  • I give the camera a barely passing grade. Apple doesn't need to worry about losing it's top Flickr status to this guy. Battery life has been solid. I can make it through my average day (about 18 hours) and have maybe 5-10% left depending on how much th...

  • Exceptional display quality, Great performance, S Pen has a lot of potential
  • Awkward size, S Pen a tad unresponsive, microSD slot is hidden under the battery

  • The Note 8.0 is one of the best Android tablets on the market, but it's difficult to recommend over the cheaper and in many ways superior iPad mini, based on the latter's app selection alone.If you're a fan of the S Pen for note-taking or sketching, this...
