Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the Galaxy Tab S3's impressive screen quality, ease of use, and long battery life as significant strengths. The included S Pen and lightweight design also receive considerable praise. However, some customers find the price to be a drawback, and a few express concern about the limited storage capacity. Overall, the positive feedback on key features outweighs the negative comments.

    So far, I'm blown away by the performance and features of the Galaxy Tab S3. The overall design of the tablet is beautiful and it is very light for a full size tablet. The screen resolution and sound are the best I've seen or heard on a tablet. The Tab S3 is quick and powerful and is as functional as my Mac and way more entertaining and convenient.

    Went looking for the 128gb Internal memory (announced on the Bestbuy website), I was told that the 128b does not exist (i'm still doubting that), eventually bought this one and I had to buy a 128gb Microcard. wanted the Keyboard and stand... could not find one, had to buy one separately on another company... Pretty good machine, good quality screen and sound. I wanted the one with the S-Pen, pitty it does not come with a pouch for the pen, since there is no slot to store the pen.

    I had a Samsung tablet before and wanted another one. I saw the display in the store and liked the picture and liked the weight. Only con to me is it seems slower than my older one and has to catch up sometimes.

    I have been a regular tablet user for many years. The only one that stands up to my use is Samsung Tab S series. Over all a balanced tablet. the major upgrades from Tab2 are : Faster charging and better battery life. Cant say how much I like that my Tablet now charges as fast as my phone. More speakers. Not the major reason to buy a tablet but i really noticed the difference with the sound. It is not loud but much better quality and more than one speaker. Faster processor. This goes for any new Tablet in a series but they really did better on the control of resources on this one. Over all, I am glad to upgrade. My old Tab 2 just would not charge fast emough for my use, I give it to my wife and she loves it. I use my Tablet an average of 8 to 10 hours a day plus 3 or 4 hours of reading on it so I put it through a workout every day.

    This was an upgrade from my S2 which I bought new from BB 2 years ago. I sent the S2 back under warranty to get the battery changed. It also worked fine but seemed to be getting a little tired and battery charge took longer. After 600+ charges I expected that. When I get the S2 back I will sell it on EBAY as I have done before. The S3 works faster and does more. EZE transfer of files using smart switch. I was able to buy an open box at the store and save on the price.

    I bought this tablet after returning the Samsung Chrombook Pro because there were several android apps I use that did not like the Intel processor on that devise. The Tab S3 was so easy to set up. I have the galaxy s7 edge phone and the Tab synced and installed over 90% of the apps I have on the phone with one key push. Talk about EASY. I like the S pen that came with the Tab S3 much better than the chromebook's. It is much larger, like a regular Wacom with a function button with more functions to boot. It feels very natural in my hand. The only thing I wish is that it was a bit larger, I was drawn to the 12.3" and 12.5" screen devises, but my needs were more towards the android apps that work better with the Tab. I'm very happy with the Tab S3 and think it was the right choice for my travel devise.

    I am a user of many different OS. I have a IPP 12.9, a SP4, a Pixel C etc. and now I have a Tab S3. the S- Pen in my opinion is the best experience for getting that paper feeling. I have the apple pencil as well and with its had tip its very noisy when taking notes in the conference room and I needed something better. the Tab S3 fits that for me pros - OLED screen - the screen is way better than my IPP or SP4 its really that good. S-PEN - this is fantastic and you don't have to charge it and it doesn't take batteries etc expandable memory - a must have cons price - i think its overpriced, I think its a great tablet but at 600 they wont appeal to everyone and they should 32 GB onboard - should come with 64. the current version of Android doesn't allow apps on the SD card and that sucks. they brought it back in 7.1 but currently TAB S3 is 7.0 but as I said I keep going to my Tab S3 out of most of my tablets for media consumption and not taking etc. make no mistake the Tab S3 and IPP are NOT replacements for a PC. I still use my SP4 for real hard work.

    After getting a Samsung Galaxy S7 smartphone, needed a companion Tablet that would easily synch all my data across and would give me Microsoft Office capabilities. After review of different tablets, decided to select the Samsung Galaxy Tab family and waited until I could find a fairly priced S3 in 9.7 inch screen size. And this tablet met all my expectations and more, including using the full complement of Office apps to additionally sync data with my PC.

    I still love the Galaxy Tab S2 and would gladly use it on a daily basis, but this is by far the best android tablet ever!! It's fast, has a beautiful display, the additional speakers make it sound even better, and the added pen is fantastic! I recommend getting a slim tablet cover that comes with a pen holder. I found one that looks like a composition notebook ;)

    I chose this to replace my stolen Galaxy Tab S2, based on my experience with the S2. I use this primarily for reading comics (really) and the display quality was the primary selling point for me (for both the S2 and S3). Colors are sharp, battery life is reasonable, and the included stylus is an added bonus.

    The tablet I've been waiting for!

    The Galaxy Tab 3 has been many years in the making. Thus in many ways it has come late to the Tablet party which is been going on for years. However, it is the Tablet that the party is been waiting for. It is extremely fast and comparable to a traditional laptop. It is lightweight, very lightweight and the HD screen is unbelievably crisp, detailed, and bright. The ability for it to run applications such as Microsoft Office 365 allows me to do just about everything I used to do with the traditional PC. So for me, no more laptops, no more hybrids. The only thing it lacks is a keyboard and case. As it is Samsung makes an inexpensive and elegant add-on that is readily available. In addition, all of my apps from my Samsung S8 cell transferred with all data wirelessly and effortlessly. So in many ways it can also replace the functionality of my cell phone in the house: my Sonos speakers, controlling Smart home devices, checking weather patterns and maps, etc. I can even use it to make phone calls.

    Was looking for a tablet with the S Pen to take handwritten notes on PDF documents. Plus all the usual benefits of a tablet. This delivers. Does everything I need it to. Sleek and light. Great screen, good speakers, battery life last all day at work with the screen on for many hours.

    Best Android Tablet out there

    Have tried several brands and Samsung and the Tab S3 is simply outstanding in performance, screen resolution, clarity/colour, and true portability. First off, it's only WiFi which is what I wanted; don't need LTE/Mobile capability after all, I can use my phone as a hot spot. Most importantly is it is expandable via SD cards out to 250 Gigs. I travel on business a lot, and have several 128 Gig cards with my ripped movies and music. Sound is excellent through good headphones, and it still has a jack!! Can connect Bluetooth if needed, but don't on flight as I use sound cancelling. Had a iPad, which is hampered by being locked into a fixed size/no expandability. Also got the keyboard on a BB sale and with Softmaker Office and Outlook, it can be my laptop with infinite expandable storage via SD cards. All in one with outstanding performance, great battery life, USB 3.1 charging. Simply outstanding, and BB on Sale and keyboard also made it a deal couldn't be passed up. Far less expensive than a hamstrung iPad.

    Love this tablet! It's the perfect size, and superb quality build, feels good in hands. Beautiful vibrant screen, and good battery life. Best tablet for games. Doesn't lag like tablets I've tried before. Plus it comes with Microsoft apps. Can't go wrong with this tablet.

    This is my first tablet ever purchased I've never owned a previous tablet. But I did a lot of research comparing many tablets and this one thing the best for me. This tablet feels so great to use it is light it is easy to carry it has so much utility in it I switched from a Lenovo Yoga to this and I don't regret it if it's my uses so much better now. I've always been a fan of Android software so using this device was an easy to use and I still have not even scratched the surface on what it can do the S Pen is a charm to use. I'm actually using it right now to write this review and the voice pick up text-to-speech is great Google Assistant respond so much better than my phone and my past laptop if you're looking for a device that's good for light use for streaming and light web browsing but don't want to pay too much for a whole laptop I recommend this tablet and maybe it's even future versions.

    I am an old school caveman struggling up and out of the dark ages when it comes to technology. Being a recently retired Trucker (50 years) I've started a small business at home and the S3 is just what I need to carry me through. It is a bit intimidating but no problem so far as I'm able to figure things out and have not needed to use the Geek Squad membership I purchased with the unit. So far, so good. I am pleased with my purchase.

    This is the 4th Samsung tablet purchased for our family. My wife has a Galaxy Tab 2, and I've purchased the Galaxy 10.1 and 2014 10.1 in the past. While I preferred the slightly large screen size on the prior version, the speed, screen quality, and battery length of the Tab 3 is superior.
