    I purchased this tablet to work with Phantom 4 drone controller software and have had no issues. The latest model did not.

    Problems

    I didn't do my homework before purchasing this product. I have two issues with the tablet and Best Buy has not been able to repair either one. The battery only lasts about 4 hours. I've tried turning off programs to save battery, I've turned down the brightness, nothing has given me more than 4 hours of battery life. The second problem I have is that it will not stay connected to the Internet. It constantly disconnects, the wheel spins and I wait. It will connect back again and 5 minutes later disconnect. I have had the tablet 28 days. I have taken it into Best Buy, the first thing the Geek Squad technician tells me is "you have had it longer than 15 days, you can't return it". I didn't even say anything about returning it, I wanted it fixed. He then sends me to the Samsung desk to have the tablet "flashed". The Samsung desk didn't have the program to "flash" my tablet and they told me to come back the next day. I went back, had the tablet 'flashed", didn't resolve the problem. I'm going back for the third time Monday and attempt to resolve the two problems I have.

    Samsung generally makes excellent electronic devices. I have had a purchase of 3 of their Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Editions which were amazing devices. It wasn't but a year that had passed and the batteries were already junk. I replaced the batteries and sold them to a second hand store. Not happy.

    Great Tablet

    I've had my tablet for just over a week and I really like it. We researched a lot of different tablets before purchasing the Galaxy Tab S2 8" and I am really pleased with our decision. It is lightning fast, I can try to pull something up on my laptop, my phone and this tablet and it gets there quicker every time. I am a long time Samsung Smart Phone user so it was very easy to pick up the tablet and go. I have side synced so I can actually control my phone from my tablet as well as complete work on my tablet and transfer it to my phone to e-mail. I've streamed a few shows on Amazon Prime and the picture was outstanding, had a bit of trouble with Netflix #it was quivering#, but my son was able to fix it for me. I've also worked in Word and viewed Excel documents and it's so much nicer to read than on my phone. This is my second and now favorite tablet.
