Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.5 Repair

The Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.5 is a 10.5-inch Android tablet released by Samsung Electronics in August 2018. The Tab A 10.1 tablet is part of Samsung’s A series, which includes 7-, 8-, 9.7-, and 10.1-inch models. The Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.5 includes two model numbers, the SM-T590 (Wi-Fi), and the SM-T595 (LTE). The Tab A 10.5 was released in black, blue, and white body colors.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.5 was sold with 32 GB of internal storage and 3 GB of RAM. The tablet’s 10.5-inch display has a resolution of 1200 by 1920 pixels. The A 10.5 includes an 8-megapixel main camera and a 5-megapixel selfie or front-facing camera. The device also includes stereo speakers and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. It features a large 7300 mAh non-removable battery, meaning its battery is attached to the inside of the device using a permanent adhesive, making repair and replacement more difficult, but not necessarily impossible.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.5 is a fairly nondescript tablet and includes only the name “Samsung” in capital letters in the center of the tablet’s back. The best way to identify the tablet is by opening the “Settings” or “Options” application and finding the “About Tablet” section. The model number can be found by looking for the model number section.
