Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (SM-T290)
Lightly used (by adult), minimal wear, and still works great and battery lasts a decent time. Reset to factory default state.
Running a clean install of LineageOS 22.2 (Android 15, updated to Jan 7, 2026 security updates) instead of stock Samsung OneUI because they stopped supporting it after Android 11. Boot screen shows a warning that it is not running Samsung's official software, but otherwise, it has the Google Play Store installed and feels like any normal Android tablet/phone (like Google Pixels).
This is the "Kids Edition" which only means it comes with a nice silicone impact-resistant case and the boot screen says "Kids Edition" but otherwise is a normal SM-T290 (the stock Samsung OneUI came with some kids games pre-installed too but those are not installed now).
8" HD screen
Quad-core processor
32GB storage + ability to add micro SD card and use it as expanded internal storage
2GB memory
Micro USB charge port (charge cable included, no power adapter brick but any standard USB power adapter will work)
Look up SM-T290 for other specs if interested. Don't expect a high-power gaming tablet, but this is a light-weight, very portable, entry level tablet that can handle simple games, email/internet browsing, watching movies, etc.
