Is the Galaxy Tab S Samsung's best tablet ever?

In a post published today via one of its official blogs, Samsung states that the Galaxy Tab S is its “best tablet yet.” Of course, both the 8.4-inch and 10.5-inch models are included here - as most of their features are identical, the main difference between them being the screen size.

Samsung’s excitement regarding the new series of tablets shouldn’t surprise anyone. The two Tab S models offer Super AMOLED displays with 1,600 x 2,560 pixels and 100,000:1 contrast ratio - arguably the best displays ever featured on tablets.

Usually, Super AMOLED screens produce oversaturated colors, but the Galaxy Tab S series offers several viewing modes, including cinema, photo and basic, with the last one providing close to natural colors.

The Galaxy Tab S comes with a lot of tablet-optimized content, as well as features like Multi User Mode, fingerprint scanner, and SideSync 3.0 (which allows you to take calls directly on the tablet). Android KitKat, Exynos 5 Octa 5420 processor, 8MP rear camera, 3GB of RAM and expandable internal memory are other notable features.
