Tablet is another great product from Samsung, all and all a great camera, screen, fast processor etc.. Just should be about $50 cheaper (which it is sometimes) as $349 is a bit too much.

This is a very good tablet, but I don't think it's worth the $400 selling price. I actually got it on sale for $250, and even that seems like a bit too much for a tablet of this size. It's nice and thin and lightweight though, which I like. It's also fairly fast and the battery life is decent. The screen is nice too, but websites can be a little hard to read at times. The text isn't pixelated like it is on the Tab A models, it's just rather thin. It would probably be a lot easier to read things on the 9.7 model, but that was way too expensive! I'd recommend this only if you can get it on sale, definitely not at full price.

Pros:
- Easy to configure - settings are pretty straightforward
- Fast processor
- Display resolution is great; Sharp and crisp colors
- Can split screen to see two apps at same time - this is one of the features I looked forward to when getting this tablet and I love it.
- Device Maintenance offers power saving options
- Lighter and more compact, compared to iPad Mini 2
Cons
- no real cons, if you setup power saving mode in Device Maintenance. I use my S2 very often in web browser at moment, so it's hard to tell if battery drains faster than iPad Mini 2 or not (and the iPad battery drains slowly). I have not been able to set up a side by side test yet.

My First Android Tablet

I recently switched to Android products after being a fan of the "other" company for years. I now have an android phone and this tablet was my first Android tablet and I love it. I was worried about learning a new operating system but my fears were easily waylaid after just a few days with this tablet. The eight inch screen is just right for me and is crystal clear and bright. It's also very light and easy to handle. It works like a charm and I've had no problems with it. I only get about two days of battery life out of it which is a lot less than my old tablet from the "other" company but then I'm almost constantly using it so it was to be expected. The best thing about a Samsung tablet (as well as their phone) is the fact that even though the internal memory isn't that big (32 or 64 GB), you can add a large capacity MicroSD card that increases the memory greatly. This is much cheaper than paying an extra $100 for every step up in memory with the products from the "other" company. It also makes the tablets and phones cheaper in price. I'm just sorry I waited so long to wise up and go the Android route.

This is my second Galaxy Tab, purchased because my Tab 4 was slowing down after 3 years of constant use. The improved screen resolution on this Tab S2 is great and I like the brightness auto-adjust feature, since I often use the tablet outside. I also appreciate the fast processor.
I preferred watching videos on the Tab 4 because of its screen shape, but I am sure I will adapt to watching on this new tablet, especially since the black frame blends in with the letterbox formatting.
It does get warm on the right side, as some other reviewers have noted, but the only time it got hot was during an update from Marsmallow to Nougat version.

I shopped many tablets. The Fire 8 was on my list but realized that it didn't do Google Play. I decided to upgrade to this Galaxy Tab S2 and am so glad I did. I use it for games, surfing, social media, reading, netflix, and my google play apps. The screen resolution is stunning. Watching Lost in Space right now and it's like I'm watching it on my 4K UHD tv. It's super fast, easy to use and is the best tablet that I've owned so far. I highly recommend.

I have had the tablet for a few weeks now. I love the clarity of the screen. I love the light weight. It is big enough to watch and enjoy a movie and small enough to fit in a purse or bag. The gold border is the best part as it gives a frame around the border of games and movies. The battery lasts around 5 hours which is not long for some people but just fine for me. I put a 128 gb card in which added to the 32 gb giving 160 gb memory. It is fast and has loads of storage.

I purchased this only because my beloved Google Nexus tablet developed a shortage in the charging port. This is my first time purchasing a Samsung product. I'm a LG loyalist but few options for tablets led me to look at Samsung. I use my tablet for entertainment purposes only. So far so good. Easy to get started, battery is holding a great charge and easy to upload my apps from former device. I love the gold color and I am thrilled with storage capacity. I've only had it for less than a week, but I'm pleased so far with the product. I studied reviews for months before purchasing to see if any negative ones were submitted. When it went on sale I purchased it. I would not spend regular price on an item I only used for entertainment.

I had my original galaxy for 1 year and it was stolen. I was going to upgrade but when I compared the 8” to the 10.2” screen I decided to stick with the 8 screen because of weight and price.

I bought this tablet to replace an old iPad mini. The resolution is so so clear and the response time is awesome....so fast. Love it. The smaller mini size is perfect for me, because it fits nicely in a purse and is not too heavy when reading for hours. Setup was so easy as it it copied all my apps, settings, and even Wi-Fi passwords automatically from my android phone. I found this tablet easier to use than the iPad.

comparing the old Tab S2 (SM-T810) to the new Tab S2 (SM-T813). I have both the old an new versions with me, both with 64GB of internal storage, and I am comparing them side by side. This comparison is also applicable for the T710 and T713 versions, and for the 32GB versions,
PHYSICAL DIFFERENCES
External appearance -- no difference between the old T810 and the new T-813 in physical dimensions, weight, appearance, or function.
Internal processor - old T810 runs on Exynos chip set, while the new T813 runs on Snapdragon chip set.
OS - old T810 runs on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop, while the new T813 runs on Android 6.01.
