This is the Samsung Galaxy Tab E. This version here is unknown as the SM-T560, or the gtelwifi. The Samsung Galaxy Tab E comes from the factory with Android 4, upgradeable to... it isn't. That is a big drawback already. However, there aren't many others, other than that this is a 9 year old tablet, since it was released in 2015. It has 1.5 gb of ram, and a Snapdragon or Spreadtrum chipset. Mine has the Spreadtrum processor, which is the worse one of the two. If I had the Snapdragon one, I could have flashed Android 11, but I had to settle with Android 7. But thats beside the point. It has quite a good screen for 2015, with a strange 800p screen resolution. It has a nice, clicky home button (something missing on newer phones) and the touch sensitive buttons next to the home button work surprisingly well. The cameras are quite bad, with the rear camera being 5 megapixels, and the front one being only 2. They take photos, but in a low resolution. I don't recommend using it as a camera, but who actually uses a tablet as a camera anyway? No, Seriously, if you do, just get a camera. The speaker is better than my laptop speakers.
It may look like a normal bootup...
But I have flashed a custom ROM on it.

And we're in!
The main problem on the Galaxy Tab E with Android 7 is storage space. As you can see by the picture, with you only have 8gb of storage, and part of that is recovery stuff and openGAPPS. Then, 5gb of whats left is the ROM, leaving you with roughly 3gb of usable space. install one 2gb app (like WOT Blitz) and you're low on storage. So get an sd card, and format it as internal storage. sadly, the largest sd card I had was only 2 gb, so I'm stuck with that. anyway, WOT blitz runs ok but with absurdly long loading times, while Super Cat Bros runs amazingly, and Drastic emulates DS games surprisingly well, although the controls are WAY to big.
My main problem with the Tab E: storage space
World of Tanks Blitz does run, but not especially well.
Super Cat Bros runs perfectly, without any slowdowns. And, as a plus, it's an amazing game!
Other than that, Youtube runs fine, Spotify is practically unusable, but Spotify Lite works well. Discord takes an ETERNITY to open, but then works fine, but maybe a bit slow, and the built in browser just fails to open some webpages. This tablet is proof that devices that are nine years old, or even more, can still be used in the modern world, as long as you lower your expectations just a bit. You can't really multitask on it, but if you're just watching a Youtube video, or just listening to something on Spotify Lite, its quite a decent little tablet! I don't recommend you rush out and buy one, buy a decent tablet instead. Like a new Lenovo or Samsung tablet. It'll be better. Just don't get a Craig.
