Third-party reviews

What customers like about Samsung Galaxy Tab E 8.0 SM-T375 LTE (5GB + 16GB)

  • Convenient 8-inch size and lightweight design make it highly portable for travel and reading
  • User-friendly and intuitive interface, making it suitable for beginners, children, or elderly users
  • Bright display with wide viewing angles and realistic color reproduction
  • Includes a microSD card slot for expandable storage up to 128GB
  • Reliable 4G LTE connectivity for internet access on the go
  • Split-screen multitasking feature is a helpful time-saver for basic productivity

What customers don't like about Samsung Galaxy Tab E 8.0 SM-T375 LTE (5GB + 16GB)

  • Battery life is frequently criticized as being poor or draining quickly during use
  • Performance is considered sluggish or 'slow' by modern standards, particularly when multitasking or running demanding apps
  • Camera quality is generally described as poor, producing blurry or noisy images
  • Low screen resolution (1280 x 800) results in visible pixelation and jagged text
  • Limited internal storage (8GB or 16GB depending on variant) fills up quickly with system files and apps
  • Single rear-firing speaker provides mediocre sound quality that is easily muffled

Verdict

The Samsung Galaxy Tab E 8.0 (SM-T375) is a budget-friendly 8-inch tablet featuring a 1280 x 800 WXGA TFT display and powered by a 1.3GHz quad-core Snapdragon 410 processor. It comes equipped with 1.5GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage, which is expandable up to 128GB or more via a microSD card, and includes 4G LTE connectivity for on-the-go access. Main pros include its long-lasting 5,000mAh battery that supports over 12 hours of video playback, a portable lightweight design weighing approximately 360g, and integrated GPS for navigation. However, it suffers from dated performance due to the older chipset and limited RAM, a relatively low-resolution screen with grainy text, and underwhelming 5MP rear and 2MP front cameras that often produce noisy images.
