The Galaxy Tab A specs

Spec-wise, this Samsung‘s latest Tab A sports a 1.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU, 1.5GB of RAM, and 16GB of internal storage, with a microSD card slot that’s expandable up to 128GB. However, the Galaxy Tab A battery can be a good selling point with a capacity 4,200 mAH, allowing many hours to run apps.

Like other Samsung‘s standard budget tablets, this device has a plastic-laden body, which is not so impressive in terms of design. However, despite the not-premium look, the tablet is comfortable to hold as it is thin, light and compact in size.
