The included S Pen and ample storage also receive high praise, with many appreciating the tablet's performance and lightweight design. While some find the price a bit high and the lack of a headphone jack inconvenient, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive.

    First off I will say this is the nicest android tablet I've used, the device feels solid, the back is metal and feels cold to touch and the screen is lovely. The speakers are loud and the battery lasts for ages. The s-pen is a nice addition too. Android isn't massively locked down so you can do some cool things not possible on other manufactures devices. All those things considered though, there are some negatives, I struggle to find things I would do with it I wouldn't rather do on my laptop or phone. I have a galaxy s10 phone and this is very similar though it does seem like the tab s6 is not so well supported in some aspects, for instance it hasn't received this months security update unlike my phone. It would probably seem more useful if more apps were configured to take advantage of the extra screen space but many aren't (best buy's own app for instance only works in portrait mode). Those that are often have inconsistencies that annoy (for instance facebook throws you into portrait for sign in). My bank's app crashed when I used it. I suspect it would feel much more useful with the Samsung keyboard case but its prohibitively expensive, especially when I think it should come with it given that dex is one of the big selling points of the tablet. All those things considered would I buy it again? Probably, at the price I did, but then I got it at a mega reduction. If it were full price I would say not. Maybe things will be better after a few more updates from app manufacturers and Samsung/ google. We will have to see. Shame about the case though.

    I was hoping for an updated version of the S2. Plus: lighter, thinner, faster, excellent screen. Minus: no headphone jack, virtual buttons take up screen space so less than 10.5, squashed images or reduced image size to fit screen dimension. I'd prefer the S2 but with an OLED screen.

    Didn't have a keyboard like the salesman told me and then I find out that I have to pay extra to have things transfered from my old tablet to the new one. I have the GEEK Squad service so I thought it would cover this. A little disappointed.

    My Microsoft has manufacturer issues that they won't fix but did not warn the public about because only 1% of devices are effected. So I replaced it with this Samsung. I do not like the orientation options doesn't go back and forth with ease. Going to and from "Dexmode" is a hassle. Turning this thing off is a task and the keyboard setup it absolute trash. Picking a tablet during quarantine in a bind has me filled with regrets. With much frustration it does what I need it to but I will be selling and replacing it ASAP.

    This is good replacement for the TS3 but wait a year. Early adopters will find the price at least $250 to high IMHO.

    I bought a laptop for my wife's birthday and she didn't like it. I wanted to swap for the tablet. Tyler store wanted to charge a restock fee. Call the Lufkin store and explain my problem and they were more than willing to work with me without any restock fee. I will drive to the Lufkin store instead of setting foot in the Tyler store due to the fact Tyler doesn't have any costumer service. Mark

    the tablet accidentely dropped while it was in my laptop protection area in my bag. it gradually started showing like a bomb grenade effect of ink under the screen. then I had left it alone for 4 days and came back the screen was almost fully black. so its easy to break.

    This is good and can be the best andriod tablet in the market. Still it has so many glitches and hope latest software update fixes it. Also this is a years behind iPad. iPad ecosystem and interface is far far better than this.

    60FPS just doesn't cut it, expensive and slow

    I thought this tablet would be perfect for a little retro gaming, but sadly the 60FPS display and the slowness of the tablet really didn't let it shine next to my iPad Pro.

    Tablet worked great for a few months, then started having issues with audio and video for video conferencing. Then it completely blacked out.

    I purchased this item in "excellent condition" and returned it because it had scratches on the back. To me this isn't excellent condition.

    What it well, it does greatly. However, for a premium tablet it is very spendy, if it was cheaper than I would have given it a 5 star review.

    The battery on this tablet is much shorter than my old Tab A (2016) with S pen. Other than that it's similar to my Note 10 + phone

    The next tab s7 will definitely be worth it, this tablet has a lot of potential, Its just that the screen is too small.

    I think that my problem with Bluetooth may on my end. But I can't get a professional due to the pandemic.
