Great small footprint unit
on January 20, 2014

I use it for:Document printing
Verified Purchase:Yes
There's lot to like about the 610. Very small footprint, quality prints, PictBridge, Airprint, WIFI and USB connectivity, and solid build quality. I uses 5 ink tanks (photo and pigment black), so throughput cost should be reasonable. As with many Epsons, it also comes with a CD print tray.
My Best Buy number: 0091651419
My Best Buy number: 0091651419
What's great about it: Small, good build quality
What's not so great: Have to manually extend the catch tray when you send a print
I would recommend this to a friend!

Watch movies or check emails with this Samsung Galaxy Tab A. It has a 10-inch screen for easy viewing, and the octa-core processor keeps up with multitasking or streaming. This Samsung Galaxy Tab A has a battery life of up to 13 hours on one charge for convenient portability and long-lasting use.

There's a lot good about this tablet. It has a lot for the price such as a beautiful high-rez screen, a fast processor, really good battery life, and it comes with Android 6 Marshmallow (more about that).
A minor irritation is that the hardware navigation buttons are not illuminated. In a low light situation, you have to just know where they are.
The biggest weakness is that it only comes with 16 GB of internal memory. It does support SD cards up to 200 GB. However, I found that Samsung has chosen to NOT support adopted memory in their version of Marshmallow. This is true for all Sammy devices. This means you don't have the option of expanding that paltry 16 GB ... half of which is used by the system and Samsung's baked in apps and overlay.
The bottom line is that this is a fine home or kid's tablet, but you shouldn't confuse it with a real working tablet. Perhaps they just didn't want to steal too much thunder from their $400-500 offerings.
I'd almost give this 4 stars and would recommend it with the limitations mentioned.

Yes, you can move some apps to the SD card. That ability has been around for a while, but it's not the same thing as Android 6 adopted memory. It's slower, some apps can be moved but they won't work exactly right ... especially after a reboot. Many still keep a lot of data and cache in internal memory. It's a work around.

Adopted memory
August 11, 2016
Navigator is correct that slow memory can slow the system when using external memory as an extension of internal memory. That's why Android 6 (not Samsung's version) gives you the choice of using the SD card as adopted or portable memory, AND it checks the card's speed and warns if it's too slow to work well. This slow down also happens when moving apps to the card as described by other users.
As I said in my review, this is still a very good tablet. It's probably the best out there for the money. It just didn't meet my needs.

HP OMEN Gaming Laptop: A thin and light premium gaming experience in an elevated design so you can play everyday. With an AMD Ryzen 7 processor, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti graphics and cooled by OmenTempest Cooling, it makes you think how it all fits into such a tiny little package."
 

Can I get this version in shadow black? The way i see it, only the intel laptops are shadow black. Is that the way it is? Intel gets black and AMD gets silver? Also you dont have any i5 versions. will that be available in the in a few days.

I think the AMD units are only in silver. However, it's really a dark grey.

Is the battery user replaceable like in the 650VA?

No. At the price, I think this is intended to be a disposable item.

Get peace and quiet anywhere with these Sony truly wireless noise-cancelling earbuds. An advanced HD noise-cancelling processor blocks distracting background noise so you can focus in noisy environments, and Bluetooth connectivity ensures easy use with smartphones and other devices. These Sony truly wireless noise-cancelling earbuds include a convenient charging case that offers up to 24 hours of use per charge.
 

Do these earbuds have a low minimum volume threshold? Some Bluetooth headsets and earbuds I own start out at close to a medium volume. Examples of a low volume threshold: The Apple Airpods and the Samsung Galaxy Buds.

I have not noticed any minimum. The dynamic range seems very good.

How good is the motion detection really? I have purchased several cams and the motion detection is awful. Thanks
