The editors didn't like
Non-original design with an abundance of plastic
High initial price
It's packed full of so much bundled software from Samsung and third parties that it will likely be confusing for first-time Android users
As with the Galaxy S5
Samsung has crammed in a fingerprint scanner into the Tab S
But it manages to succumb to the same flaws it just doesn't really work. It's hard to use gracefully
And we often found ourselves resorting to typing in our password to u
Finger scanner still a little awkward
Audio and picture quality don't beat the best
Poor battery
Touchwiz complicates user interface

Colour won't appeal
Lack of apps for larger Android tablets
Oversaturated colours
Cheap-looking plastic rear
Software can be over the top

Bronze not for everyone
Android apps lack behind iOS
The iPad Mini 2 is now much cheaper
Some UI lag
Google Play apps aren't tablet optimised
Fingerprint scanner
Smorgasbord of apps may be offputting to stock Android fans

Given Samsung's dominance in the phone market (and the interconnect options offered by SideSync), I can see a lot of people buying these tablets purely on the strength of name alone and they won't be disappointed. Whether you like Samsung's software or no...

Ultimately, Samsung wants the Tab S to compete with both the iPad Air and the iPad mini with Retina Display, but it's going after the wrong target...
The Galaxy Tab S (in both sizes) has the best display of any tablet to date, by a healthy margin. If you watch a ton of video, edit photos, and/or play a lot of HD games on your tablet, then it's worth considering for the screen alone, and the tablet it's...

Abstract: Samsung has a lot of tablets. Like, a lot. Some are for reading, some for writing, others are just for kids, but there isn't a Samsung tablet that looks, feels like a next-gen, flagship, premium device. That is, until now. This is the Galaxy Tab S: Samsun...
