Samsung galaxy tab A7 lite

[Bev54]

I have a samsung galaxy tab A7 lite and it has not done anything software update since August last year, it is just under 3 years and the security patch is July 2024, does my tablet A7 lite still get security and software updates?

The Galaxy A7 lite was released 2021 and promised 4 years of security updates (last year Binannual)  imagine Sammy Fans reporting information from Samsung's security site.  https://security.samsungmobile.com/workScope.smsb

Think so as I've checked it with Samsung's security website, also just to make sure. Thank you @JAMES4578 For pointing perfect link 🙏

@Greenmum1
I have not had any issues with my samsung galaxy tab A7 lite, except software and security updates, mine last updated end of August 2024 so with these tablets updating biannually, it means that my samsung galaxy tab A7 lite is due another update at the end of February this year, I am sorry you are having problems with your tab A7 lite

I find it incredibly slow and sluggish, takes forever to boot up, really disappointing, I only use it for reading now

[Bev54]

I understand about being slow mine is the same but once it has warmed up it isn't too bad, have you tried cleaning your cache partition

[Greenmum1]

Hi, yes i tried that thanks😊

@Greenmum1 i am sorry you are having problems with your tablet running slow, if you don't mind me asking please, do you restart your tablet weekly ?
I was advised some years ago to restart my devices at least once a week x
