Great Product

I own several Samsung products (TVs, phones, and a laptop) as has been my experience, these products have met and exceeded my expectations. Because of my experience, when I went looking for a new tablet, Samsung was at the top of my list. I bought the galaxy tab pro 8.4 and could not be happier. It is an excellent business tablet with all the power and features I need for my business. I highly recommend this product. If you like Android, you will love this tablet. Nice balance between a phone and full size table.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Have had for 30+ days now. Love the size, speed, clarity of screen. All features working well, very easy initial setup. Syncs well with other Android device I have. Have already recommended this Pro Tab 8.4" to family/friends.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, can add micro card add'l storage fits in purse.
Cons: samsung tablet cover case too heavy/bulky for me--, other cases hard to find due to 8.4" size.

Galaxy Tablet Pro

I already had had a pleasant experience with Samsung products as I own a Galaxy smartphone. Although I had originally purchased a tablet with a different operating system (not android), I promptly returned it as I quickly found out that it was not user-friendly, not compatible with my computer, and the manual was written by programmers for programmers. Following this bad experience, I purchased the Galaxy Tablet Pro and had no trouble setting it up - also, it automatically synced with my cell phone and downloaded all the pertinent data and apps.
I absolutely love it - I am no longer a slave to electronic manufacturers with proprietary operating systems that are only compatible with their systems. Additionally, the availability of apps is considerably larger and more extensive with the android operating system.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, very easy to use, good value, light weight, excellent resolution, easy to navigate, has a fast processor, has a great camera, nice display, you name it it has it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

so needed; so perfect

I needed to get myself organized with a new calendar system that I could carry with me everywhere I went; I also needed to be able to record interviews and take photos of the interviewees for a newsletter that I edit.
This was the definitive solution.
The only problem is: seriously: DO NOT play Angry Birds while driving, even "only when stopped in stop-and-go traffic." You will need a new front bumper.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Lightweight, it's a very good listener
Cons: don't use while driving.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Tab Pro 8.4 is a phenomenal product

I have been blown away by the screen resolution and performance since Day 1. The speaker location on the bottom is cumbersome when watching videos in landscape but other than that I wouldn't change a single thing! Best tablet on the market under 10 inches.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, high performance

Samsung phones and tablets are my favorite work stations

As a professional writer, I do all of my work on Android phones and tables. That means Samsung. I interview celebrities on my Samsung phone. I write about celebrities on my Samsung Galaxy TabPro 8.4. I edit interviews on my Samsung Note II. And I file my work online via my TabPro. This is the future. Convenience. Ease of use. Portability. Life in the power of your pocket.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, how about "amazing"
Cons: android runtime would add speed

The best tablet on the market!

I have an Asus full size tablet and a Nexus 7. Both of those are are quite good and for the price I cannot complain about either. However, this beats them both. Even at a higher price, the speed and quality of this tablet is second to none! The screen is amazing. The camera is spot on in terms picture quality and speed. It does come with a lot of pre-loaded app. Some of which are perhaps not necessary but has nothing I could call bloatware. Very happy with this tablet and highly recommend it!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Lightweight

Leading the pack

I had high hopes that this would be a great product after reading several professional reviews that really went into detail on what the tablet could do. Overall, the tablet doesn't disappoint, but I feel that it appeals more so to users like myself who simply want more features and a home screen that actually does more than show app shortcuts.
I have a 1st gen iPad Mini and the two are night and day. They keyboard on this may seem cluttered at first glance but its a joy to use. The letters actually change case when you hit the shift key, its much easier to type with, and there's a numbers row always visible. Typing in portrait is a joy compared to the Mini and its a combo of the keyboard and the width of the tablet, which is a double edged sword. My personal feeling is that too thin of a bezel creates problems when trying to hold the tablet without touching the screen, and this definitely has that issue. Even on the bottom there's no where to really hold it without touching the capacitive keys.
Music is one thing I use my tablet for and I initially had an issue with Kies 3 and how it managed my music. Don't use it. I went into Windows Media Player and was easily able to load up my playlists because all Kies 3 was good for was loading the music on, artist by artist. So overall getting music on the tablet was on par with iTunes, except for the fact that setting up sync in WMP isn't as straight forward as iTunes.. Videos are easily done through Kies or dragging and dropping. Speakers on the tablet are loud but become ear piercing at high volumes. The Mini's speaker is much better sounding and just as loud.
As far as the software goes, its Android and iOS, two very different operating systems. Android is more my style with its customizable home screen and contextual menus and options in general. I never experienced any real lag, but swiping between magazine UI home screens isn't instantaneous. It does have the RAM however to deal with a lot of things at once. Can't say that about the Mini. The multi-window view is pretty cool too but it took me a little while to figure out how to use it, and I can't say I use it for much of anything yet. One issue with Android on this tablet is the lack of certain apps that would otherwise be available for the Android phone. My ESPN ScoreCenter is nowhere to be found.
Lastly, when it comes to battery life, I'm still up in the air about it. Obviously it depends on how much you use the tablet, but my preliminary findings are that it has slightly worse battery life than my Mini which can go about 3-4 days for me with moderate usage.
I don't have any comment regarding the cameras because I don't use them. Don't see a point. It's nice to see the Galaxy has a flash though.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, great keyboard, sharp display, microsd slot
Cons: limited internal memory, speakers too high pitched
I would recommend this to a friend!
