First of all, let me say this; I bought this tablet to lighten my load on a trip overseas. I also wanted something more than just my phone for access to social media. This thing rocks. Beautiful display, sturdier storage for micro-SD card. No longer limited to 2.4 GHz wireless.(this is dual band).

The Galaxy Tab S2 is powered by a non-removable 4,000mAh battery, which during my tests proved surprisingly capable. Streaming Netflix on Wi-Fi, with the screen in the auto setting, the Galaxy Tab S2 discharged between 10 to 15% of its charge per hour.

Powerful processor; Great display; Decent battery

Touchwiz skin still not great; Runs old version of Android

The Tab S2 is impressively slim and light, but at £399 for the 9.7-inch model it's pretty expensive considering the better-built competition.

Vibrant display; 4:3 aspect ratio works well in portrait or landscape orientation; Ultra slim and lightweight design; MicroSD slot for storage expansion

It's pretty expensive; Build not as high-end as competitors; Graphical limitations; Lower resolution than predecessor; Battery life not great

There is a simple truth here: Not everyone who wants a tablet wants an iPad. I would say most people do but there are plenty who do not like Apple, iOS or following the crowd - or who simply prefer Android and Samsung. For those people, this is the tablet to buy.

This was a Christmas present for grandson. Black Friday order was unexpectedly cancelled at last minute. This works but real hassle to get one and have it delivered in time. Of course price was more for smaller tablet.

Bright display; Durable

Did not meet expectations

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 is one of the best Android tablets on the market. It's incredibly thin and light, has useful multitasking features, and excels at media playback. But its high price and average battery life make the 8-inch Tab S2 a better buy, unless you really need that additional 1.7...

Great multitasking features; Premium build; Good camera

Pricey; Lots of bloatware; Average battery life in testing

The highlights of Samsung's new tablet are the restrained, yet sophisticated and very slim construction as well as the new 4:3 Super-AMOLED screen. It can easily keep up with its excellent predecessor and convinces with a great contrast ratio, good outdoor capabilities and brilliant and accurate...

very thin and light; sophisticated build quality; microSD-card slot; AC Wi-Fi & Bluetooth 4.1; fingerprint scanner; precise touchscreen; great display with excellent contrast & colors; video recording in QHD; telephone functions; smooth handling

only average performance; heavy throttling; color changes from flat viewing angles; only Micro-USB 2.0; no NFC; IR transmitter of the predecessor is missing

Samsung has always been renowned for its line up of smartphones and for introducing the phablet category and delivering on it with its Note line of devices which have led to the birth of a new category of large screen smartphones.

It's been quite a long time since I last picked up an Android tablet to use or review. While Google's mobile op

Ultra-sim, lightweight design is undoubtedly very attractive; Android on tablets has improved in the last year; Decent display with an ideal aspect ratio

Expensive compared to Apple's current iPads; Performance and battery life falls behind the best tablets out there
