sorted by@mcdexsta: I don’t understand either why this is so cold. Especially considering that this is deal is better than the Argos one, which has over 400o (£179, with £30 vouchers).
This system with the cold votes is not working. Many good deals are missed.
The HUKD people should really consider removing the option for voting cold. Let the heat do the talking…
Think its the lack on info that has attracted the -ve votes, not a bad thing as I don't get paid until next week. Think the UK's voting system as a whole needs reformed lol.
Took the words right out of my mouth.... Don't know about apple fans out there, but when I buy something, I want to be able to do what the hell I want to it, customise it, remove crap that I don't need, etc... and Android allows this.... Thumbs up to Open Source ! Oh, and Samsung do make nice tabs

Don't be fooled by a price drop on an already overpriced product to a still over priced product
Saying that I'm voting Hot as this is a deal site not a review site...This is still the cheapest price for this product
(edited)
5 years old spec, in fact the original was better because it was OLED.
Why are people buying this?
The Apple ecco system is so restrictive I would never buy any of their products. You can do so much more in the Android space and use your tablet the way you want and not the way Apple dictates.
As for Samsung, I think their mid to high end products are mostly very good.

Yep
Comment of the night for me!!! :-) I actually laughed out loud! Heat for the comment and the price! :-)
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 is yet another addition to the Samsung family. It runs on Android and is one of the cheaper 10-inch models on the market. But does it represent value for money? Is the processor fast enough? And what's the battery life like? We reveal all in our full review below.
The Tab 4 is a decent Android tablet. It's relatively cheap for a larger, 10-inch tablet and is good for watching video or running two apps side by side.
What is it?
It's the large, 10-inch version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4. Samsung's range can be quite bewildering so it's worth pointing out that the Tab series represents its mid-range tablets. They're not quite up to the same standard as the Tab Pro or Note Pro, but still do a good job overall.
What's it like to use?
It's up to the job of handling most tablet tasks, including browsing the internet, watching video or making a video call. It sports a 1,280x800-resolution screen, which is the same as the previous two generations, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 and Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. And while the display is still good, we would prefer it if Samsung had updated the display to keep up with the latest rivals in terms of picture clarity.
The touchscreen is generally reactive and sensitive to commands.
Weighing in at 490g, it's slightly lighter than its predecessor and is among the lighter large-screen tablets.
It has a micro-SD card slot which means that you can expand the memory - this isn't something you'll find on rival tablets such as the Google Nexus 7 (2).
And this is a tablet to share with all the family thanks to the multiple-user accounts feature. It's possible to separate everything including apps, content, photos and video. You can also create a restricted account which is handy if your children are using the tablet.
You can open text and Excel documents without having to download an app first. And it's good for multi-taskers because it supports split-screen apps.
What's the battery life like?
Sadly, we noticed it is slow to charge up fully. But once you have a full tank, it'll last for seven hours and 20 minutes of video playback or over seven and a half hours of wi-fi web browsing. This is OK, but most rival tablets do better, with some lasting for more than 10 hours.
Is there anything else I should know?
The screen is difficult to read outside in bright daylight, even if you set it to maximum brightness.
The 1.2GHz processor is a little slow, sometimes you'll notice that the screen can be a little sluggish to rotate and there is often a delay between what you type and what appears on screen.
Photos from the rear camera lack definition and overall the tablet feels plasticky.
Should I buy it?
Although it's not the best tablet on the market, it is nonetheless worth considering if you want a solid 10-inch Android tablet at a reasonable price.

Pros: OK battery life, expandable memory, separate user accounts, supports split-screen apps
Cons: Slow processor, no screen upgrade, poor rear camera, plasticky feel
The hudl2. Better screen, faster and more future proof. Although this deal is a very good price for the Tab 4 which is unashamedly aimed at the budget end of the market.
I'd go for replacement, this one...
What do you class as slow?
Tab3 is lower spec, and Tab2 is even lower spec, which will be slower than this one. Tab S is higher spec, which will be faster than this one.
All depends on how fast you want your Tab...
Very true... The other thing is, even though a deal is not for everyone, or may not be a great product, it may be the cheapest out there, but people still vote it cold, even though they can't find it cheaper elsewhere... someone may want a particular item, which others don't, but it still gets a cold vote.
ROFL. How is a hudl more future proof? On what planet!
Exactly, and that's where this site actually gets the cold vote itself. You read people moaning about duplicate posts, but sometimes the original post hardly gained heat because, despite being the cheapest, people vote cold just because they don't like the product. So those that actually would have liked the item miss the deal because it never gains the deserved heat.
Glad that there's people out here who believe...
The same price? So can I take the argos vouchers to any other store or bank and use it there? No. So I have to spend those vouchers in Argos on stuff I probably dont need. Therefore the equivalent of paying 179 for the tab and getting some free stuff. This is 139, the other 40 quid gets to stay in your wallet...
Agreed, the reason everything basically starts off cold is because people just vote with their opinions on what it is. Same happens with iPads etc. I dont have the time to go through the new deals section unfortunately but I do now just search for what I need in the new deals section to see if there is anything decent. I've bought plenty of things that were voted cold.
Is the extra processor speed and screen resolution on the Pro worth an extra £104.89?
Jerky, like, your, sentences? Also streaming is fine on my Tab 2 so I don't believe that the faster Tab 4 would be worse. Ignored.
*At this price point (£139), this is the best 10.1" tablet money can get you at the moment.
*Yes, there are better 8" or 9" tablets, but they are not 10.1". If people care more about the specs and not the screen size, then go for the HUDL2 etc.
*Yes, there are better 10.1" tablets, but over £220 or so. This is a big price jump for some people, not justified for the higher resolution etc.
*I can read newspapers on a tablet of 1280x800 resolution. Even without my spectacles! Ta.
Let's just accept that different people have different budgets, needs, list of requirements.
(in case people respond to this post, links with alternative deals would be appreciated)
Actually it's not. It's fast even using Touchwiz. The screen is very crystal clear. The processor and RAM are fine. Unless you've actually tried it, don't make silly comments.
Whats the internal memory of this Device please ..... thanx. :-)
Sorry mistake its not
[quote=amour3k]Not bad OP.

16gb, think that is the only version released in the UK
(edited)
argos with £179 plus £30 voucher and £10 voucher for order over £100. value £139 for a Galaxy tab 4. so they all the same price
FYI - The £30 of vouchers come on 2 cards 1 with £10 the other with the remaining £20 as you pay at the till.
Not £30 + £10
Comment
Yes it does!! Just look at UKIP's raw deal!
My Tab 4 8.4 inch is rated at 12 hours, in reality I get at least 9 hours
