The editors didn't like
Frame loss in the UI
Cluttered magazine mode and settings area
Many services don't work in parts of the world
Low benchmark scores
No NFC
S Voice is useless
Colors
I'm really not a fan of the gold trim on these tablets. Now I might be alone here
But that's my opinion
The Back
I would have rathered Samsung stick with the faux leather for the Galaxy Tab S. I think it feels much better in the hand
TL
DR
If
Many apps not optimized for high-res display
Expensive
Mediocre Camera
Though pared down
TouchWiz still runs a heavy hand across Android
It's packed full of so much bundled software from Samsung and third parties that it will likely be confusing for first-time Android users
Samsung's optional cases and snapon design could be improved
GPU and Wi-Fi performance could be better. No word on an Android Lollipop update
Smooth back lacks tactile grip
TouchWiz UI means there's a bit of bloatware in the mix. That same plastic dimpled backing as the Samsung Galaxy S5 (although it does look better on these tablets)
Premium Price
Design language similar to Galaxy S5
Price
Software still not 'there'
SideSync 3.0 supported is limited to a few Galaxy smartphones
Performance dips with processor intensive operations
Uninspiring plastic design
Plastic construction tends to scratch easily
Fingerprint scanner is temperamental
The combination of TouchWiz and Magazine UX can be overwhelming
Abstract: Samsung's been on a downslide lately when it comes to its hardware designs. The nice-looking Galaxy S 4 was followed by the plasticky Galaxy S5 , and while the various Galaxy Note and Galaxy Tab tablets have not been ugly, neither have they been pretty. S...

Abstract: Here's what's good about these devices:• Weight. Weight makes a huge difference in an object you have to hold all the time you're using it. The Samsung tablet is much lighter than the iPad: two-thirds of a pound instead of a whole pound. It's slightly thi...

Abstract: You'll hear a lot of snarky comments about Samsung's "throw everything against the wall and see what sticks" approach to consumer tech products. And perhaps rightfully so. But the flip side to that strategy is that we get to see the latest innovations not...
You won't find a better display in the tablet market, and that includes the iPad Air and iPad mini with Retina. It's great that Samsung is offering two different sizes, too, giving consumers the freedom to choose. If you simply lounge around the house and...
After looking at their pricing, they obviously allude to the fact that they're targeting different users. On one hand, we have the Google Nexus 7's easy-to-swallow $230 super affordable price, which makes it a winner in our books for its minimal impact to...
Though pared down, TouchWiz still runs a heavy hand across Android
Undeniably, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 and its 10.5 inch counterpart are two of the best Android tablets currently on the market. They're fast, thin, light and they have fantastic screens. The Tab S 8.4 particularly stands out with its high pixel densit...
These are not only the best tablets that Samsung has ever released, but they're easily better than any other tablet on the market right now. I personally prefer the 8.4-inch model and highly recommend it, but if you're a larger tablet kind of person, the ...

Samsung hasn't been short on tablet options, but it's always been phones not slates that the company's mobile devision is best known for. The Galaxy Tab S duo follow in the footsteps of the Galaxy Note Pro, distinguishing themselves with unique software...
Abstract: It's easy to look down on Samsung and the tablets it relentlessly churns out. It's practically impossible for anybody but the techiest of tech geeks to remember the tiny differences between them, especially since they all look basically the same. Flooding...
