Samsung Kids Galaxy Tab E Lite: Encourage imagination and learning with the Samsung Kids Tab E Lite. An integrated bumper case protects this device from drops and falls, and parental controls let you limit the time your little ones can play. With apps from Dreamworks, Sesame Street and National Geographic, the Samsung Kids Tab E Lite makes learning fun.

Returned for several reasons

Verified Purchase:Yes
Here's why we returned this tablet after one day:
1) The kids mode is glitchy and doesn't truly lock kids out of the main user interface. The drawing app crashed multiple times, sometimes backing out into kids mode but sometimes crashing the kids mode and backing into the main Android interface. This defeats the purpose of having a lockable kids mode where they can only access pre approved apps.
2) You cannot uninstall the subscription based Samsung Kids app. That and the other bloatware meant that we started running out of space after about 24 hours, despite having a 64gb micro SD card. Most apps can only be downloaded to the internal memory.
Other problems:
-There is only one rear facing speaker and it is exactly where a toddlers legs are when she holds it on her lap. The volume in the store sounded good because it was bouncing off a solid surface. In real life, the volume was insufficient.
-To let two different kids use it, you have to set up separate users, each with their own version of kids mode, and manually (as the parent) back out of kids mode, sign into a different Google user account, and then relaunch kids mode.
-Poor viewing angles: it's difficult for two kids to watch at the same time.
-Samsung flips the back button from the left side to the right side. Not a deal breaker, just weird. In general, the Samsung UI seemed less intuitive than stock Android.
-We were given a lot of misinformation from the Samsung reps about other tablets at Best Buy we were considering.

Positives
-The device seems solidly built.
-The bumper fits well.
-It's nice to easily add a restricted user. Although that's a feature of Android Lollipop, not all tablets support this.

Yes, it can handle up to 128mb per the sales rep. We got a 64gb card.
