Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook review

A Samsung tablet with but a cranny of Nook

Great price ; Premium look and feel ; Nook-friendly firmware adjustments

Devoid of Nook identity ; Puny storage space

Samsung and Barnes & Noble's joint tablet effort sees Samsung take the wheel in almost every regard to great effect, but that only makes us miss the Nook look and feel.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 review

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 4's meager specs and humble design make it easy to pass over in a sea of budget Android devices. But don't be too hasty, as it is worth your consideration. It has a pretty good HD display, coupled with capable performance for...

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 delivers satisfying performance for web browsing and casual gaming, and has a pretty good screen, for just $180.

That budget price is now matched by superior devices like the Nexus 7. You'll want to invest in a microSD card.

The $180 Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 is a fine choice for a budget tablet, but it's ultimately bested by great older devices, and new slates that are cheaper still.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7 review

(Rating Hidden)

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7 is a compact Android tablet. With a sub-£200 price tag, it joins the crowded cheap seven-inch tablet market. We like the fact it has a micro-SD card to expand the memory. But does it have what it takes to stand out? We ran it...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 review

Down the pecking order from the Tab S comes the Galaxy Tab 4, a middling tablet for people who don't want to shell out big bucks for the best stuff. But does it do enough to make it worth your consideration?

Decent processor, slim but sturdy build, expandable memory, decent battery life

TouchWiz might be a bit busy for some, not waterproof, poor cameras

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 is a decent tablet overall, though it doesn't come in at a particularly budget price. It performs reasonably well and the battery life doesn't disgrace, but it's let down by its relatively poor camera set and so-so screen.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook review: good for reading, but hardly the best budget tablet

There was a time when Barnes & Noble was so big, so dominating, that even Tom Hanks managed to look like a jerk when he played a book-chain executive

Good-looking design ; Bright screen ; The Nook app here is an improvement over the regular Nook for Android ; Price includes some free books, magazines and TV shows

Short battery life compared to competing devices ; Sluggish performance ; Skimpy built-in storage

With an improved reading app, the Galaxy Tab 4 Nook could be a compelling choice for loyal Barnes & Noble customers. But if all you want is a budget Android tablet, you can do better, even at this price.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 offers decent performance and a nice screen, but better budget options abound

The 7-inch Galaxy Tab 4 offers good performance at a great price, but it's eclipsed by the competition.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 white, 7-inch

And it's available for just $180 (after a $20 instant rebate) in the US and £159 in the UK. That's a fair price for what you're getting, and you won't really go wrong with the Galaxy Tab 4. But if you're willing to shop around, there are plenty of...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook black

The first fruit of the collaboration is the Galaxy Tab 4 Nook. The hardware isn't new at all: in fact, this is exactly the same tablet as the existing Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 , available at the same price ($179 with a $20 rebate). But the Nook version uses...

The Galaxy Tab 4 Nook offers a thin and light 7-inch Android tablet with access to the full Google Play store and a bunch of Nook-centric freebies for just $179. The microSD card slot supports cards of up to 32GB, and it doubles as a TV remote thanks...

Except for Barnes & Noble's skinned interface, this is identical to Samsung's existing 7-inch Tab 4, right down to the average screen and camera resolution. If you're doing anything more than reading, you'll need to invest in that extra memory card....

While it doesn't offer much to distinguish itself from other Android tablets, the Galaxy Tab 4 Nook is a decent 7-inch tablet at an affordable price.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook (black) review

Back in the early days of tablets -- about three or four years ago -- Barnes & Noble was a major player in the market. But that was then, and this is now: with the exception of its GlowLight e-ink reader , the bookseller is now out of the tablet...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook is an average Android tablet that isn't a very good value, even with Barnes & Noble's bundled content.

Smooth performance. Runs Android 4.4. Compact and lightweight.

Relatively expensive. Multiple redundant app stores. Low-pixel-density display.

Content and Conclusions Barnes & Noble makes a big deal about the bundled promotional content, which it estimates at about $200 worth. That includes free books, magazines, and TV shows. Our test unit came with copies of Freakonomics , The Fault in Our...
