I almost bit on this one, but ended up getting the free Samsung instead. Ordered a few days ago and it should be arriving tomorrow.

can you test it to see if it works with T-Mobile voice sim?
Nope, I can't. Don't have Tmobile as a service

Anyone from the previous iphone13/samsung tablet/watch deal able to get in on this? There were issues with the site for some of us ordering anything at all after that ... just wondering if it's possible to order anything new if we did the previous deal?

The free Samsung tablet is pretty bad, as bad as fire tablet.
That's because it's 4 GB not 8 GB anything android 4 GB is fail including phones
Purely because the stock is takes 2-3 GB of ram alone min is now 8gb android is the Windows of phones vs pc windows is windows and macosx is just Linux lmao. But apple been adding too much crap

Oh my, I'm kind of surprised to see that Motorola has a tablet. Must be a rebadge from Lenovo.

Just received my Moto Pad and I now own both the Metro's tablets - Moto Pad 2026 and Samsung Galaxy A9+ 4GB/64GB.

IMHO, even at $50 more, the moto pad 2026 is the better value. It comes with 8GB RAM vs the Samsung's 4GB, plus an 11-inch 2.5K screen that's sharper than the Tab A9+ 5G's display. Both have the same 7040mAh battery and quad speakers, but Motorola adds Dolby Atmos. Not to mention, Moto also has double the storage from 64Gb in Samsung to 128GB in Moto.

To be fair, Samsung does have some software extras like Multi-active Windows and Samsung Kids, but for straight-up media and browsing, the moto pad beats it. If you mostly watch YouTube, read, and do light multitasking, the extra RAM and screen quality make the Motorola the easy pick.

I just received it today too. Its a good tablet. I like it more than the Samsung A9+. Very smooth. No lags. unfortunately it doesn't work with T-Mobile sim while its locked.

edit: it works with T-Mobile data sim. just not voice sim.

I'm concerned about security updates and the fact that I was unable to find any mention of future updates.
