Really slow video on Samsung Tab A7

I have a Tab A7 and I have a slot game that is just so slow. Yeah, it's a lower end tablet, but we're talking a slot game, not a first person shooter. So I installed and ran 3D Mark Sling Shot and it says my tablet is slower than 81% of all Tab A7s, much less higher end units. My tablet is a 2022 model with 3gb and 32gb. So two questions:

1. Any clue why the video would be so slow?

2. Is there another 8" tablet that would be an improvement in video? I'm fine with any brand. But 8 or 9" seems to be disappearing from the world.

Thanks!!
 
Is this pertaining to a game or a video?
If it's a video you can try VLC to play it.
If it's a game then your ram is probably maxed out and it's trying to play it the best it can. Not much you can do....
 
Have you tried running a different game? The game could be poorly written. Your slow tablet sounds like a resource problem. You might check what is running in the background and determine if something is a hog that doesn't need to be running to free up some ram.

video? do you mean game? have you tried other games? try rebooting the tablet.

as for 8" tablets you want one that has bigger ram. 3 gigs is barely enough these days. 6-8 gogs of ram would be more ideal

gsmarena has a good phone/tablet finder that you can refine your search.
i did one for you:

this one looks good:
