Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love the screen, is nice and responsive with very vivid colors like all Samsung products. I am not used to the samsung interface yet(I am a google guy) but I am getting to understand all the features which are awesome. I love that it has the stylus included and how responsive and functional it is. I like that you can buy the keyboard if you are a hardcore writer or a student. It runs very smoothly and fast. The only complaint I may find is the battery life, which sucks just a little bit, but it's not that bad.

In the past month I have purchased two of these tablets. I purchased the first one for my husband and loved it so much I went out and got one for myself. It is compact(9.7"), easy to use and does everything we both want and then some. I also purchased the tablet cover with the keyboard, which is also great. The keys are large enough for his large fingers, and also not "sticky"(when you tap a key once and get multiple letters). It is also very slim and compact. The price was not too bad either!

like the speed, like pen, lightweigh. comming from 2014 samsung note tablet. still like 2014 just slower then this one.

Replaced an older smaller Samsung and this was a great upgrade. Larger screen, faster speed, and longer battery life.

After researching and spending a lot of time trying to find the best tablet, I decided on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S3. I wanted a tablet that was blazingly fast and had no compromises, and this was it. It is very fast and does everything I wanted it to do and even comes with a stylus that will write on the screen if you want it to. It cost a bit more, but I got it on sale which made it a bit of a no brainer, and I'm not second guessing myself about my choice. Go for it!

I have had the tablet for a month now. Purchased it for work and college. Absolutely love. The tablet is super fast even during game play and video streaming to a tv. That battery life is great on average it lasts at least 10 hours with heavy use. I only charge it every few days. I keep finding more and more options and abilities from Samsung products over Apple products. I was an avid Apple product user and then I opened my eye's. Keep making amazing products Samsung!

I've had iPads and Android tablets in the past, but after my last Android tablet I went back to the iPad because it just didn't perform well (it was extremely slow). I saw good reviews about this tablet so I thought it was time to give Android a try again. It was between this and the iPad Pro because I wanted a stylus, but this was less expensive and came with the S Pen (with iPad Pro you need to pay $100 for their pencil). So far I really like this tablet. The screen looks great and it's very fast. They've come a long way in managing applications, and I get periodic notices that an app has been put to sleep, and it reminds me to restart my tablet every few days to keep it running in great shape (I do it even though it doesn't seem like it needs it). The fast charge is incredible as well, it charges in next to no time! I bought a case that holds the S Pen since it doesn't come with a way to hold like the Note phones do. All in all, I'm happy with this upgrade from my old iPad. Not sure how it holds up against an iPad Pro, but for the price, I think this one is the best bet!

I took a long time, searching for a tablet that met my needs as an artist and my needs as a not-so-wealthy artist. Everyone (most not artists) screamed Apple...which made sense to me. But comparing and testing out in person gave me a whole new picture. The prices were similar,but that's pretty much where the comparison ends ( at least for me) . The screen/view is amazing! I now understand what some reviewers meant. This little device is handling most of my work, and it weighs nothing! (I cannot handle many things due to health issues, so that was a big seller for me. ) It can, and does, a number of duties my desktop performs. The S Pen is amazing! I've used others like Wacom but they either are not quite as sensitive or as light and comfortable as Samsung's S Pen. I will say I've only owned it for a few months, but if it continues working for me like this, I'll be the first to build a massive monument in the front yard of Samsung!

I've been searching for a tablet for the longest time, as far as I can remember. I've played with the iPads and I just couldn't find myself utilizing such a thing. It wasn't until I saw the Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 that I knew I had found what I was looking for. First of all, it's much lighter than any of the iPads I have ever had the opportunity to handle. This comes in play as I tend to run around and holding something with one hand is much easier when it's light. Now don't get my wrong. Just because it's light doesn't mean it's any more delicate than the iPad or it's less powerful. The features on this is amazing. I am already comfortable with the OS since I have been a Samsung Galaxy phone user for the past few years so it was natural that I would be used to this. I am a big fan of the expandable memory feature which the iPad does not have. Another nice aspect is that the S-Pen does not need to be charged, whereas the Apple pencil does (also it doesn't cost $99 to replace one!) Another great feature which I have discovered is the Screen Write feature. I can easily use the S-Pen and click on the screen to activate the S-Pen feature, which will proceed to do a Screen Capture and allow me to immediately edit/write on the image. For the iPad, you have to do a screen capture, go to where the image is stored and open it up and then go to edit it. The Tab S3 is much more efficient at this. I've just been in love with the Tab S3 when I purchased it during Black Friday. It's so convenient to take notes on a sync it with my other devices. I never leave home without it!

This Tablet is fantastic. I do have a bias for Samsung tablets despite using Apple products regularly. This particular device has one of the best screens on the market. It appears to be an OLED screen which is what sets this apart screen wise. On top of that, it has the juice to make it snappy and quick to use. This is definitely worth the extra amount, but there is a good chance it's near the end of it's life cycle.

It's a great screen, works well, but was quite pricey. Add to that I lost the stylus very early and they are very expensive to replace. But I really do love using the stylus.

I upgraded to this tablet from my old Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition). The former was great and made me a huge fan. This new model I love the addition of a snap on style keyboard option, fingerprint scanner and the upgraded pen. Works in tandem well w/my Galaxy S8. Setup w/Samsung Switch was a breeze as well. It is also significantly lighter than my former one which I love as well. Highly recommend this.

The Galaxy Tab S3 is the first tablet I have seen in the past 3 years that is worthy of replacing my Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition). The Note 10.1 (2014) had amazing hardware and top of the line software at the time. No tablet that has been released by any company since then has matched or beaten the hardware. My Note 10.1 was aging and I was getting ancy to replace it, but the closest thing I could find at first was an iPad. Finally, they announced the Tab S3. It had hardware that was worthy of replacing my Note 10.1, including the S-Pen, which was a make-or-break in choosing a replacement. It has great audio, a great display, is lightweight and modern looking, and runs Android 7.0. I can go into the details of it comparing the specific hardware, but I'll just keep it simple and say the tablet is worth it. And battery life is great. I've had my tablet running for about a week now without having to charge it yet, with average/moderate use.

I;ve had many tablets, the Note pro 12 inch was the last and this tablet blows away the display on all other tablets. The note pro at 12 inch was too big to carry around with the attached keyboard but the tab s3 is the perfect size with the handy keyboard. It slips into my small purse and does not add much weight, I'm thrilled with this tablet. One point... you can not attach an HDMI output to it BUT, it has great streaming to smart tv or roku etc so you'll barely miss the HDMI output. I was hoping for the use of theme store but it doesn't support it but I've never seen a samsung tablet that does so no big deal. I have no lag with this tablet, it's just as good as my S8 plus. Loveing this tablet!!!! Just hope they update it for a few more years than previous tablets I've owned. You won't be sorry with this tablet, it's worth the price and I would highly suggest the samsunng keyboard with it! I sold my laptop and use this now, no regreats!!!

I love my tablet. Have used MACs before and I am totally in favor of the Samsung

Light weight, pretty color display, sharp pictures, stylus pen a plus.

Love this tablet. Decent battery life, fabulous screen, easy to use.

I've owned the tab S1, tab S2, and now the tab S3. I can say without a doubt that this one has way more horsepower than the other devices. The screen looks good and the battery seems to last all day. The only big issue I have is the Wi-Fi range. When I am cooking dinner most nights, I like to use my tablet to stream a TV show so I can watch while I cook. With my phone, a Nexus 5x, I do this all the time and it works flawlessly over Wi-Fi. However, when I try to use the Tab S3, it just doesn't seem to have the same range and it constantly drops the signal. Granted, my router is on the other side of the house, but it's a good, expensive router ($200 dollars), and it's a stark contrast against my much cheaper phone that can reach the router from a much further distance. This is disappointing to say the least. I've tried both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequencies on both the phone and the tablet. On either, the phone reaches with no problem, while the tablet struggles. I have to get about one and a half rooms closer to the router else the signal, when it manages to reach at all, frequently disconnects on and off. Very frustrating. If not for this issue, it would definitely be 5 stars. Fortunately, as long as I mainly use this tablet in my bedroom, the signal reaches just fine, so that's where I use it the most.

Tablets has seriously fallen out of style now that phones are constantly getting larger and laptops are getting smaller and cheaper, but I still find them to be the best media consumption device out there. That said, the Tab S3 is currently the best you can get. It's definitely pricey, but if you can justify the premium, the S3 is just packed with goodies from the great screen, the quad speakers to the surprisingly useful s-pen.

The screen is beautiful and the tablet is very fast. I have Note 8 tablet and side by side it excels. But being larger than the old tablet, I find it heavier and awkward to hold. The only bad issue is the battery life is shorter. I suspect the OS and "notifications" keep the screen lit until i notice it. Or have a completely exhausted battery.
