The editors didn't like
Still lacking in design
Laggy interface
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
Samsung's TouchWiz overlay
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
Wi-Fi and GPU performance not quite up to the competition
Stuffy TouchWiz software impacts battery and performance

Excellent design and performance, Pixel perfect screen, Decent battery life
TouchWiz features can be overwhelming, Tricky fingerprint scanner
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S earns high marks thanks to its high quality screen and excellent built quality. Combine that with the superfast performance and you got yourself a tablet that should match Apple's iPad...
Thin and light, Excellent screen, Good battery life, Reasonably priced LTE option
My Magazine feature can't be removed, Disappointing speakers, Lacks NFC
Samsung's copious software add-ons and UI tweaks mean that the Galaxy Tab S delivers a particular kind of Android experience. Although we have a few issues with some of these extras, the slimline Galaxy Tab S is still a very impressive tablet....
The combination of vibrant, uber-crisp screen and battery life longer than Dirk Diggler's portable pal makes the Samsung Galaxy Tab S a worthy travel tablet. It's not without its kinks, but it's strong enough for both business and entertainment to make it...
Abstract: Launched a while ago, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 is definitely a great tablet that not only offers a great slim design, but also high-end specs like the Quad HD display. Today, we find that the 4G LTE version designed for the American operator T-Mobile...

Beautiful highresolution AMOLED displays. Absurdly thin and light. Expandable storage via MicroSD slot. Multi Window mode is a useful extra, as is SideSync if you own a Galaxy phone. Solid battery life
TouchWiz UI means there's a bit of bloatware in the mix. That same plastic dimpled backing as the Samsung Galaxy S5 (although it does look better on these tablets)
excellent display, slim and lightweight design, many interfaces, memory can be upgraded, LTE, allows for calls, decent camera with LED flash, good battery life
poor speakers, only USB 2.0, no S-pen, no IP certification, modest microphone
The material choice is limited to a lot of plastic and some glass. Here, the test device is not on the same street as the iPad. On the other hand, the Tab S 10.5 is slimmer than Apple's star model. Yet, the Sony Xperia Z2 tablet can undercut this and is a...

Gorgeous, roomy AMOLED display, Ultra-light for its size class, Nearly chart-topping battery life
Speakers sound tinny and distorted at maximum volume, Smooth back panel lacks tactile grip, Soft navigation buttons flanking home button are oversensitive, No support for NFC
A premium-priced tablet with an eye-popping display, the Tablet S delivers the most innovation we've seen in several tablet generations. It's the best full-size Android slate to date. Read More…...
