Samsung Electronics SM-T830NZALXAR Galaxy Tab S4 with S Pen, 10.5, Gray

sturdy, has ways to hold tablet up , holds spen well, overall perfect product

I have had many tablets but this has been the best by far. screen quality, construction and feel are all outstanding although this is a pricey tablet. Would love to see samsung do a 12.2 inch min version at some point

I love this tablet. Previously I had an iPad Mini that was going on 5 years old. I loved it too and never wanted to get rid of it. I still have it, but I use this one now. I love that I can draw and have the pressure sensitivity. I love that I can write notes while Im studying on something and be able to multi task. This was a pretty expensive purchase for me, but Im not regretting it!

I couldnt wait to write a review on this tablet. Ive had it a week and it is THE BEST TABLET HANDS DOWN! After much research on looking for the perfect tablet for me, I finally found it in the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4! Everything about this tablet is perfection. It makes me wonder what was I doing before I bought it, lol! For everything I use this tablet for, it supercedes my expectations. So with that said, lets get into some specifics!

I usually buy Google Store tablets and phones. However, they no longer offer a large tablet so I got this. It is high quality but I find navigating around the Samsung features annoying and confusing. For example, there is a Samsung Internet. Why? Just let me use Chrome. Worse, I cannot see how to.make Chrome the default browser and am not sure how to erase Samsung Internet history. So I feel there is less privacy. Unhappy with a lovely piece of hardware.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 tablet has quickly become the favorite tablet I have ever used. With the Samsung’s Dex-mode software the Tab S4 gives you a desktop like user interface and it comes with Android apps. It has a great bright display and it also comes with the S Pen. In combination with the book cover keyboard the Tab S4 gives you the full tablet experience! With its glass front and back and aluminum edges the Tab S4 looks and feels stylish. The USB-port is on the bottom edge together with a headphone port. The Tab S4 offers a biometric login with a fast facial recognition. The Tab S4s 10.5-inch Super AMOLED screen is one of the brightest I have ever seen on a tablet. The 2560 x 1600-pixel display is so sharp. Great for watching movies and videos while traveling. The colors are bright and vivid. The touch screen display is very accurate and provides smooth scrolling. Drawing with the S Pen is also very fast and responsive. The Dex Mode is really something else! It allows the tablet to function like a desktop. You can open multiple apps and windows at once, with them all visible and having no difficulties or slowing down your tablet and you can switch to a full-screen view. Great for productivity because you can do all what you can do on a desktop on the Tab S4. Especially when you are using the book cover keyboard it really feels like you are working on a desktop/laptop. Dex can be enabled in the quick settings menu. When you tap it the Windows like desktop will appear. The included S Pen is a great tool for drawing, doodling and taking notes. The S pen offers a good degree of resistance when writing on the screen and the pressure sensitivity levels are very accurate. The S Pen feels great in your hands. It feels more like a real pen than any other stylus and has great gripping. The Tab S4 has great sound because of four speakers each supported by AKG which deliver a great Dolby Atmos surround sound effect. Great when listening to music and movies. Inside the Tab S4 is a Snapdragon 835, 4GB of RAM storage. A microSD slot is included so you can expand it further when needed. The 7300mAH battery lasts a long time before you need to recharge. When using the keyboard the battery lasts less long but a charger is included and recharging the Tab S4 is very fast compared to other tablets I owned. The 13-megapixel rear camera on the Galaxy Tab S4 takes clear pictures and the 8-megapixel, front-facing camera also takes very sharp pictures. Overall, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 provides a great high-end tablet experience with its sharp bright screen, the apps (Microsoft apps are also included) and Dex mode which enables you to multitask for higher productivity. It is a tablet that is easy to use on the go while traveling and great for at home. Highly recommend it! As an Insider I was given the opportunity to try out this tablet.

I owned Galaxy Tab S2 and Tab S3 and was very happy with them, so I had high expectations from Tab S4. The tablet turned out an incremental improvement over S3: slightly faster, better screen, better battery life. However, two design choices make the devise less user-friendly compared to Tab S3. The fingerprint sensor was replaced by an iris scanner, which does not work as well, especially in landscape mode, where I have to change my grip on the device. In addition, some apps have a very convenient fingerprint identification feature, which does not work with S4. Another downside are on-screen buttons. In some cases you have to touch the screen to see them. Worse yet, in some cases you cannot see them at all, for example, with YouTube is in a full-screen mode. You have to exist the full-screen mode to access the buttons. On-frame buttons of Tab S3 are much more convenient.

Love this replacement for my old laptop.

As far as tablets go, this is easily my best purchase. Im a simple man, 10+ screen, memory card slot, small bezels and lots of internal memory makes me very happy.

I had been in the market for a Drawing tablet for digital art for some time, but also wanted to ensure I was spending my money on something that would be the best value overall. I could have purchased an extremely powerful Wacom or similar high-end tablet to provide the Drawing capability, but I opted for an Android tablet instead understanding that Id be obtaining a LOT more functionality that could ultimately aid in the entire creative process. Ive also used the Galaxy Note devices since the 2nd iteration, and have really appreciated Samsungs continued innovation in the Stylus department. The stylus input is exceptional and has a pretty nice feel to it; not too heavy, not too light. Id also advise getting a case that has a compartment for the stylus to go into, which can prove very convenient. Overall, I think its an exceptional device with a lovely screen, great responsiveness, and a beautiful design that has already helped greatly in the creation of some digital art.
