Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 review! Can Samsung's large number of tablets move out of the way for this "flagship" tablet? The Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 packs in a lot of the same specs from the Tab Pro that was announced at CES, but it manages to pack it all into a thin 6.6mm profile.

Samsung's Galaxy Tab S 10.5 draws the eye right away with a stunning 10.5in, 2,560 x 1,600-resolution Super AMOLED screen. Apart from its sibling, the Galaxy Tab S 8.4, it's the only tablet on the market to feature such a panel, and its sheer vibrance stops you dead in your tracks.

When the Galaxy Tab S 10.5 landed on the TechSmart review table, its dimpled plastic back cover brought back not so fond memories of the South Korean manufacturer's S5 (review) flagship.

Brilliant Display; Great battery life; Fantastic for web browsing and media viewing

Bezel can make handling difficult; Power and volume buttons oddly placed

The tablet is highly portable, cute and has a great display. So if you need a media device to stream all your movies and browse all the awesome Tumblr galleries, you have come to the right place.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S is an extremely light and slim tablet, making for a super sleek media companion; Its beautiful screen, capable of delivering rich tones and colors, is also on our favorite list.

As you probably expect, the Galaxy Tab S 10.5 is not a cheap tablet; The 16GB version retails for about $499 / €386 (the Wi-Fi variant); The LTE model is bound to cost even more, so many customers might be put off by the amount of money they would have to spend.

Summary: Samsung's copious software add-ons and UI tweaks mean that the Galaxy Tab S delivers a particular kind of Android experience. We have a few issues with some of these extras, but the slimline Galaxy Tab S is still a very impressive tablet.

Thin and light; Excellent screen; Good battery life; Reasonably priced LTE option

My Magazine feature can't be removed; Disappointing speakers; Lacks NFC

I replaced my iPad with this tablet. I looked at the specs for the iPod Air vs. the Galaxy Tab S and the choice was easy. The screen resolution is fantastic -- I never watched videos on my iPad but I do on the Tab. The Android Kit Kat OS works fine, and there are a ton of apps available.

Easy To Set Up; Easy To Use; Fast; Great Screen

Buttons Poorly Placed

i was waiting for an amoled tablet for such a long time and when it got anounced i was so trilled. Got it on launch day and i knew that the amoled screen would blow me away and.... it did more than that, it overkilled me.

Purchased this product because I'd previously owned an iPad where the storage had quickly been filled. With the Samsung Galaxy Tab S, you have the option of installing up to 128GB of additional storage - more than enough to satisfy even the most hungry data hound.

When Samsung sets out to conquer a certain division, they go all out. For years now, their GALAXY S and Note smartphones have been the best-selling devices worldwide. It was only until the recent surge of competition from Chinese manufacturers did they slip a little.

Stunning display; Good battery life; Superbly thin and light; Powerful performance

Occasional UI lag; Same old design; Still a little plasticky; Price

I'm really excited I moved from the iPad to the Galaxy Tab S. The speed of the downloads. The Picture Quality WOW! The preloaded Apps. It is just a Great Product.
