Samsung Galaxy Tab A8

Budget tablets don’t come any better built than the Samsung Galaxy Tab A8. Throw in a strong set of speakers and decent battery life, and you’re halfway to a top-quality affordable media player. A poor screen and slow charging hold it back from top marks, but it’s a good value option nonetheless.

Las tabletas económicas no están mejor construidas que la Samsung Galaxy Tab A8. Si le añadimos unos altavoces potentes y una duración de la batería decente, estamos a medio camino de un reproductor multimedia asequible de gran calidad. Una pantalla pobre y la lentitud de la carga le impiden alcanzar la máxima puntuación, pero no por ello deja de ser una buena opción.

The Galaxy Tab A8 is an affordable tablet that’s got a decent screen and reliable battery life. However during our tests we found the performance levels are very underwhelming, the camera isn’t great, and it takes a while to charge back up. This makes it a mediocre option in today’s tablet market.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 is a budget tablet that isn’t equipped to wow. With a solid set of budget specifications, on paper it doesn’t offer much more than the competition. But with a sharp 1080p screen, good quad speakers, a comfortable design and decent battery life, it is a tablet that will serve most people well, and that's all it needs to do.
