This tablet is awesome. This is my 2nd galaxy tablet I had the Tab2 10.1 and needed an upgrade to watch certain movie formats. My only worry is the micro charging port. I've had the first Note, and the Tab 3 phablet both charging ports had to be replaced after a couple of years, the Tab 2 10.1 had a charging port similar to the iPhone/iPad and I had that for 5 years with no issues. Oh and the speakers on the TadS 10.5 are 100% better than the Tab2 10.1 tablet.
I have been using the tablet for a month and I really like it. The kids prefer this over the iPad. I am using it as a remote, a reader, and a lot more. Great value
We decided to purchase the Tab S instead of the S2 since the reviews mentioned the benefits and quality of the older model were slightly better. Those who have seen the tablet and have other brands kept commenting about the picture quality, thinness of the design and ease of use. We're glad we decided to pay more for a Samsung, choosing it above an iPad, but wish the price had been lower considering it was an older model.
The Galaxy Tab S is by far one of the leading tablets on the market for your money. Why would you pay 2 or 3 times the amount for another companies products only to have them be substandard? The Tab S transitions very smooth between programs and screens. It has great multi-function capabilities as well as awesome processing speed. Great tablet for your money!
This product is great especially when bought with the bluetooth mouse and bluetooth keyboard along with it. It has a great design and works great in terms of speed. I've used it in various ways for different work related purposes including organizing, writing and even video editing remotely from my house computer through my tablet.
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
