Tablet · Samsung · 2021
The Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.4 (2020) 128GB is Samsung's 2021 tablet featuring a 8.4 inches, 204.6 cm2 (~80.9% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Exynos 7904 (14 nm) chipset. It comes with a 5000 mAh battery. At AED 449 in the UAE and ₹10,499 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.4 (2020) delivers an 8.4-inch TFT LCD screen with 1920x1200 resolution and 16:10 aspect ratio, offering sharp text and decent color for reading and video, though it lacks a high refresh rate. Its octa-core chipset handles light multitasking and streaming without lag, but struggles with demanding apps. It supports the S Pen (sold separately), making it usable for note-taking or sketching, though without pressure sensitivity. The 5000mAh battery lasts over a full day of moderate use. Its 309g weight feels bulky for one-handed use. In UAE at AED 449, it’s value because it’s one of the few affordable tablets with 128GB storage and LTE. In India at ₹10499, it’s overpriced—competing tablets offer similar screens with better build or faster processors at the same cost. The lack of Android 12+ update limits longevity. Buy only if you need basic media consumption with expandable storage and don’t mind buying the S Pen extra.
