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

Business travelers, this is your tablet. Though the Tab S didn't come through our labs entirely unscathed, it's still one heck of a tablet. It's not perfect, but it's a slate that paves the way for better things down the line. Truth be told, most issu...
Good looking, Fast and powerful, Great battery life, Superb display
Feels cheap, Bronze not for everyone, Android apps lack behind iOS
The Tab S is the best tablet Samsung has ever made. It’s attractive - even though that bronze trim won’t be for everyone - beautifully thin, light and perfect for Netflix marathons. It still lacks the premium aluminium look and feel of the iPad, but you ...

As with the Galaxy S5, Samsung has crammed in a fingerprint scanner into the Tab S, but it manages to succumb to the same flaws it just doesn't really work. It's hard to use gracefully, and we often found ourselves resorting to typing in our password to u
