The editors didn't like
Keyboard cover not adjustable enough
Intel Core m3 processor means it's not a high performer
Has only a single port — a single USB Type-C port — and there is no USB Type-C to standard USB adapter included
Keyboard isn't backlit
Active stylus not included
Keyboard cover only provides two
Lacks card reader
Flat keyboard
Single configuration
Could be more sturdy in notebook mode
Only 4GB RAM
Only one Type-C port
No integrated LTE option (though one may be coming in the future)
The keyboard is too small
Biometric authentication requires a Galaxy phone
Intel Core m3 processor can't match the performance Core m7 and Core i5 CPUs in competing systems
One port
And it's USB-C with no Thunderbolt compatibility
No bundled USB-C adapter
Lacks a stylus and expansion slots
Not as powerful or configurable as Microsoft's Surface Pro 4
Active stylus costs extra
USB Type-C is the only port
Shallow keyboard
Tablet wobbles in its case
Paltry number of ports
Unreliable case stand
Single USB port
Expensive
AMOLED displays require more TLC to avoid burn in
Keyboard travel and ergonomics not great
Keys feel loose
No included USB Type A-to-USB Type C dongle
Pen technology not yet available for testing
Lone USB TypeC input for charging and accessories
Keyboard travel too shallow
Trackpad is too small
Performance could be better
Only has one USBC port
Only one USB-C port. Smaller left shift key on the keyboard to duplicate the back slash/straight slash key unnecessary
Included keyboard cover feels cheap
Keyboard cover stand magnets are not nearly as secure as they should be
Keyboard cover stand only supports two display angles
No HyperV support in Intel Core m3 CPU
Only one hardware configuration option
No MicroSD
4GB of RAM is not enough
Battery life not as good as advertised
Single USB Type-C port can be limiting
The single configuration is stuck with a sluggish Core M processor
And the keyboard cover allows only two screen angles
Neither of which may be right for you
No microSD card slot
Stylus/pen sold separately
Flipping keyboard behind screen puts device to sleep
The keyboard cover
A crucial part of the package
Is substandard due to its limited angles and cheap construction. USBC can be restrictive. No option to buy a more powerful version.
Included keyboard is cramped
Screen angle isn't adjustable when the tablet is docked
Samsung wisely includes a keyboard cover in the box. Battery life is excellent, and the AMOLED display is better than the screens in much more expensive systems
The single configuration is stuck with a sluggish Core M processor, and the keyboard cover allows only two screen angles, neither of which may be right for you
Samsung builds a lot of value into the Galaxy TabPro S, including a keyboard cover and advanced display in a very slim Windows tablet...
Abstract: Tablets that are just tablets? How very 2015. Following in the well-trodden footsteps of Microsoft's Surface range, Samsung unleashed its own spin on the 2-in-1 Windows 10 detachable at CES 2016 - and the Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro S looks to be a serious con...

I expected slightly more from the global giant that is Samsung. I think next time a little more focus on a better folio keyboard would put the company in better stead. for now, at least.Samsung Galaxy TabPro S 4G LTE $1999 RRPSamsung Galaxy TabPro S...
There's no overstating how incredibly thin this 12-inch tablet is. You could easily mistake it for an Android tablet if it weren't for Microsoft's OS running on the device, Samsung has taken its years of experience developing slates to make a nigh-pristin
There's nothing wrong with the TabPro S alone, but the keyboard base it comes bundled with ends up dragging down the experience of using this 12-inch tablet. It's simply too wobbly, and a trackpad that's a smidge larger would be welcome, In this case, Sam
The Samsung TabPro S has left me smitten. It is, hands down, the best Windows 10 tablet for watching video and reading online. This should come as no surprise considering the company's rich history of Android devices.That said, the keyboard case is a majo...
The TabPro S is undeniably a beautiful and capable piece of hardware and it can be a joy to use. The problem is, it's not a joy to use all the time. The 2-in-1 form factor can work, and we still think that the Surface Pro 4 is the best example of this, th...
Chic looks, Bundledin cover, Windows 10, Samsung Flow
Doesnt have all the ports required, Battery could be better, Intel M processor not v powerful
I love that Samsung pack a robust keyboard cover alongside the tablet and that the TabPro S has a great battery life but then the Core M3 processor isnt the fastest or the smartest and we all know that Windows is not without its issues. However, Samsung...

Enhances design quality for Samsung tablets, slender fan-free design, full Windows 10 operability, bright and colourful screen, battery means a full working day's use (8+ hours), keyboard included
Fussy keyboard/cover only has two stand positions, small trackpad, Intel Core M3 and 4GB RAM lack punch of competitors, no stylus included, price doesn't make it standout against the competition
Overall, Samsung's first bash at a laptop-replacement tablet gets plenty of things right. It runs full Windows 10, lasts for a full working day, has a bright and colourful screen (although it's not class-leading in terms of resolution), and a solid...
Gorgeous display, great design, stellar battery life
Keyboard is awkward to use, performance can be laggy
A good effort that could find success, but it's a shame Samsung didn't spend a bit more time and attention on the details that could have turned this from a good device into a great one...
Gorgeous display, great design, stellar battery life
Keyboard is awkward to use, performance can be laggy
There's a lot to like about the Samsung Galaxy TabPro S. The AMOLED display is one of the best we've used, the design is premium and the battery lives up to Samsung's big claims.It's not without its downsides, however, as the keyboard add-on is pretty sho...
