I blame Samsung's resource hogging Touchwiz interface myself :wink: I very rarely notice any lag with this Alba tablet, It's great for the money. My mum also has one and we both use ours with Nova Launcher plus the fact that it came with no bloatware, Its really quite a snappy tablet.

Spec wise the CPU and RAM are the same as the Amazon Fire 7. However, this offers 16 GB storage and the bigger screen

I had a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 before and that only had 1GB RAM and was a bit laggy...admittedly it was only a dual core CPU

Good deal I think. We have a Samsung galaxy tab 3 and our youngest son uses it, it is rubbish, looking for a replacement for him.

I know my other 2 have Asus tablets and they are pretty good but the Samsung galaxy one lags like hell, he gets really frustrated with it.

Anyone know how this would compare to a galaxy tab2 as mine is getting old and I could possibly trade it in and but this?
