All Samsung Tablets Verses Each Other
During the last year, Samsung have lunched many tablets. Most of them have similar specification. But at the end there are difference.
Galaxy Tab 7.0
Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus
Galaxy Tab 2 7.0
Galaxy Tab 7.7
Galaxy Tab 8.9
Galaxy Tab 10.1
Galaxy Tab 2 10.1
Galaxy Note 10.1
All of these tablets are compared in the link below

8.9 LTE Tab isnt on there
Note is the best.
Tablets are first and foremost about screens. I've had most of them and I can honestly say that the 7.7 is so way out there above others, there's no comparison. The 7.7 in super amoled + is absolute the reason to get a tablet. If I had to sell a person his first tablet, without knowing him, I would take the 7.7 with me. So thin and classy, can't go wrong with it, well, until you really try the note.
When you get the note, you'll see how cool the pen is. A pen with thin tip that is.
The bigger tablets need urgently 1. A pen, 2. Crazy high resolutions.

I have just upgraded to a galaxy note 10.1. I can honestly say that I prefer the size of my 8.9 to the 10.1 but really wanted the s pen and multi screen. As I am in need of a new phone I've put my 8.9 on a swapz site hoping to be able to swap it for a good android phone. I have had a few offers but not sure what to go for. I have been offered an S2, a note 1 or an S3 (obviously he wants cash aswell for the S3). Which would you guys recommend I go for?. Obviously what ever I go for, it won't be stock for long

Note
You can have a whole note family. S2 is awful, dont take it! And if you would like to pay, get the s3, but i would recommend note, it is better for gaming because of the huge screen.
The decision is yours!
Cheers
Hit thanks if I helped!

Thanks I had the note before and loved it but did think it was too big as a phone .... But the S3 feels about as big. Thought the S2 might be a cheap alternative but see the Note 1 is fetching about the same as the S2.
If its a s2 skyrocket get it. I love mine.

Hi,
Does anyone know of a kids case similar to the Samsung galaxy tab 3 7 kid edition one but for the Galaxy tab 3 8?
Kind regards,
I have been looking myself this listing claims its for the 3/4 but I am not sure how that is possible as the camera position is different on 3 vs the 4
I can't post the link.. but if you search amazon you will see this listing..

Hello Everyone ,
i have a little question
I had already a samsung galaxy s4 value edition, and I have already solded , and now i want a buy a another smartphone
which is the best? Samsung galaxy note 3 neo or Samsung galaxy s5 mini ( Finger print i love it hihi but check this comment from another member for finger print http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55297050&postcount=4 his say isn't fluid ) , or i buy again s4 value edtion
Sorry for my bad english
Purchase the the mini s5. :good:
I have no problems with fingerprint.
Runs very well. :good:
In addition, we need here in the mini forum every man.
Maybe you're a dev and can make good Roms for us... :fingers-crossed:
Purchase the S5 mini brother ! :highfive:
thank you very much , i have another question , for battery life is it good ? I await the opinions of other people and i I'll buy
I recommend Note 3 Neo because it has the s-pen which is great, it's bigger than S5 mini with 1 inch and it's more performance. You need to thing two times before you buy one of these phone. Note 3 neo is performance, but s5 mini has a fingerprint sensor and it is water resistence.

Ok the battery is only 2100mAh and the Neo has 3100 mAh.
My phone is now running 17 hours and I still have 68%.
I make some phone calls, internet and email.
But you have to decide now.
The mini has some features that the neo has not.
Fingerprint, Heart Rate Monitor, Waterproof ...
@ Radu27
Yes S-Pen is good.I also have a Galaxy Note 2. :good:
The two phones are very different. We got both in our family. The note neo is the big one which you can use best with both hands. The S-pen is a goodie but is not often used. The display is very good and the os works fluid.
The S5 mini is my new favorite. It's perfect to use with one hand, very fast and got an very sharp and detailed display! The fingerprint sensor never got any problem.
You have to decide between a business phone (used with 2 hands) with the pen (writing or painting) or a small one which you can carry with your trousers and write with one hand!
So, I hope this will be helpful. Excuse my English.
I strongly disagree with the guy above about the S5 minis display. It's soooo far from sharp and detailed as it gets. The 720p resolution just doesn't do it on this phone. It's impossible to read small fonts and read Web pages without zooming. Unfortunately a deal breaker for me!
I can buy a brand-new, unopened-in-box Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 or 8.0 on Craig's List for $300. I'm deliberating which one I should get. I'm leaning towards the 8.0 because of its portability. (I'm coming from a Galaxy Tab S 8.4.) Which one would you get and why?

9.7, because I use it mainly for reading and browsing desktop mode websites.
I bought the 8" and previously I had the Note 8.
I prefer the 8" for portability, light, easy to hold.
I had a 10" before, not Samsung and I don't feel I'm missing anything by having the 8.
I wish they had upgraded the Note 8 but mine no longer kept a charge for more than 1 -2 hours.

Almost certainly the 9.7 model. Its still highly portable and the extra screen area makes all the difference.
I went from a Note 8 to a Note 10.1 to the S2 9.7. I'd definitely recommend the 9.7". It's extremely light and portable and it seems like there's a bit of a better accessory selection for the 9.7"".
Oh, and according to math the screen is approximately 1.7" bigger
I had the 8 for a day, cause i thought it would be nice to have a smaller tablet, and it just wasn't working for me. So i went and got the 9.7 version and it's much better, for me.

I prefer 8.0 and using it now, great for reading and gaming in hand. Previously I always get bigger edition +/- 10" tablet and I was wrong getting it, it is too big and troublesome on handheld gaming.
Or should I just hang on to my trusted, first-generation Tab S? It would cost me about $100 to upgrade to the S2 if I take buying a case and tempered glass screen protector into consideration.
--Ron
I looked into this a bit more. I took my Tab S 8.4 to Best Buy and did a thorough side-by-side comparison with a Tab S2 8.0. I've concluded it's really not worth upgrading to a Galaxy Tab S2 from my original Tab S. It would cost me too much to upgrade, particularly with a new case and a tempered glass screen protector, and the upgrade simply isn't worth it. So I'm going to hang on to my trusted Tab S.
--Ron
Well, actually... I just found a Galaxy Tab S2 on Craig's List with an official Samsung book cover, which I was able to negotiate down to $280, so I might take the plunge after all.
--Ron
had a note 8.0 before,and I love the 9,7 screen,also its just 80g heavier (including the cover),so its not more a strain on the hand than the note 8.0 was.
did I mention I love the screen ?
I think everyone thinks it's not worth the upgrade. Me Inc. Until you get the Tab S2
And after a couple days you realise it really is we worth kt
I took the plunge. I was able to sell my Tab S 8.4 with official Samsung book cover for $260 on Craig's List and buy a brand-new-in-box Tab S2 8.0 with its official Samsung book cover for $280 (also on Craig's List), so I basically upgraded for 20 bucks. Quite a good deal! I'm going to set up my new Tab S2 tonight. Am very curious!
--Ron
I ordered a Used Like-New condition S2 8.0 from Amazon Warehouse Deals for $300, which is actually just $285 after my Prime Card 5% discount, plus $10 for the skinomi glass skin protector.
9.7 is less comfortable in one hand for me, but it's a matter of preference, you probably know which size tablet you prefer if you've ever owned one or used a friend's or seen one in a best buy.

I amm very interested in getting either a S 8.4 or S2 8.0 mainly for reading books, can you offer your insights? THanks!
I love my S2 8.0! It runs much more smoothly than the S 8.4. On paper, the specs aren't that much better, but in practice I'm seeing a big performance improvement. I thought that the lower screen resolution and 4:3 aspect would bother me, but they really don't. The screen is still gorgeous, and the aspect ratio works just fine, also for watching videos. If your main purpose is for reading books and web browsing, then I'd say definitely go to the S2 8.0, unless you can find a screaming deal on the S 8.4. You basically can't go wrong with either. I'd suggest to look on Craig's List, where you can find great deals on both the S2 8.0 and S 8.4. I can imagine that many of these tablets will be offered after Christmas.
Good luck deciding!
--Ron
IMO, it's the same amount of inconvenience to lug around an 8 inch or 9.7 inch tablet. The main reason I buy a tablet is for screen real estate, so the 9.7 was a no brainer.

I love my 9.7. I had a Tab S 10.5 and this is is perfect. Great size, performance is amazing. Much better than original tab S. BTW, both of my tabs are the Verizon versions

Completely unrelated to the current topic, but I wanted to let you know because I had a similar note 8 issue after the kitkat update. What I did was open the back panel using a guitar pick, and then simply disconnect and reconnect the battery. The note 8 has worked fantastically every since, getting the full 8-10hr battery from it.
Edit: I also have the 9.7. I think the format being similar to the ipad air and the 4:3 screen makes it fantastic for reading research papers which is what I do a lot. Web browsing also feels like its a couple notches better because on the phones its either too narrow for reading content in portrait or the menu and url bars are too invasive in landscape. Of course you get big borders when viewing most video content. But if you are like me and watch movies in the dark, say in bed, the borders aren't visible because of the true blacks on the display.
Thanks for your hint on the battery.
I've actually ordered a new battery and will see how it works.
I've ordered the Dot Pen and I hope it works. I really miss the S Pen
