The editors didn't like
The audio quality coming out of the speakers is a definite disappointment
Especially on the 10.5
Which feels like it should have immersive sound to match the incredible screen. Samsung's TouchWiz still causes some stutter. There are a lot of redundant a
It's still plastic
Uneven fingerprint sensor
SideSync is unreliable
Starting at $500 or £400
It's a high-end purchase. Touchscreen response can lag if many of its memory-hogging apps are open in the background
Bronze version not for everyone
Screen is overly saturated
Let down by Android tablet app selection
Some content can look a little over saturated
Sound quality not the best
Limited bezel
Oversaturation on display
Disappointing Android tablet apps
Not everyone will like bronze version
Touchwiz makes pointless user interface changes
Fingerprint scanner often fails to recognise fingerprint
Software still freezes occasionally
Especially when switching between apps
Magazine UX largely unimpressive
A bit of extra power from the speakers wouldn't go amiss
Screen feels almost too bright and vivid
No black model available
Isn't dust/water-resistant like GS5
Fingerprint Scanner isn't ideal for tablet use
Sony's Xperia Z2 tablet is a little thinner and lighter

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...

Great performance, Comfortable to hold for long sessions, Awesome WiFi, At least as good as an iPad
Stuffy TouchWiz software impacts battery and performance, No NFC, Comparably expensive, Packed with gimmicks and bloatware
Samsung finals bangs one out of the park in terms of tablet design, and though its software still needs work, the Tab S stands out as one of the more comfortable and powerful tablets to use. Out of the box, battery life seems to be a major problem, but...

Abstract: These are the Korean company's new weapons against the iPad Air and iPad mini with Retina which, despite some big advances from Android, still rule the roost when it comes to premium tablets. There's not a lot of competition from Android at this top-end o...
Abstract: Apple may have given the iPhone a much-needed makeover, but it's steady as she goes for the iPad for now. The tech giant will no doubt rectify that situation shortly but until then Samsung's flagship tablet, the Galaxy Tab S 10.5, remains a formidable pre...

Plastic back might feel nice, but it scratches easily; Colours might not appeal to all; Samsung's Magazine UX feels unfinished, and offers very little in the way of control; SideSync's phone controller is Samsung only, and for a very small amount of devic

Thin and light, Top-notch hardware, Market leading screen, Finger scanner
Samsung's TouchWiz overlay
Samsung has made the best tablet on the market in many ways. The 10.5in screen is in a league of its own, the design resonates, it has a proficient camera and any variant of the Tab S is worth its asking price. Faulting the Tab S' hardware is a tall order...
