I was looking for a Windows tablet but wasn't keen to buy a Surface. Having had a Samsung tablet before was excited to see what this could do. PROS: nice design, good performance, great display CONS: slightly heavier than expected (but OK).

I've had the Galaxy Tabpro s for just under 4 months now and it's been really useful. I'm often on the go whether it be meetings or long train journeys so having something I can work on has been great. It's lightweight and a nice size for slipping into my bag.

When Microsoft first released the Surface several years ago, it was pretty clear that the company was on to something. It wasn't a perfect device, but the portability and flexibility of the design – primarily a tablet but capable of transforming into a semi-functional laptop through a keyboard cover...

Slim, light, and attractive build; AMOLED displays of this size are always a treat; Very respectable battery life; Keyboard cover is included in the price

The keyboard cover, a crucial part of the package, is substandard due to its limited angles and cheap construction; USB-C can be restrictive; No option to buy a more powerful version

Samsung's first Galaxy-branded Windows device sports an impressive Super AMOLED screen and excellent battery life. But if you value physical ports and a great typing experience, better 2-in-1 options are available.

Attractive Super AMOLED display; Impressively thin and light; Excellent battery life; Keyboard included; USB Type-C charging

Keyboard isn't backlit; Not as powerful or configurable as Microsoft's Surface Pro 4; Active stylus costs extra; USB Type-C is the only port

The TabPro S is a great Windows tablet, but a poor Windows 2-in-1 PC.

Extremely thin and light; Keyboard accessory is no extra charge; Wide display color gamut and high contrast ratio; Decent battery life

Display suffers poor viewing angles; Keyboard is cramped; Very limited connectivity

This hybrid is a decent tablet, but a mangled laptop

Thin; Dazzling screen; USB-C

No other ports besides USB-C; Dreadful keyboard-screen cover; Stylus not included as standard

Samsung's latest attempt at a a laptop and tablet in one device is the Galaxy TabPro S. See what we make of it in our full review after it was premiered at CES 2016.

The Galaxy TabPro S is a decent first attempt at a 2-in-1 hybrid from Samsung, but it's not without its flaws

The Galaxy TabPro S is a beautiful device. In a way, it reminds me of other tablets Samsung has made in the past, but looks and feels more modern. The tablet has its pros, but also has its cons. Here's what I've noticed after a week using this device.

Fantastic battery life; Beautiful screen; Practically no bloatware

Odd keyboard spacing; Only two standing positions; Protruding back camera

It seems like 2-in-1 hybrids are more like two-a-penny hybrids at the moment – we reviewed both the Dell XPS 12 and HP Spectre x2 last month – but the Galaxy TabPro S offers something different.
