This is one of the best tablets I've ever owned. From the build quality to Android functionality, it's great. The tablet is incredibly thin and lightweight but doesn't feel cheaply made. The 4.3 aspect ratio of the screen is great for anyone considering transitioning from an iPad. The power, volume, and home buttons are easy to press. The back of the tablet is slightly rubberized to that it doesn't slip out of your hands. The screen bezel is very thin so the display area is maximized. The screen itself is great. Very bright, produces vivid colors, and is great for watching HD videos on NetFlix or YouTube. Game play is good as well. The octa-core Exynos processor seems to be handling games (Asphalt 8 and Carrier Landings Pro) just fine. Android Marshmallow (v.6) runs very smooth with no lag. Android 6 supports multi tasking through split screen but not all apps are supported. I usually root my tablets and install custom firmware, but this table runs Android M so well there really isn't any need. I've been running the tablet for about 2 months now and I haven't run into any app force close issues. If you're looking for a tablet that is fast, stable, thin, and lightweight, the Samsung Tab S2 fits the bill.

We purchased this tablet to go to Alaska and keep a journal and take additional pictures. With limited internet we didn't want to take our laptop and drag that along. I purchased the separated keyboard to use when we were not on the road. The size and weight of the tablet was great. The keyboard worked great at night or when you had extra space to type. Camera on tablet took good pictures up close or mid distance, but you lost clarity when you tried to fully zoom.

Customers consistently note the Galaxy Tab S2 8" 32GB's excellent screen size, ease of use, and light weight as significant advantages. Positive feedback also highlights its battery life and performance, although some users mention concerns about the device's tendency to get warm and the sound quality of its speakers. The price point was also cited as a potential drawback by a few customers. While some experienced Wi-Fi connectivity issues, the overall user experience appears largely positive.
