I have had an Ipad2 for many years, so this review is sort of a comparison. As in, it's not my first tablet. I love it. It's lightweight and great for travel. There are a ton of great apps. I haven't missed anything that I had on my ipad. There are more apps than you can get through apple. The customizable screen allows for all sorts of icons, folders and widgets. It was pretty easy to set up. I love having the weather widget on the front page. It's nice to be able to glance at pertinent information without having to open an app. There is also a widget that is like a little personal assistant. It shows me what is on my calendar for today and tomorrow and a bit of the top news. Wonderful! The 10" screen is good for watching videos. The only downside I have there is that they only had white in the store and having black around the screen makes for better viewing. The videos themselves play lovely. I was able to download RealPlayer app for free and use that to stream videos to Chromecast on my tv. I love how customizable storage is. You aren't just stuck with what the company gives you. There is a microSD slot that I installed a 32gb microSD card in. I can watch movies directly from the card. It took less than a minute to install! Also you can buy a USB connector that goes into the power jack and watch movies off of a USB or transfer files around. So if you are a traveler looking to store a lot of movies or photos, this is just great. If you get the connector all you need to do is buy a USB flash drive whenever you need more space. The only download I found, which isn't much of one, is that the battery life isn't as long as I was used to. Whatever they quoted in the store was a high estimate when you are watching movies. I'm sure I can get more out of it if I research which video player apps use the least battery. I bought a travel charger battery for long trips if I need to charge it when I don't have an outlet nearby. Luckily a lot of newer airplanes have outlets in the seats! I travel a lot so this tablet is great for that. I can't speak to it if you are using it for business as I mainly use it for entertainment. Get yourself the USB adapter!

I recently purchased this tablet for home and personal use. I use it to access email, stream movies, read my e books, and check and review my business documents. It was on sale when I purchased it and the gentleman at the Samsung station within best buy took the time to review all the features and he even setup the tablet for me to use immediately after leaving the store. It has wi fi cabability and memory can be expanded with an optional SD card. The screen has better quality than the Samsung note. I opted for this tablet since I do not rely heavily on stylus base applications such as One Note. I enjoy its ease of use, screen quality, volume, and expansion capability. I wish it had a USB connection, but for $20 you can buy an available usb adapter that functions in the same manner. The tablet operates has wonderful performance speed. Love the 10 inch screen size, not too big, not too small.
