I am beyond my window of an easy return so I am stuck with this computer.
The software is very buggy and there is a lot of lag, even as I type right now. I will be purchasing a fresh copy of Windows 10 just to clean install and remove anything HP related.
I did not like the keyboard and mouse. The keyboard was too small and arch on the mouse was too high. Oh, having to run out to buy a VGA adapter because this computer only accepted an HDMI plug was not fun.
And lastly, this computer does not prompt you to make backup DVDs.
While attempting to repair an older model HP, I realized I did not have any back up for the new computer. When I tried to make a back up, it said the back up partition was already gone. When I called HP to have them send me a back up disc, I was told I had corrupted the partition by inserting a flash drive into the D drive and it wold cost $43 to get a back up disc.
I have since removed the "suspect and offending" flash drive and inserted a blank flash drive and created a backup. Too bad the "trained" HP techs could not offer me that same solution.
I would not recommend this computer. I might have gotten it at a good price, but I had to purchase the adapter, I cannot use the mouse and keyboard and now I am buying a clean copy of Windows 10. I would say I could have spent more in the first place and gotten better.
To say the least, this is my last HP computer.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I love this tablet. This is my second tablet. My first tablet was a Toshiba Excite 10 and I purchased it at least four years ago. It was more expensive (and are the current Toshiba Excite models) than this tablet, and there is no comparison in a side by side screen view with my Toshiba and this Galaxy tablet.
Beautiful screen and it moves smooth as silk.
Also, the battery can really be extended if you lower the screen brightness. For a test, I played seven hours of Netflix and used 50 percent of the battery. However, I then got on Hay Day and well, Hay Day takes all bets off the table because it is a battery sucking game to the fullest extent.
The sound on this tablet is just ok, but that knock is not worth lowering my rating for this tab. I would highly recommend it. It is a great tab for the price. Love it!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I know it has WiFi, but does it also have 4G?

I want to be able to use the tab on 4G besides WiFi. Is this possible with this tablet?
You need to get this tablet through a wireless carrier if you want 4G.
