Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 Pro Reviews

With an accessible price of $199, the Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 would have made for an excellent purchase if its performance didn't leave so much to be desired. It would be a far, wide stretch to disregard the tab as unusable, but it fails to deliver the buttery-smooth performance users expect from a 2014 Samsung device. Although the Tab 4 7.0 is remarkably well built, comfortable to hold, and with a sublime user interface, it simply isn't as seamless and pleasant to use like its biggest competitor, the Nexus 7 (2013). Additionally, for just $30 more, the Kindle Fire HDX offers much better performance, a high-resolution display, but trades Google's familiar services for those of Amazon's. However, the Tab 4 is a worthy upgrade from last year's Galaxy Tab 3 in each aspect. If general sluggishness and mediocre gaming performance aren't deal-breakers for you, this 7-inch tab is great in all other regards. And who knows, perhaps Samsung will deliver an update to make it perform more admirably. After all, the Snapdragon 400 with 1.5GB of RAM should pack enough power to turn any well-optimized 7-inch tablet into a smooth ride.
