I found this, I’m wanting to get a pixel tablet in about a week or so. Title just got me wondering a bit, though it’s probably just a little bit sensationalized

    The problem with the Galaxy Tab A series is that Samsung cheaps out on their SOCs, to the point where they’re unusably slow for even simple web browsing and watching YouTube.

    The average person buys one because they’re cheap, then thinks all Android tablets suck because of how awful Samsung’s A series tablets have been for years and goes and buys an iPad.

      I can definitely confirm that. My grandma owns a Galaxy tab A7 lite and it is so slow. And I can’t get it to go any faster no matter what I do. I have no idea how she tolerates that thing, though she does mainly use it just for Facebook, as well as a few solitaire games, including one that hasn’t been updated since like 2017.
