    This is the Tablet you are looking for..

    I've owned a Nexus 7 / Galaxy Tab S / Nexus 9. Don't be fooled by the hype of having the Nexus to get "pure" Android is my advice. The Tab S and the S2 were by far my personal favorites. Clean interface and they do what you want. That being said the S2 is incredibly fast and smooth. The screen beauty is a given with Samsung. You also get light and thin thrown in. Will have this one for a long time.

    Samsung Galaxy Tab S2

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 has bright and vividly colorful AMOLED screen. Its thin design is comfortable. It comes with 32GB of storage, and a microSD card expansion slot. Battery life is long. The flagship Samsung tablet are always a quality buy. The Cons: It's preloaded with Samsung's bloatware. Easy fix though, just install the Google Now launcher and you have a closer stock android look.

    My New Favorite Tablet !!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This little tablet is fantastic and so much fun to use. First of all, it's so light that I can use it for hours and my hand or arm doesn't get worn out ! It doesn't feel like a "brick" in my purse either. I have 7 tablets and even though they all have a purpose, this is definitely going to be used more than the others !

    Amazing Screen, fast processor, bad battery life

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This would be a perfect 5 starts, but very short battery life keeps it from getting there. Repalced the last years model with this new one. Processor is much faster, screen looks absolutely beautiful! This is the perfect device for watching movies. New model fixed an annoying problem with last Tab S, it was too easy to intermittently hit the android buttons when just holding the device. Much better now. Also a thinner model and much better overall dimensions make the device great to hold. Very happy, just wish the battery life were better, can hardly travel internationally without recharging during flight.

    Quality Tablet

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    If your intention is to consume and deliver media you cannot go wrong. I am using this tablet to download and stream content along with taking photographs for work related purposes as a mobile scanner. The option to insert (up to) a 128 GB memory card is incredible I am blown away with the space and content I am able to store. If you are deciding between this and an iPad and have the same needs that I mentioned get the Tab S2 (in either the 8.0 or 9.7) you can not go wrong. The only small gripe comes with the physical portion, my tablet bleeds some light from the capacitive home buttons I would recommend getting a good case. There aren't many good none Samsung cases out there since the tablet has built in laches for their own products but an incipio folio case is available for purchase in both sizes. You will not be disappointed this is an incredible tablet.

    I will be as straight to the point as possible. This is top of the line item! Hands down better than the "fruit brand". You can make so much things on an android tablet, that just the other brand won't be able too. This tablet is fast, image is outstanding, size is superb..... Yes, this is a table to have an take advance of all it's features.

    Tablet shock!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I, originally, was planning to buy my wife a surprise, and a tablet was something she'd been talking about. She's a "Visuals" Mgr. for one of the larger Macy's stores. She'd been trying to get by, and was using her iPhone 6 to take 'display' pictures and store job related documents. My original intention was to get her one of the new iPads, but while walking by the Samsung display, the new Galaxy S2 caught my eye. After going over its features, brilliant screen, and beautiful aesthetics, I quickly forgot all about the iPad. So much more bang for the buck. And, most importantly, my wife loves it and the great job it does.

    incredible, the battery runs down so fast that if you buy one of these devices you will need an extra long extension cord to keep it powered up wherever you go. My recommendation is not to buy one. I cannot Believe that same song over the years has not improved their battery life at all!

    Excellent display and performance

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I upgraded from a Galaxy Tab2 to this Galaxy Tab S2. Visibility of the screen in outdoor bright sunlight is very good. I am impressed with the Tab S2 performance. My Tab S2 will replace a laptop, netbook and older tablet. The tab S2 8.0" size makes it very portable. Samsung and Best Buy service was excellent.

    Best Android tablet

    The TabS 8.0 is a sheer joy to use. The screen is perfect both in display and in the 8" size firm factor. The tablet is amazing to hold too, so thin snd light. No fatigue, ever, when holding it to watch movies or read a book. Performance is so responsive. No lag. No jank. Overall, this is, in my opinion, the best Android tablet that you can buy.

    Just What He Wanted

    I bought this for my son after the one I ordered from Dell as his Christmas gift did not allow him to use Google Play. He says it is exactly what he wanted and it is so much better than playing games on his phone. It stays charged much longer than his phone and the graphics are great.

    No buyers remorse here.This tablet is extremely smooth. Almost bought the s 8.4 but went with this one instead.Love the multi window.Watched a movie and the 4:3 ratio is excellent.The 32 gigs of internal memory is fine for me,and there 's always the memory card slot

    Disappointed and frustrated

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this 10/10. It worked great for a week, then would arbitrarily reboot. I cleared cache and it worked OK for a while. After another couple of weeks, it entered a reset loop that I couldn't clear. After restoring to factory AND charging all night, I was able to get it to run for about another week. Last week, it started resetting again and nothing I can do will fix it. After restoring factory defaults, it resets when during the initial setup and configuration. Hopefully, Samsung will fix this quickly since it is too late to return it to BB. Each reset costs me all data and photos. This is turning into a really expensive paperweight.
