My review: mynexttablet.com/samsung-gala...
The Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.5 is a 10.5-inch Android tablet with a full HD display and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 450 octa-core processor. As you can see in my review, the Galaxy Tab A 10.5 has a good screen and decent build quality. However, the facial recognition and performance could be better. On the other hand, the battery life is excellent. And it should get an update to Android 9.0 Pie in the future.
What do you think about the Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.5?

I need a tablet that has a USB port and also take an SD card of similar.. and can get a key board..I have an ASUS from many years ago that the screen removes from the Keypad.. is there anything similar.
When you d it didn't support pens, did you mean the S-Pen specifically or generic tlet pens also?
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!
I would like to know if you can get netflix with the wi-fi only. I plan to cruise and I would like to watch netflix. and does it connect we'll to wireless ear pods. You mention it does not connect with Netflix HD; never paid attention to HD but is there much difference
Just brought mine from the local pawn shop used with a sprint sim card included inside for 85 dollars. It also updated itself to andriod 10...... What a great day! 😁👍 I appreciate your review.
Does this camera feature live focus for the blur background?
Thanks so much for the review I just ordered this tablet for my birthday and I can't wait for it to arrive this review was so helpful (update!) I have been using this tablet for a while now and I love it the fast charger is very fast the tablet is very fast and has great performance also you can move apps to the sd card so your main storage stays full and speed up the tablet also the quad speakers with dolby atmos sound amazing i would definitely recommend this tablet
Daniel 12345 can u watch hd on nextflix?
Omg I'm getting that tablet in 4 days
@@queenbee6622 I'm not sure I haven't checked it yet I would say it was fixed in a update try contacting Samsung
@@AliHussain-cy9xg nice enjoy it's very good
I have this tablet too, but I cant access game launcher
I've SM-T385. Seems like 2018 version doesn't differ much from 2017 version. Camera should have been upgraded.
What is the stand that you use??
Can you make calls and messages with this tablet?
Please, do you believe it is worth to upgrade from a SM T580 (Galaxy Tab A 10.1 2016) ? It does not seem much of an improvement looking at the specs on paper. Also the SM T580 is getting Android 8.1 before the end of the year... and still works OK for me.. so I am not compelled to update yet... Thank you!
You don't need it when yours breaks get the new one sinple
I wouldn't say so. The only major differences are four instead of two speakers and no buttons so thinner bezels. The Galaxy Tab A 10.1 is still for sale and holds up well.
By now, the SM T580 Tab A 10.1 2016, should be running Oero. Mine is and typing this reply from it right now. Unless you need the quad speakers, the extra performance of the processor and ram, you are better off saving your money. Or, you could sell yours and get the later model.
can you please make a review on its keyboard!!!
I have a problem. This ipad has 3gb ram right? Why does it run any game at like 10 fps i tried nascar heat mobile and i couldn't even drive how laggy it was. The thing is my friend has an iphone 6s with 2gb ram and the game runs smootly like what????
Can it make calls ?
M5 lite or this? And i don't care about camera or sound it is mostly about how fast it is for internet and gaming
Does it support stylus for note taking
Does these use cellular services
But where is the mic located? Point to the holes and say what they are.
Does this tab have hotspot?
Hello. is it worth to buy this tab for 220 euro in this 2020 year? i like this tablet, because it has very low SAR ~ 0,555 (EU). But IDK about Screen quality, it has only 216 ppi.. Thanks for any reply!
Should I go for this or the Lenovo Tab 4 10 Plus 4 gb version? Both of them are priced the same here. I need a tab for watching 1080p videos, reading comics and magazines, and editing the photos taken on my camera.
Please suggest me the better tablet between the two.
I read on the net that the lenovo corrupts micro sd cards
@@ninehunid True, I had the tab 4 10 plus, very bad tablet, slow, very poor optimalisation, apps crashing, poor battery life, sluggish scrolling and performance, no software updates from lenovo and as a bonus the speakers on my unit stopped working and the charger stopped working after 2 months.
They also stopped the software updates for lenovo
This is my favorite tablet and runs android 10 one ui 2.1 has so many great features that also the galaxy tab s7 has.
I bought this tablet but when I charge the tablet I don't get any light that can show if the device is charging. Tablet is charging fine but no red light indicator. Please let me know if its only me or if there is no light indicator in this tablet? Anyone please help.
I'm pretty sure there is an lightning indicator which means ur charging
Is this tablet support s pen?
How can you recommend the Huawei M5 when you apparently can't use bluetooth and wifi at same time? That should be a deal breaker on a device that doesn't have a headphone jack
I agree. Was heavily considering buying the Huawei M5 10.8 but the headphone jack and WIFI/Bluetooth issues are ridiculous.
Is that actually true? That is hilariously stupid if so.
Does it have Samsung DexX
I'm getting this.
I dig your unusual accent.

Telstra has this table on a $20 a month for 24 months with 10gig of data plan in Australia total $480 would that be Worth it?
It is worth it. I actually have one from telstra and they added another 5gb because I'm a student. Also you can use another sim and use it as a regular phone. Good luck :)
I miss night mode in tab 10.5 2018 .do you think it will get android 9 update and dark night mode because I hate white bright theme everywhere. I have now both tab 10.1 2019 and 10.5 models and I am thinking which one to return. I hate 2 speakers vs 4 and light mode vs night mode.
I was struggling with this decision at bestbuy last night. $299 CAD or a 2019 tab a 10.1 with 2gb ram, 2 speakers and 64gb storage and newer OS. Or $349 for the 2018 Tab A 10.5 (bigger scree) with 3gb ram and 32gb storage, 4 speakers. Is the processing speed really that different? I feel like with budget processors you want more ram to help juggle things. Also will the older tab a get updated to 9.0 anytime soon?
I was trying to make this decision for my dad. I grabbed the tab S5e for myself and the 128gb with 6gb ram and it runs very smooth. But it's got wifi issues if you hold it a certain way and the message continuity thing they advertise isn't working with my note9. So I'm questioning if it's worth the investment.
One final note. I find because these new 2019 tablets are so thin they cut into your hands when you hold them for extended periods.
@@DerekJamesMandy 10.5 will get new os in October I read it on Samsung webpage.
I have compared all of the 3 and for more resolution 1444p UA-cam and sharper Netflix than A 10.5 I got for me s5e and for my tweens of 7y I got 10.5. So I have returned A 10.1 because of 2Ram and 2 speakers although it has beter screen resolution in practice then A10.5.
Price from Media Markt : a5e with sale 340€ plus €80 for 3y omnium warranty includes damage or steal =money back
Price A10.5 € 240 inc 3y omnium warranty.
For a10.5 I bought awesom case from Amazon ,Ztotop Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10,5 SM-T590N / SM-T595N hoes case 2018

Appreciated
Microsoft Office apps come pre-installed on all Samsung Galaxy phones and tablets. You can see them in the video.
You said it's expensive and could get better tablets for similar price. What are those tablets that you recommend for that similar price? Thanks.
Brian Tan He said in the video, iPad 2018 and Huawei mediapad m5 lite 10.
Brian Tan iPad 2018 with A10 fusion chip for $330 is actually the best value tablet currently.

@@souar2 in Canada the older unit is $50 more. But as georgio mentions there's some perks for the extra $50 on the older unit.
The galaxy tab a processor is way better and so is camera
Oh I really want to buy it!!!
Is possible use app as "adobe illustrator draw" with this tablet?
And the wacom pen is supported?
Thx guys.
The app should work. However, it does not support any kind of active pen.
I can not use a pen drive on mine. Does this tablet have OTG on the go?
I have this tablet and Its great. Mines was updated to Android pie during the summer and it's a decent tablet for gaming. The tablet also charges quickly with the included fast charger; and the battery runtime is great as well. Overall a great tablet for media consumption and entertainment.
does it heat up a lot?
@@retalistar No, it stays cool to the touch even under heavy usage.
@@MrBEasy24 good gaming tablet? cuz I ordered it
@@retalistar you can game on it as well, some games that are demanding you run at the highest settings such as pubg and call of duty mobile. Overall I game allot on mines and it's holds up well.

Does it have s pen feature like the 2016 model?
No, it doesn't support s pen
Is netflix HD supported by now ?
@@manasmehra124 • Wait is it really
No!
My Tab A 10.1 2016 is finally starting to give me some problems, particularly with the speakers. For some reason they started to crackle and pop at times. With a headset on, it's quite disturbing! I use my tablet primarily for media consumption, like UA-cam, Netflix, Prime and CBS All Access. I seldom use my tablet for email as I prefer using a real keyboard. I'm definitely NOT any Apply anything, so that is out of the question. Also not a gamer, not even solitaire, so I usually motor through those parts of your review videos. I don't mind the price but question the specs. I'm keeping my 10.1 until it completely drives me bonkers or flat out quits! I bought a Lenovo Tab 4 as a backup and have some regrets though the price was outstanding. I think Samsung is starting to try to appeal to the Apple Products users instead of grandma's like me! Good review though. I get to save some money, for now!
That's interesting, i've had the popping/crackling speakers on my Tab A 10.1 2016, looking to replace it soon with potentially the A 10.5. My mum has the Motorola G6 with the same 450 processor and it's certainly faster than the 10.1 2016 model.
So is it a good tablet?
Nice tablet stand .... Where you buy that?
The Ipad's updates are not longer running than android! And the updates slows the ipad down, far more then android devices!
I got mine when they were on sale a few months ago for $249.00. I use the swipe pattern to unlock mine.
LateNite does the rear camera on this tablet feature live focus for the blur background?
@@williamthomas-pott3161 sorry but I don't know anything about cameras. I use it only for watching movies, videos and browsing. Same with my phone.
I got this like today it was £249.99 to buy it
which stylus will work on this tab ?
It does not support an active pen...
I had to buy this instead of the mediapad thanks to someone but still my first impression are quite well it's very good for students .
I wanted to get the mediapad too, but trump decided to buttfuck Huawei.
Can you write on it ?
Does anybody know how long this will continue to get updates for?
It'll probably get Android 10 in September. But I don't expect it to get Android 11 because 10 will be the second update. Usually, the Galaxy Tab A tablets get two updates.
@@MyNextTablet thanks a million!
can the S Pen of the S3 or S4 work with this tablet sir?
Andrew Boey No it's not S pen compatible.
@@Toyeboy89 Well, that sucks. Thanks. I almost bought it.
@@annel9419 if you want a Samsung tablet with S-Pen support get Galaxy Tab A 8" 2019 with S-pen (model sm-p200 or sm-p205 p205) or Galaxy tab S3 or tab S4 now at a discounted price online.
@@Toyeboy89 I bought a tab 4! $350 off. Thanks. It is awesome. It really helps when you need to work from home .
anne r yeah they have a really nice screen! I enjoy using mine for videos especially and the pop up window feature is extremely useful.
Pity about the USBC port. All my devices use micro USB and I really don't have and wall outlets left, I hope an adaptor comes in the box like with my dad's S8+
Worst statement I've ever seen. Pity about the usb c? Are you actually kidding.
All the should be using type c by now
Does this support stylus,plzz reply
It does not
Which is better tab a 10.5 2018 or 10.1 2019
I personally prefer this one, because it has 4 speakers and bigger screen
2019 first because it's more expensive android 10 better camera and a runs PUBG on Medium-high graphics.
the display is a TFT not an IPS
I have a Galaxy Tab A 6 10.1 and it is a similar price to its price (279.00)
What are the best styluses to use with this tablet?!
This supporting calls also ?
same question
Yes
I stumbled upon mines at the pawn shop I paid 140 not bad for a basic tablet. Wish I could run windows 10 on it
is this a good tablet or not
Does it have dex option
No
Color accuracy is really spot on, very good for all media consumption. When watching Web pages with white backgrounds you can see a beautiful correct white without being blue or warm either. It's a great screen make no mistake.
I agree but i use night light to remove blue, tho this tablet is esier for my eyes than my Samsung A8 2018, idk why on my phone i need to turn on night light but on this device i can use it in complete darknes and my eyes dont fatigue
I feel mad, i have the same tablet and as i buyed it i got multi window funktion but now it is not there its is not in options none where i paid so much for it and i got trolled
Try holding the recent apps button for the split screen to work. You can also check if the split screen toggle button is on or off in Settings > Advanced features > Multi Window.
@@blobbie9583 thx helped alot
I bought tab A 2018 last week itse nice to use
LunarHorizon 98 how is it?
Can this tablet receive phone calls?
Yes
i found this for around 210 euros. And the 2019 tab a 10.1 for 175. Which one do you think is worth it more?
I have this tablet really good
I just bought this tab A 3gb ram i though it would be better than ipad 10.5 2gb ram but testing PUBG last night its NOT smooth and cant handle the game well.
And it doesnt support the HDR in the game settinng i dont know if its from the tablet of the game developers.
You're sure it's not good at online games ❓
Mahmoud Y yeah it's specs are total crap versus iPad 10.5. The iPad is in another league. Ram management on iOS is far superior so 2gb goes a long ways. Games like pubg use CPU and Gpu more important than RAM. This tablet is underpowered for anything expect basics web and email. Samsung should be ashamed and embarrassed for choosing a Snapdragon 450 for a $330 tablet.
Try the galaxy tab a 10.1 2019
It can run fortnite?
Surprised the display is not IPS even though it is HD. A lot of other lower price tablets like RCA already have IPS display. I currently have the Tab 4 2015 version and the battery life for the past year has been declining. I am lucky if I get 2 hours battery life. I don't play games on it. Just the usual FB, email and UA-cam. Also, it is starting to overheat. Ooops, gotta go now...battery running out! Auf Wiedersehen!
So no Netflix? On top of that not s OLED. I might wait for the s4 to go down in price.
Netflix is supported but the resolution is lower than HD when watching Neftlix. If you don't want to pay that much for a S4 you could also check out the very similar Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite 10 which supports Netflix in HD. Or the iPad 2018.

@@MyNextTablet sad.. fot that price and this day of age, a fingerprint sensor should be madotory
does this get one ui??
@Mathys Breton is that pie?
Display is TFT not IPS but you can't see the difference! But even without AMOLED technology, the display of the Galaxy Tab A 10.5 is beautiful to look at. The 10.5 inch screen, which measures 1,920 x 1,200 pixels, shows beautiful colors and has good brightness, but does not quite come close to a good AMOLED panel in terms of contrast and viewing angle stability. But that's a bit too much in the price range. Overall it's still a good display.
Its ips
Why do people think a $300+ 10.5 inch tablet expensive, when they think a $300 smart phones is a budget device? The screen is a lot bigger and so is the battery. Wouldn't it cost more to make tablets than to make phones?
I consider it expensive for what it is and especially compared to similar priced tablets. Also, budget phones for around 300$ have much faster processors, especially the ones from Chinese brands like Xiaomi or Huawei. With that being said, the prices for the Galaxy Tab A 10.5 are dropping already so... it’s not too bad.
@@MyNextTablet is it good for 230€? I'm not considering Apple and the Huawei M5 lite is still 299€.
Yes I think 230 Euros are fine. The only other alternatives are the Lenovo Tab P10 and Lenovo Smart Tab P10 (Identical to Tab P10 but has an Alexa Speaker). With the P10 you also get a fingerprint scanner. However, the internal hardware is identical - the processor is exactly the same. If you don’t care about a fingerprint scanner and the Samsung one is cheaper, I’d go for the cheaper one.
@@MyNextTablet Thanks a lot :)
Because we have a lot of very poor people
I am listening it with the tablet in question
When you compare this tablet to the tab 4 10 plus the snapdragon 625 isn't much faster than the snapdragon 450, maybe this will be my next tablet.

If prices are similar: Get the 10.5-inch for media consumption because of its bigger screen and four good speakers. It's better for Netflix, UA-cam. The 10.1-inch is better for gaming but try to get the 3GB RAM one. It also might get one year longer updates.
