I have been using the Tab S7 for almost a month now and I love it.The ScreenThe 11 Screen it bright with beautiful color. It has honestly ruined all other displays for me. I wish my Phone looked this good it is making me consider leaving my Pixel 4XL for an S21 Ultra.The SPenThe included SPen is comfortable to hold and uses a Wacom digitizer for an extremely accurate writing and drawing experience. The best part is Samsungs handwriting recognition. It works very well for me. I am actually writing this review on the Tab S7 with the Spen and it is autogenerating the text from my handwriting. It works amazingly well.NotesI have become addicted to Samsungs Notes App. I use it all of the time to got down notes in meetings. My goto template is the college ruled paper with the default pencil.AppsMost artists would want Procreate which is only on iPad, but I really love Sketchbook from Autodesk which is free So you cant beat the price.Valuewhen compared to the iPad Pro the value is unbeatable. I got this Tab S7 which includes the SPen on sale for 569. It included a 50 Best Buy Gift Card which I used for the BookCase Cover, So essentially I got the Tablet, Pen, and Cover for less than 569. In comparison, an 11 iPad Pro is 799. The apple pencil is 129 and the cheapest Apple OEM Cover is 79 bringing the pretax total to 1,007. I just Cant imagine the ipad Pro being worth nearly twice the amount of the Tab S7.

I rarely give any piece of technology 5 stars because So many companies cut corners leaving customers to pay more than they should for what they get but THIS Tablet is different It is AWESOMEFinally I have a tablet that uses the same CPU as my Top of the line Cellphone 865 cpu.The CPU may be last years but this tablet is no Slouch. I have the 12.4 screen which sucks up battery power faster than 11 version but it still lasts me more than about 5 hours of Internet use snd Youtube viewing. I am certain it would last 10 hours or more if I used it solely as a book reader.This larger model is only slightly heavier than my wifes 11 model, but I dont hold it for very long as I tend to cross one leg and use it to hold tablet at a comfortable angle. I could do the same with a foldable case i got from ebay for 12 but it isnt always held at the best angle for me.I think the regular price of 1,029 is too high… It would have been ideal at 799.I got it on sale for 849 and if you wait, it seems to go on sale every 4 weeks for that price

Omg I love this tablet Previously I owned a laptop that disconnected into a tablet but it started to glitch and freeze too often and not to mention the tablet was quite bulky. The Samsung Galaxy S7 is soo sleek It works perfectly for at home or on the go. Another very notable feature is the display. Its the clearest and most crisp display Ive ever seen on any tablet or computer. I mainly use my tablet to do graphics for my webpage and edit photos for my social media so this type of quality is a dream for me The camera is also very clear and takes beautiful pictures. Overall I must say that I recommend this tablet to any and everyone. I plan to purchase the keyboard as well for when I may need it.

I am an Apple person who turn android recently. I purchased this tablet along with a note 20 ultra. At first I went backandforth between the iPad and the galaxy tab a 7 but after a good week of using the galaxy tab I realize that my iPad was outdated. I do my Bible study in Samsung notes and it had everything that I need. Apple you have to download different apps to get your iPad to work. I love that the Samsung tablet camera has an automatic scanner. I love the look and feel, the fast charge, pen charging location and placement, and the fingerprint reader. I purchased this with the keyboard case and its been soooo amazing. There are only two things that I would like to see. Remove the DELETE button. It doesnt work. The back space is the delete button, why have it I wish it were taller verse wider. Its easier to hold. Sorry I have one more thing to add. Verizon along with ATT does not have the option on the tablet to receive text and calls. Neither does any of their Samsung phones. TMobile is the only carrier that participates in that feature. When you get a text message and call it would show up on your Samsung tablet similar to the iPhone and iPad. But Verizon along with ATT are the only two carriers who do not have that function. Verizon please activate that function. You are ruining the customers experience of such a great product.

The tablet has solid constructionthe weight is a bit heftier than I had imagined but manageable.The display is very good and the speed at which it boots up is very good. The sound quality from the builtin speaker is goodeven better when using earbuds.I have always found Samsungs additions to Android a bit peculiarmeaning some of the Samsung apps. It is still early since I purchased and have relied on the common stepsprocesses that get me the use of the tablet I need.Like the fact that the microSD card slot allows for a very large storage card max 1 TB. I selected a 400GB SD card that seemed more than sufficient since the internal memory is 256 GB.Still getting used to the specifics of functionality of the tablet but admit that I have not really studied the user manualguide.The accompanying pen seems to be quite effectivemy use of it at this early point has been somewhat limited.Opted to purchase a separate cover and Bluetooth keyboard I found on the Internet. The keyboard connected quite nicely. The offer from Samsung was OVER priced.Paired my earbuds with the tablet and the pairing was a breeze.Looking forward to this tablet being my goto item for the next few years given the higher cost of the tablet. Far too often Samsung products are priced too highly for my likes.The purchase of the tablet, the microSD card, the covercase with a keyboard certainly makes this combination less expensive than some of the other similar devices such as the Microsoft Surface. Perhaps not similar in processing power but if your needs are not great, you will save .

Formerly had a first generation Samsung Tab S which Finally died this year. That tablet had been so fast and reliable that there was no question I would replace it with a Tab S7. So far the Tab S7 has been everything Ive come to expect, fast, featurepacked, and long battery life. This time around, I also paired the tablet with my phone and use some of the text and callforwarding features. These have increased the tablets utility even more. Finally, would be remiss to write a review without mentioning one of the main reasons I continue to buy Android devices, expandable memory It lets me set up my device my way, which is a deal breaker for me

Im an Android guy but have always had iPads since they first came out. Ive tried some previous Samsung tablets but I always thought the iPads had a better experience hardware wise. Current iPad is about 3 years old, not traveling as much as I used to but have been wanting to upgrade. Decided to give this new S7 a try and I absolutely love it, the screen is excellent and it performs very well. The hardware is stellar, sleek and well made. I use Nova launcher, have for years and its nice to have my tablet and phone having the same screens and same apps. Its a great tablet, if youre thinking about trying something besides an iPad, give this one a try.

the samsung tab s7 is the greatest tablet you can buy. as a student i take and store all my notes on it. i can record my professors speak and that is very helpful. but studying is not all that its good at. with a controller and a game streaming service it is wonderful for gaming. the screen has a good refresh rate so the games and movies run smooth. the audio is epic specially with the dolby surround. finally, thanks to the 865 processor and the 8gb ram the tablet is always fast and smooth. i highly recommend this tablet. i have the tab s7 and the size is perfect for me and i love it if you want a tablet you wont regret buying this one

First of all, I am an IT engineer, so I know what Im talking about. I watched hundreds of reviews before buying it, yet none of those people falling over each other to get either a free tablet or youtube income listed even one of the massive flaws with it so here they are. Note that ive had the tablet for just over 24hrs, there may be more. In 2017 I bought a 12.9 inch tablet from another firm which I cant mention due to posting rules, so from now on Ill refer to it as My old Tablet X. Upon opening the package yesterday, the first impression I had was 12.4 inches its tiny. TINY, it is much smaller than MoTX. The important part is not the case but the viewable area, which on the MoTX is a few millimeters shorter than the tab S7 but its also about a centimeter wider because the MoTX ratio is 43 while S7 is 1610 ironically Samsung has this in the list of Features. Reading A4 documents on S7 is a MUCH worse experience as you have to continuously CONTINUOUSLY scroll sideways to see the rest of the document. Or turn the tablet in landscape mode and continuously scroll updownwards instead. Or use a magnifying glass, your choice. It sometimes gets very hot when its supposed to be using theoretically little computational or graphic power, like browsing for pictures. Yet at other times, do the same thing and it doesnt happen. The pen AH THE PEN. A few months ago I bought a Samsung Tab S6 Lite for my mum, which came with a pen, and THAT pen works well so says my mum. Not this one, its a horrendous hitand miss affair touches with it are often simply ignored. Separate it from the tablet for a while and it disconnects WHY, so you need to place it back on the tablets magnetic spot to activate it, and it absolutely must be pointing upward or youre shizz out of luck. This process is AGONIZINGLY slow, taking several minutes each time no im not exaggerating. So, the tablet arrived yesterday around noon, and today at 2pm Ive already abandoned the pen a key component of this device rather than reconnect it for the Nth time. The S7 feels… totally different from the MoTX, its smaller and it has a full aluminum body, yet it feels nowhere near as solid its also heavy and slippery and absolutely must be put into a case, possibly with a hand strap, or you will drop it. Since were on that subject Go check out what Samsung charges for the book cover and keyboard cover. The prices are formidable, and yet they offer virtually no protection from falls. The side buttons in Samsung devices keep switching place from device to device. As far as I can tell Samsung is the only one who does it. So for instance on my Galaxy S21 and my mums Galaxy A10, the top button is the volume rocker while on this one its the BixbuttonOff. Since were talking about Bixby, on every other Samsung device I have Im a Samsung fan so I have many, Bixby fully complies with your settings. Not on this one I set Bixby to speak with the UK British male voice Chris. You longpress the side key, it wakes up with the FEMALE voice, and theres no setting that changes only that part. The tablet has 4 speakers, tuned by whatstheirname I know who they are, but my friends and family never heard of them Bixby comes through very well on it, loud and crystal clear. Yet I played some CD quality music FLAC format, 44100Hz and my …eggs dropped to the floor. The terms that came to mind were Thin, soft, tinny, while my 4yo MoTX plays the same files slightly better. So I wont be playing any music through it, and now Im afraid to play a movie because if I get a similar experience I wont have any use left for this device. Good job theres four speakers because if you hold the device in landscape mode you cover 2 of them. Unfortunately, I bought this device straight from Samsung, if I had bought it on …another online market… I would have returned it immediately.

I absolutely love this new tablet from Samsung. I like the slim design and colorful screen. But as I usually use my ipad I did notice some features that are way better with Samsung. Its crazy because I use a Samsung phone and didnt really know how much I was missing by not upgrading to a Samsung tablet before. I really noticed a difference in sound quality in comparison with my iPad. The Samsung tablet sounded louder and clearer when I opted to listen to it at full volume I love loud music. Another thing I noticed that some web pages that I used to frequent and had loading issues with, were absolutely nonexistent with the Samsung, I love that. And the final feature I love is the large screen. It is slightly bigger than the ipad, but when switching view modes, you can really see the difference in the picture quality and the amount of data it doesnt cut off, as the iPad does once I rotate the screen. I give the Samsung S7 Tablet 5 Stars

Well done Samsung for doing a great job with this tablet. I sold my iPad pro 2020 to buy this tablet and I am very happy to own the Galaxy Tab S7 Plus. It was soo expensive for me but the performance of this tablet made me forget about the price, It worth it spending that much money on this tablet.The display is just soo beautiful and I cant stop admiring it. It is also fast and it can play all games with no difficulties. I have always been a big fan of Samsung products especially their Galaxy S family. I love you soo much Samsung. Keep producing good products like this for us.I am a big fan of display quality so dont even think of going back to a lower display like you did to the S21 and S21 plus which is has really make me angry. Also please dont remove the memory card slot in the future like you did to the S21 family. We really need it to boost our storage. It makes absolutely no sense to take away features that makes your devices far better than other companies devices. DONT COPY APPLES MISTAKES

I previously owned the SAMSUNG Galaxy Tab A 8.0 32 GB WiFi Android 9.0 Pie Tablet SMT290NZKAXAR but realized the mini tablet is too small for me. I then got the SAMSUNG Galaxy Tab A7 10.4 WiFi and this was perfect. I used it a lot, but I always wanted to draw. My daughter has the Apple IPad with Pencil and loves it. So, when I had the chance to get the SAMSUNG Galaxy Tab S7 WiFi S Pen Included I went for it. This tablet is awesome.This tablet is a bit heavy, but I feel like it is one of the best Android tablets I have used so far. I mainly use it to stream movies while I am on the treadmill. The picture is great and the sound is awesome. I also use it to play games which I have not noticed any lagging or any performance issues while playing the games.The pencil is very light and connects to the back magnetically on the Tablet as it charges. What is really nice is the case I have will help me not misplace or lose the pencil. The pencil is very light and very easy to use. It is actually fun to use instead of your finger. My daughter actually prefers this Samsung pencil over the Apple. The one thing I do not like is that the pencil has a flat side to it. I have gotten used to it, but I do think Samsung can come up with a better design for it.If you like Android, this is a tablet you should try out.

Pros Love the sleek look, quick response times on actions and tasks. Especially the screen. Im the type who has connectivity issues in the fingertips i.e. when I try to touch certain screens, the screens are not responsive. Not this sir, I can even HOVER above the screen to control some function, something Ive never experienced before. My cats tend to olay games with it, the old cat n mouse stuff or just simply observe the movements on whatever is happening on screen. The sound is absolutely great, I have the impression its crisper. I can go on but its difficult staying unbiased.Cons Naybe the battery life, for the weight youd think itd last longer. But then in the weekends Im non stop ob my new toy so that could be it. My main issue is not the tablet itself but with the charging cable wich broke pretty soon. The flimsyness of this cable is the main reason its not getting a solid 10, for the price you pay, Id expect a tougher and above all ticker cable.

had 10 inch tablet before, went to 11 inch. found the larger screen nice, but a bit unwieldy. glad i didnt buy the 12 inch.for some reason they provide a fast charger even though the device supports super fast charging.i read some phones will no longer come with chargers or cords under the theory that you already have them. like most people i have hampers full of chargers and cords, but i really dont want to buy a device and find i have to purchase something extra just to make it work at its best. or to buy new headphones or adapters because a headphone jack is no longer standard.there is a substantial difference between fast charging and super fast.charging, include the right charger. yes i had one, now shared between my note 10 and my new tablet. thanks samsung.

This tablet is amazing. Ive started to reach for it instead of my laptop or pull it out instead of walking to my desk. Its so lightweight and functional. I also love the display. I have an amazing tv, but I find myself streaming with it because the picture is crisp and its size makes it easier for me to take my shows along with me. The internet is fast and editing drafts for clients is a breeze now. The pen is super clutch. Ive never had a tablet with one, so this is a major upgrade. My kids love it as well and have asked to use it for their homework as its easier to complete with the touch screen. Its solved a lot of problems we had in my house as far as devices go. Now, we have a compact but powerful device we can grab and go with.

What a fantastic tablet. It took me a little while to set up, maybe an hour and a half, but only because I had to find my passwords for WiFi, Google, Microsoft, and Samsung. Smart Switch starts at the beginning so you can add all the apps and files from the device of your choosing to the tablet. The software walks you through each step. You can use your fingers on the touch screen or use the S Pen, which is super cool using air gestures. This tablet is going to be a lot of fun. I have played around with the camera and used some of the edit features, still more to go. The Google Play store and the Galaxy Store are on the home screen so you can download any apps you want. It has a very high quality screen with clear, crisp, and vivid colors.

This is a sleek and elegant device. I got mine without the keyboard because I am used to typing on the screen. It does come with the pencil which is great. It is super thin and feels good to hold. You will need to get a case to protect the device and hold the pencil when not in use. The power button on the side also serves as the fingerprint reader and works great to login effortlessly. I have not tried facial recognition yet, but that is also an option and if it is anything like the Samsung phones, it should work just fine. The device powers up quickly and setup was a breeze. Netflix, Google docs, and Gmail all work great. The camera is solid as well.Gaming works excellent. I installed a car racing game 9 GB installation and it worked without any issues and looked fantastic. One thing I did notice was that after about 10 minutes of this highintensity gaming the Tab S7 did become a bit warm, but you would probably not notice if it had a case on it. All over an excellent tablet and one I would purchase again.

Great tablet I use it for college note taking, will never go back to paper and pen unless I have to. Makes my life so much easier for turning in PDF files and no more scanning documents. I have a laptop as well, but this can replace it in most circumstances besides some software or programs mainly Proctorio for test taking.Battery life is also well above what I expected. If I only take notes I can leave in my backpack for 34 days without it needing to be charged.The only thing I wish was different was that it had the AMOLED screen. I wasnt aware that it was different from the S7 to the S7. Also the fingerprint scanner is only on the button of the S7 and I would of preferred it to have the onscreen scanner. These arent deal breakers considering the cost difference.

This was bought to replace a two and a half year old well known Chinese rand tablet that is going to my mother. The Chinese one has the same screen resolution, 4 speaker stereo sound, has multitasking support and a wireless desktop mode and also came with a stylus.My observations Both have great sound for tablets. The Chinese one is tuned by HarmanKardon. S7 by AKG which was owned by HarmanKardon. HarmanKardon is owned by Samsung. Pro Both have fantastic screens with the resolution. The S7 with its 120hz refresh rate wins out. Pro Much faster using USB to load media content on the S7. This means I will more likely cycle content on it. Much more storage and it is fast. The Chinese ones storage was only 64GB. It also had MicroSD, but performance on external storage is not good. Pro S7 has high def connection via HDMI which is nice but I will never use it Pro S7 has more and faster memory and much better performing CPU. It is snappy. Pro More sensors. Maybe worthwhile. Not used yet though Pro Support for newer BT and Wifi standards. I seldom bluetooth connect anything with a tablet. Wifi 6 is unlikely to be used. Pro Camera is much better. Not sure how often Id be taking photos or videos with a tablet when I have a phone though. Pro stylus support on this is great. Con Battery consumption on the S7 is woeful. The CPU is meant to be more power efficient and has a larger battery. Perhaps I turn off 120hz display, maybe look for other background stuff that is Samsung specific, This is the killer for me. The fast charge on this is faster than the Chinese one that also has fast charge, but Ive never had to charge the the Chinese one in the middle of the day. After a full charge, 90 minutes of browsing and battery is down to under 70. I hope I can optimise battery usage over time.Summary Great performance, great features, looks fantastic, but, I want a truly mobile device and do not want to carry the charger everywhere. This is a fail for me.

2272021I very rarely rate anything with 5 stars. Basically I reserve such a rating for something thats near perfect. The Samsung Tab S7 falls in that range. I am extremely pleased.I went with the 8 Gb RAM and 256 Gb storage primarily for the additional RAM though having 2x more storage is very nice. I did this because I have the Samsung S10 phone, which has 8 Gb RAM and now, 2 years later, it is running just as fast as the day I got it and I am a power user, with tons of apps on the phone. So, I figured a similar pairing of a super fast CPU, with 8 Gb RAM would be good for the long haul on this device the 128 Gbps Tab S7 has 6 Gb of RAM.I am coming from a Apple iPad 8th generation… which in many ways was good… but extremely frustrating, given the silly locked up ecosphere of Apple and how ridiculously backward they are with file transfers. And a Lightning port… really USB 3 is superior in every way. Then I got upset at Apple for their recent censorship of political speech. This is America, for goodness sake. We have different viewpoints and we disagree. Fine. Apple, Google, Twitter, Facebook, Amazon stop censoring usIve been looking at the Tab S7 for some time. Finally I sprung for it. WOW… this is one of the best pieces of technology I have ever used. And I have been using tech since the 1970s.Performance This tablet is far superior to any tablet Apple puts out. It is incredibly fast and with the 120 Mhz refresh rate it is buttery smooth as they say.Display While I was initially disappointed that it wasnt OLED come on, Samsung, whats up with that, nontheless, the LCD screen is superior, with excellent contrast. Many times I think Im looking at an OLED screen. I can tell that its LCD in low light video scenes, but it certainly is not bad. Note that the Tab S7 does have OLED, but I didnt want a screen that big. I much prefer the aspect ratio of the Tab S7 and S7 to Apples iPads. To me, its an excellent balance between enjoying media and getting work done I do a lot of writing and multitasking with it. The Apple iPad Pros aspect ratio looks ridiculous to me its like looking at a clunky old fashioned 4×3 TV. Part of the reason why I went with the Tab S7, along with the Samsung keyboard, is for meetings. I wanted something more subtle and compact for note taking, compared to hauling out a laptop.Audio Oh, WOW, it is incredible 4 speakers, incredible audio quality with Dolby Atmos things like videos and movies, together with the outstanding display, are incredible. Plus, having 4 speakers, no matter which orientation you are using, landscape or portrait, you always get stereo sound. Not so with the iPad with two speakers that have a silly placing at the bottom, which means if you watch multimedia in landscape mode, you have sound only on one side thats not even mono.Battery life is very good, lasting all day. Having fast charge capbility means I can get it fully recharged in about 112 hours. That blows the Apple iPad out of the water, which needs 2x as long. So, even if you need to boost the battery by 3040, plugging it in even for just 1520 minutes will cover you.Camera both cameras, front and back, are of a very good quality. Far superior to the iPad. While the cameras may not have all the functionality of my S10 which is not necessary on a tablet, Samsung did not go cheap on these cameras. They are very good quality and get the job done well. One thing I rely on is taking scans with the rearfacing camera. That works great, then you can grab the SPen for quick markups of your image. Plus the front facing camera is placed in the middle top of landscape mode, so when you are video conferencing it looks like you are looking right at the people you are in conference with, instead your eyes off to the side with the iPad.SPen I havent used a pen much before. But this one is very good. It is touch sensitive, so I imagine that it would work well with artists, similar to the Apple pen. I think it is fantastic that Samsung includes the SPen with the tablet. I love how Samsung does things like that, while Apple is miserly toward their customers. Plus, if you get the Samsung Keyboard, there is a neat out of the way storage solution for the pen that looks great. You never have to plug it in somewhere to charge it. Just magnetically snap it on the back and it charges from the tablet.Keyboard I highly recommend getting the Samsung keyboard. It offers a sharp looking slim profile and good functionality. It is a smaller keyboard than a laptop keyboard, but it doesnt take long to get used to it. The protection for the screen and back are more than adequate. However, there isnt a lot of side and corner protection, since they are exposed. You dont need to plug the keyboard in to charge or replace batteries, as it gets its charge being attached to the tablet. This is similar to what Apple does with its iPads and keyboards. For added protection when Im out and about with the tablet, Ive purchased the Insignia Universal Sleeve for Most Tablets Up to 10 at BestBuy and it fits the tablet and keyboard like a glove, adding extra padding.Software I get super frustrated with the silly hyperclosed world of Apple. Android particularly Samsung goes to great pains to work well with the outside world and a wide range of devices. Having Samsung DeX PClike desktop on the device as a builtin screen mode is awesome. Ive been using DeX since the Samsung S8, so Im familiar with it. Being able to switch to it on a tablet makes the tablet function much more like a laptop. This functionality alone makes the Tab S7 and S7 far superior to any Apple tablet. And I can activate it with one keypress on the Samsung keyboard. As far as the complaint that not all Android apps play well with a tablet, thats true to a degree. For the most part, Ive hardly had any problem with this this. A problem that may come up is some apps not wanting to go into landscape mode. But I used a 3rd party app, to force them to go landscape and its fine. Its less of a problem in DeX mode. I think with Samsung aggressively going after Apple in the tablet market, we should see other manufacturers getting into the tablet game more and noncomliant apps being pressured to update to work in landscape mode.My only complaint is that I WISH this Tab S7 would work better with my Samsung phone. I cant get text messages from my Samsung phone on my Samsung tablet And yet I can get text messages from Samsung phone on my Windows 10 laptop. I can also get text messages on my Samsung watch from my Samusng phone. But I cant get text messages from my Samsung S10 on my Samsung Tab S7 Really, Samsung Samsung uses the excuse its a Verizon limitation. Cmon Samsung, man up You are a big player in the industry… DEMAND that Verizon stop blocking such vital functionality The one area that Apple is superior is to Samsung is their tight integrations between all their products. I thought Samsung was competing with Apple This is one area where Samsung is deficient in their tablets.I am so glad I purchased the Tab S7. Samsung has done an outstanding job. I know I will enjoy the power, performance and versatility of this tablet for years to come. I highly recommend it

This tablet is beautiful. I am the music director at my church and have a lot of music to keep organized. This tablet is perfect for that. Not only for keeping my music organized, but the large screen makes it ideal for viewing full sheets of musicAlso, in the midst of this pandemic, for me, work has become a lot more mobile. It isnt so much about where you are physically located but making sure that you have the necessary tools at your disposal, wherever that may be. The battery life on this tablet, as well as the screen size, has really enabled me to work from anywhere. The weight is nice and balanced. The battery life is amazing, plus it charges very fast when needed to top off. The microphone, speakers, and camera make video conferencing a breeze.Since a Samsung Android is my cell phone of choice, I have really enjoyed the integration between these 2 devices. I am able to get my notifications, text messages, and calls on this tablet in addition to my phone. This is really helped me stay focused on my work at hand without having to reach for my phone with every notification.I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a solid tablet platform.

Pros The tablet seemed to perform ok. the camera was average at best which isnt ideal for zoom calls etc in the modern world. The batter was OK but I feel could have worked for longer.Cons The screen is terrbile, mine sufffered with a terrible yellow tint and no the glare reduction was not turned on, in fact when it was turned on the screen was basically orange. the screen was not as bright as my 2014 Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 and the whites were very yellow . I took it into store to compare and YEP it was very noticeably nicotine coloured compared with the display model. Got myself a refund. Shame on you samsung. Buyers beware, I found lots of reports of this isssue.

Love itGreat tabletI got this tablet for my son to try homeschooling on. Some of his work is online and uses programs similar to flash. Some tablets dont have the capability for that. It works just as well as his laptop. The screen is bright and crisp. The sound is also great. Theres no headphone jack, however. Youll need one that connects to the charging port, or just get wireless. It has the same set up as a phone, and will actually let you connect to your phone to allow calls, texts, ect. Games run very smoothly. Roblox looks fantastic and sounds great. He absolutely loves it. It needs a case with screen protection. Those are available online. The stylus is magnetic and sticks to the back of the tablet. We put it away, though, because we know it WILL get lost. We got a keyboard case thats great. Now its just like a laptop. The battery life is excellent. Nothing bad to say about this tablet. We will be purchasing another one. Its great.

This device is awesome is so many ways. Yet created by Samsung so many unnecessary flaws.. do you know that Dex does not work on a pc because its a tablet, but DEX works on phones Tablet devices do not support Samsung DeX on a PC the whole point of having this device is integration yet they cripple it at every turn. The device uses samsung cloud that wants you to have a residential or free Microsoft onedrive account you cant use your Office 365 onedrive with 1TB of space you pay for, the list goes on and on.. its a good tablet, but dont think youre going to integrate it with your other stuff.. only get this if you just want a cool tablet.. the commercials are very misleading.

Both my husband and Is computer was on the fritz and we were in the market for something new. We werent sure whether to go the tablet or lap top route since we didnt use the lap top much. When we saw the Samsung Galaxy S7 we jumped on board It has great reviews from experts and we were not let down. Its a decent size screen and connects easily to the keyboard to make it feel more like a lap top. Its easy to carry around in our portable case we bought separately and charges fast. We love that it can quickly switch between DEX desktop mode and tablet version. Since my daughter watches her shows in the tablet its best to use the tablet mode for that. We also love the facial recognition ability to unlock the tablet. It has a high quality camera as well that will now be my go to for birthday parties, milestones for my kids and more Its incredibly fast and has a great picture as well. The storage is good for us as we wont take all of pictures if there and most apps like Google now store our documents. I would highly recommend this tablet

In 2019 I became a Samsung convert, moving from another major brand and OS. Phone, tablet and watch. This year Ive upgraded my Galaxy Tab S6 and my Note 10 to Note 20 Ultra and now Tab S7 saving my pennies now to upgrade my watch to series 3.I have been so impressed by my Tab S6, which is as pristine as the day I got it, and was tempted to move up on capability and size. Im delighted I did, its stunning.The power, performance, sound, flexibility and speed are just oustanding, and that screen is just incredible. I thought the S6 was slick, but the S7 is mind blowing.Rather than just a cover this time, Ive gone for the keyboard cover. Ill admit what sold that was the 50 discount when buying as a bundle. However, Im sitting using it now to write this review, and its just another huge plus. Its super to use. The keyboard section itself is very easily detachable, if you just need the tab, leaving the rear cover and pen holder in place for protection. I had read several negative comments about the cover, but cant see why theyre justified other than its only in black and doesnt offer the colour options to compliment the tab itself which in my case is the gorgeous mystic bronze.One thing I have noticed is the speed of wifi connection and reliability versus the S6 tab.The Switch from old to new was also a breeze, making it up and running pretty quickly. Value wise, it looks top heavy at first but when you do a comparison with the alternatives, especially if theres bundle support available, its pretty good.The only disappointment in the purchase process was the inability to trade in. Only the S6 lite was an option and not surprisingly, as many others have commented on, the trade in values are poor especially when you know how well you take care of your kit.And for all those people, including some of the media reviews, who say you cant really use it as a laptop, or it doesnt work well with Office 365….you either havent done it properly, dont know how to use it, or work for a competitor

My s7 had a problem when I set it up I set it up via fingerprint and pattern but when I turned it off the tab wouldnt let me back in again it wanted the 4 digit pin that I never set it up with so I was stuck I didnt know how to sort the problem out until I had a brainwave contact Samsung so I did and the rest is history as its working fine apart from one tiny problem when I want to crop a photo the tab wont let me crop from the top Ive got to move the the photo up from the bottom to be cropped you wouldnt expect this from a 800 tablet I fear it maybe a software issue to do with Google gallery. I recently had a 200 Samsung galaxy tab A from 2018 and that didnt have any issues with cropping photos. Sometimes Samsung, expensive isnt always the best. But overall the s7 WiFi is a brilliant tab with good specs but for the price I payed it should be dust and waterproof and it should have come with 12gb of ram rather than the poultry 6gb which is the same as the S5e, S6 and now the s7. As samsung have brought out 2 new phones this year with 12gb of ram I would of thought samsung would naturally bring out a new tab with the same ram 12gb but 6gb is a bit pathetic paired with this new qualcom processor I feel but I suppose theres always next year or the year after or the year after that to improve things and make the Samsung galaxy tab great once again, world leading and world beating in my view.

A great android tablet if not one of the best out there today. Sleek and thin design. Beautiful displayed graphics.Quality 45Design 45Value 55Pros brilliant display, amazing speakers, the S pen is quick to respond and such a joy to use the note app. fingerprint reader. facial recognitionCons battery wont last the full day of work. Android apps. Would need a case. Cant multitask well.Overall 45It is an allscreen tablet with thin bezels and an aluminum frame. Its what I need when I look for a tablet about its screen. The tablet is thin and light 10 x 6.5 x 0.2 inches and 1.1 pounds. I can use it comfortably for hours. On the back, there is a horizontal magnetic strip for the included SPen and a small camera raised panel.There is a USBC connector for power and data transfer on the right, and on the top edge there is a power button which also is a fingerprint sensor and the volume toggle. However, when I use landscape mode, the fingerprint is located at an awkward place for my fingers to reach. Theres an SD memory reader for expanding local storage and a pogo connector on the bottom for connecting the keyboard not included. A pair of speakers sit on either side of the tablet.Im very impressed with the stunning display of this tablet the colors are vivid and very crisp off of a 4K video on social media. Its bright enough to use in direct sunlight without any problems. It has a buttery smooth display and refresh rate.One of my favorites is the sound quality Its so good. The echoing mixed with a little bit of bass. Watching movies and music videos on this tablet is terrificWhen I have more than two dozen apps and as many tabs open, things start to slow down and lag. The battery also didnt last all day for me.I dont use tablets for photography purposes. But the front facing camera is good for zoom video conference calls. The rear camera is great as well. In full lighting, the rear cameras can take nice photos.I love the notetaking app on this tab Samsung Notes app sync across its phones, tablets and even its PC app. Theres also an ability to record audio and insert it into a notes file. I can hear what I said while I took specific notes. Samsung Notes also offers to convert handwriting into more legible words. However, multitasking is not all there yet. The Spen feels like an actual pen which is great. The tip is soft. It feels natural to write. Doodling is a fun experience with Samsung Notes. There is a sound effect that comes on whenever the pen tip touches the screen…i dont know how to feel about it yet.Overall The tablet has a nice display, good speakers, a fast processor. Its not up for multitasking like Ipad Air. However, with all the pros that it has, I consider it to be my mid to high end tablet.

The Samsung Galaxy Tablet S7 was easy to setup and use. I had no problems setting up the device and downloading various apps from the Play Store and using them. I also was able to easily use the internet and watch videos on YouTube. There was a pen included and to charge the pen it needed to be attached to the back of the tablet which meant that while charging the tablet did not sit flat on a surface. Also, I never really used the pen because the touch screen worked very well with your finger. I am almost 60 years old and I am not very technical when it comes to electronics. I found that Samsung Galaxy made it simple and user friendly for people in my age group and that it was not exclusively marketed for a younger crowd with better computer skills. Getting back to watching YouTube videos. My wife has a tablet from a different manufacturer and the sound is not very loud. As you age your hearing starts to diminish so I was pleasantly surprised that the volumespeaker on this device was very loud if I wanted it to be. All in all, I am very pleased with this device and rate it at 5 stars. Thank you and God Bless…

I am going from a Samsung Tab S4 with keyboard to the Tab S7 with keyboard. Right off the bat, the Tab S7 looks and feels like a well built machine. It has strong metal edges and has thin bezels around the screen. The side buttons have a good tactile pop and are responsive. It is thin and light for easy portability and storage. I used the Samsung migration app to transfer my setting and apps which was quick and efficient. Within 15 minutes the transfers were complete and I was ready to go. Other basic setup steps are straightforward and easy to do.The screen is crisp and clean. While not an OLED like its larger counterpart probably to save battery, it is very smooth with its 120hz refresh rate with vibrant colors clear text. The keyboard separate and pen included is mostly a positive experience. The pen magnetically attaches to the side of the tablet which is concealed and protected by a magnetic flap when not in use. Here, it recharges and pairs with the tablet and makes it easily accessible. When writing, its is responsive and is a great way to provide input. The cover also helps in compensating for the camera bump on the back which could be an issue for those without the keyboard. I could see users who dont have the keyboard attachment may feel like the pen is going to fall off or get lost. The keys and trackpad are responsive and feel as good as the majority of laptop keyboards of the same size. My only issue is that when holding the Tab S7 like a tablet the back keyboard can slide around and not feel very stable. The Tab S4 I had earlier was stable in this position and is would be my only issue with the updated design.General performance is snappy and responsive. I can see the 6 next to the Wifi symbol which indicates it is using the abilities of my Wifi 6 router which is great for XBOX streaming. Apps load quickly I did not have a single hiccup when apps are being used. Overall this is a great tablet and can really show what Android is capable of. Its has speed, plenty of memory and upgrades that will keep the TabS7 a reliable device for many years. I would recommend planning for the keyboard attachment sold separately as many design choices intend for you to have both for a smooth experience.

Im a practical user with very basic needs. Yet this device, Tab S7 surprises me in many ways. Its speed is superb. Its brightness and sharpness tells me that nothing is lacking and yet nothing is redundant. I got this when the Keyboard Cover is bundled as a gift I believe its price is included in what I paid though. I really love the super quiet keyboard, sometimes I think I am working on a computer instead of working on a tablet. I almost went for an iPad but Im glad that I did not. This device does everything I NEED I dont know how useful the S Pen is, my work doesnt require me to use it. I know the price of this device is much cheaper than its rival but I really wish it can be even much cheaper soon for other users, so more users will benefit from this quality product. Great device

I must say that this is my first android tablet. My mom has this same tablet and I had used hers before getting my own. I love the screen and the vibrant color display. The set up was pretty simple, I was able to get my email setup quickly and download my favorite apps seamlessly. The keyboard is something that I am getting use to with the Samsung Dex feature. I watched a couple of movies which displayed in HD and the sound was awesome. I played a few games and the graphics were great. I also started using the tablet for work since I have been working from home a few days a week. It handles word programs very well. I am able to navigate multiple screens with ease. It seems to hold a charge extremely well and it charges fast. The S Pen is new for me. I learned that you can use it with gestures which takes a little getting use to but its a nice feature. I am glad I purchased this tablet, it is worth it.

I was really excited to test the 2020 version of Samsungs latest tablet. I really love the 11 inch form factor. This tablet is not too big or small, its just the right size. The quad speaker setup sounds really good. I love to watch movies in bed with it. The tablet is also pretty snappy. I can open multiple apps and multi task with ease. Having Microsoft Office integration really helps me out for my business needs. I also love to play puzzle games with the tablet. I have more than enough real estate on the tablet to play comfortably for hours.I wanted to pair my Bluetooth keyboard, mouse and headphones and they all connected in seconds. This tablet has so many features that Im still finding out new things about this tablet everyday. Im happy to own this premium tablet and it serves all of my personal and business needs.

I must admit that I absolutely love this tablet. I had a few Android tablets in the past, and they served their purpose, but they were never really fast or smooth. This is different. It is quite responsive. The Spen works perfectly.I wasnt sure if I needed another tablet, having recently purchased a 13.3 2inone with Wacom support. However, I truly prefer notetaking and sketching on the Tab s7. One of the handiest things I do daily is signing PDF files. No more printing, signing, scanning, then emailing.I also underestimated how much I would enjoy consuming media on this device. Paired with Buds , it is an excellent form of entertainment both at home and on the go.

I like the screen size, also how thin the tablet is. The sound is really amazing. I have had previous tablets and always had the volume at max. This one however rarely needs to go to the max volume. For streamed movies and TV the sound is better than what you normally get with any device. It really shines. The bio metric unlock on the power button works great. I really like that feature. The resolution of the sceen is of course outstanding. The only thing that I would change is the diameter and lenghth of the pen. It is a little skinny and short for my large hands. Fast processor, great graphics and outstanding sound what more can you ask for I highly recommend it.

I love my Samsung S7 Plus. Several years ago, I purchased the SM T900 and still use it. The Samsung S7 Plus is an exciting upgrade. I got 512gb. I believe it is worth the extra cost. I only have 32gb on my SM T900 and I have to uninstall apps and delete pictures to make room for app upgrades, for example Amazon Prime. The Samsung S7 Plus so far is performing splendidly. Now, if I can just get all my Samsung devices to stop chirping to each other. It is fantastic that all my Samsung products work together. Also, there is a 32 inch Samsung screen that I would have bought to go with it if the sales associate had told me about it. It gives you a computer type experience. And sometimes it is nice to have a larger viewing screen. I will probably pick one up this summer when I am in town.

This tablet knocks my socks off. The display is absolutely gorgeous. The sound from 4 speakers is amazing, and theres even an equalizer. I can stream videos all day, Zoom for happy hour, and still have lots of battery power left. Performance has been flawless.Setup was super easy. The Smart Switch software copied the apps and data from my android phone with almost no effort on my part. Fingerprint recognition on the power button works surprisingly well.Im really enjoying the DeX mode, an alternate interface that closely resembles a Windows desktop. In DeX mode, I think the Tab S7 with an external keyboard would feel a lot like a laptop.The S Pen stylus is easy and fun for jotting notes and for marking up photos and PDFs. Using the S Pen for routine navigation keeps fingerprints off the screen. The S Pen is also capable of air gestures with some apps. So far, I havent found air gestures particularly useful, since my favorite apps dont support that feature. But android apps can be quirky, and I dont blame the tablet for that.My only complaint with the Tab S7 is very trivial the S Pen attaches to the back of the tablet on a weakly magnetic charging strip, and its too easy for the stylus to be bumped off that strip. I solved that problem by getting a tablet cover with a secure slot for the S Pen.Bottom line Im totally thrilled with the Galaxy Tab S7.

Ive only had this Galaxy Tab S7 for a couple days but Im loving it It takes THE BEST photos Ive ever taken on any camera or device. Beautiful, bright, crisp photos I love the pen too Ill be using it for work QC Manager to go out into the field to take photos of welds and work performed and to do reports on while Im not in my office and it will be great for that. My only concern is I have an Apple phone and accounts and I dont know if Ill get the full benefits of the tablet but Im still learning how to use it. Ill say this though…I have the Apple tablets and its way better than the two newer versions of those It makes me want to swap my IPhone for a new Galaxy Highly recommended

Unbelievable thin. Super powerful. The screen like all Samsung screens are incredibly bright, vibrant and all round just look amazing. Charging speed is okay. It supports 45w charging but ships with only a 15w charger. Luckily my galaxy s20 shipped with a 25w charges so it charges in around 2 hours which is good. Additionally, at this price point it wouldve been nice to see additional S pen tips, and the keyboard case seems to me to be unreasonably priced. An early bird offer or a reduced price when pre ordering wouldve been nice to see. Perhaps with the new collaboration with Microsoft Dex could be improved or more desktop features could be added to further close the gap between tablet and laptop. The power of the incredible chip inside seems to be somewhat wasted.

They asked for a review so here it is.The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 works much faster than my four year old ASUS tablet from Verizon. Beyond that with the exception of bells and whistles, including the SPen, I would have been well served had I chosen the S6 tablet. Having purchased the S7 and not the S6 I cannot comment on the included apps which Im sure are available at the Samsung Store.The purpose for my purchase was to come as near as possible to using tablet as a laptop for word processing and light spreadsheet work. I have found the included apps wanting in that regard. Microsoft offers Office 365 for a fee and although that would meet my expectations in functionality Im not going that route.Overall, if you are the type of person who reads Email, sends cat pictures to wherever, draws images or uses a pen for writing notes, or travels light electronically this unit should fill the bill. I would recommend purchasing a FINTIE case and keyboard from Amazon instead of the Samsung duo for those who are frugal. The keyboard is Bluetooth and I have not had any difficulties with it. The case is somewhat awkward as you have to reposition the keyboard if you choose to use the tablet in the upright supported mode. But it works for me. I also purchased a 128gb Samsung EVO memory card for storage of files so as not to crowd the onboard memory consisting of 128gb.Ive only been in possession of this tablet for a short time so this is the extent of my evaluation.

i absolutely love my tablet. i purchased my tablet through att so it is actually a galaxy tab s7 5g 128gb model but this is the closest on samsungs website. i owned a galaxy note pro 12.2 and, until the tab s7, was my favorite device, of any os. i had a lenovo moto tab 4 and then a galaxy tab 55e,which i liked a lot. i decided to upgrade as the s pen and 5g connectivity of the galaxy tab s7 series was very attractive. i love my tab s7 5g while i have a note 9 512 as my phone, and have had note phones for many years, i use the spen on this tablet all the time. i use the spen with my phone and tablet at the same time. tablet has not glitched in a months with lots of use in a dusty environment. s pen attaches magnetically as well, super nice.

I use this very frequently as I am full time med student. This tablet does me great for ease of access, great compatibility with other devices, even connection with my computers for file transfers.Ive never had it glitch out on me and I love the Dex option that turns the tablet into more of a computer style operating system even though it makes for a very small screen. I also love the speakers on this tablet When I am traveling and want to watch a movie, this tablet does the job beautifully.My biggest complaint is the connection with the pen. While it still does me great and note taking is very easy, the pen sometimes doesnt have the greatest precision and sometimes glitches on me.1 sometimes the pen does not have great precision. Where it writes is not always where the tip of my pen is. Unfortunately, Samsung did not create this match to be able to calibrate pen after purchase. Ive especially noticed spots on the screen where this precision is worse. Like little circular areas where the pen is not calibrated correctly. This can be incredibly frustrating when you are trying to take notes in that part of the screen.2 Occasionally the pen will glitch and be writing even though the pen is not touching the screen. If you hold the pen close to the screen a dot will appear so you know where the pen may start to write upon touching the screen. But sometimes as soon as this dot appears the tablet thinks the pen is writing, it makes for very odd looking notes to say the least.I did a lot of research before purchasing this tablet. I also debated between the surface pro and an iPad. While they all have pros and cons, ultimately this tablet still ended up being the best option for me. The surface pro pen may have been nicer, but I didnt need a fully functional laptop as I already have a great one. The iPad may take more efficient notes, but the price and compatibility with my Microsoft computers was my biggest hesitation. I still am very happy with my decision, although, I may have gone with the larger screen looking back….

The best tablet I have personally ever owned. Im not really a huge fan of tablets, I bought this for business use and for what I do, its perfect. The screen is beautiful, but not one of the best Samsung makes. It is fast, responsive, has a lot of memory and it is expandable I bought the 512gb version, and added a 512gb sd card, 8 gigs of RAM not bad, but my phone has 12gb, ipad currently maxes out at 6gb. Its decent for games. As far as Android goes, this is hands down the best tablet Ive seen. I work in and Android and Windows ecosystem, so Ive never purchased an ipad, which have been the best tablets for years. I think this is an equivalent offering for Android users competes well with both the ipad air 4th gen and current ipad pro and a much better value with the Spen included for free I paid 630.00 before tax for mine on sale. Samsung Dex is included with it and is a decent attempt to turn this tablet into a laptop with the keyboard attached. Dex also improves user experience with some apps, and though Android apps will never be optimized as well as ipad apps, it is a nice improvement.

Really disappointed with the new Samsung products in general, and the design philosophy they seem to be pursuing. Ive owned several of their produts in the past, and along with the new phone I bought, Ive come to the solid conclusion that its time for me to switch to something else. Heres why No more audio jack. Which means youll have to use Bluetooth headphones. What this wireless approach doesnt account for is the lag you get with Bluetooth. Theres no way to truly sync sound on it. This makes a big difference if you ever wanted to use the device for anything music related, or perhaps to edit simple videos on the fly. In all honesty, when you want to do actual work, get yourself a computer. You can get a good one for a bit more than what youre paying on this.. On top of that, I would say the interference is the single thing that most drives me up a wall. If youre outside with Bluetooth, and a plane flies by, your music is interrupted, Ive noticed this with cars as well. I wonder if whoever made this brilliant decision to scrap the audio jacks in place of the Bluetooth even listens to music, or better yet, even used this product. I have.When I talked to Samsung, after they finally figured out that this wasnt something that could be fixed with a software update, their solution was to buy a USBC audio adapter. I shouldnt have to, but did. If you do go that route, you can probably get something here at Best buy for cheaper than what they will try to sell you makes you wonder, doesnt it. Ive seen them for about eight dollars, give or take.Another consideration about the dependency on Bluetooth is that it will consume your battery. On this tablet it hasnt been too big a deal because I dont use it as frequently as say, my Samsung phone, but I would rather just avoid things that are going to drain the batteries. Default apps. The new android OS on this doesnt really let you choose the default apps. Any time I install a new app, say a photo editor or a music program, itll set itself up as the default for that file format, which is really irritating when you just want to look at a photo, instead of edit it, or when you want to listen to a song instead of creating music. It used to be that you could set file extensions im the settings for any task, but now its really limited I mean really, all you can pick is the internet browser and very few other things. Samsung is quick to pass the blame onto Google for designing the OS, but in that case shame on Samsung for approving the OS for that device.And again shame on fools like me for falling for it.

okay so i never understood the point of a tablet. but recently ive been needing something between my small phone and my dinosaur laptop that will let me download, read, and markup research papers for my work. i also wanted a good note taking device. i did a lot of research beforehand and was extremely nervous about investing in a tablet im poor and finally decided to go with this one.i love this tablet. it does everything i need for my work and is extremely convenient. its super fast, has a long battery life, great sound, the works. the pen technology in tandem with the samsung notes app is brilliant and it will not detect your hand while youre writing. ive always been an apple person and this is my first android device. i am very impressed with this piece of technology.

Well I was a bit worried to be honest as my last 2 tablet from samsung was amoled. But I thought Id gave them a chance. And the screen really surprised me to be honest, I find it better on my eyes and cant see much of a difference at all. The 120 refresh rate is very nice, the 6gb of ram is enough hard core gaming zero lagg as the process carries it. The build quality is superb looks and feels more premium than my s20 to be honest, I like that I can take calls and receive texts on this aswel, when connected to my phone. I thank samsung for the 3 years updates policy about time. All in all this is a fantastic table which has actually taken me by surprise. Looking toward to the next phone a tablet in a few years time. Will take pleasure to upgrade as you give higher trade in value. Thanks samsung

As far as tablets go, Ive pretty much only used Apple iPads. While at work, I needed to sign a document. I figured that should be easypeasy with a 700 iPad and a pencil right Wrong I tried everything I could to just sign a word document using my iPad and I coudnt do it. The only option that I had was to subscribe to an Adobe account and use Acrobat if I wanted to do it with my tablet. That was enough for me to consider alternatives. Enter the Tab S7. How refreshing it was to get everything right out of the box The tablet, the pen, the charger, everything. Setup was simple and easy, and get this I was able to sign that same document that Apple wouldnt let me do using Microsoft Word from an Android tablet. I guess thats one of the features that Apple prohibits on its tablets. Anyways, I dont get the hype with Apple iPads. This little guy right here acts more of a laptop computer than iPads ever did. Like iPads, it also has a fully functional keyboard with mouse support. And unlike iPads, it has a fully functional file management system, and a USBC port that supports 3rd party storage devices, like SSDs. I can literally use this as a portable computing device that gives most of the features as a laptop computer. Amazing tablet.

It has been sometimes now that I have tried this tablet.We bought it with my spouse to replace the previous generation tablet with a Bluetooth keyboard we had with a new version of it.We also have a tablet from another brand, and we were not happy at all with the battery life of this tablet. With this tablet, the battery life is amazing.I was supposed to use it for work, but unfortunately, most of my software need a card reader, and it is not compatible with the tablet for the moment, which is a bit of a let down for me.I finally use it for entertainment streaming moviestv shows and the sound is so impressive The colors are very bright which is the case with most Samsung tablettv.Finally, my wife who works home as a developer, is the one using it more than me. She draws all the time with it, and she loves it. She also uses it to test most website she is creating and the DEX which is a desktop like mode for your tablet is always on. Be careful, this mode tends to drain the battery depending on which app you are using, though.Overall, I am satisfied with the tablet. It is a great improvement from the ones we had before.

As an old geek I have always loved technical gadgets. I own four computers, smart TVs, DVR, DVD and a smart phone. For some unknown reason I never considered a tablet as it is not something I thought I would use that much. I do have a Fire Reader that I use for reading books only. This tablet has changed my mind and I have been having so much fun with it exploring all I can do with it. It was simple and easy to setup and even the internet wifi connection was a breeze. And as you can see from my picture the display is sharp and beautiful. I have only scratched the surface but something tells me I will be gifting someone my Fire Reader as this tablet offers way more functionality. I am also looking forward to exploring apps to enhance my experience like adding extra storage and one of the multi color keyboards to make it like a mini laptopIncluding an S Pen with the tablet was a great decision by Samsung so you can get the feel of the tablets full functionality right out of the box Things I liked about the S pen you to take notes right on the screen even set up favorite line sizecolors and switch between them with the press of a button attaches to a magnet on the back of the tablet so you can store when not using you can setup air actions to control gestures using the pen although I have not yet done so I am looking forward to exploring the Samsung store for a drawing appI know a lot of people only thing of younger folks when considering tech gadgets as gifts. Please do not overlook the elderly. Buy them one and help teach them to use it. I personally think they would love it I am so delighted I was given the opportunity to try one of these tablets and look forward to a lot of long use from it. You cannot go wrong with one of these. I highly recommend it.

Ok so i own galaxy tab S2 8 and galaxy note 9.I was pretty happy with my galaxy tab S2 but after 5 years of reliable service i wanted to upgrade. This 11 256gig 8gig of RAM tablet is amazing. I was worried that i would not like the TFT display as i always used QLED displays but with that 120Hz refresh rate its the most beatifull screen i have ever seen on a smart device. Its exessivelly bright and it has the blue light filter so for evening use its very easy on the eyes. Battery life, OH YEAH The scree on time blows me away. I was use to my poor tab S2 screen on time and was worried with this new one but have no fear, it has nothing to do with the old stuff this tablet last and last. I bought a 45W charger and boom Im happy i chose the 8gig ram model, its overkill most people will say but i like the fact that this will never be an issu and ill never say I shoud of got the 8gig. The s pen works great and cant find new ways of using it. This tablet exeds my expectations by far.

I like the tablet, cant say I notice a lot if improvement over my old S2 tablet though. I upgraded because I wanted the pen and keyboard features. However the keyboard cover is still not available and Samsung have given no release date for it despite it appearing in all its marketing for the Tab S7. As I am waiting for this cover, I have the issue that the pen doesnt safely store on the S7 without a cover.Customer service have been very unhelpful.I traded in my S2 for 50 and have subsequently been told to pay Samsung back 25 as there is a scratch on the screen. This is laughable as I highly doubt Samsung are going to resell the old S2 but yet another example of awful service. Think maybe it is time to give up on being a loyal Samsung customer.

when it comes to gaming this tablet is a real beast. it has enough power to play any android game and have some to spare. the built in game launcher with game booster and game booster plus makes sure your gaming experience is optimized. this tablet runs cool even after hard gaming. the keyboard case is pretty amazing. nice that it comes in two separate pieces. can use the kick stand back independently from the keyboard. great for watching movies. the keyboard is easy to attach. a few cons. the speakers on the side get muffled when holding in certain ways. bottom two speakers for the most part. the tablet is only android 10, even though android 11 was out before release. samsung still uses usb a to c instead of usb c on both ends.

I was thrilled to know that Samsung created two different sizes of the newer Tab S series that can replace my Tab S6 and Tab S6Lite. I was looking at the Tab S7plus, but again, the SAMOLED screen hurt my eyes. but was excited to see that the S7 uses an IPS screen. Im not going to debate which one has a better screen, but for my own experience and purposes, Ive felt that the S7 was more suitable for me.I was amazed at how light it is, weighing in at 502g. It has the straight edges that gives it that premium, iPadPro look. Looking at the 11 inch screen, you would not have guessed that it was IPS with the 266ppi. It looks amazing More clear compared to the iPad Airs or even the Pros.This tablet is very snappy, and the 6GB of RAM helps. It loads fast, the 120gHz is very noticeable. It comes with 8000mAh of Battery life, which is also great and that for the 24 hours Ive had it, starting fully charge and watching some videos and light internet usage, Im down to 90.The base model comes with 128GBs of internal storage, able to add an extra Terabyte by microSD card. Ive felt that is more than enough for me.Some concerns that I have focus on the Spen. It does not feel good connecting it to the back, gets annoying as you are trying to hold it because the Spen gets in the way. It can also attach to the Left side of the tablet, but I would recommend getting a case to attach the pen. Also, there is no 3.5 headphone jack so you would need either a USBC adapter for headphones or use bluetooth. I was able to connect my airpods and they sound great, just wished they provided you with either an adaptor or a 3.5 headphone jack.Overall, I am really impressed with the S7. I am happy that I went with this instead of the S7plus.

I do have to say, I was impressed by the crisp images on this tablet. Although when using apps all the content can not be seen on all of them and you need to go to the full web site, thats why I gave it a 4 star rating. It has a great drawing app, see picture that if you take the time you can learn to do anything you can imagine with it. The Pen which is included iPads you need to buy your own, allows you to make even the worst hand writing be recognized by the app. Although I did notice that even when turning on the Auto Correct a few times it did not catch a misspelled word, which if youre writing an important document can put you in a bad situation. So it has wonderful things about it that everyone will love, and like any product others will find certain things that are just a deal breaker for them. I myself am willing to look past some of the flaws when there are so many great attributes. Plus for what you get in the whole package its definitely worth it.

I had owned tablets in the Samsung family as well as other brands and this is hands down my favorite one. The screen is the perfect size without feeling too small, and the display colors are vivid. I love watching movies in this amazing display. I m happy that it has the fingerprint scanner as a button on the side of the tablet. I personally like this instead of an onscreen reader because I can touch the side button and unlock my tablet before I open the case. At first I thought I might not have much use for the S Pen, but I am surprised to say I have been using it nonstop. During work hours I edit a bunch of PDFs, so it comes in handy as well as when I need to take quick notes. During my spare time I use the pen for drawings and picture taking. I just started using the Dex mode and its super convenient because I do plan on using this tablet for work too. I am very happy with this purchase and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a tablet powerful enough to do any work yet compact enough to take anywhere.

I bought this tab as a cheaper alternative for my aging 2013 iPad. I use it mainly to play Tapped Out, use social networking apps, use travel apps while traveling and maybe reading some times. I do not use it to watch shows or movies, as I prefer TV. I do not use phone or tablet to take pictures when traveling, so camera resolution feature unimportant to me.Pros of this tablet Sufficient speed for non memoryintensive games and general surfing and social media apps Face recognition for unlocking works most of the time Has expandable memory. I am using this tablet as my music streaming device by moving all my mp3s on the memory card. Battery life is satisfactory definitely not as long lasting as iPadCons of the tablet The biggest problem with this tablet is even though it uses Android OS, it still operates in its own Samsung environment. It wont tether to my Pixel phone or to my Windows 10 laptopcomputer. Unlike a seamless experience MacOS environment over iPhoneiPadMac, this tablet operates in a standalone environment. I cannot receive phone calls or text messages over this tablet Even funnier, it wont talk to Samsung TV, I had to install the SmartThings app for my Smart TV on my Pixel, as this app cannot be installed ont he tablet. Using Chromecast with this tablet is a big hassle. Unlike Pixel, this tablet cannot directly connect with Chromecast. You have to use the Google Home app or the feature within the app to use Chromecast Photo app is a joke. You can only stream photos over chromecast after displaying a picture, but the slideshow feature will only work in the main menu of photo app. Worse, you cannot adjust the speed at which image will change.TLDR It is a decent tablet if on sale, but go for an iPad if you can afford one. If you have an Android phone, this tablet is definitely not a companion for your phone.

I previously used the Samsung galaxy tab s6. Now, I received the new galaxy tab 7 with keyboard, it was huge in size but yet fit perfectly in my hand and it had a keyboard with it, which was good, and better is I got tab case too. Its a great deal to get this amazing huge tab with everything for such a price. Its considerably bigger than my current tablet and very well made. In my limited use, the camera seems to be ok. I like how fast, the device is. It was smooth with a 120hZ screen refresh rate. It was buttery smooth with a big screen, I can definitely feel the difference. Taking about big things, audio on this device is worth mentioning. The four speakers available on the device provide loud and clear volume. The quality of the audio is near perfect for movies, songs, games, and series. The battery life of the device is really good. I could use this device for 10 hrs watching 3 movies. This is a workhorse. I was able to multitask like, watch videos, and check my Gmail all at the same time. There is a feature, where you can sync your phone to the tab and get all the calls and messages, just like you receive on your phone. Its a wonderful feature. I totally recommended this to people who want to use a single device with a big screen for allpurpose. This device comes with a pen that is a lot better than the old one. It fast, smooth, and easy to grip. I also got a case and keypad case. The setup was pretty simple and I was majorly using the keyboard for email and document preparation purposes. Now I stopped using my indisplay keyboard altogether. Its also a very good use to cover the tab as well. The case comes with a flexible stand which I can angle the tab to my convenience while watching movies. Pros excellent display powerful speakers Good Spen design Long Battery life Performace 120HZ Smooth display Cons need Improvement inapp ecosystem expandable internal memory weight of the tab.

Ive had this tablet for two weeks now and I love it I ended up purchasing the 256gb modeI in bronze. I was looking for something to bridge between my phone and laptop and this tablet is it. The 11 screen is perfect. Its big but its still easy to hold in bed and on the couch. As nice as it is, I found the 12.4 Tab S7 Plus screen a little too big for my needs. The screen on the Tab S7 is really nice Different media look fantastic on it. Pictures are nice and crisp and video looks great When doing some research on the Tab S7, I was disappointed that it had an LCD screen versus an Amoled like the S7 Plus. It was almost a deal breaker for my until I compared the two in the store. Even though it doesnt have quite the contrast as the Amoled, the colors still look really great and 120 Hz screen makes everything feel nice and smooth. It also nice and bright too The S pen works well From what I can tell, the spen does everything that my spen can do with my Note 20 Ultra. As far as sound, the four speakers sound great All in all, Im very happy with it so far. Fast tablet, premium build and fantastic screen

I bought this tablet because I use my bicycle for basic transportation and wanted something small to use for basic work email, Office 365, web browsing, etc. that I could easily toss in a backpack and take with me. I also bought the Samsung keyboard. Im not sure that was a good choice its expensive and there are many others available for less money.The build quality is excellent. It works well, has a lovely screen and solid battery life. It comes with an S Pen, which has very low latency and feels far better on the screen than an Apple Pencil does on an iPad.My two discontents with the device have to do with software. First, I have a Samsung phone. I used to use Apple products, and so expected a high degree of integration and an intuitive way of setting that integration up. I will not go back to Apple products due to their expense and the inconvenience of working with Office 365 under iOS. That said, Samsungs ecosystem doesnt approach the seamless integration of Apples. My second issue is Dex. Its a fabulous concept, and I imagine it will get better. But on both my phone and my tablet, a number of apps dont open or work right under Dex. In some cases, those that do open dont render well they look very different and work differently. Finally, under Dex, MS SharePoint doesnt really work at all. Thats a bummer, since our office uses SharePoint extensively.Ill continue to use this little device, and theres a lot here to love. But eventually Im probably going to buy an updated version of the Surface Go, which will just run everything I use under WIndows.

I hav been a samsung only for 13 years. I returned mine after 24 hours. I am still waiting for the approval to return my 1100 paper wait. It keep locking upfreezing. It could not multi task in any way as advertised. Any app I used would freeze and crash. The pen where the flat spot is and the button dont line up with how it wants to lay in your hand. Also for me when trying to use the pen didnf work didnt do anything. Unless I just touched the screen with it. Very pore design on the pen. The only think I liked was the sound was amazing and how big it was. Over all waste of my life and time buying this.. I am just So disappointed….like what not I need to get an apple or something when I have had only samsung for 13 years.. I am just not going to get a tablet now. O and dont forget ANY APP that uses the pen you have to pay for….. CHEAPP

I purchased this for my daughter going to college but after opening it and playing with it i decided to keep it and buy another one for her. The Galaxy Tab S7 is a top notch tablet for both business and pleasure. Battery life will last all day same as a cell phone, the Tab S7 is capable of hours of game play, social networking, and any other activities I wish to do. The tablet has great sound, beating that of any other tablet in the same price range. There is no sound distortion at all, and the color display is vivid and bright. The devices cameras take high quality photos similar to what one would take with a cell phone camera. Game play on the tablet is fast and efficient, with no issues based on file size or anything of the sort. The adjustable brightness settings are appropriate for both indoor and outdoor game play or business. The picture versus screen size ratio is preferable over other competitors tablets that have too much unused space. The included S Pen is a superb feature that sets the tablet apart from competitors. The pen provides smooth and effortless writing and drawing functions without the stuttering effects of cell phone stylus pens. The pressure sensitivity is a bonus feature that I was not expecting and really enjoyed it. All in all, this tablet is worth every penny, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a userfriendly, enjoyable tablet experience.

Using the Samsung STab 7 a really enjoyable experience. While Im not the most technical user in the house I can instantly see the difference between this tablet and others on the market. It has a sturdy feeling and has well built buttons and inputs.As a secondary user I can mention the two more frequent uses for this tablet that I have experienced. Beyond simple browsing which is fast and very smooth I have used the camera and pen features. The camera works very well and does a good job in capturing images. While video chatting remotely, others have been able to see and hear me clearly which was a good complement to the device. The pen is pressure sensitive which is neat for making sketches and drawings with the various drawing apps. Im still getting used to the pen shortcut features but have been using them more frequently the more I use the Tab S7.The only major problem is that we only have one in the house I would recommend this device to any android fan who wants a powerful tablet, handy features and wants the flexibility to be for fun and work.

i got the new tab s7 256gb to replace my 2014 12.2 note pro, that has now bit the dust.ive only had it for 2 weeks and havent used it,other than the set up proceedure. this tabletnot only beautiful, its also a fantastic performer. im surprised at how thin it is, especially when compared to the note pro..i just hope there arent any bugs that might pop up, as it just got released ln october.i looked at the few other android tablets and this is by far the best out there. my only issue is with the fingerprint sensor ..i put a quality glass screen protector on it, and at first the sensor recognized my thumb print ..now it doesnt and will try to register my thumb print again. i saw some reviews that saud they also had problems with the sensor..this is a very pricey tablet

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 11.0 WiFi 128GB is an easy to use tablet. It has a builtin memory up to 512GB and it has a long lasting battery. It has a TFT LCD screen which is vibrant and clear.

There are already some apps installed on this tablet and more can be added through playstore.It comes with Galaxy Tab S7 11.0, S Pen, WallUSB charger, Quick set up guide and Samsung Terms and Conditions.

I was running a Tab S4 prior to getting the Samsung Tab S7 11 128 gig. I am impressed with the screen, processor speed and how light it is compared to my prior tablet.The screen is 11 and LCD but for not being Amoled display it is impressive with nice color reproduction.The processor is an 8 core unit with decent speed for a tablet a lot better than my previous Tablet and as long as it is not loaded down with a lot of applications it should be nice and zippy for a long time.The S7 tablet in a nut shell is a nice upgrade from what i was using before and i will RECOMMEND it to anyone looking for a decent Tablet for an upgrade or just as a reliable zippy portable device to keep up with email or surfing the web.I have not tried the DEX setup that makes it operate like a laptop yet but i am sure it will be sufficient for most casual users.The only dray back i have found is that there is no audio port for wired headphones, but with an adapter sold separately that can be worked around. I am thinking the audio port was removed to place a larger battery in the Tablet, but i could be mistaken about that.All in all i am impressed with the Samsung Tab S7 and would recommend it

Im a longtime Android user, specifically Samsung, so when I was in the market for a new tablet I wanted something that could fit best into my Android ecosystem. In terms of raw performance, the Tab S7 certainly has anything else Ive seen in the Android tablet market beat the Snapdragon 865 chipset and 120hz refresh rate screen make this tablet an absolute dream to use for those who want a great tablet but dont want an iPad. Price wise its about the same as the currentgen iPad air, so you arent spending much of a premium to get this tablet over that. Im not much of an artist, but I did spend some time messing with some artbased apps using the included Spen, and was pleasantly surprised by how fluid and accurate it felt to use. The only con that comes to mind from my usage of the tablet is that not all apps are optimized for tablet use. This is less of an issue thats caused by this tablet than it is a problem of the android ecosystem in general. Its not a deal breaker for me, but it may be for some people depending on their usage. At the end of the day, if youre on the fence between this or a similarly priced iPad, I would say go with whatever suits your preference most. Both have pros and cons that the other doesnt have.

i use this around the house. the build quality is excellent. the screen is amazing, the speakers are very good. its great in the kitchen for watching movies. the speakers are loud enough to be heard over the sound of sizzling.theyve updated the look of dex. the top of the windows have been slimmed down and the corners have been rounded. it looks nice.the keyboard cover on the s7 plus attaches magnetically and is much nicer than what came with the s6. the s7 plus with the keyboard cover is a great secondary device that can be used for productivity tasks. however, if your use is strictly tablet only, id save some money and get the more unwieldly s7. also, if youre deciding between black or silver, get the silver. i got the black and it seems boring.

love our new tab s7. black color is beautiful. 11inch screen is perfect size. glad we got its7 wouldve been too big. stunning color and resolution, and super responsive when playing games, web browsing, and getting work tasks done. the performance is a godsend and now could not live without it. spen is so responsive too, makes taking notes during zoom meetings and marking up documents so easy. and my favorite aspect is the fantastic dolby soundnever thought this kind of sound could come out of a device this small battery life is on par with other devices ive used. dont use tablets for taking photos much, so cant really attest to the camera. if you want a super nice, compact tablet with laptop type power, the s7 will do the trick. fantastic display, sound, and responsiveness.

Im a huge fan of all Samsung products. I have always had a 100 trust in Samsung products, because they always deliver. So does this tablet. 11 for a tablet is a pretty good size. Set up was easy and simple. I love being able to automatically upload everything from my cellphone to this tablet, I especially love being able to make phone calls from this tablet. Design is sharp and sleek, very thin, but sturdy. The screen is an LCD screen with bright, sharp, life like colors. The feature of the pen is amazing, makes it a breeze to navigate through the device and doesnotscratchthe surface. I love how the pen magnetically attaches to the back for easy charge and storage. 128 GB of memory speaks for itself, this tablet is a beast, its like having a compact size PC at all times. Battery life is quite average, lasts about the whole day, depending on what you are working on and how long. All and all, this is an amazing product hands down, I swear by Samsung products because they stand behind their products.

Nice and powerful. Replaced a 10 year old Kindle. Really great photo image quality. Android OS is friendly and familiar. Two minor nits 1. I thought the battery would last longer but its probably busy powering the 11 screen. 2. The stylus can be lost easily because theres no place to stow it. You need to pay attention because its a loose part. It would have been nice to store the stylus in the body like Samsungs Note phones. Highly recommend Samsungs folding case because it has a place to hold the stylus.

I love my new Samsung Galaxy Tab s7. I have owned several Samsung tablets through the years and have upgraded to this model with the spen. Im still learning all the great things that my tablet can do. I really like the spen feature because I dont leave fingerprints on my screen any more. In addition the spen allows me to select items on the screen easily without accidentally picking something that I didnt want. I can watch movies, listen to music, do Word processing and read my ebooks. There are so many options to learn and have fun using my Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 11 256GB with spen. I am totally satisfied

So having this around I honestly thought it was just another tablet. Its new, so you are expecting an amazing screen, great battery life, killer S Pen, all that. But there are some key differences that really set this apart and make it a true laptop replacement.The front camera is in the middle of the long side. So when holding the tablet it portrait, this is silly. Its odd and my hand blocks it. But set it down for a video chat and it makes perfect sense Having it there means in landscape it is perfect for video chat, which is WAY more common now that it was in the past.DeX So I have read about it but didnt really understand it. But WOW. When coupled with the keyboard cover or any keyboard this is it. This is what I have been missing to finally ditch my old ThinkPad laptop I have been holding on to. If you handed it to someone in DeX mode they would think it was a laptopchromebook. But its better I now bring this to work and in DeX mode outpaces my work issued Dell.For media, its amazing. We expect amazing screens from Samsung. BUT THE SPEAKERS They are incredible. Had them playing the other day and someone thought I bought speakers for my laptop Really impressive.If you are looking for this for just media consumption, its great but probably too much. If you want this for media AND work, but it now

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 is a great device for someone that is looking for more than a standard tablet but doesnt need or want a full sized laptop. Ive had the Samsung Galaxy Tab A for about 5 years and used it primarily for streaming video. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 opens up a whole world of opportunities for me as it is much more powerful and versatile. I love that it has the pen included because sometimes I want that oldstyle feeling of writing my notes. If you do not have a laptop you can easily use this by adding a bluetooth keyboard. It is powerful enough to run multiple programs at a time and Ive not had any problems with having multiple tabs and programs running. This is a great device for personal use.

i purchased my galaxy tab s7 11 inches on january 26. this is my 1st tablet ever. i always had an ipad, but i must say i love this tablet. i love the fact that i can connect my cell phone to my tablet and transfer over my data. samsung you must put the fingerprint sensor on the side of the phone just like it is on the tablet. it works like lightning speed i love the crisp clear screen, which has the prettiest colors. the screen is smooth to the touch. the speed of google chrome is wonderful as each window opens fast to the touch of my fingers. it is just amazing i am also happy that the tablet came with the s pen, this is awesome. i am truly happy with my purchase and will definitely purchase another tablet again.

I LOVE this tablet It synced seamlessly with my Lenovo desktop and Alcatel cell phone both from Best Buy, and everything about it is phenomenal. Super fast, loaded with great stuff, superb Galaxy store, and terrific HD.The Samsung pen is terrific, really, and I downloaded Clip Studio Paint, free for 6 months, and thats somewhat like Procreate for Apple iPads and I also got Mediabang and a few other drawingediting apps and they all are fantastic on this tablet.The sound Absolutely shocked me Terrific sound. Camera Same thingI cannot find anything I do not like about this at all, really, and I have looked. It does what is says, has what it says, is marketed 100 accurately and I loev it. One thing thats also incredible about it is the DEX app which when applied and rotated to horizontal use becomes just like a computer, looks like one entirely that way with DEX and as all my investigations into it being said to be able to replace a computer, with the exception of my 27 screen on my desktop used to design art, it really can replace my computer.I give it 5 out of 5 and then some.

We got our new tablet to replace my wifes laptop that was no longer functioning to its fullest. Previously she was using her laptop to shop online, email, steam video, look at sewing patterns and books. Now she is able to do all of that and more. She can now take amazing photos, take a zoom cooking class in the kitchen, play her favorite cell phone games with the touch screen, and moreShe and my daughter really enjoy using the included S pen to draw and write. They have really been enjoying the draw along videosThe screen is beautiful and rich looking, so much nicer then the laptop ever was. The battery is long lasting as well.The tablet is easy to use as it functions just like our Samsung Galaxy cell phones, so there was practically no learning curve for a new device

I absolutely love this tablet. The screen is huge which makes it perfect for watching my shows. I also enjoy drawing on this tablet with the included pen. The large screen size makes it perfect for doing a split screen I put my reference picture on one half and I open my drawing app on the other half. If you dont know how to do a split screen on a Galaxy S7, you can just Google it. Its one of the features that I really like on this tablet. Many other tablets have that feature too, but this one is actually big enough to make the split screen practical.The ONLY problem I have with this tablet is, the pen attaches to a magnetic strip on the back. The magnet is pretty strong, but the pen can still easily be knocked off. I can see right away that if I store my pen there, Im going to knock it off and lose it. The easy solution to that is to buy a case for the tablet that has a pen holder. Thats what I did. You can see my case in the photos. The case wasnt included with the tablet so you have to buy your own.

This was a great purchase I use it daily for work and it makes writing contracts, and interacting with clients so much easier. It syncs up with my phone so I can send text messages and since it is basically an extension of my Note 20 many of the apps that I use for work are so much easier to see and work with.Battery life is amazing, I only use it for work so there is a very if any time spent watching videos and I know that runs down battery life. But for day inday out grind of using it I can go days without having to charge it. The pen is a very useful tool for me, I wish the stylus interacted with my Note and the S7, however the Note stylus works with the S7.The screen is pressure sensitive so even when wearing gloves it will read touch.The only downside I guess is I wish it was water and dust resistant like the Note 20 and other Samsung phones. The S7 is a newer product so why they did not make it water resistant like their other current phones is beyond me.

I was very excited when I was selected to test the Samsung S7 with the keyboard. With all of the capabilities of the Tab S7, I knew I had to test it with all new work tasks. For note taking, I love that the Tab includes a pen that is compact and has a great texture for writing. There is definitely a learning curve if you do the writing to text as it cant read my cursive and for my own notes, it was really clean and felt great. The Tab comes with a whole suite of Samsung, Google, Microsoft and Galaxy apps pre installed. Some may hate this but I liked having some options when I first start. I will say that when I started using the Play store, it kept closing while searching for specific apps, which was highly irritating but eventually the apps I wanted did download. The layout of the tablet is similar to the android phone and allows you to customize. Ive only watched a few Videos and listened to music so I cant comment too much on that yet.Overall for me, Ive used it mostly for work and I like it. The weight of the tablet was definitely heartier than I expected, but the built in kickstand in the back cover works great. The keyboard is really nice to use. Because it is a bit more compact, it takes me a few minutes to readjust between using it as a tablet or computer, but thats more me than the keyboard.My dislikes set up was long. It required a Samsung log in, updates and kept closing unexpectedly. The weight of the tablet is kind of a minus as its hard to hold it one handed and use it on the run. Most of these arent deal breakers but will take some adjustments.My likes it has all of the easy sign in recognition and was super easy to set up pin code, fingerprint and face. It reads quickly and login is a breeze. The pen is included and has a magnetic strip that makes me feel safe using it and putting it back to its proper place. The accessory, in this case the keyboard, felt really sturdy, clicked in well and is a great cover.Overall I like it. I need to take it thru a few more paces but its user friendly, cost effective to current tablets, and is fun to play with.

after being a huge samsung fan for years, with more tablets than i got fingers, no longer. preordered an s7 to replace an s3, and an s7 to replace an s5. now feeling like i got robbed.s7 video playback is a joke at best. have to regularly kill other apps, including browsers, to watch a video. press play and get 25 seconds of video playback, then it stops. do not experience such terrible performance on chromebook, macbook, dell laptop, iphone, or oneplus 7t when viewing same website andor video, so problem is definitely with samsung s7.i have tried to reach samsung support via web chat and message functions but they dont seem to work with ie or chrome.

The Galaxy Tab S7 is a great Android Tablet. This is actually my first time using an android based tablet. It is like an extra big phone to me, especially since I have the Samsung Galaxy S10. So they were able to link and transfer all my apps making for a smooth install and setup. The pen is fun to use and I am still learn more about it everytime I use it. I also got the keyboard along with it and it connects to the tablet easily and works great. The sound quality and screen resolution are great. The sound is nice and loud when the volume is turned up all the way. I do recommend this tablet to anyone looking for a new tablet. I only gave this item 4 out of 5 stars because while I enjoy it and think it is great and recommend it. I was not wowed and that is what it takes for me to give a 5 star rating.

Like many other low budget Samsung devices you shouldnt have too high expertations,unless you dont want to get disapointed frustrated about all of the technical bugs etc.Whats frustrating me too much is that this device have too many bugs errors in the script.Like that the device constantly have errors in the web browser such as constantly close down will go back to startmenu not register new accounts on other web sites Note in Firefox, will neither have same support for many online webservices like protonmail.This device is also incompatible with multitasking. So for an ex if I will look at a youtube or similar content in one window,and at the same time will do a google serach the device shuts downpauses the videoclip.Im also frustrated about that my my device constantly a bug, wich explains why my web browser constantly shuts down.This is realated to if you choose multiple languages. For an ex if you choose other than the factory set in wich country you bough the devivce in. In my case if you choose English instead of Swedish this will occure.At the same time if you choose multiple languages the software will aut set up for the upcoming in the list.It also frustrates me that the device flip function is too sensitive.It can be enough for the sensor if I make a swipe gester over the screen.Its also frustrating that the device is useless in bright sunlight.Both that the screen gets completly black have turned the aut adaptive function off, but also that the screen is too shiny too many reflections.But at the sametime if Im inside in normal roomtemperaturre the screen works fine.Note that this is related to the newer models with Android 10 2020

Great tablet I have no issues with it so far just disappointed it doesnt come with extra s pen tips to replace in case they get wore out. Thinking about putting a screen protector but not sure since I see on reddit their pen wearing out within a day. Not sure how to go about that since I plan on using the pen everyday once school starts in spring. But overall its great I think people just think it can replace a full laptop it might for some people who use google docs but for intense stuff not so. but its amazing for what I use it for. Reading PDFs and taking notes and watching videos. Just worried about the durability of the S pen if I add a screen protector.

the best the screen is so bright and vibrant, and its large enough that when you open three windows, each window is still huge enough for you to work in. the sound from this device will make you wonder where theyve hidden the speakers in your house. i have the keyboard cover, which im typing on right now, and its also amazing. this device has pulled out all the stops, and the spen is at its very best. i have no complaints about this tablet at all, and if youre on the fence at all about getting this device, dont be its samsungs very best with 120hz screen refresh rate, amazing sound, the best pen experience, and the ability to switch windows so easily, and mirror your screen with samsung dex, this is the ultimate tablet

I bought this over boxing week and I was looking for something to replace my TAB S2 8.0 that got damaged. I only use it for watching videos. Whether it be TV channels or Netflix.I was very happy with the S2. Its only issue was the battery. But the screen was fantastic. I wasnt sure if the TAB A7 would be up to the same level in terms of the screen. But Im very happy with it. I got it on sale, I was happy I got the 64GB for the same sale price as the 32GB.I was very torn between the S6 Lite and the A7 2020. Screenwise they are the same. The only difference was the pen that i would not use. The cpu were different. And for what Im using it for, it works fantastic. The screen is very responsive, if there are a lot of apps open, there is a bit of lag. It still checked all my needs.I considered the S7, but it was way too expensive for what I wanted to use it for, but it had the OLED screen that my S2 had which was so crisp even after a few years. I have no intention of using the tablet for anything more than watching shows or surfing the web for shopping purposes.One thing I did notice was that It is a lot heavier than my S2. It is larger vs the 8 S2, but I was surprised at the weight. I think its on par with the iPad that we also have.The thing that i really liked was the 4 speakers and the sound is terrific. The S6 lite doesnt have this. but most of the time i am using bluetooth headphones with the tablet for sound.

Every year for the past 5 years I have purchased myself, my father and my mother the latest Samsung Galaxy Tab A model tablet as they are competitively priced and great quality devices. Samsung have always been a brand I have put my trust in. This year like usual I purchased three Samsung Galaxy Tab A7s for us all for Christmas. I wrapped my mothers and fathers up for Christmas day and decided to open mine last night. Ive never been so disappointed opening and using a Samsung product in my life. The screen is absolutely appalling on this model. It reminds me of the very first Amazon Kindle 7 tablets. The brightness is rediculously weak, the viewing angles are rubbish and theres this really weird prominent blue tinge to the colour that you get with really inferior poor quality panels. Unless you are right Infront of the screen you might as well not bother. Cant really tell you about the performance as all three of these will be going straight back to where I bought them from and I think its time that I started looking at other tablets from other manufacturers now.The one thing on a tablet that should stand out is the screen. After all, this is going to be what youre going to be looking at all day over so if the screens rubbish you might aswell be holding a brick. Cant comment on performance as I couldnt be bothered using it with such a poor display. Compared it to my previous generation 2019 Tab A and I would say the display on the previous generation is twice as good as this.Ive been a loyal Samsung customer now for many years but it seems as though Samsung have given up caring about its customers needs and instead would rather take shortcuts and use cheap low quality panels in their Tab A range to keep costs down. Ive had a look online and there is so much competition now in this price bracket that I think its time I went with a brand that doesnt cut corners like this.So disappointed in Samsung that they think they can get away with producing such a shoddy machine. Please DO NOT BUY This model, the screen is absolute garbage

Im an avid user of the fruit based products so switching over to the Samsung Galaxy has a little bit of a learning curve, but wow The first thing I noticed was how crisp, sharp and clear the images are. Intending to use this to help further some of my graphic design abilities I couldnt wait to dive in. The pen use is spot on and I never had any difficulties having it connect.Movies shows were sharp, high quality resolution. The sound was also so crisp and clear that it was surprising that this little tablet comes with so much punch The camera is also better than some of my phone photos.I love this tablet my 4year old even more so and it is able to suit both an adult for business purposes and a little 4yearold who wants to drawer with the magic pen.

This thing is amazing and this is coming from an Apple fanboy. We have been trying to leave the Apple Ecosystem, but there was just nothing as good as the iPad Pro out there. That was until we tried the Galaxy Tab S7.CostWe got the Tab S7 4G, 128 from Digitec for 779 CHF. The iPad Pro 11 with 128GB costs 1016 CHF 149 CHF for then Pen. When you start adding the keyboards, things get even worse. This device looks even more premium than the iPad Pro. I have been a Fanboy all my life, but this device is simple proof that Apple is overpriced. The KickstandFor long, I wished for a tablet with a kickstand similar to that of the surface pro but wanted to avoid windows. Now Samsung did it with the Galaxy Book Cover Keyboard. I love that you can separate the Keyboard and the Book cover.DEX.In the past DEX only supported Full HD on many monitors. Now it supports QHD on my LG 4K USB C monitor. It would also support 4K on Samsung monitors. It works so smooth, looks so crisp. I tried several workloads, photo editing in Dex, writing my PhD thesis, doing some video projects. Everything is so smooth. No sound, the Galaxy Tab was Never hot but once I connect my MacBook Pro to the monitor, the fans go out of control. You can also use WIRELESS DEX to connect to your TV.4GI am currently using my Galaxy Tab 7 to make and receive calls. This is not possible on any 4G iPad model. Apple blocked this function.GamingOne of my favorite games is Rayman Adventures. We tried this game side by side with the iPad Pro. It loaded a bit faster on the Galaxy Tab S7 and I loved the colours on the Tab S7 better.

Im fortunate to live in a GREAT Att cellular area, in spite of it being rural and deep in the woods, but for whatever reason, this area is getting fantastic early adoption 5G service. I first discovered this after upgrading from a Note8 to an S20 Ultra 5G a couple of months back. I was stunned to jump from 12mbps to 60mbps. On top of that, the new Unlimited Elite plan allows 100Gigs of consumption monthly.Once I did the research and discovered this S7 5G tablet had the same chipset and specs as the S20, I thought Id give it a test run. Much to my shock, ATT delivered the tablet in LESS than 24 hours Literally next day no charge. And sure enough the performance is as good or better than the smartphone version. It must have a bigger antenna because its reception is 1 bar higher than the S20 almost always, and the streaming for Amazon Prime, Hulu, HBO Max is absolutely gorgeousAnd the Miracast to the Roku on the full size TV is butter.We live in remarkable times. LolI live in the forest with no internet service options except cellular. Suddenly, after 15 years I have super fast data pipe with a 200Gig monthly cap.I also work from home and the Remote Desktop experience is brilliant compared to the previous LTE Netgear Hotspot with the supposedly 23Gig cap.Couldnt be happier. This Samsung tablet connected to the 5G tower is a personal media consumption marvel.

I was so happy to have this tablet. I only have a big desktop pc and this has come in so handy. I love being able to use it in bed as I am a senior 78 female and spend a lot of time in bed. It is so handy and the screen is just perfect. The sound is also very good and the battery life is awesome. I had been using my cell phone in bed and it was so small, I was very happy with the screen size on this as I can see it so plainly. I am getting used to using the pen and it fun to draw and play with. I sometimes take it out on my patio and with the overhang on my patio, I can use it outside with no problems seeing the screen. I even took it with me to play Bingo and it was just wonderful. Actually I have been using this more than my cell phone. I have not used the camera as of yet but looking forward to taking some photos as soon as the weather permits. All in all I am very happy with this tablet and would recommend it highly.

This has the perfect sized, bright screen.When I compared the brightness, it was brighter than even OLED s7 one.Because its LCD, it lasts longer than s7 which has even bigger battery.Even though its slightly thicker than s7, I chose this because its much more sturdy and when I held it, I could hold it in one hand and use the other with pen. s7 was little too heavy with one handI chose 256gb as the OS and essential apps gonna take like 30gb.Its super fast and when I play COD on it, there is no lag at all.I already scored to be placed in top 3 on some of beginning multiplayer stages.The sound is awesome coming from 4 spots on both side of the screen.S pen is also pretty awesome with super good latency. So much better compared to s6 Lite. I basically feel like Im really writing in a pen in a whiteboard.S pen works whether its charged or not thats whats so great about it compared to Apple PencilBut S pen battery doesnt last long.I kinda dont mind s pen battery much yet, as I havent learned all the s pen skills yet, but oh well.One tip is to put the s pen upside down, and it wont suck up your tab battery as s pen wont charge when its up side down.

Using tablets in the past I was expecting mild performance, some lag while switching apps or screens, decent pictures, and ok sound. I was proven wrong when I got this Tab S7 along with keyboard. Straight from the box the setup was easy and quick performing any updates right away when connected to my WiFi IP6. I have not put this Tab S7 down much as it has become my goto when wanting to do anything. Watching movies the screen is large enough like having a small TV at your desk The picture is clear and does not have any blur at all. The speakers that are on this make it even better with 4 speakers that can really get loud. I didnt even have the need for an external speaker. Along with the speakers listening to music was very nice. I could prop up the Tab S7 using the kickstand the keyboard cover which you can detach the keyboard itself easily if you do not wish to use it at the time. Playing games is also great on this Ive played shooters, board games, puzzles and a couple others with ease and it flowed smoothly. The touch screen is very responsive and found I did not have to keep touching for it to recognize my finger. Scrolling social media everything is large and easy to read. I could take a picture and load it right up without worrying about low quality pictures. The 256 GB storage is great and even added another 400 GB micro SD card to store pictures and videos taken with the Tab S7. Facial recognition and fingerprint scan on the screen are fast and reliable making it easy to log in the device. Also, remember to pull down your mask for facial recognition My next thing is to get a gaming controller and see how well that goes. Seeing how it performs now I will not be worried of the performance. So far at work everyone has been walking by asking about the new Tab S7 and I think I may have converted a few showing them all the features

Arrived exactly as stated, a good start The TabS7 is superb, and the perfect size for everything you could want to do watching a film, doing a jigsaw or colouring a picture. I also like the fact that its supposed to be used in the horizontal position. The last tablet I bought turned everything into the vertical even with auto rotate on which I didnt like. I have trouble with my hands and find a tablet far easier to hold horizontally. Also, if using it plugged in, and it has to be used in the vertical position, the charging port is in the way, which seems very silly and makes it so much harder to use. Ive had it just over a week now, and so far theres nothing not to like. As Im sure youve realised by now, I love my new tablet. Ive had a few all Samsung over the years, and this is the very best one by far.

Look, I was excited as everyone else to get ahold of this tablet…and then let down severely once I had. Let me explainThe display is awesome, but not awesome enough to distract from the 1610 ratio. Its awful for holding onehanded. Its completely uncomfortable, heavy and feels awkward. This is a twohanded tablet, so if you are looking for a 32 ratio like the iPad or Surface Go 2, you will not find it here. Then there is Samsungs UI. Nothing intuitive about that. No special widgets or homepage changes other than Dex. And Dex is still the same…BORING. Look, Im sorry Samsung PLEASE up your game or stop making tablets period. Here in 202021, Im expecting something a little innovative and excitingAlso, I was expecting the Tab S7 to be thinner and lighter, so I was profoundly disappointed Sure, the keyboard cover back is magnetic and can be easily pulled off which is a HUGE improvement from the S6 but it just makes me frustrated to be dealing with 2 pieces of a keyboard So, after using it for a week, I concluded that theres NO REASON to upgrade from the Tab S6.Ill be returning and keeping my Tab S6.

I have never used Samsung product before and was a bit hesitant to get one but I was looking for something new that can be used as a tablet with some laptop features. Must say it took a while to get used to it but it has been a great addition to my tech products. Tablet has been easy to use and has been great with working on the go and working from home. I like that the battery can last almost a whole day, no need to go looking for a charger when Im either doing work, communicating with friendsfamily or playing games. I have mostly used it at home both for entertainment watching netflix and with social media. And I have also used it for work when I work from home. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a on the go product.

I have done a lot of reviews in my time but this is truly the first time I was torn in writing one. I am an Apple girl through and through. From the very first iBook and iPhone, I was there 100 for any Apple product. Hand me an Android phone and I am struggling to find the home button. Up until last week, I have exclusively owned iPads and thats where this tablet comes in.I had been in the market for a new tablet since my daughter took over my iPad and then the opportunity to get the S7 presented itself. I did some research and decided why not From everything I had read and seen, this tablet is supposed to be comparable to the iPad Pro, if not a little better. Samsung put a lot of work into this tablet to make it stand out from all the others on the market and it truly shows. The S7 boasts an 11 inch screen with superior graphics that make it not only perfect for entertainment uses, pleasing both gamers and streamers alike, but they also advertise that it is the solution to work at home and be on the go, meaning it can be your laptop replacement. With DEX mode, you can seamlessly switch between the tablet and laptop mode by clicking on the magnetic Samsung keyboard. Samsung clearly put a lot of work into trying to make the laptop mode work well for its users by allowing you to have three screens up at once, the new improvements to the keyboard and the ease of use. There is only one major problem, the keyboard is sold separately for 199 so after purchasing a 650 tablet you have to sink another 200 into the keyboard. Which, by the way, is still missing the function buttons at the top although the S7 Plus keyboard does have them. So to truly have the full laptop experience, youre looking at spending 850. I will leave that decision up to you. I personally have a laptop so that was not my primary reason for getting this tablet. Also, the battery life is pretty decent, especially if you dont run high streaming all day long. If Im being fairly active on it I can get about 9 to 10 hours out of it and if Im just lightly using it I can go for about 2 to 2 12 days on a charge. It has facial recognition and finger print security features although the finger print button on the side is a little touchy and facial recognition may bit work if you set it up with no makeup on and then choose to wear makeup and have your hair down My reasoning for wanting this tablet was basic internet surfing, streaming and photo editing for my online business page. I am a Scentsy consultant so being able to take a post beautiful product images are essential to reaching my online customer base who I rely on to order based off of photos alone. In this department, this tablet knocks it out of the park There are two cameras on the back and two on the front. This makes for INCREDIBLE photo taking abilities. Not only that, the second camera on the front of the screen is a horizontal camera which makes face timing or zooming so much easier angle wise because when you flip the tablet, the camera is already there and ready to capture the horizontal view so you can look straight ahead and not off to the left or right where traditional front facing cameras are. This was a huge plus to me.Also, the clarity and sharpness of the screen itself and graphics is impeccable I thought I had seen amazing resolution before but nothing like this Watching my shows on Netflix in 4K feels like its happening right in front me. I suppose with the 120mhz refresh rate, that is exactly what is intended. Not only are shows incredible to watch, the few games I play are on a whole new level also The detail of the graphics is out of this world And as far as sound goes, its really like a surround sound experience because of the quad speakers. There are two speakers on each side of the table at the top and the bottom. The sound is crisp and punches out beautifully. It definitely gets an A in this department.Some other cool features include the new redesigned S pen. I have never worked with one before but apparently the one on previous models was super laggy. This one is only 9mm of a second behind so you hardly even notice. You can also use the pen to do air motions like play or pause a video, turn the sound up or down, go back to the previous screen, go to the home page and many others. The pen charges by placing it on the magnetic glass strip on the back of the tablet by the camera and when you connect it up, it will show you how charged it is. Pretty awesome. You can also use the pen for coloring and taking notes. The tablet literally gives you the option to use a function of writing in your own handwriting on the screen to take notes, sign things or just write in what youre searching for or where you want to go. I was super impressed with that.Bixby is also something new to me. Im used to Siri from my iPhone and iPad. With Bixby, you train it to your voice and then you can say Hi Bixby to pull it up and ask it to do any command like take a screenshot or turn on your TV at home once you set it up in Smart Things. You can even set up commands based on daily activities so for example if you tell Bixby youre on your way home, it will play music or adjust the screen brightness…whatever you choose to set it up to do. I tell Bixby its bed time and it turns on my Do Not Disturb and lowers the brightness. You will spend hours figuring out all the cool things Bixby has to offer.I could seriously go on for ages about all the cool features but Ill leave it to you to find out for yourself. What I want to talk about now is the cons with this tablet and what prevented me from giving it five stars which I really wanted to give but had to be truthful not only with myself, but also with other consumers and the company so that maybe in the future some of these issues can be corrected.As I said before, I am an Apple user through and through. From the first iPhone and iBook up until last week, every electronica that was in my house for the most part was an Apple product. Samsung has made it a point to compare of us tablet to the iPad Pro in an attempt to corner the market and game new customers in the process. I can only assume based on the marketing and comparison to the iPad Pro, that they want specifically to target Apple consumers such as myself. With that in mind, I think its important to point out that they need to remember Apple users are much like myself in that they probably have all Apple products, which also means that should they switch over to Samsung, they are coming into Android as a novice.I was so excited to receive the tablet and when I opened it up, it came in a beautifully packaged box that opened to reveal the tablet itself a charger and adapter and a small to page getting started essentials guide. I had really looked forward two having some sort of material inside the box that would help me navigate the tablet since I know absolutely nothing about this type of operating system. To my disappointment I was basically sent in blind. The two page start up guide was basically about charging the tablet and turning it on and what the buttons on the sides could do, which I am sure is helpful, dont get me wrong, but it isnt what I needed. I come from a completely different operating system and once I got everything up and running literally had no clue what kind of features the tablet had or how to work them and for the first time in my life, I really felt dumb and clueless. I spent hours searching for how to videos and reviews that could maybe help me shed some light on things like Bixby and Samsung notes and the coloring app. I finally gave up looking for videos and went to the Samsung website and downloaded the user manual. I have to admit, after being so excited to receive this tablet, it was a little frustrating feeling so discouraged out the gate and not being able to work it fully. Also, as an Apple user my headphones are lightning charger headphones so I was very dismayed to find that didnt even come with a pair of compatible headphones. All of my Apple products come with basic plug in headphones with each device. Maybe I am being so picky but my point is that for a company who wants to capture attention in business of a competitors market and bring them in as customers needs to consider these types of things. For someone switching from Apple and spending 650, a pair of headphones should be included. Is this a deal breaker Absolutely not, but now I have to go out and find a set of headphones that will work and I like. So my recommendation would be to take those small little things into consideration because you cant assume that every person who buys one of these tablets already knows how to operate it or has the necessary accessories to do so.Other than that, I am extremely happy with this tablet and will definitely be recommending it to all of my friends and family. All of my coworkers have already heard about it and my daughter and her friends keep begging me to let them use it. It is definitely a quality tablet with several incredible features that absolutely make it worth the price tag. I truly look forward to continuing to learn even more about what it has to offer and Im definitely much more open to the idea of getting more Samsung products. I just hope that they remember that targeting us Apple freaks means that we arent as fluent in Android as the people who are upgrading their old Samsung tablets are, that already have all of the accessories and knowledge about the operating system. Treat Each new release of a product as if it is the first time anyone is using that product and needs all the basic knowledge and user friendly things to make the experience a happy one.

I had looked at this, added it my basket, nearly bought it, thought better of it and generally dithered for months. I had a very old Samsung S2 tablet which worked but was clunky and slow but hadnt quite given up so I thought Id hold off on purchasing a new one. Then last week I finally gave in and purchased the Samsung S7 with S pen. Set up was easy and smartswitch transferred everything and Im no IT genius. Managed to hook up a new pair of wireless ear phones as this one has no headphone jack. The issues with set up lay with me, not the tablet. The display is clear and bright. I love the S pen. Everything works as you would hope and expect. If I try really hard the only thing I can find to dislike is the weight, but since were not going anywhere most of us anyway not so much of an issue.Definitely recommend.

This tablet is prefect for me because it features a tablet mode for play and a DeX Mode for work. I travel a lot and traveling with a laptop can be burdensome whereas traveling with a tablet is a lot easier. This tablet is lightweight and easy to take anywhere on the go. When I arrive at a client with my tablet, I can put it in Dex Mode and it turns into a desktop with the set up the same as a laptop or desktop. When I am at the hotel at night, I use my tablet in tablet mode and watch movies and play games. When I am home, my kids take over this tablet to play their games and now they no longer want to play using their devices. They love the bright colors and large area for game play. The tablet charges really fast maybe a few hours for a full charge. The battery life after charging lasts me 2 days of intermittent usage about 6 hours a day. Im really impressed with the color and the picture quality of this tablet. The sound quality is the best Ive ever heard from a tablet. Watching movies and streaming my favorite shows is enjoyable because of the quality of the picture and sound. The pen that comes with the tablet is really nice and feels slightly weighted in your hand.

I chose to upgrade my existing tablet, a Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 from 2017. It was a tough choice between the S6 and the S7, but with both of them being the same price, I opted to go with the newer device. This tablet is a much needed improvement over the Galaxy Tab A. I havent had the opportunity to use the S pen yet, but even without the pen, the normal touchscreen options work just fine. The sound quality is excellent with four speakers two on each side. Battery life is also great, depending on how the tablet will be used.It is important to note that in order to turn off the tablet, you have to press and hold the volume key and the power also known as the side key. If you desire, you can simply go into the side key settings and change this from its default setting of launching Bixby to now have it function as a power button.With 128GB of storage space, I have plenty of room for apps. With the ability to add up to 1TB of storage space with an SD card, I dont foresee having to worry about uninstalling less frequently used apps to make room for system updates and app updates. The tablet comes with Android 10 and Samsung One UI 2.5.

the tablet gets so hot on the screen right above the keyboard connection pins. back of the tablet stays cool. it takes only 2 minutes to get hot and just by taking notes or browsing in internet, and no heavy use. you cannot rest your palm of your hand comfortably on the screen while taking notes in landscape mode. youll feel burning on your skin.. you can find similar complaints from other users.all issues started after 4 days of using, and samsung is asking for sending back for repair which per their statement may take up to 14 days.it does not worth the hassle. look for other products. i wish i hadnt send back my tab s6 as tradein, and returned this one.definitely, i do not recommend it.

There are lots of things to like about this tablet. This is my first tablet, so I wasnt sure what to expect, but its been fun. Its very easy to set up as I had it synched with my phone in just a few minutes. The color and sharpness are fantastic. The S pen that comes with it works very well. The tablet is a breeze to operate, especially for a novice.It is light, just a little over a pound and has an 11inch display screen. The speakers are good and the processor is fast.There are only two negatives I have encountered so far. First, the fingerprint sensor can be a bit unpredictable. Sometimes it works easily and other times I have real problems with it. I think the angle of the tablet is the problem, so Im not too concerned with it. Second, the battery life is soso. It seems to drain fairly rapidly, and I have to keep my eye on it.All in all, I am pretty happy with this tablet. I believe that is in large part to also having a Samsung phone. I think Ill be spending less time on my laptop in the future

Absolutely love it I couldnt wait to open the box and start setting up my new tablet. It was pretty easy to set up, I already had a Google account so after logging in it synched my account and I was ready to explore. There are so many cool things that are possible with this tablet. The speed of the tablet makes multitasking easy. Photos and videos are amazingly sharp. The screen is a good size and the resolution is brilliant. The four quad speakers make listening to music sound like a concert. Voice recognition works great it easily takes commands, I especially like talking with Bixby. I love the option of doubling the memory with an optional memory card. Transferring files as well as sharing over three different platforms is simple and fast. This tablet is very light weight and packed with power. I absolutely love this product.

I love it. It has taken a while to get used to since its my first tablet. Everything I have to comment about it is more minor things that new users might find interesting to take into consideration rather than complaints. Id recommend the product to anyone.It isnt a phone or a computer, but instead a cross between the 2. Some apps work on it like a phone and others like a computer or like both, which initially doesnt seem like a big deal until your phone or computer is telling you they cant log in cuz the tablet is logged in and I was hoping both or all three could be. Ill figure it outTablet itself runs really smooth, split screen feature between apps is fantastic, vibrant colors on screen and can protect your eyes by removing blue light, even track data usage right on the home screen if you wanted. Easy to draw on, easy to do business work on, easy to game on although Ive noticed its image quality is so high that the games I typically play need to step it up so their own quality matches dont blame the tablet, different games with higher quality look amazing.I recommend storing the pen on the back any time you so using it instead of sitting it down like a normal pen. Ive almost lost it several times already until I started doing this, plus it keeps it charged. Which speaking of charging, I wish the charge port was on the topleft not bottomright because it gets in the way always if Im using the tablet while its charging since I cant kick stand it onto the cable and I rest my hand down holding the pen on right side right handed then bump it into the cable often when go to use it. Even if it did have a feature to orient the screen upside down, then the keyboard and kick stand wouldnt be lined up to work with it, so Im confident Ill get used to it.

I ordered this regular Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 when it was on sale for 549 with a 50 instant gift card which I applied towards the purchase of the Samsung type cover. Im very impressed by this tablet. I consider myself a techy, and I wouldnt spend more than what I did on this. I couldnt make up my mind between this and the Tab S6 which was on sale for 499. This was the better purcahse in my mind. Itll get 3 years of updates, so, I think Ill got my monies worth.Dont listen to the hype about the LCD vs AMOLED screen stuff. This LCD screen is nicer than my iPad screens. This has a 120 hertz refresh rate, but I turned it off because I dont really need it for anything at the moment. The tablet runs quick and smooth. I love the DEX experience. But often switch between DEX and the regular android OS as some apps just dont work well in DEX. Most apps dont work well on android tablets anyway, so I end up opening up whatever in a webpage. No big deal.Before I purchased this I watched all the review videos. I couldnt decide between this and the new iPad air. I constantly switch between android phones and iphone, so I figured I would get this. Its amazing that Samsung now has something similar to face time and I can make calls and text from my tablet. It also has something called Samsung Flow and I can send files, text, pictures, etc back and forth wirelessly between my phone and tablet similar to air drop. Makes life so much more easier.I do recommend this tablet. Is it better or worse than the iPad. No. Its good in its own way. Each operating system has pros and cons. I have always been an android fan because I can customize the OS. iPad gets better long term support and now with widgets you can customize iOS like android.
SAMSUNG S7 –
Had Samsung tab s6 before but wanted a bigger screen. Bought s7 as soon as it appeared less than a month ago and already have problems with a pen. It doesnt have changeable tips like s6 had and the one they made is too fragile, it became bent after 3 weeks and in some point the writing is about a millimeter apart from the pen, so I need to turn it to find a better part. The tablet itself once had some RAM problem showed that it uses 4.5Gb8Gb memory though nothing was opened than showed a black screen and when I tried to turn it off it just showed a Samsung logotype when I pressed a turn off button, then restarted and now works without problems.By the way, I hate that living in Israel Im not able to have a support in English or at least fully in Hebrew. The website always opens partly in Arabic and partly in Hebrew but it shows that I chose English in settings. Great work

This is a brilliant bit of kit It is amazingly capable as a tablet and with the addition of the keyboard it is truly capable of being a laptop replacement or at least laptop lite It out performs iPad in many many ways and Samsung have definitely got it right Only thing I will say, is its not Apple, I cant say the S7 does anything wrong or badly because it doesnt its brilliant, but I miss my iPad somehow it just seemed easier to use. It may be that Ive had an iPad forever since launch and the Samsung, hence Android for a few weeks only, and no doubt I will get used to it eventually, but Apple just feels software nicer Which is the exact opposite of the physical feel mind Because there Samsung have it nailed, the S7 feels a much better built item by a long way. The ACID TEST Would I recommend it and if it broke would I by another Yes Id highly recommend an S7, but no I wouldnt buy another one, Id down grade memory and size and buy a lesser Apple I just like software feel. BUT and its a big one if one of the laptops failed Id replace it with an S7 and if a newer model came out and it was as good as this, I wouldnt think twice, Id buy it. Samsung have built a blindingly good laptop in the form of a tablet and its worth every penny Special Note Samsung is able to do one party piece that Apple should copy The memory card slot, it allows flexibility that Apple cant match, and as a video editor its a trick that would be hard to beat

Im very disappointed with this tablet. I upgraded from a working Samsung Tab A 10.1 2016. Frankly its a downgrade. The most important thing on a tablet is the quality of the screen. The A7 colours look completely washed out. Secondly the screen looked instantly dirty from unboxing. I dont know whether this is dirty screen effect or if its a fingerprint magnet. Thirdly, and this was the biggest shock, the screen on my old Tab A 10.1 2016 gets much brighter approximately 100 brighter. I cant read the A7 in bright sunlight like I can my old Tab A 10.1 2016. The screen on my old Tab A 10.1 2016 is better in every respect its far more colour accurate, it gets much brighter, it doesnt look dirty. The sound on the A7 is mediocre even with Dolby Atmos on and thats being generous. I dont notice any difference in speed day to day despite the A7 having 1GB more RAM. In fact when I checked Device Maintenance on both tablets the A7 has less available RAM. In short do not buy the A7 to replace a working Tab A 10.1 2016. You will be disappointed.

Galaxy Tab S7 Review.The Galaxy Tab S7 is a fantastic device, has one of the best screens I have seen on a tablet and the sound is amazing, I sometimes think I have surround sound, so its great for watching movies. The spen is amazing as always, being someone who currently has a note 10 I wanted somthing with a bigger screen and a spen so this tablet was just what I wanted. I would normally go for the colour black however I chose the bronze edition instead, and I am so glad I did The colour is amazing, and very premium, along with the build, i am loving the squared off edges. It is also a great device for the xcloud service from Microsoft xbox which I have been testing, so far its been great just to connect my controller to the tablet and play wherever I am. Tha batter life has lasted me a couple of days which is also great. The finger print sensor has also improved from my note 10, it works so much better.Now my only downfall is I ordered the device one day after preorder so missed the chance to claim for the keyboard book cover which I am gutted about….any chance for a free one to be sent out D

The Samsung S7 is a great tablet. It has several nice features. Some of which are beautiful Amoled screen with color display, keyboard attachment, SPen which charges on the back of the tablet, quickly charges and lasts over 6 hours and the camera which takes nice pics. The tablet is very light and compact. It connects effortlessly to other devices. It was easy to set up and transfer files. I liked the ability to multitask with the various window panes that open. It works well with or without the attachable keyboard.

I purchased this item as a gift for my thirteen year old daughter. She is interested in learning digital art. She picked this brand and style. She did the research and read reviews on many other tablets. Now we are both very happy with the outcome. She was showing me her homework project and it looked so clean and true to life. She can use this tablet for school projects and art projects. I am really pleased with the quality of the screen and stylus. The outside of the tablet is stunning. We dont have a case yet but she is doing well with handling the tablet safely. My daughter the the magnetic feature which holds the stylus against the back of the tablet.

Maybe Im being too harsh but from the outset I should say I love using this and this really is a phenomenal tabletIf youre looking at the size I was worried the size would be too much but the 12.4 inch was perfect, big but not too big.The screen as other reviews say blows anything else I have out the water. At times I now prefer to use this tablet rather than watch things on my tv.The only reason I cant give it 5 stars is simply the software. At times things are just not right for a tablet experience, scaling in particular going from landscape to portrait throws everything. In general as well theres only specific apps which can be optimised.Nothing there however is Samsungs fault and its not a deal breaker for me and is easily manageable. For me they have easily constructed the best table in the world and once the software comes together it would be perfect.Still a joy to use and Id recommend it to anyone except the ultra particular.

I am an Apple iphone and watch owner, so planning to try out this tablet was causing me anxiety. However, the experience has been a nice surprise and easy to get used to the subtle differences. It seems Samsung has made the look and feel very similar to Apple with the icons of main system apps similar and recognizable between Android and Apple. The initial setup was easy to do since Samsung prompts you automatically with the necessary questions for getting started. The best feature is the clarity of the screen and its size for viewing video content from favorite apps like Youtube, Reddit, ATT and other movie streaming apps. The expected issue is the inability to connect my iphone messaging to this tablet since Apple will not allow it. But Apple did allow the setup process to download photos from iCloud to the tablet. I have not used the Smart Pen yet, but I was a bit disappointed that the pen doesnt store flat within the tablet. The pen is magnetically attracted to the backside surface for storage which can get bumped off. However, there are inexpensive third party cases that will store the pen tucked inside the fold. I am also pleased to have a device that will cast directly to my Samsung TV, since Apple cannot. In all, this tablet is loaded with everything needed to get things done and for hours of entertainment. Im excited to use the luxurious display for hours of video watching outdoors as soon as warmer weather gets here. I totally recommend this tablet to anyone. Thanks Samsung for this beautiful tablet.

I got this so I can do art on the go, which isnt more than around the house usually with 2020 problems going on.But Im super impressed with what this thing can do for me, letting me work on my full sized comic pics at 600DPI in Clip Studio Paint without much complaining from the device. Plenty of layers too, Im not sure how large the doc is, maybe 160MB200MBI wound up getting a replacement hard tip for the pen because the soft one wasnt my thing, its good and others seem to like it But Im used to pens having a plastic tip vs rubberized.The drawing experience is really nice, the pressure range on the pen is solid. Never felt out of control of my strokes. What I really like is the pen has a very, very low activation forcetakes very,very little pressure to start drawing. Basically if the pen touches the glass its writing.There is no noticeable latency so, kudos to Samsung for going out of their way to make the pen better in more than a few ways.In fact, I really went really hard on the device to see just how far I could stress test it. I tried out SAMSUNG DEX which is a desktoplike interface and had that wirelessly casted to my TV. I had youtube an art reference open on the TV, along with discord while I was working on Clip Studio and it did really well I was blown away.I tried it wired too which worked just as well.So yeah, you can multitask on the TV with this thing while working on your tablet just fine. You also can multitask just on the device without DEX. You can drag apps and have 3 of them running, filling the screen. I usually have at least my MP3 player shrunken in the corner as well as discord on the left if people are chatting at me.IDK what the battery life is like, I didnt sit there with a timer but it seemed to last as long as I was working. Only charging it the next day.I wound up picking up a infiniland case which is extra helpful because it not only protects the device, but also lets me put it in an adjustable range of positions, keeps the pen safe.The other thing I bought for the device besides a 64GB microSD card for space is, some pen nibs. The included one is soft and induces a lot of drag, so I found replacements that came with a hard tip.I cant comment on the gaming end of this thing, I dont use it for games at all.Look if youre an artist and you dont want to be stuck at your desk when creating, or you want a tablet but your PC is a bit pants This thing will serve you well.It comes with the pen, a charger not a fast charger, so everything you need to get started. You may way to grab more storage depending on what youre doing.

DisplayThe first thing I noticed when powering up the tablet was how incredibly sharp, crisp and clear images are and the fantastic vibrant colors that come through. As noted below, movies and games display in very high quality resolution as did photos I played around with.MoviesgamesMovies and games launch quickly and display in very high quality resolution. While playing games it has not shown any signs of sluggishness and keeps up with the motions that Im trying to achieve.Camera The wonderfully high quality display and crisp colors naturally drove me right to the camera to see what I could do with it and it did not disappoint I will definitely be taking this outdoors to see what I can capture in the Quinault National Park as that has some naturally gorgeous colors.SoundThe default, outofthebox sound setting is clear and completely acceptable. When I put the tablet in a protective Otterboxtype of case the sound understandably became a bit tinny or muffled, but was easily rectified by customizing the bass, treble, etc to compensate for the case. If youre not looking for a huge range of sound without customizing to your preference then the default setting is good.DrawingsketchingIm no artist and my stick figures are abysmal so, for the purpose of this portion of the review, I recruited my two early 20s children who love to sketch and draw to test out the included drawing tools. Neither one has ever used a tablet for drawing sketching prior to this and each ultimately had a vastly different preference one was thrilled with the varied selection of tools to explore while the other found them to be overwhelming with the trial and error of trying each out.Bottom line All three of us think this tablet is fantastic We each have our own needs, preferences and perspectives for its use and it delivers on all fronts. I plan to purchase one for their use.

This tablet is working flawlessly. It is an amazing tablet for portability while letting you done almost any kind of work. Since the web applications are increasing and increasing any day, this device is a slim work horse especially for web and android apps with a brilliant screen. With dex mode almost any web page and especially web apps are running smoothly. Dont expect core programs such as premiere, davinci resolve or logic etc. that you even may face performance problems on workstations to run on this device. You just need to consider and understand that this device capabilities. And just one remark and it is also an important one Anyone says that ipad app store is better with dozens of apps, i can say that they are quite wrong about it and they have no idea about how Dex helps to make this device as your closer laptop replacement. Nothing more to say about it. If youre looking for a slim, lightweight laptop replacement by keeping enough capability to make things done while having the best display on the market. This is the device.

This tablet is beyond all others I have tried. It truly takes tablets to a whole new level. The stunning 12 inch Super AMOLED WQXGA2800 x 1752 screen is an amazing sight to behold. Clocking in at 120 hz, the refresh rate is unmatched. Combine that with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 Plus and this is the fastest tablet around It is well worth it on all accounts I never thought I would say this about a tablet, but it truly has blazing speeds so fast in fact that cloud gaming is not only possible, but reliable If speed isnt your thing, that is okay, they still have you covered. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 comes with an Spen making this a very funitonal and useful drawing tablet. Not only can you edit documents or take notes on the fly, you can also draw intricate graphic art that is professional quality There is also no need to worry about running out of space since you can add a micro SD card up to 1 TB in size Combine the S7 with the attachable keyboard to make this a full office on the go

I am absolutely in love with this tablet Set up was a breeze and the functionality definitely negates the need of a desktop or laptop.I love that you are able to pair the tablet with your phone and use it for phone calls and messages. The upgraded Notes functionality is to die for. The ability to hand write and then save as a Word or Google document reduced so much time for me that it is one of my favorite attributes The large pen also makes using the device much more streamlined. Also, the ability to direct transfer apps made my set up time at the most 10 mins. The device is great for work, social media, streaming movies and shows, as well as, playing games. The bigger screen and quick responsiveness of the internal processor pushes this tablet pass the rest on the market. The S7 gets a 10 out of 10 from me

So excited to get my new Samsung tab S7 Its is really beautiful and sleek. Shiny black finish and large enough to be able to see everything easily. Clear bright screen readings. Easy set up just follow the onscreen instructions. Lol Im not one that likes to read pamphlets instructions. Works very fast and quickly loads apps and websites. Testing it first on stock market app. A little confusing cause not looking like laptop set up. Have to play around with it a little to get set up. Finding how to turn off is causing a problem with side key. It keeps saying have to connect to WiFi to turn off . Ok just figured it out. Cant turn off with side key. Must pull down from top and click little circle. I just needed some warm up working great now. The camera is fantastic. The colors are so bright. They just stand out like 3D. I am so impressed with the new Samsung tab S7. It is so fast. I have an older small one from different manufacture and this is so much faster and dynamic. I have the larger screen and it is perfect and easier to read. Keyboard is large and spaced so you arent constantly hitting wrong keys. I like that the print is large. Worked fantastic on the stock market app. I like the larger screen. Slim, lite, easy to handle and fits in purse or brief case . Live updates etc. you cant go wrong with this new Samsung tab S7, it is truly fast and fantastic. I highly recommend this tablet for all your work of any kind. Can not go wrong with Samsung products.

First, Ive used both Apple and Samsung products for years. I like them both and not a fan not of either one. With that said I can honestly say this is the best android tablet ever made. Finally a true iPad Pro competitor in function and style.If your an artist this is this is the best drawing experience Ive ever had on a tablet.CONSThe 6GB RAM was a funky decision instead of 8GB. For a tablet of this price I wouldve thought 8 would be minimum. With that said Ive never had an issue with performance on this and Id consider myself a power user.The keyboard cover is nice but is way too overpriced over 100. The keys dont even light up and you cant tilt the keyboard it always lays flat.

I am so sorry I bought this tablet instead of the new Apple iPad Pro or iPad Air. Its almost impossible to print from Android apps You CANT print from Microsoft Outlook. When I try to print even from other apps there isnt a print option just and option to share whatever you want to print with Gmail or Dropbox of something else and print from there. For screen rotation to work correctly at least like I was used to with Apple I had to download an app. I find myself using my old iPad Air2 for tasks because they dont exist or are so convoluted on the tablet that its not worth it. There are some pluses but they dont make up for the shortcomings. Display etc. are of course, beautiful but Id rather have functionality. Some apps Ive used forever are available but dont act the same. I guess updating Android apps hasnt been a priority to a lot of companies.

What a nice size, and not too heavy, and easy to seeread Love all the features it comes with, and so far, have run into no problems. Was fun looking through all the features, and getting familiar the set up where the setting, etc are. Color is vibrant, which of course be set to your specific desireneeds. If there would be a negative comment, then only towards the pen, which will pop off if you are not careful, but that is no biggy, because that feature magnet to hold it, is not really a necessity. Would have been better if made like the other tabletsphones where the pen can be slide into the unit. Ive added to pics to show it uprightsideways, and home page, and icon page. You can of course select background pic that one is the manufactured one, or choose your own which I havent done yet. I would definitely recommend this tablet.

I have always had Samsung Galaxy phones, but used an iPad. I looked at iPad Pro but found it was overpriced, and I hate the way Apple control everything. I saw the S7 and was blown away and had to have one Its here and it doesnt disappoint. Such a beautiful clear picture, easy to set up and easy transfer of apps and data from my phone. Proper functioning keyboard where you can put the curser in the middle of a word my bugbear on iPad and backspace to delete, or delete from the right hope I am explaining this clearly. It is light and so portable, but I do feel it is vulnerable and so a case of some kind is essential. I ordered early and so a case came free with mine, but it had to be ordered separately, and so I am waiting anxiously for it to arrive, and hope it is in time for my holiday. I love typing with the S Pen, but the keyboard within the case will be useful, and I am looking forward to trying it. The spec on this thing for the weight and size is amazing The graphics are amazing, and as an avid MotoGP fan, it is a pleasure to watch with such a clear and sharp picture. Samsung have hit on a little gem here. Treat yourself, you wont be disappointed

Upgraded from Galaxy Tab 4 because screen was separating from the case. Pros better, clearer screen pictures Stylus with lots of functions. I can now highlight text, copy and paste write and have script translated into words point and click on an object etc. Using stylus I dont get the screen oilyfrom my fingers. More built in Ram. Bigger screen. Smart switch great to transfer items from old tablet. Cons metal case so cold to hold and slides around as opposed to the Tab 4 with its alligator Case. Didnt know stylus has to be charged by putting on pad on back of case. Also, no indicator to know chen fully charged.

Have had for a week now. As my title says, its a GREAT tablet, BUT a little on the heavy side. I have it living in a Easy Acc case currently waiting on validation and receipt of the offer of a free book cover as offered in Samsung promotion on their website and that makes an already heavy device a good bit heavier, so be careful what case you buy if you dont get the free book cover.Performance wise, I couldnt be happier. It EASILY stacks up well to my Note 9 Ive had for 18 months now. Watching 5v shows from well known sites are a real pleasure. Not much of an ardent gamer, so dont know how it would cope there.All in all, Im pleased with my purchase and would recommend to you just watch what case you buy

When I first received the Tab 7 I was very excited. THIS IS MY FIRST TABLET… everI was happy to pay a Premium price for a premium device. I did preorder but soon after I was disappointed. First thing I noticed was before even I did the preorder The Keyboard cover I did not expect for the cover to come with the tablet even though I was hoping it does for the price that you pay, not only that you cant claim it as a preorder bonus… you cant even buy it Thats it Why advertise the tablet with the cover if it is not even available for purchase upon the tab release It was not available during the preorder but also it is not available til this dayUpon unpacking the tablet I noticed that it doesnt have 3.5 headphone jack. And I understand as this is the trend right now and also they are trying to push the Galaxy Buds but you dont even receive the TypeC to 3.5mm Adapter NO You have to buy that separatelyThe other negative thing I have to mention is the pen. And not the pen itself but the position of it. It stay attached to the back of the tablet by magnet and its very easy to loose it. If you are laying bed or on the couch and simply pull the tablet closer to you that is enough to disconnect the pen.The sound quality is also very low in mine opinion.Yes the display is beautiful, with vivid colors and high resolution but it is a very heavy device. I could only hold it in my hand for a minute before I need to place it downI also dont like the apps grid There is a lot of space left between the apps. I wish I could fit more apps on one page Some apps are also not optimized for tablet use like some games and Instagram where you cant use them in landscape mode

I upgraded to the Tab S7 from the Tab S6 and it was definitely a worthit upgrade The biggest change from the s6 to the s7 is one some may have been worried about, going from an oled to lcd screen on the s7. Let me tell you, theres absolutely nothing to worry about. Colors look fantastic and I compared them side by side and both screens look phenomenal. The s7 screen has the added benefit of 120hz refresh rate which makes scrolling and gaming so much better. In addition, I love the faster charging speed of the s7 as well. The other benefit of the S7 is the new S Pen which is even more responsive on the screen and is fantastic for taking notes and also drawingart.I absolutely love multitasking on this tablet and often throughout the NFL season have found myself with my fantasy league on one half of the screen and a game streaming on another half and even with the size of the S7 vs the S7, its plenty big enough and detailed enough while multitasking to get a great view of the game or any video you want to watch. The speakers are also very loud and perfectly crisp.Overall, I highly recommend this tablet and if your only reason youd want to upgrade to the s7 instead of the S7 is because youre concerned about the screen type, you absolutely have nothing to worry about getting the S7.

I have used this tablet for a little while now and I cant find any faults. The screen is beautiful and responsive with its 120Hz refresh rate. It is super satisfying to scroll across the screen with zero blur or stutters. The powerful processor and increased ram make it a true workhorse and when you use the Samsung DEX feature it almost completely replaces a laptop. Some apps dont scale the best on tablets, but that is not the fault of the tablet which does a good job of making the apps fit well. Multitasking is so easy on the 12 inch screen. Running things side by side in landscape is great, but in portrait orientation it can feel a little tall with its 169 aspect ratio. Video streaming content looks amazing though. The Spen is very nice and responsive. I use it to take notes and sketch designs for projects that I am building or working on. The large screen and spen together work well for drawing out plans and then working back off of them. Add on the keyboard case and this tablet almost becomes a full laptop computer replacement except for programs that only work with specific operating systems.

I am so excited to have received this tablet from Walmart I have used this tablet every day ever since I got it, that is how much I have enjoyed it. So far it has done really good. The design is really sleek, and the product itself is basically like a giant phone. I can do everything on this tablet that I can do on my phone. The tablet even comes with a stylist pen that can be used to draw, play games, type, and it even has shortcut command features that can maneuver the tablet without having to click a ton of buttons. The tablet does not come with a keyboard but I hear a lot of people prefer to have one with it. I purchased a protective case for it because it is really lightweight and sleek, it seemed really easy to almost drop it without one because there is no grip to it. The camera is good quality and all the app features connected to the camera work well and offer some unique artlenses features with the stylist pen. Security on thist is really good too. You can choose between multiple secure options to keep it locked like a fingerprint scan which is located on the power button, the number passcode one, or the pattern lock. I believe it even lets you set up multiple of these in case you forget how to unlock the tablet with one. Lastly the charging port is the other thing I noticed is a little different. It is the C port style charger now and can even use the newer Samsung phone chargers if needed. Battery life for this is really good as well, this tablet has lasted me 4 days just using the drawing app that came on it along with YouTube and a few other game apps. It even charges really fast with the supplied charger and shows how long it has left before fully charged. Overall I absolutely love this Samsung tablet and really want to get another one for my family to enjoy.

Feel asleep working a while ago and ended up kickng my laptop off the bed. While it didnt suggestion much damage I learned to leave the laptop in the office and figured itll be best to get a tablet. Did research on the surface line, ipad pro, tab s7. This is by far the cheapest because it comes with the pen. Its seriously impressive. The screen is gorgeous and responsive and its the perfect size. I chose this over the plus because I absolutely hate the in display fingerprint readers as theyre a hit or miss. The design is attractive I got the bronze and its really beautiful. Sound is punchy and quality is amazing. I wish the screen could get a hit dimmer at night though. Now for the pen. This thing is a huge productivity booster. Im trying to move my laptop practice away from paper particularly in the digital court and so need something primarily for note taking on PDFs and this is perfect for the job particularly when used with the native notes application. Likes. Portable, versatile, cheap, amazing spen is bundled, battery life is good atm, DEX. As for the complaints. I could never justify 200 for a plastic keyboard that attaches magnetically and doesnt protect from drops but I like staying in a particular ecosystem so that was a bummer. The white screen has a yellow tone when viewed at an angle. Black isnt very black but then again this isnt AMOLED. No headphone jack and no adapter included in box. Overall. Excellent display, attractive design, perfect work from home device, excellent media consumption and reading device, fast. BEWARE the pen is not properly constructed. My nib broke within a few weeks so that I had to purchase replacement nibs. Youre likely to run into the same issue so if the main purpose is to take notes during meetings I suggest you invest in another brand as Samsung does not include replacement nibs and tool.

Because I do a lot of drawing and note taking, I decided to purchase this 512gb Samsung Tab S7 Plus. Although I found it very expensive over the regular Tab S7, I wanted the super Amoleod Screen and the large 12.4 inch screen.Pros1 HUGE SIZE…I use this large and clear screen for taking lots of notes, writing on PDF ebooks, and drawing. Also watching videos or reading ebooks is a great experience.2 Fastness and peppiness…Intendcto have several apps open at the save time and this tablet has adequate memory to handle this.3 Laptop replacement…I dont use my old laptop anymore, the Tab S7 Plus is my new laptop. I use DeX and regular modes and prefer to type using the ONSCREEN KEYBOARD. I also use Printers hare and print all of my documents using this tablet.4 Battery Life…Since I dont play games on this tablet, I can go until late at night and not have to keep charging the tablet.5 Love the S Pen and Air Command.Cons1 HeavinessBulkiness of the Tablet. Its a bit heavy and super large so I purchased the genuine Samsung Book Cover. This way I can easily fit this tablet in my Business Bag or large purse.2 The 512gb size is very expensive, however I require this because I store on the Internal lots of files.

This review is for those who want to use it as a replacement for a laptop.Straight to the point, this tablet can do most office work a laptop could do, which is really amazing as Android OS. But it has a fatal failure for the keyboard. The keyboard will go to sleep if you are not typing or using the touchpad for 15 sec, and when you try to use the touchpad again, there will be around 0.5 sec no response. It may sound whatever, but that means when you are editing Word or scroll updown your website, your first swipe doesnt work. You may swipe twice or directly swipe on the screen.I take it as a powersaving solution, but that 0.5 sec delay pretty much ruined all experience for the keyboard and make it never an option for office work tho most people dont. There should be an option in Settings to turn off this powersaving mode, or change adaptively if the power is connected. Whenever Samsung fixes it, I will buy the tablet again right away.Other than the keyboard, no offense, I feel this is the first Android device on the planet that can beat iPad Pro. Cheers.

Got the Tab S7 to replace my smaller iPadmini. The screen is large and allows user to reduce eye strain when using the Tab S7 for extended durations. There is a slot to add storage which makes it better than the more expensive iPad. This version of the Tab S7 included a pen that can be used to interface with the touch screen. The pen charges itself when placed into the storage location on the back of the Tab S7. The storage location for the pen is located on the back of the S7 and attaches using a builtin magnetic strip. I have purchased a case to go with the S7 and highly recommend a case if you use the Tab while travelling.The music and sound is impressive for the small size of the speakers.The camera is great and compliments the screen size.The Tab S7 is remarkably thin and lightweight.Depending on your use, your battery life may be different but I charge mine once a week.Normal use is about an hour a day for me.This Tab S7 also allows you to add a keypad as an option. I did not choose the keypad for mine.

I have been anxious about telling someone how great an addition this tablet is to my day to day life. I figured Id just write a review.The screen size is perfect for me and display quality is phenomenal. Once you go 120hz theres no going back.I love the fact that I can charge this in my car, at home, in the office with just a usb c phone charger. For my use case, the battery lasts whole day. Compared to my surface book laptop, this is extremely convenient.This is an entertainment powerhouse. I used to watch Netflix on my phone. Now I use the tablet for it.The pen and the Samsung notes app are really good. I mean really good. I love taking notes on the fly. You can take notes on the lock screen. This tablet wins from the point of view of convenience in so many different use cases.I use it to read on kindle. I havent used e readers and the fact that I have a phone, tablet and a laptop, I dont find it useful to buy another gadget just to read books. This one is great. Kindle app works well on the Tab s7.If you have a Samsung phone as well, you can set up tethering and the tab will connect with your phones internet almost as soon as you unlock your tablet.Fingerprint sensor is blazing fast. I tried using the face unlock. It doesnt work in the dark or at weird angles. Windows Hello and I assume Apple face unlock are way better. I dont like my galaxy s10 indisplay fingerpring scanner so I am glad this one has it on the power button.I really like the quad speakers. Great sound for a tablet.If the use case works out, I might get rid of my surface book and just stick with this tablet and get an external display to attach to this tablet when at home.I bought an open box fair condition one which didnt have a stylus bought one off Amazon. The tablet cost 445 tax and it came with a 50 Best Buy gift card. I like Best Buy for this.

I almost overlooked this tablet because of the display. Im still not in agreement with the decision to use a TFT display instead OLED but I must say that for being almost older technology, it is truly a nice display. You wont get those aesthetically pleasing deep colors like you do with Samsung AMOLED but Id say the display would be the top of its class.Everything is about this tablet is excellent. The battery last at the very least a day, even with heavy use. The ability to use three windows at the same time is a welcomed feature. The SPen is still an integral tool for taking notes among other features and wireless DeX makes this tablet extremely versatile. You wont be disappointed at all.

Opening the box, I was excited for a new toy. I love technology and havent had a tablet in a while. But I was hesitant about how much this would actually get used. But the stunning screen distracted me from that thought initially.First the easy stuff no shock this screen in incredible. Samsung keeps making the best screens in the business. 120hz really is all its cracked up to be. The speakers are awesome. Ive used them in some large rooms and they are pretty good. Where others have been shocked the music was coming from a tablet. The s pen is what you expect it to be, a killer accessory that becomes a must use. With the 9ms response time writing on it in a dream. The keyboard is someone fantastic. Im a bit picky with keyboards preferring mechanical desktop ones but this holds its own for its size and is almost fun to type on. Battery life is insane, no shock there.Now, can this actually replace your laptop The short answer is maybe. For me personally, DeX is what I have been missing on a tablet to make the transition. I had a Tab S3 and just couldnt fully replace the laptop with it. But DeX really is game changing for tablets. I have been using this everyday at work Im a teacher and it has been my savior. Its super quick, handles the basic tasks I need, and best of all I can keep a ton of things open without any slowdowns. The s pen has allowed me to give my students feedback on work without having to collect papers, which has been a game changer. I was struggling at work techwise, but the S7 saved me. One thing I will say, as others have commented, the s pen slot on the case is amazing but can be hard to get used to without looking. Took me a few days.Is this the tablet for you If you are a teacher or closely related field, absolutely just go get it right now. Its light,easy to carry, well over a full day battert use, not to mention its just a beautiful device.Go pick this up for yourself or a loved one, you wont be disappointed.

within a couple of weeks, this humongous screen developed a small crack less than 1cm on the inside and went blank. contacted warranty support, they returned it to me after inspection after 15 days for nonpayment of repair costs. they captured my phone number and email wrong in the service ticket and i never received any callsemails. by far this is the worst customer experience.be warned this is monsterous screen and will break on its own weight and youll be left with no warranty coverage. either get a protective case and never hold the tablet on hand or get smaller screen. if a product unable to bear the realworld use case, and break on its own how is it not covered under warranty i dont understand

i got the galaxy tab s7 for christmas and this is an amazing tablet. the s pen is incredible and one of the main reasons why i switched from ios to android. my only real gripe is with the keyboard for the tab s7. while it works its nothing like the keyboard thats available for the ipad pro.samsung really needs to up their game with the keyboard accessary. at the very least the keyboard shouldve been backlit, and have auto correction and a more accurate track pad. samsung shouldve just copied apples magic keyboard.if youre looking for the one of the best if not the best android tablet currently available definitely give the galaxy tab s7 and s7 a look i think youll really like.

I got this new tablet to replace a slow Galaxy tab2 10.1 which I have used for quite a while. The new tablet is a pleasure to use in comparison since it so quick and responsive despite me using a slow internet connection. As an example the previous tablet kept on interupting video streaming sessions. The new tablet has fixed this problem. I also installed a 250 Gigs micro SD card to expand its memory capabilitities but was surprised to find out that I cannot transfer downloaded applications to it as I could do it with the previous tablet. This issue will limit the number of apps that I can load on the tablet. It would be nice if this issue can be fixed in a future updating of the android software. Screen colours are very good and the battery life is great. This 10 TABLET is also lighter than my previous model. The sound of the four speakers is great. The cameras are not the greatests but are acceptable since I have no plans about doing great photography with this tablet.

This tablet is like an on the go PC. I love the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7. Its very beautiful, looks very stylish and has great quality. I love the look, especially the fact that it has an edge to edge screen and came with a stylish S pen that makes navigation very easy and convenient. The screen is beautiful and the inbuilt speakers works perfect. Its power can last up to 14 hours before charging it again. I so much love its clarity and how easy it is for me to do my school work especially using the cameras for making school project videos. I was connect my console to it and played game on it as well. My PowerPoint presentation with this tablet is amazing as the screen resolution is wide enough for me to maneuver. I love digital painting, and this tablet makes it even more fun for me.

i have had several samsung galaxy tablets. i only use android and samsung makes the only very good android tablet. my only regret is that i did not buy the s7 plus as i think i would have loved the bigger screen.in reality, i cant find anything much different between the tab s4 that this tab s7 replaced. the mystic bronze is a pretty color but i always keep my tablet in a case so the color is not a big selling feature for me.the only negative i have is that if you choose chrome as your default browser, it hangs up a lot same thing as with my s4. i think this pretty much forces the customer to use the samsung internet browser and i feel that is not right. this only happens when clicking on a link in email and choosing chrome. opening chrome directly is just fine.

I have owned several samsung tablets in the past. They have all been great products and this one does not let down. It is extremely easy to set up and transfer all files and data from previous tablet as well as from phone. It functions seamlessly with all my other Samsung product. The screen quality is great. This tablet is larger than my previous but is thankfully lighter. The screenpicture quality is excellent, very vibrant and crisp. It easily connects with your computer,, so can go between both with the Dex function. This tablet is easy to use and I would hightly recommend this tablet to anyone.

Generally speaking I am happy with this tablet. It is fast, the one I ordered has 256 gb storage and 8 mb memory and with Samsung Dex and an optional keyboard it is like a Linux or Windows laptop.The pen is fine. What I like the most about it is that for basic stuff like simply writing you do not need to charge it. Charging it allows you to do additional tasks if you are interesred in them like taking a picture from a distance or navigate through it without touching it that is with gestures. I am not particularly interested in these additional things. The important thing for me is that it writes fine and it doesOn the negative side, I would have preferred if it had a earphone jack. One real inconvenience that I noticed is that it has two microphones and when I use it vertically to create a video for work purposes, one of them is too close to my hand and it records unwanted noise of my hand against the toblet cover. This does not happen if I use it horizontally since both microphones in that case are far from my writing hand. Nevertheless, I prefer to make videos vertically and it would be nice if Samsung would allow to shut off either of the two microphones to fix the problem. Personally I decided to use my Samsung S6 lite for making videos since it does not have the extra microphone and the problem does not exist. This is why I am not giving 5 stars to the s7.In conclusion, apart from this microphone inconvenience, it is a very nice tablet.

Nice android tablet but a bit too complicated to use as a traditional lab top.Im not quite sure what type of demographic market Samsung had in mind as far as the type of consumer they want to attract with this android tablet. Is it a phone or a portable lab top Well, Samsung says its both, okay…so why not include the combo protective cover, kickstand to prop up the tablet along with a keyboard and maybe a roller mouse with it Surprise, they dont include this. Samsung sells this at an extra cost, but its not included. The stand and keyboard is an extra cost to have this tablet converted into a lab top. So, technically its not a true lab top. Its difficult to manage and to handle in a position while attempting to work and type things on the onscreen keyboard with no stand nor actual keyboard. Also no headphone jack either, why This android tablet has WiFi capability… so if you want headphones, Samsung sells them as wifi earbuds. Mmmm, okay, but where are they I cant find them in the box the tablet came in Surprise That will also be an additional expense. All in all, the SAMSUNG Galaxy Tab S7 128GB WiFi with the S Pen Included has all the bells and whistles that you may or may not have wanted and many things you wish they had included you may have wanted, however that will cost you extra if you want to use this as a slimline portable lab top.

I am very happily surprised what Samsung has over a period of time and deliver a tablet which can really compete in all areas, with solid performance, great built quality, great display, inclusion of spen and optimized OS with spen functionality. You can literally forget the touch and may opt only to use spen . This tablet make me very productive to take online calls, screen sharing, drawing. using dex mode and a great keyboard support.I really liked Dex mode, it enables you to use as laptop but some apps are not optimized for it which I hope will improve over a period of time. Keyboard cover is very costly so I didnt opt for it I insist Samsung can really provide os and other updates to S7 tablet for longer use and stability being top notch product of this category.

My husband is active duty in the army, and I am a QA testerWeb developer, so we are heavily dependent on our computers as we travel a lot due to our military family lifestyle. I had previously a Galaxy TAB A with a Bluetooth keyboard and we were thinking of upgrading it to be more efficient in our workflow. I also draw as a hobby and I wanted a tablet I could put my design software on.Concerning the office work I do the tablet is perfect. The DEX screen mode is a sort of an operating system for a tablet that looks like your usual desktop. I found out that the battery lasts less in this mode, but I can still use it for full 5 hours.The first impression, the colors are bright and very engaging. The first use is very easy and straightforward and there are some preinstalled apps.I have the tablet with the keyboard, and I use it essentially for the office work part of my job.I have a daily battery life of 78 hours with heavy use and the fast charging is amazingI was genuinely impressed by the sound quality of the tablet. It is loud and clear, and I can easily use it in the kitchen when I am baking with my loud stand mixer on as background noise.Concerning the drawing part, I had to buy a glove because I like to use the pen and the finger to draw on the tablet, and you tend to draw with the side of your hand by mistake. You will have to invest in a special glove to avoid this kind of issue. The tablet is responsive and the watercolor work with the tablet is pretty decent.I have it for a month now, and I am conquered.Concerning my husband, he uses it for mail and streaming, but it does not replace his main desktop, as he uses a card reader that doesnt work on the tablet. There is also the fact that you can have Apps from 2 different stores, the Play Store and the Galaxy Store. I found that to be a little bit confusing.Overall, we have greatly upgraded our old Galaxy TAB A to a TAB S 7 and we do not regret it.

I was split between buying this or an iPad Air and am really glad I chose the Galaxy Tab instead. Build quality is great, 120Hz on the display is awesome, speakers are machined in a way to direct sound towards the user, and while this display isnt the amazing OLED version that comes on the plus model which is the only difference between this and the plus model, its still very good. Battery Life is probably my only complaint as it doesnt last all day like advertised but thats me using it for hours on end playing games, doing work, etc. A huge plus with the Samsung tablet over the IPad is that they include the S Pen with it rather than separately like Apple, so the only additional purchase I made with it was the Keyboard for it from Samsung. The Keyboard is alright but has its flaws, such a pretty bad trackpad and no backlit keys. Overall when compared to the IPad Air, you lose a slightly better screen and keyboard, and slight performance and optimization for certain apps, for a much better price tag I spent 650 for the tablet and keyboard, while apple is 650700 for just the tablet without the keyboard OR pen, included pen, cheaper keyboard, SamsungDex mode that essentially turns it into a laptop, and more freedom with your app selection. Great job Samsung, you finally made a tablet I can easily recommend over the IPad.

I have an Android phone, so it made more sense for me to get an Android tablet rather than an iPad. The Galaxy Tab S7 seemed like the best Android tablet on the tablet, and after using it for 10 days, I can safely attest to that.The hardware is excellent. Get the 256GB or 512GB variant the 128GB has only 6GB RAM for some reason. The build quality is sturdy and refined.The OS itself is very good, and I can answer calls and texts on it because I have a Galaxy phone as well.The app selection however, is limited by the lack of tabletoptimized Android apps on the Play Store. Its quite disappointing how Google has neglected the tablet space. Apple is way better in this area.ProsGreat internal hardwareBeautiful, large screen with small bezelsVery good build qualityS Pen included no way Apple would do thatConsSelection of tabletoptimized Android apps leaves much to be desired.Not certified water and dust resistant.Overall Im glad I purchased this device, as it gives me the Android experience in a tablet form factor. If you have an Android phone, this is your best bet.

I was in the market for a new tablet so did a lot of research then settled on this one. It arrived yesterday and as soon as I held it I knew it was right. It is super light which is a surprise for its size. Picture superb quality, so responsive. Love all the different things I can do. Pen is great Almost perfect. One thing let it down and it wasnt the tablet itself. All of the advertising speaks about versatility with the keyboard turning it into a virtual laptop. But no keyboards to be found in the UK. I spent hours aearching. I filled requests with several places to notify when in. So, 4.10pm I got an alert from Samsung whilst holding the tablet so I immediately opened the link, added to basket, clicked to checkout then it was out of stock. Ive managed to locate one from outside of the UK. I wish the whole package had been ready together took the shine off a little. Hence the 4 stars for a 5 star tablet

I upgraded from an Ipad Mini to the Samsung Tab S7 and I will never look back While the tablet is a lot bigger than an Ipad Mini, which took me awhile to get used to, the audio, screen and basically everything about this tablet is just phenomenal. I really wanted extra storage so it would last longer, and Ive barely made a dent in those 250 GBs. Also, the S Pen is the best Theres a function where you can turn your keyboard into a writing pad, so it will input your own writing with the S Pen into text, which has become my favorite way of typing. I love that the pen comes standard, too I love this tablet so much that Ill be getting a Samsung phone, too.

I have previously has the Tab S 10.5, Tab S4 LTE Tab S6 256gb. I really wanted this tablet for the screen size and pen. The screen is massive and the pen is much better than that of the S6 one. Now the issuesWhile scrolling, whether through photos or websites, the folks is very stuttery even at 120Hz one of the key selling point. You can easily see this.Apps Chrome, Microsoft and others crash andor reload. When this happens, I lose what I am working on. Particularly when Ive selected a dozen photos to upload and they disappear before being uploaded and I have to start again.Screen issue approx 8cm down on righthand size. If Im scrolling down using the little toggle in the stock photos app, it just gets stuck. I then have to scroll the screen about 8cm down and toggle starts working again.The fourth issue is with the secure folder. Where I open it, put in the correct password and the app crashes. This may happen 5 or 6 times before it starts or I have to do a forced stop andor restart the tablet.I have loaded all the same apps on this, that I had on my Tab S6 and that gave me no trouble at all. As I do a lot of multitasking work, photo editing, typing reviews, video editing, etc the problems with this are just a nightmare.I done all the usual fixes I no tech noviceSadly, I sold my Tab S6 or I would just go back to that. I think all I can do is return this one to John Lewis and get another one or a refund I dont want to go through the whole set up process and have the same issues. My final thought is whether there 6Gb of RAM is insufficient for the tabletNB These problems were there from the start San after the One UI 2.5 Update

The tablet comes in a white box with a picture of the tablet on the front of it. Inside the box, there is a terms and conditions packet as well as a quick reference guide. The reference guide includes information on the website where you can go for support if necessary. There were no further instructions. In addition, inside the box the tablet comes with an adapter as well as a USB cord that will work in any standard outlet. The charging port is on the bottom of the tablet. The tablet is 11 inches long and includes a pen. The pen attaches to the back of the tablet. The tablet also is slim and sleek. It didnt take long to charge and it was easy to setup. This tablet has many features such as facial recognition, fingerprint technology for extra security on your tablet. In order to add your fingerprint to the device, you must place your thumb on the side of the tablet and rotate it as instructed. It comes with your normal apps already installed with the option of course to add or remove apps of your choosing. This tablet allows you to connect other devices such as android and ios products. This Samsung Galaxy Tab s7 has a front and back camera also. Yes, I would recommend this to a friend or family member.

A few months ago, I bought the Samsung S6 Lite 10.4, but then the S6 Lite screen had a slight yellow cast to it and it had to go So then I purchased the GIGANTIC Samsung S7 Plus 12.4, but soon discovered that it was way too large, too heavy and too clunky. So I recently purchased this Samsung Tab S7 11 with 256gb and it is just right for me. PROS 1. The screen has a WHOPPING 500 Brightness Nits…the higher the Nits the brighter the screen. With higher nits, this screen is easier to see in sunlight. I place the brightness at 70 percent and it is very bright. While the S7 11 inch doesnt have the Super AMOLED screen that the S7 Plus has, I compared these two screens side by side and personally, I found the Tab S7 11 just as clear, just as vivid as the S7 Plus. And the screen of my S7 11 is a very bright white like the S7 Plus. The PPI Pixels per inch on the S7 11 are 274ppi, while the Plus is 266ppi. The higher the PPI, the sharper and clearer the screen is. 2. Light weight, easy to carry and the screen size is just right 3. Has 4 stereo speakers, very nice sound. 4. No 3.5 jack, but no problem because I purchased several USB C To 3.5 Adapters on Home Essentials Direct and I can use my favorite 3.5 Headphones. 5. Bottom line…Even though the screen is not Super AMOLED, it is super clear and vivid, colors are exceptionally good. Im so glad that I bought this 11 Tab S7 because it fits easily into my small hands and very easily into my purse or backpack. I highly recommend this tablet

When I first saw it in person at the store, I was impressed by its design and build quality The music black is stunning Matching mystic gold Note. This is an awesome tablet. Very thin, light, the largest is not huge. Being a tablet creative, more than pc although I need computing, it is a great value.Samsung bring back the creative focus of the tablet through marketing.This is hands down the best Wacom tablet replacement on the go. I love my Wacom. With S7 you made my dreams come true to have a portable tablet. The N20 is my absolute dream of pocket graphic tablet…Thank you, the tablet should have 12gb Ram to be a top dog. I dont get why it had less than the Note. Please why cant Europe choose between both processorsS Pen is fabulous for business, writing, sketching, noting, creativity, Art, drawing, painting, using the tablet for me precision than the finger with creative apps.Samsung… It is time for you to bring Procreate to the S7Yo Do your thing and get us exclusivity.I like Sketchbook too, but Procreate is all you need for all.Thank you

First of all the. Pros incredible build quality, awesome sounding speakers. Very fast and capable tablet,with at least 3 updates in all from samsung should see this tablet last quite a few years.Comes with an s pen unlike some competitors. The cons NO EAR PHONE JACK,inexcusable as far as i am concerned,had to buy a c hub. The screen on the s7 does not have white balance adjustment as does the bigger S7 plus,hence the screen has. Red shift problem. Eg the reds are not correct. My question is why Samsung didnt you include the adjustment in this device as you did in its bigger sister. The price brand new is ridiculous to say the least. I was blessed to score one that was hardly used,less than two months old,equipped with the top Samsung keyboard cover and screen protector for only 23 rds the price of the new unit without the add ons. Having used SMP 900s as daily drivers 122 note pros from Samsung for many years i was disappointed at the overall size of this device. My S2 ,97 inch tablet APPEARS BIGGER. This 11 device is great if you dont love big tablets,very compact. Dislike the home key buttons being digital AND ON THE SCREEN REAL ESTATE,interferes at times with operations. I plan on getting the bigger S7, due to the problem with its aspect ratio and diminutive size. I love big tabs. CONCLUSION, want a compact well built tablet,with a good , NOT great screen,my smp 900s screens have the same resolution and leve this unit for dead in that department that can handle everything swiftly,without having to clean ram every 5 minutes,then this is your baby. I am just glad i didnt pay the full brand new price. Do like i did shop around.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 is a very good product. The processor is powerful response time is fast. The screen display is bright, and the colors are brilliant. The camera takes beautiful pictures, and the 4 speakers provide a rich sound. I gave 4 stars because it is difficult to set up the fingerprint sensor I gave up after several attempts. Another reason I gave it 4 stars is because there is no headphone jack that seems to be the norm nowadays. Lastly, while I think the S Pen is useful and innovative, it would be helpful if there was a slot to store it. Otherwise the S7 Tab is a very good product that I highly recommend.

Ive only ever used ipads before. I was scared to make the switch because of the productivity the ipad offered, but it was the best decision I ever made for school, work, and leisure. I can read from my text books while writing notes. I can rest my hand while writing and it doesnt mess anything up. The only slight inconvenience Ive run into is the button on the pen. Im constantly accidentally pressing it when I write, but even that was a quick fix in a change of settings.I do suggest a cover with a pen holder though, Ive lost the pen a hundred times having too much confidence in the magnetic sides and charging strip.

from tab s4 to this tab s7. 10.5 to 11 inches. the keyboard cover case is a full keyboard to compare to tab s4. i choose the model with 256 gb of memory. the 128 gb also exist. the mystic color is nice. saving of 170. on black friday week sale. the compatible keyboard are 50 off. 140. instead of 280. you can add a sd card up to 1 tb of memory,something the i pad do not have. for me it not a problem the tablet do not have a port for regular ear phone,but you can use a bluetooth ear phone. if you need even bigger tablet,they have the tab s7 plus with 12.4 inches. the s pen is include with a safe compartiment within the keyboard cover case. samsung have a excellent customer service. the resolution of the screen is high.enjoy the saving before is sold out. you can order in line and pick up in store. amazon canada do not selling cheaper.

the physical tablet is great. love the size, the lcd display is beautiful, the location of the fingerprint sensor, the sound quality. it all goes out the window if the tablet is unusable, though. about 1 month in, i began experiencing app freezes and would need to restart. not a huge deal but annoying. today the tablet froze while in an app the usual restart seemed to work but then about 50 of my apps would open for a second and then close. clearing app cache didnt work, wiping the system cache didnt work. ive now done a full reset and still experienced some issues. this shouldnt be happening with a brand new expensive tablet.

After upgrading from Galaxy Tab S2 was very impressed with almost everything about the tablet. The screen is amazing, the pen is great and really accurate. The weight is also very light for this size.I was disappointed that I could only order 6GB128MB version and that the supplied power supply is only 15W. I preordered the table and I am still waiting for the free case and do note even have a date yes. The tablet feels too fragile without a case. I still cannot buy a keyboard case from Samsung so this has spoilt the experience. When the tablet arrived it was just in the retail box in a plastic bag so got damaged. I think that they should package better,

i have to say that the quality and overall performance of the tablet surpassed all of my expectations. this is such a beautiful tablet and absolutely perfect for school use, and everyday use. gaming has been taken to a whole new level especially with xbox game pass. i would say watch couple videos to learn hidden tricks with the s pen. the precision of the s pen such as highlighting phrasessentences is the only con i have found so far it doesnt select the text as precisely as i would want on microssoft note, or kindle appnook but that can be fixed with updates in the future. i would 100 recommend this tablet to any student, teacher, or anyone in general. samsung dex definitely got a lot better. keep up the amazing work samsung.

Im a firm believer that portable devices should be just that…portable. I dont need a gigantic cell phone or a laptop that requires its own walker. I like devices that are lightweight and easy to manipulate. The Samsung Galaxy S7 pushes the limits of what a portable device should be. The processor is fast the screen is sharp and bright but my fingers can barely reach all the keys on the keypad and thats with the thing in portrait mode. Ive come dangerously close to dropping it a few times while trying to type. When it comes to tablets, I think eight inches is just about enough Am I right ladies.
JerryS –
while the tablet is amazing there appears to either be a screen issue or keyboardcover design issue. i have the samsung keyboardcover and this morning i opened it up to discover a crack all the way across the screen. it was not dropped and yet somehow cracked sitting on a shelf. the only thing i can see that might have caused it is the keyboardcover making contact with the screen when it closes. i conducted an internet search to to discover a number of others have had the same issue with the screen cracking for no appearant reason. while this tablet is very nice use it with extreme caution and i would not recommend using the keyboardcover. at a minimum the keyboardcover did nothing to protect the screen, or worse, actually cracked the screen.

Preordered and received a couple of days before release and have been using for just over a week. Very impressed so far, responsive, great screen and the s pen is a lot more useful than I imagined it would be. I have the WiFi only version and the battery life is excellent.Doesnt come overloaded with too much bloatware as well and some of which can be uninstalled eg office 365 as I use Google docs. Not really tried out the camera too much as I use my phone for that normally dont quite see the point of it on tablets other than for video calls.Only criticism so far would be it seems to warm up quite easily even just on Gmail or youtube although I have been mainly using it on hot days while on holiday.Looking forward to getting a keyboard to try out using DeX pc type mode properly.

Ive been a diehard Samsung Galaxy customer since i broke my iPhone 8 and was forced to temporarily use a Galaxy S6 for a month, until I could lease the iPhone X. Needless to say, when it came time to upgrade I went with the Galaxy S9 with zero hesitation and left iPhone in the dust. Legit every person I knew couldnt believe it but it was within the first 24 hours of using the S6 that I knew I was going to be member of the Samsung Galaxy for as long as Samsung Exists. Ive owned the S6, S9, Note 9, Note 10, Note 20 5G, and currently the A71 5G. With the Note 10 I added Galaxy Buds and with the Note 20 5G i added the Galaxy Watch 3. I no longer have the watch, but only because I have no use for it and genuinely have never worn even a normal watch. Ive had my eye on a Samsung Flagship Tablet since the Tab S4 and FINALLY was in a position to purchase one about a month ago. I bought the Galaxy Tab S7 and the Keyboard Book Cover with Geek Squad total Protection for 1 year for under 750 with deals on both the Tablet and the Keyboard Book Cover. It is the best 750 I have ever spent on any electronic excluding my high school car audio system that i dont consider an electronic but a necessary appliance eg. Fridge, Toilet, Breaker Box lol ONE UI 3s Tablet interface is largely improved compared to stock Android and DeX transforms the Tab S7 from basically a giant phone OS to an OS and user experience almost totally on Par with Windows and MacOS. There are still a couple of kinks and improvements that need to be made to confidently claim that DeX is the best mobile computing platform and OS, but Samsung has already improved the experience in so many important ways, adding more and more apps to the list of apps that are DeX ready. Basically, if i have the keyboard connected, the Tab S7 is in DeX mode and when Im primarily using the touch interface I rely more on OneUI 3. The Tab S7 mine is Black is pristinely built. It looks amazing on the desk and feels and looks amazing in your hands. I love the mattesatin metal finish of the back, with the dark glass strip that houses the SPen and continues into the Camera Housing. I enjoy the ease of slapping the SPen right on the back to charge andor pair if need be and the back section of the book cover thoughtfully surrounds and protects the SPen with magnents strong enough to keep itself securely in place while still being extremely accessible and easy to flip down and grab the SPen. For the SPen to charge when its being stored on the back, the nib tip of the SPen has to be facing towards the camera housing. Ive heard people complain about this but tip towards the camera is the only way the SPen magnetically connects to the tablet. You also have the option to store the spend on the side beneath the volume and power button, which when youre using the keyboard Book cover, is the top of the screen. It doesnt charge here, but it does magnetically connect making it convenient and secure when you need it frequently and stowing it on the back under the cover would be annoying but i would only store it there while the Tab S7 is in use and as soon as youll be moving the Tablet stow it neatly on the back also allowing it to charge. There are Quad AKG Dolby Atmos enabled speakers that are incredibly loud, clear and full of rich, true to life sound. The 120 hertz adaptive refresh rate of the display makes operation so smooth and video playback extremely crisp and lifelike. I dont think the battery has ever gone lower than 30 in a single day. The rear cameras are surprisingly excellent and the front facing camera is the best Ive seen on any device, ever. Using the SPen is 2nd nature to me after years of owning multiple Note phones but this SPen experience is different and more satisfying in quite a few ways. Coloring on PenUp is by far my favorite way utilize the SPen. Ive used Microsoft Office Word Excel with the keyboard both in and out of DeX mode and was easily able to accomplish just as much as i would have on a regular PC. I cannot think of a single negative thing to say, other than Googles lack of focus on the tablet interface and tablet versions of Android apps is troubling. iPadOS is incredible and vastly improves the entire iPad experience. Making the whole user experience unique instead of just using a giant phone. Samsung has improved everything they possibly can, not google must focus on developing a tablet focused version of Android and Android Apps.

This tablet is replacing my original tab s that has finally stopped working so this is a big upgrade from what I had. I am mostly using this for gaming and some media consumption. I am not planning to use much of the word processing side of the tablet so I cant speak to much on how well that side works. I only use it for note taking and that seems to work well. So far I have not done much with the s pen. I have only tried it on a few apps and it works well I guess. I have never used a s pen before so I guess it is doing what it is supposed to. With only gaming so far not many support the use of the pen so I may never really use it. The games play great and run smoothly. So far there has been no issues with any I have tried. Driving and shooting games work well and have not caused any problems with stuttering or slowing of the tablet in any way. So if youre coming from a older tablet you should consider this one as a suitable replacement.

DPD are very careless I was ouside my door expecting it to be handed to me or placed near me due to covid but the driver threw the package right on the concrete floor and when i approached him saying did you just through The tablet he said yes smirked and drove off . i have took this futher with DPD and samsung Luckily the tablet wasnt damaged but its not the point. for delivery i would give less then 0 star rating but besides that the tablet is amazing. It so thin its uncanny and the weight is so perfect. I was worried about the software becasue its samsung. id say dont listen to those reviews the Tablet is so buttery smooth with its 120 Hz panel and i love how you can run 120 hz and 1440p at the same time. ITs so cool that i can watch youtube in 1440p in HDR as well. Samsung dex runs so well and i bought a USB type c hub so i can plug in my keyboard, mouse and Tv so it runs exactly like a laptop. The gaming on is amazing aswell the fact that a tablet runs fortnite the only game i tried better then my Xbox is unreal easily running at high graphics quality at 90 fps. THe speaker are easily the best speaker i have heared on any phone tablet or laptop. perfect bass clarity and surround sound. ONe thing to note is on tab s7 you cant change the screen colour temperature as i usually have it cool. apparenty the reason why is becasue it is an LCD note an OLED but you can do it on the tab s7 would highly recommend this tablet had so much fun using it . And the smoothness of the snapdragon 865 pus chip and the 120hz makes me want to upgrade my A51 to a flagship phones as now the 60 Hz isnt cutting it lol

We received the new galaxy tab 7, its good size but fits perfectly in my hand. Its a great deal to get this amazing huge tab for such a price. The camera seems to be ok but i like how fast, the device is. It was smooth with a 120hZ screen refresh rate. The audio is worth mentioning. The four speakers available on the device provide loud and clear volume. The quality of the audio is near perfect for movies, songs, games, and series. The battery life of the device is really good and i can easily use this device for 10 hrs. I was able to multitask like, watch videos, and check my mail all at the same time. There is a feature, where you can sync your phone to the tab and get all the calls and messages, just like you receive on your phone and thats wonderful. I totally recommended this to people who want to use a single device with a big screen for allpurpose. This device comes with a pen that is a lot better than the old one. It fast, smooth, and easy to grip. The setup was pretty simple and I was majorly using the keyboard for email and document preparation purposes. Pros excellent display, powerful speakers, Good design, Long Battery life Performance 120HZ however it needs Improvement inapp ecosystem expandable internal memory weight of the tab. Finally, the verdict form is great, works well, feels good, works great.

Great tablet for those wanting to switch over from smaller laptops, or upgrade their smartphones. In comparison to a 13 notebook, this tablet completely blows it out of the water.Benefits1. Its fast So much faster than a little notebook. Boot time is minimal, and apps open almost instantly. Havent had any issues with laggy software or slow loading times.2. Lightweight and slim. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 isnt heavy at all, which makes carrying it around a breeze. And the tablet has a smaller sized bevel still noticeable, but not intrusive at all.3. The S Pen. This handy stylus is more like a magic wand. Using it instead of a finger is great for keeping the tablets screen free of fingerprints. But the best part about the S Pen is all of the nifty shortcuts you can program it to do. Simply click the button on it and draw a pattern in the air and the tablet will go back, exit apps, change pages, zoom in the camera, switch modes, take photos, and so much more. The S Pen is honestly the best feature about this tablet. Recharging it is also a breeze. Simply stick it to the back of the tablet held in place by magnets and it will charge wirelessly from the tablet itself.4. Great visuals and audio. Completely blown away by the quality of the screen. The display looks crisp and vivid. It isnt pixelated at all. The audio is also super impressive. Its not sound bar quality, but definitely more than what was expected from this little device. Plenty of power and works well for streaming videos.5. Battery life. Even with heavy use, a full day is easily obtainable from the tablet. Charging is quick and uses a USB Type C, which is very handy.6. Storage. Lots of builtin storage space, with the option to add more with a microSD Card up to 1TB. Great for photos, documents, apps, and smaller sized videosmovies.Drawbacks1. The UI. Coming from a laptop, the user interface is difficult to learn. There is little explanation to what all of the different buttons and images do. This makes learning the system tedious and a bit stressful. Navigation is also tricky for new users, but similar to that of an Android phone. A lot of trial and error and messing around with the tablet is needed to properly figure out how to quickly and efficiently use it.Overall, the Galaxy Tab S7 is a fantastic little device and great for those wanting a larger smartphone, or for those wanting to move away from a similar sized laptop. Once the navigation of the UI is mastered, this little device puts most computers to shame. It is super simple and easy to use and the magic S Pen is a game changer.

I think the Tab S7 is a great android tablet. Vibrant screen, responsive touch and pen. The only issue I am having with the tablet is with the warranty for my serial . When I registered with Samsung my warranty showed expiration on October 31, 2021. The tablet was purchased on 1102021. I am not trying to claim an issue, but would like to get my full warranty if its needed later. I purchased the product as NEW from Home Essentials Direct and product came from a reseller. After contacting the reseller they are claiming that the product was not a preowned tablet. Very disappointed with the response from the reseller.

I am a previous Samsung Tab Tab A from about 45 years ago now user so this was a really nice upgrade for me Ill try to list as many features as I can that I like.I mainly use this tablet for business far starters. It would be a waste if all you did was use it for Hulu and Netflix. It does have some neat features.The stereo speakers. I was blown away at the volume and clear sound that comes from this little thing. I know other tablets have had great sound for years and years but this was nice since my older tablet had really poor sound and volume compared to this guy.The refresh rate and screen. I could immediately tell that this had great looking display but I didnt realize part of that was the 120hz refresh rate that helps things move smoothly on the screen.Comes with a stylus The stylus is clutch. I have one with my Note 9 that I use but this one really comes in hand during powerpoint and zoom presentations. Heres a tip When you start your powerpoint you can use the button on the stylus to click through AND write on it at the same time. Very handy.I use the whiteboard on zoom often to draw pictures and its 5x better than using my finger. I also use it to highlight and draw on PDFs. Nothing out of the ordinary but youre glad you have it when you need it.I didnt expect the fingerprint reader AND the facial recognition. Im used to just using a PIN but they work really well and for those of you that split hairs on how fast it unlocks you blink about as fast as it unlocks from the fingerprint. The facial one is slower in low light like if youre unlocking it in the middle of the night with your gf next to you to catch up on Thundercats or Handmaids Tale but in good lighting it works decent enough. I do not rely on the face unlock though. Fingerprint 95 of the time. Pin for the rest.Camera is good, nothing outstanding here.Battery life is what I would expect. My older tablet did a better job at holding a charge longer but it didnt have half the features and horsepower of this one. The good part about this is that I can use it during the week and only need to stop and charge fully once or twice which is perfect since I dont plug it in nightly like my cell. You can have it at 30 or lower and not worry about running out of power during your presentation. And even then there are power save modes to help with that.I did get a case from Amazon that has a great way of protecting and letting the stylus slide in and out and I do recommend that. Along with a screen protector to protect your investment.All in all its a pretty good package. The stylus is really helpful for me in the business world, the screen is big and bright enough to have clients see what Im showing them and take applications on and its a very professional device. Ill eventually take a look at getting the keyboard but for now Im doing just fine without it.I considered the surface pro as it was on sale but unless you NEED to windows environment and to run software this really does work fine. It comes with Office preinstalled and you can sign in or purchase it but I just use the free stuff to present and have had no issues.

First of all, the only reason I did not give this tablet 5 stars is because it is promoted as an 11inch tablet. It isnt. The screen measures 10 inches on the diagonal, exactly the same size as my old Galaxy Tab S4. That was a disappointment, but I did not want the 12inch Tab S7 Ultra because that just seemed too big and awkward for my needs.That said, this is a wonderful tablet with a brilliant, crisp, colorful screen. I thought I would be disappointed that Samsung did not make this tablet with the same OLED screen as the 12inch model. I am not the least bit disappointed in the image quality of this screen. Its hard to imagine how it could be any better.The Snapdragon 865 processor makes this tablet blazing fast. The larger memory option of 512 GB plus the ability to add extra storage with a Micro SD card just makes it better and better.Then there is the S Pen that comes as part of the package. You dont have to buy it separately as you would have to with an iPad Pro. This pen is finetipped and wonderfully sensitive. It can zero in on the finest detail.The speakers are robust. I havent listened to any music on this tablet yet, but news and podcasts sound clear and natural.I do recommend this tablet highly. It is well made, fast and beautiful.

i love the s7. i have only two complaints after almost a month. i wish it came with a paper users manual. online may not always be the best option for accessing information, particularly for new users. if your issue is that cant connect to the internet your online manual is useless.my second issue is annoying and i can see it becoming more so over time. i purchased the magnetic keyboard cover and in terms of functionality its awesome. the problem is that i am left handed and like so many other things it can make handling the tablet using one hand awkward. sometimes when i hold the tablet the cover gets in the way and i really wish i could move it to the other side. i wish you offered the tablet in a left handed version
Michael –
i chose the 11 model for several reasons. the s7 is much easier to hold then the s7, since i dont really use it for drawing, the extra 200 price increase for the s7 just wasnt warranted trying to hold the s7 in a rugged case gets heavy very quickly. i love the upgraded s pen, it works so well, and feels like an extension of your hand. the gestures take a little bit of time to get used too, but with some practice youll love the benefits. i chose the 128gb model, i bought a 256gb sd card ill probably never use all of it, but its there in case i want it. i bought the 2 year warranty,when you dropping 600 plus dollars, spending 89 for cracked screens, water damage, internal failure, and everything in between.bottom line, which ever s7 tab you choose, youll love

IV had the Samsung galaxy Tab s7 plus for a week or so now. I had previously owned the iPad 11 pro 2020. For me the tabs 7 plus is the better tablet. It comes with the SPen. It has a better quality screen than any iPad. The aspect ratio of 16.10 is superb for media consumption and viewing the web. Its an absolute beast of a tablet with more than enough power to run anything without even breaking into a sweat. It comes with DEX which is superb and developing all the time. This device is truly a multi media monster. There are 1000s of suitable well developed apps for this machine. Pay no attention to anyone saying android apps are garbage on a tablet. The best thing I ever did was selling my iPad 11 pro to buy this. Its a better tablet all round in my opinion. You can simply do more than on an iPad. The SPen is easier to use and better than apple pencil. The power of this tablet brings android in line with iPad for the very first time. Watching Netflix, YouTube etc on this tablet is an absolute pleasure. The sound quality is second to none and it runs on Quad HD at 120hz. For me thebtab s7 plus is a true iPad pro killer and the first android device to do so. Its cheaper, its better and easier to hold due to its dimensions. Well done Samsung

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 is a great multiuse tablet whether you are using it for work or pleasure. It has a really large clear screen and is super easy to see. I did find it a little heavy and hard to hold with one hand. I would definitely recommend a stand to make usage a little easier. I do however have small hands so someone with larger hands may not have that issue. I had many different apps open at the same time and had no problem with the tablet keeping up. The screen was responsive to the pen quickly with no lag. It was fantastic to use on a coloring book app I found. It was fast and easy to use. I found that the battery life was great. I was able to watch a movie and then send some emails and it still had lots left. I have yet ran the battery low. I did find the pen holder on the back a little odd and didnt really hold it well. Picture quality was fantastic and lots of space to hold many pictures. Overall it is a great tablet for multiple uses and would definitely purchase again.

So I bought this tablet with the idea of it being multipurposeful. Its my replacement for my Dell laptop that is going out, its my drawing tablet, as well as my entertainment for when Im on the road. I have used it to draw watch Netflix and type out some quick documents. So far this beautiful tablet is doing wonders. The startup was very easy and quick to do with simple instructions. The pen in my opinion has great traction with the tablets screen. Ive hadnt had anyone issues so far while using this tablet, even with multiple apps open and running. I would recommend anyone looking for a tablet that comes with a pen to look into purchasing this one.

The first thing I noticed out of the box was the outstanding quality of the screen, together with the S Pen and the 120hz refresh rate, it makes it a delightful experience to create notes and drawings as well as reading comics with all vibrant colors popping out of the screen.It has a big size but at the same time is not heavy and is easy to maneuver, it has a huge capacity as well as possibility to extend it with an external drive which for me is a huge plus given that with a higher quality of camera and media nowadays, it is fairly easy to reach the maximum capacity.It is the first Samsung tablet I have and it is exceeding all my expectations. I have it for a few days now still discovering all possibilities.Totally worth it. I Recommend.

Having waited for quite sometime, finally the Tab S7 LTE variant is here is Malaysia. Overall build quality of this tablet is excellent and solid builtfeel. Although the S7 only comes with the LTPS LCD, it is still a very beautiful screen and color reproduction is accurate. The 120Hz refresh rate does make the UI and user experience a plus point.Though some features which I would hope Samsung did is to include the 45W Fast Charger with the tablet in order to maximized the Fast Charging 2.0 capability of this tablet. One thing to note is that the Tab S7 LTE variant doesnt come with any cover nor keyboard like their other siblings variant.Upgrading from Tab S3 to this tablet is just fantastic and worth it.

Im so happy with my Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 with the S Pen. It was super easy to configure following the initial steps. The pen feature is super cool to perform actions without touching the screen like a remote control for playing videos or taking pictures, the gestures for the air actions are very easy to learn. You can take notes with the pen and draw using the Samsung Notes app and mix typing with manual writing. The sounds when you are writing, erasing are very realistic. It came with the Clip Studio Paint App for those who love drawing and painting, even for does who dont it will be very attractive. The characteristics of the Tablet are Model number SMT870, Android version 10latest one. Display 11inch with 2560 x 1600 resolution, total storage space is 128GB expandable up to 1TB, memory RAM is 6GB upgradeable to 8GB and it came with a fast charging cable. Between system memory and apps you will have 100GB for storage remaining. The tablet count with a Longlasting battery, I haven count exactly how long but I watch several chapters of a series from Netflix without the need to recharge it for a couple of days and still have lot of remaining battery. Another good thing of this tablet is that you have the option to add a keyboard to it. I love the Samsung brand for all my technology toys phones, PC monitors, TV, tables, and more. I have trusted this brand for very long and never had disappointed me. Im super happy with my tablet so pretty, so light, so fast, bright colors, … Amazing

My six year old tablet got a swollen battery so I replaced it with this tablet. Wow what an upgrade I got it with the keyboard cover that was on special for half off. I use it a lot more than I thought I would. There are plenty of reviews out there so I will just say that this tablet has been flawless so far. The latency with the S pen is so much better and that makes it a pleasure to use. I have a laptop but sometimes this tablet is just a better choice due to size, portability, battery life, and simplicity. The size is nice but I would have gone smaller before going bigger, depends how portable you want it to be. Tablets can still be very useful even as their popularity has decreased. Is it worth the price Only you can decide, but for me it was.

After going through a couple small, promotional tablets, I finally took the opportunity to get a regular, real tablet. What with LG getting out of the mobile department, and not wanting any Apple product, Samsung was about the only choice. Definitely not disappointed Small learning curve coming into it with its own operating features, but definitely worth it Volume is incredibly loud. Screen can be very bright in sunlight. The external CD card is very welcome The fact that the pain attaches to the exterior, and not an internal slot is slightly problematic. The transfer was very easy. I now have a tablet that can be loaded up with apps to virtually mirror my mobile phone use.

I recently purchased an openbox Galaxy Tab S6 at a very deep discount of 40. However, I wanted to check out the S7 to see if I had made the right decision. Purchased the S7 at only a 20 discount but ultimately decided to keep it and return the S6 for the following reasons1. Battery life The battery of the S7 is much better than the S6 under the conditions that I typically use the tablet. With battery saver on and all apps closed in the background, the S6 gets between 1113 hours of continuous YouTube viewing regardless of screen brightness.The battery life of the S7 varies tremendously. At around 90 screen brightness the battery lasts 89 hours, 50 is 1214 hours, and 33 which is still bright on at 500 nit screen is 1920 hours. Since my viewing habits fit in the latter two categories, the S7s battery life is superior to the S6.Also, it should be noted that the S7 has an 8,000 mW battery and the S6 has a 7,000 mW battery. So the S7s total battery life will be longer than the S6.2. Pen. The S6s pen is not as good as the S7s pen. It is too narrow for use over an extended period of time, the low placement of the button causes too many accidental touches, and the tip is too mushy for my writing needs.3. Size. The screen size of the S7 is bigger so reading and writing on PDF documents are more pleasurable than on the S6. The S6 fees better for noting taking, but I already have a Note Air for that activity.4. Updates. The S7 will receive updates from Samsung for a year longer than the S6.Along with the price, the only major downsides are the size and screen. The S6 is lighter and smaller than the S7 which makes it much easier to hold with one hand. This is a consideration for people who like to andor spend a large amount of time holding their tablet.The S7s screen is not AMOLED. For that reason, it is not as crisp and sharp as the S6s screen. That said, you only notice it when you put the two tablets sidebyside. Also, the AMOLED screen definitely drains the S6s battery.There are reports of the S7.s screen having a yellowish tint. When I lay the screen on a table and look at it from a very low angle the yellowish tint is very apparent. When I look at the screen directly the yellowish tint is far less noticeable. It should be noted that at the right angle the S6s screen also has a yellowish tint but not to the extent of the S7.Final thoughts All things being equal, I would recommend the S7. If it is a choice between the S6 at a good discount and the S7 at full price, get the S6. If both are discounted, get the S7…

switched from an ipad, the galaxy tab s7 is a great tablet. although the price tag is steep, if you got the s6, id trade it in and get the s7. despite the lack of amoled, the display and 120hz refresh rate is great. the cpu is also a little more future proof. i went with the base 6gb 128 gb, the tab does not struggle to keep up with me at all. from light gaming to creating documents, watching youtube, online shopping and just browsing the web, this was a great investment. the navy color is amazing as well. camera is great, battery life is plenty and it charges quick with the 25w charger. all in all, if you got the money, i would gladly pay the price for what youre getting here. the tab s7 is an absolute productivity media consumption beast of a tablet. i highly recommend it
Brian –
i upgraded from an tab s6 to the s7 since i really wanted the 120hz refresh rate. the screen on the s7 is a big upgrade from the tab s6. it is colorful and the 120hz refresh rate is amazing on such a large screen. the keyboard case that comes with it is alright the keyboard is a good size but the track pad is not very responsive. the battery life is alright, but you cannot throttle the cpu without lowering the refresh rates, like you can on the s20. if you want a laptop, i dont think that samsung dex is a good substitute for windows. samsung dex feels like a cheap version of windows. if you value the 120hz refresh and large screen, id recommend the s7. otherwise go for the s6.

After having this tablet for a few weeks, I can come to the conclusion that this is by far my favourite place to watch movies. HDR content is truly stunning and the AKG quad speakers are so much better than I could have ever hoped for.This is also a fantastic place to play games and the latest chipset from snapdragon has allowed me to emulate and play gamecube games in much higher resolution than I thought possible.Using the included Spen really makes interactions with the beautiful display a breeze, the included gestures help me to screenshot and create fun little notes to send to my friends.Tab S7 has one of the most elegant in hand feels I have had for any device, being super thing while still feeling solid.

This tablet is awesome, better than an iPad Pro IMO. Love the builtin S Pen as well, I use it almost everytime Im using my Tab S7. It really only has 2 flaws thats that for some reason Samsung decided to only put an OLED display on the Galaxy Tab S7 not the smaller 11 Tab S7. Probably to force hardcore Android enthusiast like me to spend the extra cash, but I didnt want a massive 12.4 tablet. 11 to me was already too big for me, which is my second flaw. My sweet spot is 8 8.9 sizes like I had with my two old Nvidia Shield Tablet 4G LTEs or my Galaxy Tab 8.9 from way back in the day. Now the best part of this tablet other than the S Pen, is the Samsung Dex feature. It makes this tablet really feel like an actual Windows laptop, I absolutely love it. I prefer a virtual keyboard, so I dont know if Ill ever get that official Samsung keyboard cover. I totally recommend this tablet though Samsung, shame on you for not making it OLED. Otherwise itd be a 5 out of 5 stars.

I purchased the S7 Tablet to replace my Apple Mini 2nd generation, it was outdated but still works, processor was slow 9.35 safari. I love the S7s response time apps. It can even make calls. I picked the LCD resolution due to less headaches eye strain than the S7 reviews. I really hope to keep this tablet for awhile Samsung continues to update auto software to stay on top of Apple. I was always an Apple girl, not anymore. The rest of my family have Apples Pros Macs, Apple Ipads. But the Samsung even comes with a SD slot 128gb the Apple Air only has 64gb not expandable. Im sticking with Samsung. YouTube was a life saver with helping me with my set up tips tricks for this device. The Cons the keyboard us flimsy not backlit. The tablet is slightly heavy but not bad. Would be nice to have a bookcase option instead of the keyboard case it gets in way when Im in bed brousing the internet, not a problem I can order accessories online. So. Happy with my S7 Tablet

I have loved our new Samsung Galaxy Tab S7. Weve had many tablets before, but this one takes the cake. While it does the normal stuff of quick and easy browsing, streaming and the like, the ease of the S pen makes this my go to for note taking.Its incredibly easy to just take a quick note, that I dont have to worry about keeping pen and paper nearby. Business meeting with follow up, check. Notes when random idea pops in to your head, check. Kid wants to draw something, check.The tablet has a beautiful screen for all activities. And the sound is superb. The 4 speakers produce more than enough punch whether listening to music or watching a movie.Absolutely love our new tablet

Ive owned several tablets before but none even come close to this. The display is so good I actually this this more often then my TV when steaming. The speakers are more than adequate and better than I expected quite frankly. I absolutely love the high refresh rate and now anything less is just simply unacceptable. Touch response is great and I like the embedded fingerprint scanner, works perfectly and very speedy. Performance is beastly having never experienced any lag no matter what Ive thrown at it. Multitasking is amazing and the RAM management is eveything I need it to be. Tablet is absolutely premium and you can definitely feel it in the build. Cameras also are adequate enough for scanning documents which is all they should be used for and and the front facing one worked great for conferencing. Stand by battery management is excellent as well as overall battery life. Ive used it for several hours at a time and was surprised at how little the battery dropped considering the size and brightness of the tablet. Also, love that it supports super fast 45W charging, I can get from around 20 to a full charge in a little over an hour which is amazing. I definitely would recommend this tablet to anyone who is looking for a premium tablet experience.

there are lots of things i love about this tablet its fast, it has great battery life, i love the new 120hz refresh rate, the s pen is even better than the tab s6. i also like surprisingly the fingerprint sensor in the power button it works great. i bought this model because i thought the smaller size would be more comfortable to use than the s7. however… the only thing i dont like about this tablet is and this is a big one the lcd screen. the tab s6 had an amoled display, so the lcd on this model is a downgrade. i use my tablet in the dark a lot, so i notice it much more than i thought i would… i may exchange this one for the larger model because of this.

First of all, I cannot say how beautiful this tablet is the moment I received it in my hands. Having been a Samsung user from television to mobile phones to previous tablets to washer and dryers, this one takes the cake when it comes to peak performance when on the go. As I mentioned, ive had previous samsung tablets from the original note tablet to the previous generation tab series and it amazes me to see how far technology has came. To sum this Tab S7 up, its basically a 12.4 AMOLED screen in the palm of your hands with all the bells and whistles.I really like the fact that if you have a newer samsung device, you can have it synced to your device when you receive or need to send out phone calls and text messages. This process is very easy. No need to get up to grab your phone in the other room when you receive a phone call or needing to send a text. This has happened to me on numerous occasions and I love it.With the Samsung keyboard, you wouldnt need to use a lapbtop or a computer at all to to basic work or browsing. Prior to having this device, I was barely able to get by with out a pc when im at home. Would only have access to a pc at work. DEX mode is part of what makes this tablet phenomenal The fact that you can wireless sync to most televisions makes your television monitor a big screen or another display output.As part of this tablet package, you receive an SPen in which the other name brand tablet charges a premium for. This is perfect for those artists on the rise or just feel like using a pen to to navigate around. The best part of it is that its holds up via magnet in two places. And with the keyboard case, the there is a dedicated slot that holds your pen in place so no fear of losing it.This is the perfect tablet for when youre on the go. This beautiful 12.4 inch AMOLED is the perfect travelers companion when you want to watch movies or your favorite show when on the go. The Quad AKG Dolby Atmos will put your ears in amazement. But i recommend a nice bluetooth headset as the sound will definitely distract your neighbors around you

After few minutes using this device I was just speechless Never been so surprised about a piece of tech since the Nokia N9.I wont talk about design and quality, as its obviously top class…The performances of this tablet are on different level Its so fast and smooth that probably you will need to get used to. Multitasking and Dex are a game changer on this device, as Samsungs apps Internet, Mail, Notes, Write on pdf….Ive been using few professional apps like Miro, Adobe Comp, Clip Studio and Im more than satisfied. Ive also installed Figma as a webapp using Samsung Internet and Im impressed how it works with the S Pen.Lastly, the battery is infinite.Best tech purchase in the last 10 years.If interested, buy it without hesitation.

I upgraded from a Galaxy Tab S3 and the S7 is a huge jump in performance. We have gigabit fiber internet and I was only getting 70 Mbps speeds on my S3. With the S7, I am getting closer to 550600 Mbps. That alone makes me happy with this purchase.The screen on this tablet is amazing. Everything looks so crisp and bright. The sound is also excellent. I had to use headphones on my S3 to hear videos clearly. With the S7, the speakers are excellent and headphones arent necessary.Ive also noticed that the batterylife on the S7 is much better than the S3. I use it only moderately and the tablet will last about 4 days.Overall, Im very happy with the S7 and highly recommend it.

Upon opening my Tab S7, it screamed premium to me. I loved the design and thinness of the tablet itself. The brushed aluminum on the edges make it seem so nice and like eye candy. Booting up the tablet and experiencing the 120hz that complements my Note 20 Ultra was an amazing experience. It was a very easy process attaching the keyboard as well unlike the previous gen which had some flaws but thankfully its magnetic now The redesigned S Pen is a joy to hold and use since it seems like an actual pencil with its roundedness. All around its very improved and I love using it whenever I can.

I received the Samsung Galaxy Tab and I absolutely love it. The size is perfect for me. It was easy to set up when removing from the box. I connected it to my wifi with a breeze. I love that it switches between tablet and Dex desktop mode. The colors on the display are so vibrant, watching movies on the tablet is now a treat. I love the speed of the tablet, it has no delays when loading to the internet or pulling up various apps. The storage space is was a great surprise, I had no idea it would be so much. I use the tablet for work, fun, and games. I cant forget about the Dolby digital sound, awesome This is truly a dream come true, best tablet ever

After receiving a cash gift from work for long service I decided I would treat myself to a tablet. After much deliberation between the Samsung and an iPad, I took what I thought to be a brave decision to go down the Tab route. Ive not regretted it. There is still so much Im learning about the interface, Ive no issues with it compared to an iPad. Its a brilliant screen, great sound, I dont use a massive array of different apps but the ones I do work faultlessly on the tab. Its perfect for watching sky go and BT sport, you tube etc is brilliant on it. I love the stylus that can with it. I bought the standard Samsung casestand like throne with the inbuilt keyboard and its perfect. I cant think of any real negatives, Im really happy with it.

the screen is gorgeous and the tablet is very responsive and battery life seems excellent. the 2 big reason i returned it are first the android tablet ecosystem is weak the second issue is a samsung issue and that is the 1610 nature of this screen. in landscape mode the width is great, but the height it far to squatty. this is not too bad until to go to type, the the keyboard take up a huge amount of the screen and the keys are too short. too bad as i truly liked the experience and going back to my ipad felt toy like and dumbed down. samsung needs to really make the size comparable tot he larger ipad pro to be significantly useful. maybe the tab s8 will be the one for me.

I was looking for an upgrade from my old Lenovo tablet and, with some reservations, am so glad I chose the Galaxy Tab S7.It has a beautiful build quality. The metal and glass feel perfect in my hands and the sharp corners help to hold this tablet.The tablet is about the size of a book when held in either aspect.The LCD screen is gorgeous. The colors are vibrant, and the blacks are inky. Text is crisp and well defined and video playback is excellent.The quad speakers are good and plenty loud even at only 75 volume.The issue I have with this tablet like with all Samsung products is the amount of bloatware Samsung loads onto their devices that cannot be removed. only some of the apps can be disabled, but they still take up memory, some dont allow you to switch off notifications or permissions, and Samsung always wants to update them. This is annoying because you have to go through settings again to switch everything off again.I would recommend this tablet ONLY if you dont mind the hastle.
