Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 - User Reviews

  • i cant update new software any support

  • you can open it with a knife

  • How do you open the back cover? It's a sealed unit

  • open the back cover and you will see the battery clip in the top middle take it out and put it back it will come right i had the same problem but now my tablet is working fine

  • Hey.I have this tablet for a few years now.Everything was fine until it started to turn off in random moments.Battery was 60% and after turning my tablet on again,battery was 5%.I have no idea what is a problem.That is not main problem because I can get over it.But,the main problem is that my tablet again turned off and i can not turn it on again.I left it to charge to 100% so it charged.But i can not turn it.I opened the back i cleaned dust a little bit,but nothing is happening.I will be very grateful if someone respond me,because i really want to fix this.Thanks a lot.

  • What are the chances I also have this and play Real Racing 3

  • The Samsung Galaxy Tab is a very solid tablet. Its highlights are a great battery life, recent software, and an overall good performance. While the display is good overall, it offers an HD resolution only and is not laminated. A couple of direct competitors offer very similar hardware at a cheaper price.

  • had it for four years now(2018) still working fine .I use it for yt skype surfing and watch movies. the wifi on it is amazing i get singnal were my other device's in the house can't.

  • ANYONE KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE T.535 MODEL AND THE T535?I have the T535 and was curious as they both have same specs,great tablet I have 4g connectivity so it so handy.

  • Yes, you are partially right, since there is another reason, I charged it in 1.5 ma original Sony charger, it took around 2 days to charge, when I charged it by the 2.1 original Samsung charger it took around 5 hours only which is ok..

  • This tablet is upgradeable to Android 5.0.2 (via OTA, and there are ROMs available in sammobile)

  • The reason for the long charging time is just that it is a big battery 6800Mah the new iPhone is way less and for a higher price...so its normal to expect a long wait

  • I cannot receive e-mails. Message: memory not sufficient. What can I do?

  • Can anybody tell me how many charging port is thème on my SM-T530NU thanks

  • You can change battery and there are YouTube videos showing you how to do it. I changed my battery with no issues.

  • Pros: A very stable viewing angle despite it being a TFT Display. Large 10 inch screen size allows me to easily manoeuvre around apps and to even type with ease. This tablet runs Real Racing 3 without any problems. Was already updated to Lollipop 5.0.2. Speakers on both sides of the tablet, gives a better sound quality than those with one speaker. Despite having a low clocked quad core A7 CPU, the tablet runs really smooth overall. Cons: Battery does drain too fast, especially when large apps continue to run in the background, (this from experience) Charging at times take too long. At times the tablet would overheat and forced close some apps. Despite handling Real Racing 3, other games like Asphalt 8 and Nova 3 run with lags. Tablet doesn't allow certain apps, pictures or videos to be saved on the SD (memory) card. Cameras are not the best. Final thought: Not the greatest but still the best tablet that i owned. Run things smoothly, is not a gaming tablet but i like how it handles Real Racing 3, helps me with my schoolwork and great for watching shows and movies when i installed Kodi and Mobdro on it.

  • Virus doesnot affect android or for matter of fact any os based on linux like ios so no need to delete all data maybe their's a bug in the app which freezes the tab

  • The tab 4 has got the update of 5.0.2 lollipop and you should update it

  • Looking down at the top of the tablet to the right of the volume button (longest button on the top of the tablet) use your finger nail or flat head precision screwdriver to flip open the slot cover for the micro sd card slot. Slide in the card and close up.

  • i think..last month we got a update..after that battery problems came.

  • I cannot find memory card slot and cannot use my memory card plase help me as soon as.

  • Why is the battery not interchangable....I've got the same problem...

  • i start use it on 12-2014, my tablet now got battery problem... i need to let them charging.. i cannot bring it everywhere....

  • one of the best tablets its still running on 4.4.2 now

  • Yes you can; I put a 128 gb card and it took it. However I backed it down to a 64 gb card and placed the 128 in my Samsung note 3 and it worked fine. May try the new 200 gb card in the phone and the put the 128 back in the Tab 4.

  • It is an amazing tablet, very durable, lasted me 2 years and running, only wish it could have calling capabilites

  • is it possible to upgrade my galaxy tab 4 sm-T530 Android version from lollipop to marshmallow??????????

  • My galaxy tab 4 gives me a problem when I need to download applications. I've been trying to resolve this but it keeps on displaying " maximum number of tabs reached. My concern is that I'm unable to delete these tabs as I don't know where to get them in my phone. Please help

  • Samsung tab 4 10.1 inch gives message " sd card inserted " or " sd card removed unexpectedly " whenever tab is switched on from sleep mode. The battery also drains very very fast only if sd card is inserted.

  • Samsung tab 4 10.1 inch gives message " sd card inserted " or " sd card removed unexpectedly " whenever tab is switched on from sleep mode. The battery also drains very very fast only if sd card is inserted.

  • My tablet works fine the micro SD card slot also works I would send the tablet back to have it repaired if your having issues with the SD slot for extra memory everything should work on a new tablet that's what the warranty is for

  • My tab 4 10.1 micro sd slot works.

  • BATTERY ISSUES: How I alleviate battery drain issues is to charge unit to 100% charge. Then connect to a good quality external charge battery or supplied charger; Even on highest brightness the battery does not drain. You must start with 100% charge or reduce brightness down to about 1/2 for this to work. I've owned my tab about 2 yrs. with only one issue when due to an upgrade the screen mirroring feature got whacked but it was fixed. Love this thing very satisfied!

  • Yep! You can insert a sim card or micro sd into the microsd slot found at the top.

  • Could anyone tell me If it's possible to put a SD Card for extra storage into a Samsung Tab4,10.1 none cellular tablet.

  • Does anyone have the same problem? My Google Play Movies and TV app was working fine until suddenly all the movies i downloaded for offline watching cannot be opened or viewed for more than 15seconds. The app then freezes and shuts down the tablet. I've tried uninstalling and re installing app. As well as upgrading the software but its still doing the same thing. VLC and Chrome store does not support this tablet for me to play movies via alternative apps. Please help. Have i contracted a virus and I need to re wipe the system?

  • 1. Download ES File Explorer from the Playstore. 2. Then, open the program. 3. Follow the tutorial prompts to the program. 4. Look for the "Search" icon on the bottom of the Main Screen of ES File Manager. 5. Type the name of the file into the Search Box and press Enter. 6. If you have an External SD Card in the Tablet, make sure you have the correct memory selected by pressing Windows (bottom right)>extSdCard>search icon

  • I lost a file. I don't know what directory it is in. how do I find it?

  • I lost a file. I don't know what directory it is in. How do I find it?

  • You can see the pixels on this thing from orbit ...

  • Yeah if anyone can't get out from kids mode it means you have locked at this app so remind the password which you entered in the lock option

  • What you mean by this

  • Yes the indeed takes long .. I'm enjoying having it

  • this tablet is ok overall,this is a mid level device but still is working fine in this category,with a 6800 mAh battery

  • I usually see about 4-5 hrs on it playing games....

  • I would also like to ask if the battery life is good? Thanks

  • Hi Guys! I would like to ask if this tablet works good? Thanks!

  • Kevin, the reason u are seeing 1gb of ram is because the tablet you have seen at Walmart is either galaxy tab 3 10.1 or galaxy tab 2 10.1. I hope that clears things up.

  • Hi, i looked thisar wallmart and it says it has Android 4.2 and 1gb ram, does anyone know why? I'm from mexico

  • I opened Kids Store looking for a game for granddaughter and now I can't get out of it. Anyone have any ideas?

  • samsung s4 active sumberged in a bucket of water for i sec ...completely wasted (it was all sealed up correctly ) samsung distributor want even bother fixing it withn paid expenses for parts and work from my side because it is bought in another region...no samsung again ever (loayal customer for the past 10 years in almost everything from household aplliances to tv home cinemas ac's etc

  • the device can do all you have posted you cannot do, all you have to do it contacting Samsung support and they will explain how to.

  • The camera isn't sharp

  • Great difficulty finding compatable printer for my tab 4 10.1. Any suggestions please.

  • If you meant tab 4 10.1 inch, yes there is version with sim card slot.

  • Are there cellular TAB 4 '10.7'

  • Is it safe to upgrade to lollipop 5.0.2, cause as i see some say that when they updated they started having major and faster drain of battery. So should i wait for fix from samsung or those cases of battery drain are few and because of faulty battery.

  • So is it worthy installing lollipop update on this tablet? Cause i see many people complaining about faster battery drain or other problems after the update to lollipop 5.0.2?

  • Is Lollipop 5.0 available for galaxy tab 4 sm-t537a?

  • @TC There IS wifi, you can download & use all the usual apps, ie, Facebook, yahoo & Gmail, viber, Skype etc etc.

  • updated to lollipop 5.0.2 everything works well

  • No wifi access - no internet - no facebook - that`s the way it is!!!

  • Hi, to install WhatsApp on tablets go to PlayStore and search for "Tutorial:WatApp for Any Tablet" Write it exactly like in apostrophes in the search box. Install this App (it`s not an app, it`s a video!) which describes what you have to do to get whatsapp running on a non cellular connectivity able tablet!

  • how can better ? samsung tab4 10.1 wifi ? and lg g pad 10.1 ? please suggest me? plz please, iam waiting for your comments on this brands

  • Is there any Tab 4 10.1 with a provision cor SIM? What's the nearest model after this tab?

  • since you dont have sim slot in this tab what you can do if you have internet on your phone make it a HOT SPOT and connect your tab with mobile internet and can use internet anywhere :)

  • *I have Galaxy Tab 4 10.1" Same as the one in the article* It is my first Android device. I am not an expert user. I am a competent Linux user though [if that is any help, and I think it is]... That said, I think if you want to store data as a default, to the external drive [SSD] you need to 'root' the device and then change some stuff, uh, settings in system. You have to do weird multiple finger button pressing, follow instructions carefully [that you have double checked]. Read those instructions all again, and make sure there are others that agree with the method you decide to use. I have read that rooting an Android can 'brick' it... I have read that it is the user who screwed up, that if it is done correctly, rooting it will not 'brick' it. I rooted mine. I didn't make terrible mistakes. Now, I can store my data to the ENCRYPTED SSD. Good luck [or make sure you do not need luck, just do it correctly and be careful, Man!]

  • Internet without SIM, only wireles from another router.

  • You must buy a OTG A+ Cable . This cable conect tablet to 3G modem . This tablet does't have slot for SIM.

  • how do I use de galaxy tab 4 without SIM,am in Ghana

  • A lot of people say things on this platform that are untrue. Please lets all be serious!

  • it can be unlock to work with digicel

  • how do I use the the phone part of it. I place a phone chip and its asking for sim network unlock pin. I am in Jamaica and its a digicel network

  • Laptop is best for watching movies and surfing net if u want a better battery life and dont mind holding ur hand for 2 hrs straight go with tablet

  • how do i set my sd card as a default storage for the downloaded apps from google play store?

  • I couldn't find one with wifi????

  • The file �nive.avi� has one or more properties outside of device limits. If possible, use a media program that can convert the File before copying it. If you copy the file now, it will be stored on the Device, but may not be presented in the device user interface. Do you wish to copy the file to the device anyway ? { Why is this ? }

  • will from my experience the laptop is a great devise for everything, but if you are looking for something you can hold with one hand watch everywhere and you can move it anytime you want and it can last up to 10 hours I would suggest a tablet. I cant live without one anymore , and I have two if one of them went down I use the other.

  • I am cofused b/w tablet and laptop.. Which one should I buy? I have to just watch movies,surf net etc... Hey guys please answer...

  • does tab 4 7" has video calling?

  • I think most peoples concerns are pretty valid. One would expect the Tab 4 to something impressive but the price should give it away. I admit I glossed over the specs, so my fault. But I am happy with it. It's smooth and the weight is good. My problem is the GPS. - Where the hell is it? How do ya turn it on. Im amazed that no one has mentioned it. What am I missing?

  • No. There is no mobile functionality. So no sim card slot.

  • Owner. Runs gta vice city (ps3 controller) very well. Low dpi not noticeable during usage. Good mid range tablets, no need to spend more. I would recommend this tablet

  • Personally I think its a good device but I think the issue of the device not having any cellular networks it's a big problem for me.

  • Nice screen with bright colours, the ppi may be low but hardly noticeable on large screen, very happy with the purchase. I can even use this without my glasses.

  • I have watched reviews and it I is supposed to have a built in TV remote but mine doesn't

  • Guys, stop making fun about this tablet, I ACTUALLY HAVE THE DEVICE. even if it doesn't have light sensors or anything else, it rarely lags and is a great battery if u like browsing, watching, google plus, and others. It's fast and looks and acts like a high end tablet even though it's not. And at this price, this is actually the best tablet u can buy instead of a $500 tablet, u can get a $250 to $350 tablet with decent specs!

  • tab 3 is faster in benchmarks then tab 4

  • it is not first.. tab pro and tab s which are more expensive also have no gorilla glass..

  • yaeh have no gorilla glass, background light and light sensor, but better chipset and more ram.. it is cheaper than tab 3 10 wifi about 20%.. so it is..

  • Is my Samsung Galaxy Tab4 10.1 SM-T53000 capable of getting mobile data? I cannot find the sim card slot. Or based on some YouTube videos it is one slot?

  • Specs mention vibration function. Can't seem to find it on mine, can anyone confirm it does have vibra?

  • Without light sensor, without scratch resistant glass, without illuminated keys. Previous galaxy tabs were much better.

  • Front keys backlight does not exist, glass is not scratch resistant, no light sensor.

  • What a dissapointment. My 2 and half years old Galaxy tab 2 was much better. Tab 4 is without light sensor, without scratch resistant glass, back and menu keys do not light up, battery on tab 2 is also better. Total waste of money. And guess what, it is a new model. Unbelievable!!!!!

  • Do not buy this tablet. This is the first galaxy tab without scratchproof glass. Shame on you Samsung.

  • go to the play store, get a smart TV app (ASmart Remote IR is recommended ). In your case for controlling the tv, just simply go to add a new device, then click on the tv, choose your brand and then you can control it from your tablet

  • Morning I want to know how to use the video camera of my Samsung galaxy tab4

  • can you please your hands on experience with tab ????

  • Is it possible to connect this tablet to TV, and if is answer yes, how?

  • no, its not normal, though it takes time to charge butbattery lasts longer than u mentioned. i had the same problem when my kids install a game but after uninstalling and factory reset or restore that problem gone. i suggest to do fact reset and fully charge upto 100%, ihope this will work. Good luck

  • Hey I just bought this tab the full charge only last me 2.5 hours and it takes 6 hours to full charge is the normal

  • You can sideboard the Adobe flash player apk and use a browser like dolphin

  • I purchased this tab 4 two weeks ago but not really impressed already have problems with the screen and flash player is not compatible with it. The purpose of me choosing to buy it was to be able to browse Internet, download apps and watch rte player tv shows and I can't! The only positive thing is the battery life is good but that's probably cos I don't use it often!

  • awesome best available tab at this price in the market, highly recommended i hv been using for a month no problem or issues at all. Previously i used window tablet much faster and reliable. Go for it take my words you will be glad.

  • How can this tablet do wifi hotspot when its a WIFI ONLY tablet? No device (to my knowledge) can send and receive wifi at the same time.

  • This is definitely an awesome device for it's price. Got it a week now, i'm very satisfied. Highly recommended for everyday use (mail, web, movies, social networking, games and notes). In case you need better performance, just get a laptop, although i wouldn't recommend a laptop with a price that low. Cheers

  • Had this now for a week, replacing a xoom2. It's pretty good for base model, not a 2k res. but really good. It does what U ask it to. No complaints, no lagging so far. If U want to read, listen, watch, and b on online, gr8. Especially for this price.

  • Which is much expensive

  • I dont understand u all.I think that nobody of you will use only tablet.I think that everyone uses a smartphone too with much better camera.For me this camera is good and i think other specs are good.

  • I beg to differ. It has no camera flash and only a 3MP main camera. The screen resolution is shockingly low (lower than iPad) at 149ppi. Apart from upping the processor to quad core and adding abit more RAM, its in essence, exactly the same as Tab 3 (which also now has KitKat 4.4.x). Complete waste of money, if you ask me. You'd be alot better off getting a Nexus 10.

  • I already acquired this tablet and I am very happy about it, all pros, no contra stuff.

  • I already acquired this tablet and I am very happy about it, all pros, no contra stuff.

  • IPS panel s a an LG patent

  • What is the date of release of tab 4 here in philippines?

  • Why Samsung is not using IPS screens?

  • The resolution is painfully low for something that is going to be mostly showing text to students. Other than that it looks good.

  • Not a real upgrade but still...this is not bad at all....infact it has only 2 big changes here over the previous mile up. 1- It has quad core processor while all the previous tab series tablets have dual core. 2- Samsung has increase its Ram, it has 1.5 gig of Ram over the only 1 gig Ram of tab 3. 10 incher. But ...if samsung put there 5mp or 8mp rear + 2 mp front camera, at least 2 gb Ram & snapdragon or intel atom chipset, & some sensors like compass, gyro, etc... So I think it will be the best tablet in this range.
