    I just spoke to Samsung and their "expert" said all tablets are 10" or bigger. she suggested a phone when I asked about an 8-9 inch tablet. Is that true? I hear of a Tab A11 but haven't seen one

    Question 8" Tablet for reading

    Ok, I settled on a Galaxy Tab A9 (2023 I think). And now, I can't find one! I keep hearing about a Tab A11 9" tablet, but can't find one of those either. So anyone know where there are Tab A9s still? I'm guessing they're discontinued. I do see A9 "International Edition". Does anyone have...

    Question 8" Tablet for reading

    I'm using a Samsung Galaxy Tab A 2019 version. It's pretty slow (geek ench single core score around 150, multicore around 500). I really like this size, very handy, but don't see many others anymore. This size. I mostly just check news, sites like this. etc. I don't watch movies or even many...

    Since I don't need Sprint anymore, what's the easiest way to update As a non-LTE tablet? That's assuming the hardware can support a more modern version.

    Browser with auto word wrap

    I'm most familiar with Firefox and have several add ONs installed on the PC version. I only switched to Opera on Android because I really like the reader mode and text wrap that I can't find anywhere else. Unfortunately Opera for PC does not do reader mode or word wrap. If it did I'd likely...

    Reasonably fast 8" tablet

    I don't use a tablet much. I do email, check blogs, read news, listen to music. Easy, right? I have three tablets. My oldest is a 2013 Google tablet. So outdated its barely functional. Not an option. But strangely the fastest of the bunch. Next is an Amazon Fire 8". Only 2 years old or so...
