  • I didn't know that Android tablets were still a "thing" as Apple's long since won the tablet "war" with the far superior iPad.
  • Cuz u can install all kinds of apps outside of the app store? And if you've already invested in the Android ecosystem, no point in rebuying the apps for the iPad. Plus there's obviously a market if companies are still making it... they aint in the biz of losing money... lol u don't need to win a "war" to make money.
  • Why do Apple Sheeple ALWAYS thing boring is better?
  • Well, update prevents apps from getting files from file system. Samsung online support was not useful. In the end, support person said that I'd have to mail my tablet in for repairs! THIS IS A SOFTWARE PROBLEM. Certainly, I'm not the only person with this problem.
