Q: can I make a cellular phone call without video chat with this tablet?
A: Hi Theresa, thanks for taking a moment out of your day to ask us your question about the Samsung Galaxy Tab A8. Don't you hate it when your phone starts ringing once you’re snuggled up and comfortable in bed? With the Call & text on other devices feature, you can make and receive calls on your tablet as long as it's signed into the same Samsung account as your phone. You can also send messages. However, the connected phone will need to have active service. Call & text on other devices currently does not work with Verizon and AT&T phones and may not be available on all models from other carriers. If your Call & text on other devices version is higher than 3.3.00, these features have changed. In order to make or receive calls, both the tablet and phone must be using the same Wi-Fi network. You can send and receive messages whether or not both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network. The Tab A8 (2022) does support Call & text on other devices. If you think of any other questions for us, reach out to Samsung Support. Thanks for being a loyal customer Samsung customer. - Debra
