I was a bit skeptical about this tablet but I’m really liking it so far! With its Dual Core Processor it is very snappy and loads web pages really quickly! I also really like how it has “Chrome” as a browser ♥ I use Chrome on my laptop so it’s nice that I can just sync all my bookmarks and such to my tablet.
Another thing that I really enjoy is how I can view web pages in desktop view, without any problems or having to click a “desktop view” button; And that I can play videos right on the webpage without having to transfer/open the video onto the “YouTube” App. Sometimes that’s such a hassle lol. (It’s like having a laptop in your hands.)
Lastly, I really like about it is the battery life :) I’ve gone all day playing games on it and checking all my social media; and it almost lasted ’til night time! Very impressive if you ask me hehe.
I use my tablet pretty much just for social media – Twitter, Instagram, FaceBook, you name it! It has actually helped me not get too distracted while working on things – editing videos, working on designs, blogging. Nowadays I only have a couple of tabs and windows open for my laptop; work related for the most part hehe.
What I love to do the most on my Tab 3, is to watch Netflix. There’s no television in my office, and I love having either a show or movie playing in the background while I work for I’m not too fond of having complete silence lol; So I use my tablet to watch TV shows or movies while working. Right now, if you look closely at the pictures, I’m watching Pretty Little Liars (kind of addicted to it).
My Favorite Apps
Netflix, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Pinterest and Castle TD
I’m currently looking for cool apps to download, so if you have any suggestions, let me know in the comments below. Do you have a tablet? Let me know what kind and what do you like to use it for?

This is so nice sis!!! I really need a tablet as well because people tell me it’s really handy and perfect for social media people… it’s also perfect for watching movies raw even when you’re in the bathroom. hihihi :D
omg you are missing out love! a tablet is a must! :D go go and get one ;)
Congrats on the tablet! It looks like it would be very convenient. I don’t currently own one; and its hard to justify getting one now because i both have a laptop and an ereader.
:) thanks sweetie!
what kind of ereader do you have? i almost bought one last december because i want to get into reading some more… lol but i stopped myself because I wasn’t sure if i’d really use it
If I remember it right, it’s your BB Tablet in that place before :) Nice to see you have a new one. New year, new tablet! <3 I was also confused whether to get this or iPad mini but BF gifted me iPad mini last December and I'm enjoying it too! I can't suggest much on the app as I also use my tablet mostly for social media stuff. Maybe you can download more photo apps and share it again on your YT Channel :)
hehe yup! I’ve had my bb tablet for like over 2 years now so it’s about time that I get a new one
and awww that’s so sweet of your bf! i wanted an ipad as well for i love my iphone and am so used to it but this one is just as good hehe
Yay!! :D Congrats! I have the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 and I love mine to death. :) Mine has the stylus and it’s super useful – especially for school haha. Since I use mine mainly for school, I just have a ton of apps that are for school like Dropbox and Google Drive… Oh and Pandora haha. I really like using my tablet for games because of the big screen LOL. Since mine came with a stylus I have an app called Autodesk Pro or something….? It just lets me draw on my tablet like you would on a sketch pad :)
awesome :D
oh yeah! i use dropbox ALL the time lol i have a stylus (didn’t come with this) but i never use it lol
im thinking to get a tab as well but not really needed as of now haha but soon though, maybe I’ll need to start practising samsung stuffs hehe i used apple. i love PLL! waiting for another new Episode. x0 http://www.tauyanm.com
I really wanna get a tablet for university to make notes, presentations etc. My laptop is really light but still my back hurts when carrying my lappi around all the time :/ I would def. need more than 16GB though, it would hardly be enough to fit all my music :D
I feel you! When I was in college I used my tablet half the time to take notes because I didn’t want to carry around my laptop >.<; Also with this tablet, you can actually put in an SD Card so it's really awesome! More room for your music ;)
Congrats on your new tablet sis! Very helpful talga if you own a tablet. Like me if tamad ako mag open ng laptop ko kasi ayaw ko pa bumangon sa bed, I use my tablet instead in updating my blogs. Hihi. :))
Yours looks really pretty esp if placed on your table. Napaka girly! Super idol ko talga table and room mo! Hihi. :)
hehe , i got a samsung tab 3 last december my hubby bought me for my birthday .. so far its good naman sometimes it gets hang just clear the cauche and try to download the plan b for security purpose :) have fun dear!
Seems like it is really good – it’s hard to switch when you came from apple but it seems a good one for a chance – since I am a fan of Samsung, too.
Cheers to your new Samsung Tablet! My sister is convincing me to get one ’cause its suitable for the blogging lifestyle! Lol. Btw, I’m loving your desk love! (White roses!)
It’s nice that the battery life last long as that’s the problem of most tablets.
Cool beans! I’m a fan of Samsung too because I can say their gadgets are worth the price. Even though I don’t own a samsung tablet, I tested the quality during my Samsung phone days!
Hubby’s been bugging me to get a tablet or maybe an iPad but I don’t know which one to get. Anyway, thank you for this review and will definitely go check this one out.
I use my tablet for social media as well! I need to subscribe to Netflix and do this!
sounds neat! I have a Tab 2. I bet the photo quality is way better on the tab 3 though! Enjoy your new toy!! :)
super nice…we have the tab 1 7.0 plus version….
