    The tablet has wonderful performance and connectivity supporting 2.4GHz and 5Ghz 802.11n and ac networks. The screen is easy to read with a very clear image. The tablet itself is extremely light, even surprisingly so. MHL support would be a great feature which this tablet lacks, showing Samsung has not yet learned to move away from everything being wireless. Would like a larger battery capacity / battery life but it is very adequate and the fast charging minimizes downtime.

    First time pad owner. Not much I can say, really love this Samsung - Galaxy Tab S2 - 9.7 - 64gb - Black. Hardly ever use my lap tops at home. Battery life is excellent. I have added 128GB storage card. Performance is very good. I was considering MS SURFACE 4, but I'm glad that I have taking it back. Pad has a lot more apps available and Kindle works fine for all of my books. I'm very pleased with Samsung - Galaxy Tab S2 - 9.7 and its very good compliment to my S6 phone.

    This is my 4th tablet, 3 Android and 1 Windows. This is by far the most satisfied I have been with any tablet. It is extremely fast, has great graphics, and is the perfect size for my wife and me. We watch a lot of videos and this tablet plays them all without any delays. Games also play extremely well. I would recommend this tablet for anyone from beginner to advanced user.

    I had been wanting to replace a Dell 8" tablet I had been using, which was no longer being supported or updated by Dell & was starting to have some issues. I had decided I wanted a larger tablet that would be supported & updated on a regular basis. After doing a lot of research, I decided this tablet was the one I wanted. I had seen it at the store, but was waiting for a better price, since the 64GB model was a little expensive. I had seen that it was $100 off online, but waited a while. I had also been looking at the Logitech keyboard case for this tablet & it went on sale as well. I decided the time was right. I have been totally happy with this tablet, especially in combination with the keyboard case. I have long fingers & can hold the tablet without the case in one hand if I want to, though I seldom do. I usually have it right next to me in the case (which I reviewed separately). The tablet is quick & has a great display. It recharges reasonably quick, from 40% to 50% it takes under 3 hours to charge. I just make sure I plug it in after I get home from work & it is always charged by the time I go to bed.. This is good enough for me. I use this mostly for Twitter, Facebook & Email, but it has worked well for many other apps as well.

    I was getting really fed up lugging my laptop around during my frequent trips overseas, and found this tablet to be the perfect replacement! It can do everything I need to do while traveling, while reducing the weight and size by about a factor of 4.. I was able to use MS Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. I was even able to edit LaTeX files, and compile them over the cloud! This tablet is really fast and powerful. The screen is absolutely beautiful. I am very glad I got this table - it is making the ordeal of traveling a lot more bearable.

    Very capable tab

    Purchased this to replace my Verizon Ellipsis. Decision to buy was based on two things, found that there was an updated hardware version released in June of 2016 and sale price, these two together made it an easy choice. This also forced me into a 10" tab, when I really prefer the smaller book size 8". The 10" was cheaper because of the sale, I'm dealing with the size change, but will likely return to 8" in the future. This tablet has been nothing but a joy since I purchased it. It is fast, easy to use, and has plenty of memory. Battery life has been spectacular in the first 3 months. I was disappointed that there wasn't an LTE model, however saving me $20/month in service provider fees while only having to use my phones hot spot feature occasionally has not made me regret the purchase. 4/5 stars because the auto-brightness feature is slightly annoying. Sometimes quick shifts in light (like going under a bridge on the train) causes the screen to flicker. Other times, its to slow to change causing it to be to bright or to dark.

    Awesom Tablet

    I previously had a 2nd generation Kindle Fire that was starting to struggle with resources. As much as I use a tablet, it was time for a high end replacement with speed and plenty of storage. I chose the 64GB internal version to have plenty of room onboard expecting the expandable memory to be slower to access. If you are looking to invest in a device to use for years to come, this is it!! I use a lot of apps/tools on my tablet from network diagnostics to remote control of other devices). This tablet does not disappoint. There is plenty of room to expand after loading up my tools and I expect the hardware to keep up with the kernel and application updates for some time to come. If you are a casual user, you may not need this beast, but it will not disappoint the techies out there. I love the features the hardware provides and if you have a Samsung TV, the wireless sync to share your phone/tablet screen is great. I am still exploring and have not used the camera except to glance at it. To bad it does not shrink down to fit in a pocket, but then, that's what my phone is for.

    The quality of the screen is so clear and crisp, it is so fast, the camera is incredible. I love it. If I have one negative thing to say, I have found some apps I liked on the previous version of android, are not available for this version, but I am waiting for "their" updates. .

    Throw away your big desktops when you take this tablet home. Fast, powerful and holds everything you put in it. I added a 128gb Micro SD Awesome screen; can even see it outside on a sunny day. Good sound, nice camera and includes MS Office for work. Never used anything better.

    Samsung S2 9.7 A Odd Bird

    Although Best Buy currently sells the Samsung S2 9.7 in the stores, the accessories for this table are pretty much non existent at the store level. I like the bigger display and in in a louder environment, the audio is decent. A few stuck pixels here and there were massaged out, but time will tell. The 9.7" screen screams break me, so a screen protector is definitely a required accessory as is a protective case. Since these tablets and the glass display are super smooth, you definitely need a case to protect the tablet, but once again, other than "universal" cases, you wont find anything Samsung specific.

    I have had iPads until I could no longer play flash videos on them. This thing is faster and better than the iPad Air 2. Leave it to Apple to cut more roads off trying to force everyone to their standards. This is going to cause a lot of loss to their customer base. Good job Samsung on making such a great replacement.

    Debating over making the switch to from Apple to this. While Apple may be simpler to use, the functionality of this tablet far outweighs anything Apple can bring to bear. Lightweight, thin, fast, and lots of expandable storage. One of my best buys this year for sure.

    After my last trip I realized I didn't want to drag a laptop around on vacation. I was looking at getting a nexus 9 but it appears they were disconitued. So after reading many reviews i settled on the Samsung - Galaxy Tab S2 - 9.7 - 64gb. It seems to play games well although the MMO i play framerate drops if i try to do any pvp but it works great for farming. It is super light i think my case is heavier than it. I also brought a holder to attach it to the front seat of the car so my 18 month old can watch cartoons on long trip we took to the beach. Overall I'm very happy with the purchase and would buy it again. I got it on sale so it was a great deal as well. If it's not on sale i would wait untill the S3 comes out if it hasn't already.

    My wife has an older Ipad that needed replacing. She had been using my Samsung tablet and liked it, but wanted something larger to watch movies and shows on when she travels. I saw the Samsung S2 9.7 on sale and ordered it for her. She absolutely loves it. Her only complaint is that she always forgets to charge it.

    Very nice. Love the larger screen. I actually purchased this for my husband for Christmas so I opened it when I received it, set it up and charged so it will be ready Christmas morning! So I did start to mess around with it for about an hour or two. I am excited to see his reaction!!

    The only 64GB Tablet now.

    If you want higher storage for those pesky updates this is the tablet to get. My wife has the Sammy 9.7 Tab A 16GB and she ran out of room after the constant app updates that are so bloated now, even with moving her games to SD card she ran out of space. This one enables her to stay at around 24GB internal used space, plus it has 3GB Ram and a faster CPU than the Tab A and the form factor is more like the iPad for easier reading. She loves this! Buy them while you can. They only make 32GB tabs now.
