Is It Time For A New One?

[pastafreak]

My Samsung tablet has been giving me problems...
Slow to charge...if down to 75% or lower...had problems with the charging port last year.
Frequently shuts down and restarts
Turning on first thing will get repeated black/grey screen...or even a brief flash followed by black.
The same will happen several times a day.
If I think of anything else I'll add it...it's basically become a pita.

clean out the charging port with a small brush and give it a blow out too then do a factory set on the tablet
i could work you've nothing to loose trying it

How old is it pastafreak?

[pastafreak]

Its a galaxy tab S2 which I think I got in early 2016.

Time for a new one

[pastafreak]

Yes, as I thought. Time to take the plunge. Particularly as there seem to be some deals now and I've got some vouchers to use.
I live in fear of it dying on me.

Enjoy the shipping, I'm quite happy with my cheap Samsung tablet, it's not as old as yours, though.
I see they now do a 14", too big surely?

Shopping, not shipping, gawd

The old marketing ploy - built-in obsolesence.

14"... might as well have a tablet.
I'll be going for lower end of the Samsung scale...sufficient for my needs.
