SAMSUNG Galaxy Tab A7 Lite (2021, 32GB, 3GB RAM) 8.7" (WiFi + Cellular) 5100mAh Battery, Android 11, 4G LTE Tablet GSM Unlocked, International Model - SM-T225 (Fast Car Charger Bundle, Gray)

I’ve purchased over 75 of these tablets, and overall, they’ve been great. They do exactly what they’re marketed for. I’ve used them with both T-Mobile and Verizon SIM cards without any issues. Sometimes the software needs to be updated, which can take a while depending on your Wi-Fi, but that’s manageable. The only thing I’m not a big fan of is the wall plugs and, occasionally, the cigarette lighter adapters — they’re just okay. Other than that, the tablets have been very reliable. I use them for my transportation company to communicate with drivers, and they’ve held up well. My drivers have been using them for about a year and a half with no issues, five days a week for at least 8 hours a day (sometimes more).The size is good — not too big, which helps reduce distractions for drivers. Battery life is solid, even with daily use. The tablets stay mounted in the vehicles, so they’re exposed to heat and sunlight, but they’ve still performed well. The cost is decent — not the cheapest, but affordable enough to save money where I can. Overall, I’m satisfied with the purchase.

I wanted this tablet mainly for the phone functionality. Read what the others have said .......... do not update to Android 12. I fou do you will lose phone functionality. Turn off updated in developer mode and turn off auto updates in google play store settings. Do this before reinserting your SIM. I amusing a small local cell company sim --- I also tried my Tmobile SIM and it works perfectly. I love Phablets --- it just never really caught on in the states. update -- Purchased another tablet -- the A9+ and was was going t update this one to sell.I updated and assumed I'd lose clal functionality and I did not --I guess because it is the international version. It is slower and older fo rme as a tablet --works just fine as a phone.

Muy buena

Replaced my broken tablet . Still having issues transferring data from old tablet to new tablet

Yes - but you need to go through this process which I learned from other reviewers. This particular SM-T225 model runs on Android 11 originally out of the box. The first time you open the phablet (because it is a genuine phone and tablet in one), ensure you don't insert your sim card or connect it to a wifi yet. Be patient and skip all setup processes and go straight to TURN OFF automatic update under developer options and click don't auto-update apps under network preferences in your Google Play Store account. Only after doing those two very important steps you can insert your active sim card and/or connect to wifi. Please be aware that with this particular model, once you forgot to turn off all of the apps/network updates, it will lose all of the phone and text and mobile data functions once it auto-updates to Android 12! I ignored the previous advice from other reviewers then I proved it myself that it turns into a wifi only tablet after updating to Android 12 so I had to return it and buy a new one. Again, yes, in my own experience, I never had to call my AT&T helpline (please don't call them or they will deactivate your sim card asap!), and I just transferred my active (and latest 2022) sim card. And there it is, my Galaxy Tab A7 Lite that runs on AT&T as my 8.7-inch phone, and tablet, with call, text, and mobile data functions under Android 11 - and kept it there for the past seven months and I never had to buy a super expensive Galaxy Folds out there. When the Android 12 pops up to remind me it's time for an update - I just ignore it and click later - always because I want to keep it as a phablet. For me, there's no need to update to Android 12 at all if I will lose its original smartphone functions. And this awesome fast-charging 8.7-inch screen phablet is way better to use than those under 7-inch Android phones if you want a bigger screen with smartphone capabilities at the same time. Yes, there is an earpiece but you can use the wired earphones to the superb 3.5 mm ear jack slot for privacy when making or taking calls. Hope this will help everyone out there - this phablet is highly recommended if you're tight on a budget!

It's not a great tablet. It runs a little slow. The display is not as sharp as I had hoped, and frankly having the option of installing a sim card seems a little silly with a tablet. I will look at Lenovo if I buy another.

I'm not a TV person and have limited space in a one-room apartment. This tablet gives me lots of opportunities for entertainment and photos, with out taking up much space.

Good tablet

En el colegio esa pidieron , y fue excelente compra! Ideal para estudiantes de tablet

La uso para leer ebooks lo cual me parece mejor dispositivo que los readers tradicionales. Con el chip 4g puedo acceder a mis asuntos de trabajo sin sacar el teléfono, incluso navega bien los mapas de carretera. La pantalla es buena, pero considera que es un dispositivo de gama media así que verás cierto lag casi imperceptible. Puedo vivir con eso.

Ótimo produto, e chegou rápido, parabéns
