## Questions & Answers

**Q: This model says it is an international model and doesn't have a US warranty. What exactly does this mean?**
A: Samsung USA will not fix it. Which means any & all repairs are at your cost.

**Q: It works with stylus pen?**
A: We have used a stylus pen on it.

**Q: Can you use your personal hotspot?**
A: I would assume you can connect this device to a personal hotspot since it can be connected to a home network. You should be able to connect most any device to a hotspot that can be connected to a home internet network. 

If you are asking if the tablet can be used as a hotspot, you cannot. This tablet doesn’t have cell service, therefore it can’t provide an internet connection to your other devices. 

Hopefully this answer is more helpful than some of the previous answers you’ve received.

**Q: Does this have google play store to download google apps?**
A: Yes! That's why we choose the Galaxy over the Kindle. We can use our Google apps!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Slower Than Expected
*by G***E on August 14, 2022*

I knew this was a 2019 budget tablet when I bought it so I really can't complain. I suppose I am more accustomed to sensitivity and response of my more-modern Samsung phone. This tablet screen is not as sensitive as I am accustomed to. I find myself having to press the icons or links considerably harder than on my phone - sometimes 2 or 3 times. This occurs without a screen protector. There is also a noticeable lag afterward which was evident right-out-of-the-box with no background programs running. The screen and colors are bright. The sound is amazing. The price is right but if you can afford a better model, buy it. This tablet is OK for folks like me who are on a tight budget. I only bought to watch Netflix and Prime Video when traveling.
