I have had this tablet for over two years and I love it! There was absolutely nothing wrong with this tablet and got it fir a great price! Watching movies and YouTube on it is great. The screen is very responsive. The size is just what I needed. I find myself preferencing this over my laptop. I never thought I'd be a tablet person but I guess I am. If you want an Android tablet, this is it. The display is phenomenal, speed is blazing, and battery life is great. Samsung has continued their tradition of world-class products with this one.
I was in an accident almost two years ago and my life turned upside down. I've become a shut in stuck in a wheel chair and my son bought me a Samsung tablet on mothers day. It became my link to the outside world, my news source and entertainment and when the pain gets bad and I can't sleep I'd listen to books on it. The tablet is awesome and has great features bur it's one draw back is it's very fragile. This is NOT a tablet for a child. A short drop from my couch with a protective case on and it still shattered the screen. I was shocked and heartbroken how easily the screen shattered. AND of all the days to drop it, I dropped it on my birthday! Ruined my day! The warranty doesn't cover the screen and I haven't worked since my accident so I can't afford to have it repaired. I wish Samsung had a donation program but they don't. I'll try to find a program that will repair them for the needy, schools etc. because it would still make a nice tablet for someone who can afford to repair it. The insides work great so I don't want to just throw it away.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Lightweight, beautiful display, nice camera, great apps, i loved my tablet just wish it wasn't so fragile, great for games email news books youtube
Cons: too fragile, glass shatters easily, not durable, expensive
I first bought a 9.7 Galaxy and thought it was great. However when I saw the 10.5 and what it could do, I bought it. I have not regretted either decision. My daughter took my 9.7 and we both can say we use them more than any other electronic device. Super reliability and a 10 on fun. I wouldn't have a problem buying another one. I highly recommend the tablets of Samsung
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, easy to handle, functions layed out well
I've owned my tablet for nearly two years, and I spent the first 6 months saying, "OMG" frequently when I discovered something new that this wonderous little machine can do! It isn't a phone, but with a vonage app, I was able to talk to my kids while sitting in a hospital emergency room with my husband as he was having a heart attack. There really isn't anything it cannot do, and the ability to use the tiny SD cards for storage as well as cloud storage gives me everything I need all wrapped up in a pretty white package. That it has only 16 Gb of memory means nothing. As the world becomes ever more WiFi enabled, being conected at no monthly cost is quite easy. I have recommended the Galaxy Tab S to everyone I know, and will continue to do so because I love its ease of use, the impressive things it will do for me, and its stability. I have only one wish for it, and that is a battery that lasts longer between charges, but I'm a heavier than usual tablet user, too. I spend around 4 hours per day on it, with a heavy load of work. I do have a bluetooth keyboard which I recommend to anyone who has a tablet and uses it hard.
I like the large size of the display, and also it's not too heavy. Streaming video looks great on this and battery life is good too. Lasts all day and I just charge it at night. Only issue is a couple times it just powered down on it's own while I was watching video. Not sure if it's the tab or the app.
