Got this tablet for Xmas, Took sometime getting use to since I always used apple products. I'm very pleased especially with the option to add more memory to the tablet. The picture quality is good also but what really surprised me is that one day I was searching for an adapter so I can watch movies off my tablet to my tv. I got to thinking, I just purchased a beautiful 75 inch tv( which I will review later) that is also a Samsung. I wonder if they can communicate with each other. So I start digging in to the setting and notice a screen mirroring option on both. Turned them both on and eureka connection made. The tablet streams movies flawlessly to my tv with no hick ups. Not only movies but whatever I do on my tablet is mirrored to my tv, and picture quality is amazing considering the type of connection. Awesome Samsung, just awesome.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, features
I have put off getting a Tablet for very long time.. Laptop has been sufficient for all my needs till now.. I can take This tablet everywhere even work ;) and do alot of things I thought I would need a laptop for.. Very satisfied with this Samsung Tab S 10.5 :)
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, compatible with my windows 8 laptop...
The reason I would not recommend this device to a friend is the poor battery life. On my iPad I could work 2-3 hours a night and not have to recharge the battery until after the second night of working.
Although I love everything else about this device, for the money I expect better quality in the battery. If I could return this device, even though I dearly love its features compared to the iPad, I would and purchase a newer version of the iPad.
The battery life (from 100% charged to <30% charged after 2-3 hours of use) is a MAJOR DRAWBACK in my opinion!!!!!!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, never drops the wifi signal
Cons: Did not meet expectations, battery is atrociously poor!
I owned the Tab S 8.4 for several months and thought it was perfect. Well, except for my old eyes. I had an iPad 2 and this replaced it, just as the 8.4" replaced the iPad Mini. Excellent screen and the Android interface works much better for me than iOS. I probably should have bought the 10.5" instead of the 8.4" initially, but, now I have two and my wife has her own Tab S.
I absolutely love this device. I have the S5 Phone too, and its so neat to use these together...as well as be able to remotely control my tv. There are so many cool features, I look forward to discovering something new every day. I'm hooked!
