Best So Far

Phone owned for less than 3 months

After having had the Samsung Tab Pro 8.4, the iPad Air, and the Note 10.1 (2014 ), this is my favorite series of tablets. I realy didn't want to put it down and played with this tablet quite a few times before I just had to go in and buy it. I draw a lot on it, and the app hasn't crashed yet. We're talking Layer Paint and Sketchbook Pro with many layers, and still, I can keep drawing with little to no lag.

Display awesome, web browsing bla...

Phone owned for less than a year

Display and media consumption is off the charts. Simply gorgeous. The UI is fine, no issues. The web browsing is a disaster. I have narrowed it down to processor and GPU. I have tried multiple browsers, and its choppy borderline unusable. However if you turn off Java script in any of the browser settings all is perfect. The same tab with the S800 processor and the adreno 320 is flawless. It appears to me the Samsung's Octocore with the Mali GPU is the issue.

I'm using it.

Phone owned for less than a month

I've just got it this month, and I think I'm satisfied. I have just complaint with batter life. It consumes battery in few hours. However I like it, it's slim and smart.... It's better than other brands...

Great for multimedia, browsing and study/work.

Phone owned for less than 3 months

I use my tablet primarily for viewing and editing pdfs and word documents, as well as browsing the Internet and reading articles and viewing videos and pictures. The Tab S is more than capable of handling these tasks in a quick and easy to use manner.

The play store has a wide range of open office software which run very smoothly on this tablet. The YouTube app also runs perfectly on the tablet, I haven't encountered any problems with it. Some reviewers of Android products complain about them not having as many good apps as iOS, everything I've needed I've found in a free or lite version. That said, I don't use my tablet for gaming so the situation may be different for people looking to play games on their device.

As aways, the home screen is customisable, allowing the user to select the apps and widgets that they want there. The expandable storage is a very important feature, especially when comparing to the main rival, the ipad air 2, which will cost a hundred euro more for the 64GB model versus the 16GB model in Ireland. For comparison, I bought a Samsung Evo 32 GB micro SD for less than €20 on Amazon. The user replaceable battery also allows the user to lengthen the life of the tablet without the cost and hassle of sending it to the manufacturer for a new battery.

Strong Media Playback Tablet

Phone owned for less than 3 months

Boasting possibly the best screen in the tablet market to date, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S is a sight to behold. It's 10.5 inch Super AMOLED 2k screen does not entirely make up for the out-of-the-box laggy UX, but by installing a third party launcher this issue can be resolved. Android may still lack some of the apps found on iOs or the snappy WP UI, but its getting there. This great flagship tablet is definitely a viable option to consider in the mid-high range tablet market. Also advisable to purchase a 64 or 128 GB storage expansion as the 16 or 32 GB on-board storage will quickly run, filled by Music, Films and Games.

A great multimedia tablet

Phone owned for less than a month

Extremely good display, let down by a laggy chipset and a very heavy touchwiz skin.
After about a month of owning the tablet, I am more or less satisfied with the whole experience. What I'm confused about is, why samsung went for using an exynos chipset(Exynos 5420 octa from 2013) instead of snapdragon 801 on a flagship tablet.
plus the touchwiz skin is a RAM and CPU hog. the UI lag is noticeable most of the times.
