Great for taking notes in college!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this at the beginning of spring semester because I was unhappy with my ipad for college use and I wanted something that was better for taking notes. I have always used apple products and while they are great for certain things, taking notes is not one of them. From the first time I used my Tab S7 I was extremely impressed with the note taking capabilities. The s pen feels very natural to hold and erasing things is so much easier than with apple pencil. The writing experience itself feels very natural, the tip glides gently on the screen but has enough resistance that you feel like you're writing with an actual pen or pencil. I like that the s pen is not huge and clunky, and I also LOVE that it stays charged much longer than my apple pen. The tablet also tells you if your pen is away from your tablet so you won't forget it somewhere! Taking notes has been a breeze and I can seamlessly transfer them to my phone or PC so I never have to worry about forgetting something at home. If you're a college student looking for a device to take notes on, this is it.
It's been very durable and held up to being in my backpack daily, it has no scratches or damage despite being lugged everywhere I go.
Seriously, after having ipads for as long as I can remember (since the 1st gen), this just feels so much better. The keyboard case is pretty awesome too it keeps my s pen secure and my screen protected and it's like having a mini laptop wherever you go. The trackpad is super responsive as well and very useful when navigating websites. I've used it for zoom as well and it's been great! Overall this is the best tablet I've ever used for college!
College experience aside, the speakers on this thing are 10x better than either of my ipads (I have the 9.7 pro, and ipad air 4). And the screen is very crisp and clear and responsive. I love watching Netflix and other streaming services on this thing and I've never had an issue.
For gaming it's been amazing as well, it doesn't overheat and lag out like many tablets out there even after back to back rounds of League of legends Wild Rift or arena of valor. I've played PUBG just fine on it as well, although it's not my favorite game lol.
Anyhow, I could go on for days but I think you get the idea. This thing is amazing and I cannot recommend it enough, Samsung has really outdone themselves here!
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from a Tab S4 and it was well worth it! Battery life, S pen, display graphics and sound quality are just a few of the welcome updates. I'll probably have this tablet for a while!

A University Grad Student's Best Friend
on September 1, 2021
Posted by: MSJ7
from Maryland
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this about 2-3 weeks ago and it's literally the best thing to have as a University/College Undergrad/Grad student. It's basically my own assistant cause it has everything on it for me.
FEATURES I LOVE: First thing first, I absolutely love Samsung Notes app that's already installed. You can create folders, folders within folders, and categorize them however you want. But what's even better is that you can change the template, color, utensil (pen, highlighter, pencil, etc.) as well as the color (soooo many to choose from). You can even type out your notes if you'd like. You can also voice record while writing your notes! (It's literally so perfect to bring with you during lectures) There's even a calendar and weekly planning template in the app so it doubles as your planner!
Also, the placement of the camera is so nice for meetings and just general video chatting with friends. It doesn't come from an awkward angle, so it actually looks like you're paying attention to the person you're video-chatting with.
Also, as a grad student, I needed a multi-tasking master tool and I love how I can literally do three different things at once, or even four...(listening to music, reading lecture slides, referring to class notes, taking study notes/homework) There's even a way where you save the multitasking windows on the sidebar slide thingy and it's soooo useful especially if you don't want to keep having to re-open the same windows/apps you use for multi-tasking. And this might be a bit random, but I personally love using Bixby.
BATTERY: I LOVE the battery life on my Tab S7! Light use (so about 3-4 hours a day usually to take or read notes/books/slides) it lasts me 5-6 days. Heavy use (usually about 8-9 hours a day, OR watching videos/movies for 5 hours - binging shows on weekends) lasts me about 3 days. But this is to say that I only charge the tablet up to 80% and charge it when it hits 20%. One more but, the usage depends from person to person and some people might feel/see that they use up their battery a lot quicker than I do because you do have to change some settings and turn on battery-saving mode in order to last really long. But the settings aren't even that bad - like putting the tablet on dark mode instead of light mode (I prefer dark mode anyway - doesn't hurt my eyes).
PERFORMANCE: I'm not really sure how else to say except that it does everything I need. It's fast and it does what I need it to. It's quick, no lag, great battery...and I'm not super techy so yeah, I think it's awesome.

The ONLY thing I wish it was able to do was let me customize and install themes on it like they do for their phones. I currently have a S20 and I love how I'm able to customize icons and themes on there and wish the tab s7 also had that feature. For me, I love to customize my things, so I was pretty bummed out that I couldn't change my icons/apply themes.
I would recommend this to a friend!
