Good Tablet for Daily Use
Phone owned for less than a year

Bought this tablet for $393 from my friend that only took the bonus in Pre-Order time, I found out that this tablet is very light and very comfortable to use in daily basis.

Too bad Samsung not launch Tab S2 with a S Pen which I believe will be a very good and game changing feature on Tab S2.

From the specification, this tablet not really much different from the predecessor; only a small upgrade and change in dimension to be more like an ipad mini for me.
