The Galaxy Tab A7 Lite is a compact 8.7-inch tablet that's light enough to carry everywhere, with full Play Store access and expandable storage. It does streaming, reading and kids' apps fine, but the low-resolution display, poor cameras and sluggish performance under load make it strictly an entry-level slate.
