    I have both Android and Apple phones but all my tablets have been iPads, I wanted to get a Android tablet and decided on the Galaxy Tab S2 8.0. I like everything about it but the battery life, it is just terrible, even thou it has App optimization it is still get a third of the battery life as my iPad mini did. I don't use it very much and just in standby mode it will be completely dead in 3 days.

    Bought this as a gift for my wife and she loves it. While it's not synced with her phone service, usage during Wi-Fi is excellent. Screen resolution/graphics is unmatched.

    Its a S2 but with the new S3 specs

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

    If you buy the S2 8.0 from Best Buy check the specs on the back of the box. If its says " 1.8 GHz + 1.4 GHz Core Processor" it is really just a 2016 S3 that is coming out in July. I just got one and did a search and mine has the specs and operating system of the S3 which runs Android 6.0. The S2 should be running Android 5.0. I think Samsung just branded these remaing S2 with S3 parts and OS system.

    CANNOT EASILY SAVE PDFS TO DRIVE

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

    I purchased the new tab S2 from Best Buy which has the same operating system as the new cell phones. I can't save emails, web pages or any other info as a pdf to my Google dive without taking 3-4 additional steps. I am offered a PDF option, but that option saves automatically to my tablet, and gives me no opportunity to name the pdf or to direct the location of where the file is to be saved. Instead, thr Tab automaticallly saves to MY Files, then I have to to My Files, then pull up the pdf, then share to my drive, then go to my drive to refile into the correct location and rename. Filing is something every business person and student and parent needs, so how this could have been eradicated from the new Samsung technology makes no sense.

    The tablet is AWEWOME but this model is WI-FI ONLY. The specs and description does NOT state anywhere that you cannot connect to any data plan. It is WI-FI only. I would never have bought this item had I known that. Buyer beware.

    DO NOT BUY

    Purchased what I thought was a new in the box item. I set it up and the tablet stopped working the following night. Contacted Samsung because I was 8 hours away from the nearest best buy. Mailed the device in and it will be and additional $200 to fix the device because BEST BUY sole me a "rooted" item. I don't even know that that mean?
