    Excellent Tablet For The Money

    I have the original Tab S 7.4 - I was looking for something larger and like the 4:3 layout more for everyday viewing. Response times are great - screen is on par with any retina display on the market today plus you get the added benefits of expanded memory. It helps to have a Samsung ecosystem to take advantage of the integration but I wouldn't let that stop you from getting this if you're looking for a high-end tablet that will not go outdated anytime soon.

    I had an iPad 2 that for a long time and with all the updates that Apple has to out date your product it became useless for business. So, having switched over to a Galaxy phone I went with an S2 tablet. It has a great screen and is super fast. It is taking me a little while to get use too, but, I am very happy with the purchase. I really like the expandable storage and with CM security in place it has been running like a top!

    I bought this tablet almost on a whim. It comes stocked with Google's Lollypop which runs just a tad differently on the tablet than on a cell phone. The silliest, is the overly huge size of the keyboard when in landscape. The screen! Oh my! So beautiful! I watch Amazon, Netflix, and HBO in utter delight. It's clearer and stutter-free compared to a PC on the same net. And beautiful. Battery life is beyond reproach. Boot time is marvelously fast; (I've several hundred apps) . My wishes: (1) that the home key and soft keys be user programmable. I, for one, would like them to mimic their cell phone counterparts. (2) that optionally, when the unit is shut off, after a user specified amount of time, the unit power off. If you're looking for a tablet, you can find none better.

    Although I have purchased other Samsung products before, the latest Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 just take it to the next level for me. The ease of use and the clarity of the pictures and videos I've taken are superb. Also, it is even lighter than my previous 8.0 note tablet. I choose the gold color and the matching gold folio and was surprised of its cool appearance. Overall, I'm one happy customer.

    I decided to research a few tablets and purchase one that suits me most. I needed a tablet that is reliable, not too bulky, one with a good amount of memory and of course it had to have a nice screen and excellent overall appearance. After looking at a couple of tablets, including the new iPad, I decided to purchase the Samsung Tab S2. I felt that it is a solid tablet with an excellent AMOLED screen. It has more than enough space for me to store apps, photos, etc. I have used it for a couple of weeks now and I have to say that I would highly recommend this tablet for anyone.

    As Samsung says, this is the lightest and thinnest tablet on the market and it's a joy to use. Even with those features in mind there are no compromises with power and features. The screen is stellar with clear and sharp colors, the speed is smooth and fast. It's a bit pricier than other Android tablets but the experience is far better than the cheaper one's out there.

    We had a Galaxy note tablet, purchased many years ago, which was pretty much out of date. We are very happy with Samsung and the Android operating system and decided to look into another tablet. The S2 9.7 looked good and we bought it after considering other tablets in the Samsung line. It is a good size, not too small or large and it is thin and light weight. It has good stats and is very fast. You get a great tablet for the money. Another plus is the Samsung station within Best Buy to help with any questions or concerns you may have.

    I switched from the Google Nexus 9 to the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 and have thoroughly enjoyed it! Love the 9.7" screen ratio, tablet is reasonably light compared to other tablet with the same screen size & battery life is great. Speaker could be louder, and price could also be lower but besides that my overall experience with this tablet has been great.. I have always been a fan of the 8" tabs but seeing how light this tablet felt in the hand I opted for a larger screen and don't regret it.

    I got this for my Birthday as a replacement for a very old Nook Color. This tablet is sooo very much more than a bookreader!! It has pretty much replaced my computer and I LOVE the fact that is is so very versitile, making it possible to not only do MS Word functions , but also chat live with my sister in Texas!! I have plenty of storage and can still play my solitaire at night in bed! MOST OF ALL, I LOVE all the fantastic extras and the excellent speed & display!!!

    This is the best tablet I have ever had, and I have had many. It is lightning fast, with amazing screen quality and graphics. It runs every app perfectly, and has never frozen up or even lagged. The best part is that this amazing tablet is incredibly light! I put it in my bag and barely even know it is there. The Microsoft Office package is nice, I haven't done much more than open those, but it is nice to have them available. Overall, this tablet is amazing.

    Needed a bigger screen than my 7" as my eyesight isn't what it used to be, this one fits the bill. The viewing area is great for reading and gaming, and the graphics are beautiful. It was easy to set up, easy to integrate with all my accounts and quick to get up and running. I appreciate that it has a built-in users manual in the settings. Good upgrade for me.

    I have that tablet for a month now - it fills exactly my needs: I can read, browse, play without any cramps in my hand since it is so light. Battery is plenty, I was never stopped in my usage because it was empty. I find it very fast also: I never saw it slow down. Only issue is I could not get the nest app to work -but that's more an android/google issue. Too bad they don't offer an option to run windows on it.

    I purchased this tablet to replace a second generation iPad. It is very fast and has great screen resolution. Compared to the iPad, I like that the Samsung tablet has expandable memory and is much lighter. Overall, I'm very pleased with this purchase.

    I never was interested in having a tablet but decided to look into getting one in place of having my laptop. I love it! Very quick, pretty, super light body and serves all the needs I was looking for. The camera isn't anything to get excited about but it's good enough to do video chats. Screen quality is excellent when watching videos, and it's just very fun to tap around on.

    upgrade from Samsung Galaxy tab 3 10.1

    This is my 3rd Galaxy in 3 years. I upgrade each year. I find this model, which is slightly smaller, thinner, and easier to carry, is more useful to me and seems quite a bit faster in processing inputs. I also haven't needed to use a pen input device. The screen is much more sensitive and responsive to just a finger input. One less item to carry.

    First off this tablet is incredibly light and looks great. I love how I can multitask with this tablet because it is so smooth and fast it makes it enjoyable. Not to mention the screen resolution is one-of-a-kind. I've never seen graphics this high DEF before on a tablet.

    I admit I was a bit skeptical at first, because I had brought a Samsung Tab 3 from Amazon and it was a nightmare. So, I did make a complaint and I would not suggest to buy electronic from Amazon. I did go to Best Bu and the sales person was real with me and told me it is a good tablet; even though I did check reviews beforehand. It did get great reviews. So, I did purchase it and let me tell you. I am a huge fan of this tablet and it is really good for work and even school. The picture quality is outstanding and the speed is amazing. I brought it for work and I will use it for a long time.I even got it for a great deal around this past Christmas. It is also a good investment. Don't get an tablets from Amazon. Bad Experience. This is why I I would genuinely suggest to get it at Best Buy,because the do have a protection plan and they are glad to replace or let you exchange any of their electronic products.
