I love how the 8.4 fits my hands. Also love the Vibrant display. Everything about this tablet is wonderful. I really like how I can sync my galaxy phone. I also can put my books on Kindle with this tablet and also have the book go onto my paperwhite. Reading on this tablet is also easy.
As if designed to anger its owners the Galaxy Tab S broke shortly after the 1 year warranty expired. I have owned and enjoyed many samsung products from galaxy phones to their 4k 65" tv's but the galaxy Tab S is a failure of Samsung. It has forced me to reconsider Samsung as my first choice for high end electronics.
Within several months of purchase the battery life quickly decreased by half and slowly declined further until i could only rely on the battery for an average of 20 minutes. Then the product would flicker with lines across the screen and then restart on its own but when it came back on it would have dropped from 98% power to 2% only to continue restarting over and over again. I was really excited about my tablet but now I'm disappointed that I can't trust Samsung which is really the only one I want.
Switching from ipad. Recently purchased a Galaxy S5 phone and absolutely love it. Wife just bought an Apple iPad mini. Like the size as we do a lot of traveling. But limited memory. So I thought I would try Galaxy Tab S 8.4. Storage capabilities are awesome. Very fast processor. Battery life so far so good. Haven't had it long. Display is AMAZING. Blows ipad retina away. All this and half the price of an apple. So far I am a VERY satisfied customer.
Wonderful and powerful piece of high engineering, science and art - it is simply beautiful and high quality. I have found Samsung applications pretty good, i'm really impressed (personally, i really like studio, gallery and software for camera). Finger scan works perfectly also. Main problem here is that unwanted applications can't be deactivated. So, with everyday use, this amazing tool is simply overloaded with completely useless tasks...
Very pleased with the Tab S. Holding it can be a challenge, sometimes my thumb will launch an app that I did not want. Get the cover, it works. Disappointed with the office type software pre-loaded, Hancock I think it is called. It couldn't open an excel document but Polaris on my Galaxy S4 could so I installed and it can.
Cons: holding thumb placement, screen too sensitive
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best tablet display

I have had my galaxy tab s 8.4 for about a month now and it is the best tablet I have owned. I love the display for reading or watching Netflix. I like the overall size big screen but in a small lightweight portable package it actually fits in my pocket.
This tablet is an upgrade for me from the Galaxy Tab 10.1, and Samsung has certainly out done themselves. This is one of the reasons my husband and I only buy Samsung products.
As soon as I bought this tablet Istarted to have so much happiness if you know what I mean!!! This thing is a chick magnet! But seriously way better than anything else on the market!! Love this tablet
