Yet another ASDA tablet deal!

Down from £199 - I'm sure would make a great Christmas present.

Price changed today in ASDA Living Durham but now sold out. Will be national as clearing out stock.

This tablet is awful due to the low specs. Nexus 9 should be great but it doesn't have enough RAM. Avoid both of them.

Cheaper but smaller; Nexus 7 2013 is still excellent. Lg v500 is 8.3" but rare. Both below £100.

If you want 10" I'd be looking towards Lenovo.

So sold out when you posted the deal in the store you work in ... and why 'must' it be national, Asda deals are often NOT national

How do these compare generally with say the Nexus 9?

vassy4u to zermattbusby

22 Oct 16 1 #9

Nexus 9 would be my preference. Quick updates. Only drawback would be to watcg for lightbleed.

Thanks vass
Mum has the N9 cracking device
Thinking of buying the Tab A and selling my N7 and iPad 4

vassy4u to zermattbusby

22 Oct 16 1 #12

comparing to n7 and ipad 4 i would say Tab 4 would be better. The price is not much either.

I've got a LG Gpad 8.3 from a Tesco HUKD offer about 3 years ago. Would I notice an improvement with this tablet.
I thinks its specs were (Quad Core 1.7GHz Processor, 2GB RAM, 16GB eMMC, WLAN, BT, 2x Camera, Android 4.2.2)

neilanderton1 to gordo1964

22 Oct 16 1 #15

Your LG has better specs.

Sprograt to gordo1964

22 Oct 16 2 #29

Keep the LG GPad I have one and it's a lot quicker than a friend's Tab A.

22 Oct 16 #26

ha ha, I'm not moaning, just stating a fact and trying to let people know that it might not be available in their local Asda, so don't all rush out at once!

Mikey91

22 Oct 16 #27

I admit, certain stores don't seem to get some price reductions but when it's a head office price reduction he majority of stores will get the reduction.

I'll add it to my 'inb4' post on my next deal :stuck_out_tongue:

Edit: Silly me, I already have :smile:

Bought last one in Lancaster.

Good find. Was originally going to spend £219 on the tab A 10.1

Happy to downgrade on specs for half the price nearly. Well, considering it's for an 8 year old anyway :wink:

What's the verdict on the tablet for those who bought it?

somersetpaul to Mikey91

24 Oct 16 1 #40

Excellent, way better than the Tab E winging its way back to John Lewis. Screen is brighter and colours better. More responsive. Upgrades to latest Android version. Twin speakers. Bigger but lighter. Much like an ipad Air, but screen not as sharp on close examination. Well worth £119.

Thanks for this, had them in Asda Living in Broughton (North Wales), was priced as £199 but noticed they'd accidentally stuck the £119 sticker on Tab 4 slot, but looking at barcodes realised it was the 9.7 inch Tab A, picked one up to replace my dad's iPad 1!

Thanks for this. Just bought one at Cribbs Bristol. Price on shelf £199, but stock behind counter £119. Three still left at lunchtime. Heat added.

Glad to hear it :smiley: Would have been tempted if I didn't already have a Pixel C.

JohnOFarrell

24 Oct 16 #42

I agree, Tab A screen not quite as good as other tablets (albeit more expensive ones) which was an issue when it was selling for £200 but at £120 is definitely worth it.
I also have a Pixel C, great tablet, cannot recommend it enough!

How much is the 8gb version ???
And any updates on this for £78 at o2??

I think the tab e is better by the way or is it not ???

Mikey91 to HJboss

25 Oct 16 #45

Tab E is the model down from this

somersetpaul to HJboss

25 Oct 16 #46

The specs are similar but the Tab A is much better overall - just sent my Tab E back after making a side by side comparison.

Just bought one of these at Havant Asda, not sure how good it is as it's a Christmas pressie!

The UK Samsung Galaxy Tab A 9.7 is not a great product.

Budget Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 SoC
TFT screen (not IPS or OLED)
1024x768 resolution (very bad for a 10" tablet)
Only 1GB of DRAM (very very bad for Chrome and Facebook Messenger)
