Samsung launches budget Galaxy Tab A tablets in Wi-Fi and LTE variants with Android 7.1 on-board and larger battery

Galaxy-Tab-A 2018

Samsung has released an updated Galaxy Tab A 8.0-inch variant in the United States. This is the 2017 variant of the tab and features slightly better hardware than last year.

The Galaxy Tab A 8.0 has an 8-inch display with a resolution of 1280 x 800 and 480 nits of brightness. It’s not the best display on a tablet, but then this tablet isn’t going to be very expensive either. At best, this is a budget device that can be used for media consumption and some gaming.

There’s a quad-core Snapdragon 425 processor inside, coupled with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. In the camera department, there’s an 8MP sensor at the back, and a 5MP unit at the front. All of this is backed by a 5000 mAh battery.
