While you can still run mobile games on it, but don’t expect much out of it especially with just 2GBs of RAM. In 3DMark, you can see that it performs pretty okay in Ice Storm Unlimited, but suffers greatly in both Sling Shot tests. It’s not horrible, sure, but it could be better. It has entry-level performance so we shouldn’t expect much out of it, whether in single-core or multi-core performance. On Geekbench, the results echo what we’ve seen on Antutu. Basically, it performs on par with an entry-level smartphone.

That would have performed a lot better than what this one is using. Given the Snapdragon 429 chipset, it’s no surprise but I honestly expected it to use the same chipset as the 10.1, the Exynos 7904.

It’s not a fingerprint magnet and also not not slippery to hold so most users should have an easier time holding this rather than the 10-inch version. It looks a little bland but it is a simple tablet after all. The Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 (2019) has a solid build quality thanks to its metal (aluminum) chassis. Lastly on the right side, you have a power button and a volume rocker. On the left side, you have the SIM card / MicroSD tray residing in solitude. On the bottom, you have a Micro USB port and a microphone hole, which are positioned in the middle of two speaker grilles. On the top of the device, you have the 3.5mm audio jack residing in solitude.
