I know it's not a note tablet so I won't mention that it needs an S pen :-) This is the thinness piece of electronic device I have owned, it's amazingly fast and crisp colors. -Appearance: I love the way the material on the book cover feels, however I wished it was the same on the tablet, on the tablet it's way too slippery. One more thing about the design, I really dislike the gold trim on it, it doesn't really look bad I'm just not a gold/copper color kinda guy I enjoy the chrome or silver look better. -Performance: The performance is amazing quickest tablet I've owned, I'm glad I waited to buy this. I'm loving the battery saving option, wow it last so long on 10% battery life. The screen is sharp, colors are amazing. Papergarden, I thought it was a stupid app but I find myself reading and browsing magazines.
I hope the Note 4 will be amazing as well I can't wait.
Almost everything you'd want in a tablet.Screens excellent.Interface user freindly.Battery life great. But ......the processor is kinda sluggish when doing a few things at once.Also the price is steep for most people.But Samsung has practically got it right.Nothings perfect.And you can't get any better than this tablet hands down.
This is the best Samsung tablet YET, minimal lagging, sharpest screen I've seen, fastest response, thinnest and lightest tablet I've seen, packed with so many features it's Amazing, Finally A SAMSUNG Tablet that can compete with any tablet out there. Samsung you got a winner!!
So far, I am very happy with my purchase. The screen is amazing and the tablet comes loaded with some great features. I love the fact that it has a slot for micro sd cards so I can expand the memory. My only minor complaint is the placement of the back button. When holding the tablet in landscape mode I have hit it unintentionally a couple of times. A way to lock these buttons might be helpful. Again, to me this is fairly insignificant considering the speed and features of this tablet. I have only had it a couple of days and have barely scratched the surface.
For years I dreamt about owning a 10 inch tablet with an Amoled display. The last slate I owned, was the Google Nexus 10 also made by Samsung. Beautiful display, but the black levels were just not deep enough. Instead of black, you noticed a dark grey! I also have the Galaxy S5, which in my opinion, has the best display of any phone ever made! Also great features on the S. The micro SD slot is great, I just put my slate on steroids with a Samsung Evo 64gb Micro SD card. I ripped Hercules in 1080p and put it on the card. WOW! If there is one thing I would like to have seen better, is the sound quality. The surround sound option in Soundalive when you watch a movie, is good, but the sound is still tinny and flat. I wish it would have had the same quality as the Dolby sound from a certain Fire tablet. All I can say is: I love this tablet!
