (as opposed to cathode ray tubes / CRTs), and something that LCDs (liquid-crystal displays) are a part of. In turn TN, MVA, IPS and OLED are all types of LCDs. When a display is only advertised as TFT, LCD or LED it often means that it's a TN panel, the worst kind for mobile devices like tablets or phones due to the poor viewing angles.
Only when viewed from the extreme sides. Otherwise it's pretty much okay, i use Galaxy Tab A 2019(the bigger 10.1 with full hd screen) and it does it's duty as a laptop sidekick.
Just wondering if it comes with anything like “parental control”? Will mainly use it for my daughter‘s home schooling. Currently she’s on an iPad 4th generation which can only upgraded to iPadOS 12.x. Unfortunately it doesn’t come with “parental control “ and my girl is spending too much time on UA-cam etc on daily basis.
Would love if Samsung made a mid-range/higher end tablet in this 8" size!

yeah, i love this one’s fit in hand..

Perfect for kids, for restaurant host, for ebook reader, and others basic stuff but need big screen
The screen is pixelated as it's only 720p
@@R_.709 Dont spreading a fake news. It has 800 x 1340
@@privacyhelp yes just slightly over 720p
But in UA-cam it shows only 720p
@@R_.709 Playing high def videos isnt the main purpose for this tab. Buy an oled 8K tv is better. But this is perfect for kids, for pos restaurant, for ebook reader, and others basic stuff
Just ordered the 4gb/64gb version for my kiddo and I'm excited. We were getting frustrated with the Fire tab 10 and the Fire OS... glad to be back on samsung
Pop socket it'll be fine to hold. Can I use a blue tooth mouse and keyboard?
With the Samsung galaxy tab a7 lite, the micro SD storage can support a 64gb microphone SD card and I have the same tablet, it's awesome
Awesome review! I recently took a look at the Tab 8.4 on my channel, it's a bit of a shame Samsung went for a TFT 720p instead of a quality 1080p IPS. Hopefully we see a better 8" tablet this year :)
Was thinking about the A7 Lite for Uber driving. I'd just like a bigger display for "map following" than my phone. Any thoughts? Other tablets I should look at?
Not sure how comfortable you are with DIYing electronics but nowadays there are some pretty cheap ATOTO stereo units you can upgrade to that have built in android auto/apple carplay
Do you all think it’s a good tablet for emulating games from old systems
Great tablet for basically everything. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxLNmVocUk8tnSkwWIlYSNFzWRIaFTBuzS I bought it specifically for art, and that 4k screen is really fantastic for it! Also has LOUD audio, even tho the speakers aren't in necessarily prime locations it really projects!You do need to get a case for this bad boy IMMEDIATLY though as it doesn't come with one.Battery life is really good! Standby time us FANTASTIC. This guy can go about a week on standby and be just fine. The screen is massive so the longer you have the screen on, brightness especially, it will effect battery life. I am very happy with it though!One thing that I didn't consider is that since the screen resolution is so high, viewing ticktocks/ reading webtoons can be slightly blurry. There is no way to turn down resolution either, so it just be like that.Would still judge this bad boi at 10/10 for my first tablet. I've had it 3 months now and its not shown any evidence of "slowing down" or anything. Love it!
Thanks nice video very descriptive.
I'm buying the lte one to use as my every day phone and all in one device
Not sure if this was mentioned in the comments anywhere...but the screen is a IPS lcd panel and not a TFT panel as Samsung just refers to this name any screen that is not anoled or Qled and not sure why they do this as if it was a TFT screen when you move to view it at angles the colors will shift and with a IPS panel the colors will not shift...and on some sites it mentions it is a IPS panel also...this makes this tablet even a little sweeter. 😊
And good video of this tablet also. 👍
they added the camera because they didn't want to hear people like you whine why they didn't include a camera.
🤣Spot on 💯%
Great review. thanks for the info.
The best 8" is the Tab A P205 or P200 which is the 2019 8" tab a with s pen. The 2020 8.4" is good as well but no s pen. This one has a shit 720p display :(
i actually got a flip cover with it, and it really makes the tab wayy better.
Hi tech daily love your vid
Thanks so much Sean! 🙏
All i wanted was spen compatibility
Right
Id like the size. Im having hard time using the 10.1 inches tab a7
I know I'm late to the video But am I the only one that wants them to do an 8" tablet with 8GB of ram I don't care about the storage as long as they give me an SD slot you slot on an 8" platform basically to compete with the ipad Mini because I just think that it's used cases are a lot more useful in the long run and it's not so unwieldy to bring around with you
Honestly not a bad tablet to have at home tbh. Got the SIM card one and the kids can text anyone from it. I mainly use it for streaming movies and shows so that’s pretty cool. I also use it as a Nintendo DS emulator but I’m pretty sure that’s the best it can do as far as emulation goes lol
Can you imagine if this budget tablet in 2003? It would have blown your mind! You would have said that with those speakers you could get rid of your auto stereo.
Has these conversations a few times
We said "what If" the ZTE ZMaxx came out in the early 2000s it would've been mind blowing.
Lol
Great job. I love your videos
Knowledge and honest
I bought this lil guy mainly for manga reading and it's go na do its small job marvelously 📖😁
How was it for Manga? I want to buy as well for that purpose alone 😆
@@milestones305 it's great! The screen size is roughly the size of a Manga book. I read some complaints about resolution, but the screen is pretty crisp. I have never read so much Manga in my life 😁
@@InconsistentContent that’s great! Thanks for your response, I appreciate it!
The quick starting pamphlet is for the birds. If it has any instructions the printing is so small you need a magnifier.😢😢😢
Is this tablet perfect if I would mainly use it just for reading mangas and comic books?
Thanks for this! Good job
I am deciding whether or not to purchase this for a relative who does browsing and web calls. Is the A7 Lite suitable for these activities?
I'm watching this with the Samsung galaxy a7 I got it recently and I really like the tablet so far and I watches this wo that I know about it more
I just wanna know if it’s fast for web browsing and UA-cam? The Samsung tablet I currently own boots slowly and takes time to load apps, and
I'm not worried about the slow charging.
But this thing is saddled with only USB 2.0 speed on the USB-C port.
5:28 TFT literally means 'thin film transistor' which means it's an active-matrix LCD panel.
It has nothing to do with IPS vs VA vs TN... as all of those are TFT displays.
I'd love a replacement for my LG GPad but this is only marginal at best: lower resolution (I got my GPad in 2013... yeah.) I'm sure it will be a bit faster and stuff but overall meh.
And can u buy a storage card if u run out or storage ?
Can u make calls and text? Cus for some reason mine doesn't...I called Samsung they said there's 2 types for this tablet one with SIM card and one without...I have the one with but T-Mobile, who sold me the tablet, told me it has to do with my plan they said none of their plans allow calling even though google has said this tablet can make calls and texts...now I'm thinking is it the carriers?
In Indonesia we get free original back cover in seller package, and also is not usual TFT Panel.. but PLS TFT, IPS version that develope by Samsung (IPS develope by LG)
will this tab be sufficient just for zoom meetings and internet browsing?
Does this tablet have any biometric unlock? Fingerprint scanner? Face scanning?
Do this tablet take a memory card
Can you see anything when under a bright day or when under the sun on the screen?
Looking for a gmail, remote desktop and youtube/spotify tablet that i can have it with me on the go on work or at home. Would this sute my needs (LTE version is 140EUR rn)?
hi how's the screen quality on this tablet and can you play 1080p videos on youtube ?
Yes you can I bought one yesterday
Thanks. Just got one for basic use. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S21 5G.
I got the cellular A7 Lite for free from my carrier. It's fine enough for emails, watching UA-cam or something to look at while while waiting for appointments but it's not really good for competitive gaming.
have you tried roblox or minecraft at all? if so was it good or bad?
@kenleeyt I haven't but I'd imagine Minecraft would be alright
@@edgexl8327 okay, thank you! i may be getting either this one or the a8 or s6 lite but im not sure which one yet
Hey there!
Thanks for the detailed overview of the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite. It seems like a decent budget-friendly tablet option with some trade-offs, especially in the camera department. The build quality and display sound pretty good for the price point.
I have a few questions if you don't mind:
1. How's the battery life in practical, everyday usage? You mentioned it has a 5100mAh battery, but I'd love to know how long it lasts with regular tasks.
2. Have you tried any specific games or apps that pushed the tablet to its limits? I'm curious about its performance in more demanding scenarios.
3. You mentioned it's a good secondary device. Would you recommend it for students for note-taking or reading textbooks?
Overall, it looks like a solid choice for basic tasks and media consumption, but I'm interested in these specific aspects. Thanks for your insights!
Bro I am replying in samsung galaxy A7 lite it good but battery u need 2 times 100% for 1 day
Second question big games like cod pubg like heavy game lag but game like,e roblox Minecraft it very good
Third question it too much good for like 150 dollars I am a student also it good I think recommed for student
What I want from a tablet is 8-9 inch screen that I can use to watch UA-cam videos and read manga and check my email. I am getting this with my flip preorder for no additional cost which is a plus. If this doesn't do it for me then I will just consider this a down payment to the new ipad mini
Is Samsung Knox available for this ? I'm thinking my use might be for some email, Citrix, kindle. Should I go with the regular a7 instead?
Fyi. It is! My work email works fine.
Bezzle's on a phone or a tab or good to have because otherwise you're accidentally pressing the screen alot. I know from experience.
I use a popsocket on the bottom third of the tablet and I hold it like a big phone. It works great.
Amazon tablets start slow and stay slow. They degrade quickly, becoming difficult or impossible to use for even the simplest of tasks, like reading a book. I don't bother with their tablets anymore.
As someone bought it. It runs great but the display is horrible for videos.not worth it if you're planning to use it to watch videos. It's definitely worth the extra $60 to get A7 or A8.
I'm very underwhelmed especially after using S7
How does Netflix and kindle works?
I read that Netflix resolution is not up to mark.. and for kindle it’s hard to read at night due to blue glare.. true??
Is it true that it doesn't support sleep/wake with the magnetic case?
Yes it’s true, there’s no magnet sensors.
This tablet is a good to give a Grandma or Grandfather to read e-books.
Lmao and some people are saying that this is a StUdEnT TaBlEt.🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
@ANONYMOUS . Sure because most student only need tab for taking note or do some online class and open some pdf/word docs. Nothing more
Yeah .. its really help some student at this moment
@@privacyhelp thats what tab s6 lite for or base 10’5 ipad
Based on the MOSFET (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor), TFT (Thin Film Transistor) was invented by a US corp in the 50s and is the basis for all our flat screens (as opposed to cathode ray tubes / CRTs), and something that LCDs (liquid-crystal displays) are a part of. In turn TN, MVA, IPS and OLED are all types of LCDs.
When a display is only advertised as TFT, LCD or LED it often means that it's a TN panel, the worst kind for mobile devices like tablets or phones due to the poor viewing angles.
Only when viewed from the extreme sides. Otherwise it's pretty much okay, i use Galaxy Tab A 2019(the bigger 10.1 with full hd screen) and it does it's duty as a laptop sidekick.
@@vishnumenon6541 Tab A 10.1 uses IPS or similar, not TN.
@@LutraLovegood nope the 2019 twins too (8.0 and 10.1) uses TFT panels.
@@vishnumenon6541 Both TN and IPS are made with TFT (thin film transistors). You might as well be saying your car is not a type of vehicle.
Great video as always ;)
Can it play call of duty and or be used with DJI fly app???
IS there a messaging system like there is with the ipad and if so can you message ihpone users?
I got the 32gb/3gb wifi version and it feels like it gets laggy sometimes
Really nice review. Top marks
Yo, that 108F temperature 😳
🔥😎
Just wondering if it comes with anything like “parental control”? Will mainly use it for my daughter‘s home schooling. Currently she’s on an iPad 4th generation which can only upgraded to iPadOS 12.x. Unfortunately it doesn’t come with “parental control “ and my girl is spending too much time on UA-cam etc on daily basis.
Yes it does, it has android 11 and android 11 supports the parental control feature

Hey tech daily i have the normal tab a7 i think its better with 4 speakers can you please do a comparison between the tab a7 vs tab a7 lite ?
Yes, please compare the 2! Besides the A7 Lite being 1.4 inches smaller and $50 cheaper, why would I get the A7 Lite over the 10.4" A7?
Search up fishbee tab a7 vs tab a7 lite as he did quite a good video on it
