Almost Perfect

I've only had it for a few days, but thus far it's almost perfect. The first thing I wanted to check was visibility in full sunlight for reading books. It's simply the best device I've ever seen for daylight visibility. I'm still on the fence about their changing the 'back' buttons functionality.
The one flaw I've found ( and it is that annoying ) is the gold trim around the edge of the device. It's cheap!! It moves against the case of the device. How this nice a tool/toy got stuck with a trim piece like this is beyond me. I've been buying solely Samsung for about 5 years ( and each purchase I consider all devices out there: the Samsung's win on their own features each time ) and I've never seen something so trivial cause such a negative feeling for me about a device. You might consider waiting for the first remodel to see if they fix this ridiculous issue.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: Poor quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

I received this tablet for Valentine's Day. Better than flowers to me. All our electronic devices are Samsung. The thinness was scary for me because I keep thinking I will snap it in half, but it's actually built very well. The display is impressively crisp. Very versatile. Can easily be customized for your specific taste. Can make profiles for different users. Even set it up with a kid friendly profile. Battery life with daily use is ok. My only real complaints would be that when using the tablet in the vertical position, I keep hitting the home key and the 2 touch keys next to it. And it does not support flash player. That means the videos that people posts on Facebook cannot be viewed and games I play on popular gaming sites cannot be played. That is frustrating, but I am still very happy with this little guy. The price is expensive, but hopefully it will come down in the future. I would like to get one for my teenagers.
It's extremely responsive tablet that does pretty much everything I can throw at it. The benefit of WatchOn is awesome as I can literally control everything in my home theater with this device. It's extremely fast even when running a ton of apps at the same time.
Overall a great tablet. Resolution is fantastic, sound is surprisingly good. This is my second Samsung tab and am very pleased with the purchase. Much thinner and lighter than my tab 3. It does not disappoint.
Cons: my only issue is that it automatically zooms .
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love the tablet

I really like my tablet. I do a lot of the things on it that I would do on my PC. It is small enough to hold easily. I read my e-mail, play games and read downloaded books and magazines on it. I downloaded Moon Reader Pro from the Google Play Store and there are a lot of things you can download to Moon Reader and read them. In some cases it is easier to read on it than other wise. I think this is because it is back-lit and you can see it better there. There are so many things you can download from Google Play Store that it is hard to relate all of them. I have downloaded many and have not had a problem with any of them. I love my color. It is white and I got a grey case for it that makes it really stand out. It looks really good.
I've had the other one (you know the one) for some time now. This Samsung Galaxy S is sooooo much nicer. Call it SMOOTH. Very easy to set up. I like Flipboard and Play Newsstand apps. This is great for travel...through it in my purse or backpack. I had the first Galaxy Tab that came out five or six years ago and it was great...wanted to try the other one. If you're thinking about this Samsung S...don't hesitate you won't be sorry.
I love my new gadget! I have no complaints as of yet. I love that it syncs with my phone. its small and lightweight, but the screen size is just right! Love Samsung products! Screen resolution is AWES0ME!
