Fitur unggulan Foto: Samsung A48w8Pw. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 32GB, the world's most powerful Android slate, is a perfect example of the "pro tablet" dilemma. Much like Apple's iPad Pro, this is a tablet that's priced like a laptop, but its mobile operating system holds it back when it comes to productivity. Its saving grace is the S Pen, making the Tab S3 brilliant for sketching and note-taking—but that may not be worth $ We've been down this road before. Android- and iOS-powered tablets make terrific media consumption gadgets, and their respective styli let them dip into productivity. Apps that look and feel like Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Office, and other high-end creator titles appear on the Apple and Google Play app stores. But they lack the full functionality you get from Windows. That's fine when you're paying less than you would for a similar Windows tablet, but once you get into the $600-$800 range, you don't want to have to make compromises. Physical Design The Galaxy Tab S3 is a big, silvery slab with a glass back. At by by inches HWD and ounces, it's slightly thinner and lighter than the iPad Pro by by inches, ounces. Similar Products That glass back makes me nervous. It's pretty enough, but I don't see the point, other than making the tablet more breakable. After all, the Galaxy Tab S2 has a nice matte back, and the iPad line does just fine with metal. The glass here is Gorilla Glass 4, and it's not slippery, which is well and good, but it really feels like a potential point of failure. The front and rear cameras are both positioned to be used in portrait mode. On the bottom, there's a USB-C charging and syncing port that supports Qualcomm Quickcharge and a headphone jack. The 2,048-by-1,536, screen appears identical to the one on the Galaxy Tab S2. It has the perfect blacks and brilliant colors that only AMOLED can produce, and makes iPads feel a little washed out. Samsung says it supports HDR, but right now the only examples of HDR you can find are a few streaming videos on Amazon; there just isn't enough content for this to be a meaningful feature yet. Performance The Tab S3 runs Android Nougat on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor with 4GB of RAM. That's far more powerful, processor-wise, than the chip in the Galaxy Tab S2 a Samsung Exynos, and you can see the difference primarily in gaming frame rates On the GFXBench Manhattan test, the new tablet gets 33 fps where the old one got 7. Better graphics and processor performance also contribute to the butter-smooth feeling of using the S Pen in drawing and note-taking applications. Faster processor performance isn't really perceivable in other uses, such as the browser or office apps. This is, obviously, not stock Android—is it ever?—but Samsung has really dialed back the bloatware. The redundant web browser and music player are gone, in favor of Google's options. Samsung's proprietary dual-window multitasking still has a few useful features added in Quick Connect lets you fling content to TVs and set-top boxes that support it, and you can download a free Kids Mode for parental controls. See How We Test Tablets Samsung Flow lets you share content and show notifications from a Samsung phone on the tablet or the Samsung Galaxy TabPro S PC. But as very few people have a TabPro S, it ends up being much less useful than Apple's Continuity, as it's unlikely to work on your desktop. The Tab S3 we tested is a Wi-Fi-only model, although carriers will sell an LTE version in the future. Wi-Fi performance was absolutely spectacular in testing, especially on the 5GHz band, where I got faster uplink than on the Galaxy Tab S2. The tablet supports dual-band The tablet only comes in one memory size, 32GB, of which is free. You can add a microSD card to a slot on the side to provide up to 256GB more storage, but you can't use Google's Adoptable Storage to merge that with internal storage. Battery life is excellent on the 6,000mAh cell We got 9 hours, 9 minutes on our video streaming test, which outpaced the five and a half hours we saw with the iPad Pro. And that was at full screen brightness, which is very, very bright; you're more likely to use the tablet at half brightness, where it would surely outlast its promised 12 hours. S Pen and Keyboard You're here for the S Pen. While you can get a great media consumption tablet for $200 less than the Tab S3, Samsung's Wacom-powered plastic pen sets this slate apart from both competitors and its predecessor. The included S Pen is a flattened oval with a tip and an action button on the side. Because it's flattened, it doesn't roll away. Serious pen users, though, should spring for the Staedtler S Pencil, which looks and feels just like a classic European pencil. Unfortunately, we don't have a date or price for that accessory yet. I found this to be the most accurate iteration of the S Pen ever In OneNote, Evernote, and Autodesk Sketchbook, it didn't drop any lines or dots tapped on the screen. It's definitely pressure-sensitive, with pressure showing up in a wide range of art apps, but it isn't tilt-sensitive. For taking notes, it's superior to the Apple Pencil $ at AmazonOpens in a new window because it's lighter and less fatiguing. It's also cheaper to replace, at $79 vs. $99, and has no battery, so it doesn't need to be charged. Irritatingly, there's nowhere to stash the S Pen unless you get the $129 keyboard case pictured here, which has a loop on the side that the pen tucks into. The loop does not fit the S Pencil, which slides out of it. For the record, Apple also doesn't offer a place to put your Apple Pencil, but Samsung didn't need to repeat that mistake. The keyboard case connects via magnet and has clicky keys. It's a four-row keyboard with dedicated number and arrow keys, which is great, but the keys are just a bit too small at just about a half-inch wide each, as compared with around five-eighths of an inch on a full laptop or desktop keyboard for long typing sessions. Audio and Video Samsung, like Apple, went for quad speakers here. The speakers can tell which rotation you're in; the top ones play "near field" sound and the bottom ones "far field," to give you a sense of space. They're 6db louder than the Galaxy Tab S2's speakers, but I still found them to be noticeably tinny rather than rich. Also, if you're holding the tablet in landscape mode, you're probably blocking two of the speakers with your hands, a problem that most tablets including Apple's have. The Tab S3 has a 13-megapixel main camera and a 5-megapixel front camera. The main camera records 1080p and 4K video in any lighting conditions. The front camera also does well with 1080p and 4K video, so video chatting is not a problem. Still pictures are another story We weren't impressed with either camera. Photos taken with the main camera often looked like they had a haze or veil over them, prompting us to wipe the lens, which didn't help. The front-facing camera showed heavy artifacting when we looked at photos pixel for pixel. Comparisons and Conclusions No other Android tablet has the Galaxy Tab S3's specs. But no other Android tablet except for the occasional Sony slate has the Galaxy Tab S3's price. At $ or $ with the keyboard, the Tab S3 competes with not only the iPad Pro, but with Windows detachables like the Lenovo Miix 510 and the Acer Switch Alpha 12, and that's where it runs into trouble. The Tab S3 makes a great media consumption, sketching, and note-taking device. For pure media consumption, though, you might as well go for the Asus Zenpad 3S 10 or the new iPad and save yourself $200 or more. For true productivity, meanwhile, Android still feels weak and crippled compared with the full Windows versions of apps like Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Office, and even web browsers that include Flash and Java. The iPad Pro faces the same dilemma. So, I'll repeat You're here for the S Pen or even better, the S Pencil. The Galaxy Tab S3 is ready to capture your ideas, bubbling over in script or image. For media consumption, go with a less expensive pick. For true productivity, get Windows. Pros Responsive S Pen. Gorgeous AMOLED screen. Very good battery life. Excellent Wi-Fi performance. View More Cons Expensive. Android doesn't match Windows on productivity. Camera isn't great. The Bottom Line The Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 is the most powerful Android tablet available, but it's very pricey for the functionality you get. Like What You're Reading?

If I had to pick one tablet to watch video on for the rest of my life, I would pick the Samsung Galaxy Tab Good The Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 is an elegantly designed tablet that comes with a capable stylus. It has a stunning AMOLED screen, fingerprint sensor for extra security and satisfyingly loud quad speakers. It's also the first HDR-ready tablet. The Bad Despite the hype, HDR content is not available on the tablet yet. Large games take time to load. The keyboard add-on is an expensive extra. The Bottom Line Samsung packs buzz-worthy features like S Pen and HDR support into its new premium Galaxy Tab S3, but without a keyboard packed in, it's still more about content consumption than creation. It's a stylish, all-glass tablet with an impressively crisp and vibrant screen and four speakers, making it an excellent portable movie theater. It's also the first HDR-ready tablet, although there are a few asterisks to that bullet point. HDR stands for high dynamic range, which means a spectacular, noticeable difference in contrast and color range in comparison to regular HD. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 is a sexy HDR tablet with stylus See all photos That type of high-quality video content isn't even close to becoming as commonplace as HD content is today, yet Samsung is still flexing this future-forward feature as an advantage over high-end tablets such as the Apple iPad Pro the Microsoft Surface Pro 4 and the Google Pixel C. Included in the $600 base price is the revamped Samsung S-Pen stylus, a real treat for those who still relish good old-fashioned note-taking. The addition of the S-Pen adds a dash of productivity and creativity to a device that's otherwise best used for leisurely activities. Samsung hasn't announced official UK and Australian pricing and availability, but that base price directly converts to £480 and AU$790. Enlarge Image Using the S Pen with coloring apps is almost therapeutic. Josh Miller/CNET For a premium-priced Android tablet, there are a few missteps. Aside from the dearth of available and compatible HDR content, gaming performance isn't as snappy as it should be for a high-end tablet. The sold-separately keyboard case $130; converts to £105 or AU$170 is an underwhelming performer. Though it costs the same amount as the Apple iPad Pro and Google Pixel C, it's not at the front of the pack in performance. But if a sharp screen, great audio and an excellent stylus is on your must-have features list, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 is a top choice for indulging in binge-watching style, wherever you go. Enlarge Image This is a tablet worth binge-watching with. Josh Miller/CNETCutting-edge video quality The Galaxy Tab S3 shines best when watching video. HD content looks razor sharp, colorful and bright. The excellent picture quality is complemented by four speakers, featuring AKG by Harman Kardon's expert tuning. With one speaker at each corner, they sound satisfyingly loud and clear, though it's best to avoid cranking it to max volume as the audio tends to sound tinny when pushed to its limit. According to Samsung, the tablet features positional audio, which rotates what comes through the four speakers as you turn the tablet. It's supposed to push the dialogue and vocals to the top two speakers, no matter whether you're holding it in portrait or landscape mode. But I didn't notice a difference in audio between one orientation and the other. Enlarge Image Four speakers, one on each corner. Josh Miller/CNET The Galaxy Tab S3 proudly claims the title of the first and as of now, only HDR-ready tablet. This means it's capable of playing HDR content, which is like HD content but on steroids. HDR video has increased range of color and enhanced contrast between highlights and shadows, resulting in sensationally vivid picture Super AMOLED2,048x1,536-pixel resolution Those with 4K TVs might be more familiar with HDR, because that's currently the only way to watch it. At the time of review, there's no Samsung native HDR content or easily accessible way to view HDR content on tablets . According to Netflix, it doesn't have any plans to support HDR on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S3. Amazon and FandangoNow both plan on supporting the feature, simply stating that HDR content will be available "soon." When reached for comment, VUDU did not clarify whether or not it would make its UHD content available for the tablet. No HDR content means settling for HD - for now. Josh Miller/CNET What's the point of buying an HDR-ready tablet if there are no HDR movies or TV shows to watch on it? Great question! Buying this tablet for HDR content is like showing up to the hottest new restaurant in town before it's even been furnished. While it's an impressive future-forward feature, it's too new for you to actually take advantage of and enjoy. But even without a catalog of HDR content, you're still getting one of the best visual experiences on any screen, because this is an AMOLED display, which is a close cousin of the OLED displays found in the very best TVs , and starting to turn up in some phones and laptops . The tablet's design is similar to the Galaxy S7 phone. Josh Miller/CNET Sexy like an S7 According to people I showed the Galaxy Tab S3 to, it looks like an iPhone . To me, however, it's more like the Samsung Galaxy S7 . No matter which phone you think it looks like, one thing is for sure It's one good-lookin' and connectionsFast-charging USB-CFingerprint sensor on home buttonHeadphone jack Most tablets are made of plastic or aluminum. The Galaxy Tab S3 is made of glass just like the S7 and comes in silver or black. The tablet's unique, all-glass design is also comfortable thanks to its smooth, rounded aluminum edges. It has one USB-C port that supports fast charging. Josh Miller/CNET The review unit I had was silver and smudges weren't visible on its back panel, but I've also seen the black version of the Tab S3 and I definitely can't say the same thing about that model - it's a fingerprint and improved S Pen Similar to the Microsoft Surface Pro 4, the Galaxy Tab S3 comes bundled with a stylus - and a few stylus tip replacements for good measure. The revamped S Pen, previously exclusive to Samsung's Note series, has one button and is short and oblong in shape to prevent it from rolling off a desk. It's comfy to grip and writes like a silky smooth ballpoint pen. The fact that it never has be to synced or charged is the icing on the cake. The S Pen is included in the base price. Josh Miller/CNET There's some software integration that makes the Galaxy Tab S3 stylus-friendly. When the screen's unlocked, pressing the S Pen's button and tapping the screen launches a customizable carousel that you can load with your favorite apps. Notes can also be easily jotted down, even when the tablet is locked. When the screen is in sleep mode, tapping it with the stylus while pressing the S Pen's button as you would to launch the carousel opens a simplified black and white note-taking screen, almost like a digital chalkboard. The simple software integration met all of my needs. Josh Miller/CNET Honestly, I wasn't expecting to like the S Pen as much as I did. I've never been a big stylus fan but found myself actively enjoying the feeling of writing with the S Pen. The smooth movement of the rubber tip on the glass felt oddly therapeutic for coloring apps. Writing with it flowed like ink on paper. Apple 's iPad Pro Pencil and the stylus included with Microsoft's Surface products are also excellent in their own ways, but offer different features and have a different feel. There's a bit of a learning curve when it comes to applying the right amount of pressure, but otherwise it's easy to get the hang of. Best of all, the basic software integration satisfied all of my note-taking needs. While I was excited to try the Galaxy S3 for its high-end screen, it's the stylus that kept me coming back for more. The digital notepad I never knew I wanted. Josh Miller/CNETKeyboard? You can keep it One of the most disappointing things about the Galaxy Tab S3 is its unremarkable Pogo keyboard case. It's similar to the iPad Pro connecting magnetically to its edge without Bluetooth . It feels cramped to type on, doesn't automatically shut off the screen when closed and can be unresponsive despite being connected properly. Plus the keys aren't backlit and it only offers one viewing angle, so it can't be adjusted to your liking if, for example, you're using it on your lap. Its only redeeming quality is that it offers a place to store the S-Pen stylus. I suggest a hard pass on the Galaxy Tab S3's keyboard. Josh Miller/CNET To add insult to injury, the keyboard caused performance issues. After disconnecting the tablet from it, the on-screen keyboard would occasionally fail to appear. I was still able to tap the area where the on-screen keyboard would be and letters would appear in text fields, but the on-screen keyboard would remain invisible. I had to restart the tablet to get it back to normal. Another irritating problem was how disconnecting the tablet from the keyboard would cause it to go to sleep. I often casually transition between tablet and laptop mode and vice versa in one sitting. When switching from laptop mode to tablet, I would have to annoyingly re-enter my pin or scan my fingerprint just to continue what I was doing. It magnetically connects and doesn't require Bluetooth. Josh Miller/CNET The keyboard is sold separately and it's not a deal breaker, unless you really want a keyboard with your tablet. In that case, keep your options open. But to be a "laptop replacement" a tablet really does need a keyboard. We may fare better with the upcoming Galaxy Book, a Windows-based sister product that comes with its own, different, keyboard cover. At least it gives you a place to store the stylus. Josh Miller/CNETBetter than most, but not the best When it came to note-taking, surfing the web, checking email, streaming HD video and playing simple mobile games such as Pocket Mortys and Leo's Fortune, the tablet performed smoothly. Larger, more complex games such as 3 Near Orbit and Hearthstone were a bit slow to launch, but graphics looked spectacular and smooth during gameplay. In comparison to the Google Pixel C and Apple iPad Pro it falls behind the pack in 3DMark benchmarks. While games look great on its beautiful screen, its performance isn't as fast and snappy as the competition' 4 Microsoft Surface Pro 4 6787Apple iPad Pro 4818Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 3883Google Pixel C 2965 Note Longer bars indicate better performance 3DMark Ice Storm Unlimited Microsoft Surface Pro 4 66061Google Pixel C 40922Apple iPad Pro 34794Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 22786 Note Longer bars indicate better performance Google Octane Microsoft Surface Pro 4 27221Apple iPad Pro 21420Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 8612Google Pixel C 8385 Note Longer bars indicate better performance We're still in the midst of testing the Samsung Galaxy Tab S3's battery, but so far it looks good - really good. After one test, looping a local 720p file in airplane mode, the tablet lasted hours. Anecdotally, while streaming video it lasted about 7-8 hours. Check back when we're done testing for the final results. My time with the tablet was marred by some unexpected bugginess. A few games initially crashed upon launch Suicide Squad Special Ops, Hearthstone and Asphalt 8 and I had to uninstall and reinstall 3DMark because it kept crashing when attempting to run the Ice Storm Unlimited benchmark test. Due to its performance, it's better for content consumption, not creation. Josh Miller/CNET Some of the issues can be fixed with future over-the-air updates, but if I, personally, just spent $600 on a new tablet, I damn sure wouldn't want to deal with this type of mess. Tack on the previously mentioned keyboard issues and the Samsung feels too expensive for what you're getting. For the same price, the iPad Pro and Pixel C may not include a stellar stylus, but at least their performance lives up to the expectations of a high-end tablet. And, the new inch iPad a successor to the iPad Air 2 , captures a lot of the high-end feel for hundreds less, although the display and camera aren't as good, and there's no stylus support. Come for the stunning HDR screen, stay for the satisfying stylus. Josh Miller/CNETA premium and posh portable TV The fashionable and future-forward Galaxy Tab S3 provides an excellent, unparalleled experience for watching your favorite TV shows and movies on the go, thanks to its OLED screen and excellent quad speakers. With its S-Pen stylus in tow, it can also work as a high-end digital notepad. The much-touted HDR video support is little more than a marketing bullet point for now, but holds future promise. For the same price, you may choose to invest in a different tablet with more productivity potential. The iPad Pro and Pixel C both offer better keyboard accessories and snappier gaming performance. Not everyone wants or needs a tablet for typing or gaming, though. If you want a great tablet primarily for watching video, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 is my new favorite. VerdictThe Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 is the best Android tablet yet, and it’s built to last with 2-in-1 S Pen and keyboard capabilities, a beautiful HDR-ready screen and four bumping stereo iPad Pro has met its match when it comes to value. Samsung matches all of Apple’s major hardware features, and adds the S Pen stylus. You’ll have to pay extra for the keyboard case, but it’s at least cheaper than Apple’s keyboard attachment, and it wraps around the entire tablet. The microSD card slot puts Samsung over the isn’t everything, though. It’s not a guaranteed universal recommendation; no Android tablet is at this price point. The iPad still has better software and large-scale app support. And while Android Oreo and TouchWiz have closed the gap, multitasking on a tablet isn't enough for productivity pros who can opt for a slightly thicker laptop at around the same the best Android tablet today, but just be aware that its solid entertainment value leans more heavily on the tablet side of its 2-in-1 classification, at the expense of your productivity this for?You want the best tablet, and demand only Android.

A new top-end Android tablet is a rare occurrence these days, and after using Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S3, I can sort of see why. This iPad Pro-chasing tablet is good-looking, fast and has a gorgeous screen, but I can’t fully recommend it because the Android user experience on a tablet still isn’t quite up to scratch. Samsung has tried its best, but the future for high-end Android tablets isn’t looking too rosy. Who knows, maybe the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 will fix the S3’s issues, but for now this is far from the best tablet experience around. Related Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 vs Tab S3 Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 – Design The Galaxy Tab S3 is a mixture of the very best and the very worst of Samsung’s industrial design. It’s thinner than an iPhone 7, with a flat back and slightly curved sides that make it a pleasure to hold. Weighing in at just 429g it’s also noticeably lighter than the latest iteration of the regular iPad. Related Best Android tablets The Tab S3 is about the same size as an iPad Pro but the all-black colour is a hue I’ve been wishing Apple would introduce for its tablets since the matte-black iPhone 7 arrived. There are clicky volume and sleep buttons on the side, while the headphone jack and USB-C port sit slightly off-centre on the bottom. Like the iPad Pro, four speakers are dotted around the tablet and they have some software trickery that angles the sound depending on how you’re holding the device. There’s also a very fast fingerprint scanner below the screen, flanked by two capacitive back’ and overview’ buttons. It’s a stunning piece of kit, until you start using it. The glass back, for me, is a wrong step for a tablet. After using the Tab S3 for a few minutes the behind becomes completely covered in oily fingerprints. I also expect tablets to be much more durable than a phone, mainly because they spend a lot of time being bunged inside a bag or passed around a group of people. An iPad can comfortably live inside a full rucksack without getting damaged, but I’m already starting to see tiny marks appearing on the Galaxy Tab S3. I understand a glossy, glass back might be a flashier design choice, but I’d prefer a matte metal back. Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 – Display and speakers Samsung has knocked it out of the park with the display on the Galaxy Tab S3. The screen is so good that it sits in the same league and in some ways surpasses the iPad Pro True Tone panel, which is one of the best I’ve ever seen on a tablet. The thing that really gives it the edge over Apple’s tab is the screen tech used. While Apple uses IPS LCD panels, Samsung uses AMOLED, which allows for much richer colours, deeper blacks and a more immersive screen for bingeing on media. The tablet packs the same 2048 x 1536 resolution as the Tab S2, but it’s now HDR-enabled when you’re watching supported content either through Netflix or Amazon Prime. HDR high dynamic range gives much greater peak brightness, with blacks appearing deeper and more natural as a result. Related What is HDR? The demo HDR footage I’ve seen looks tremendous. It’s a shame neither Netflix or Amazon has updated their mobile apps to support it yet, and there’s no word on when that might happen, which means for now the HDR support feels a little superfluous. The screen’s much more colourful and saturated than the iPad Pro display, which can look a tad dull when they’re both side by side, but this is where the S3’s lead ends. The Tab S3’s screen doesn’t perform as well in bright light due to its overly reflective coating, which I’ve found is particularly annoying on trains. It also lacks any of the True Tone tech found in the iPad Pro, which alters the colour temperature depending on your environment and makes reading in the dark easier on the eyes. Luckily, the media experience is made even better thanks to the four speakers. There are two on the bottom and two on the top, and they’re tuned by the audio gurus at AKG. They’re decent speakers, with plenty of volume and the positioning means noise will come out in all directions, but they do have a tendency to feel like the sound is far away from you and being pushed the wrong way. This might have something to do with the software that’s supposed to alter the sound depending on which orientation you’re holding it in. Even with this issue, they’re much better than the majority of tablet speakers. Related Best Android Tablets How we test tablets We test every tablet we review thoroughly.

If you’re looking for a high-end device to rival the iPad Pro running Google’s software then this is it. However, it’s not without downsides. The price will be too high for many and doesn’t include the Keyboard Cover, the software isn’t the best for a tablet and that glass back isn’t the best choice for multiple reasons. The tablet market may have petered out somewhat but Samsung hasn’t give up on it, even if it seems the likes of Sony, HTC and Google have. This latest effort is an iPad Pro rival running Android Nougat with included S Pen. Here’s our Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 review. While we waited for the Galaxy S8 launch, Samsung has some new tablets to keep us entertained. We finally have the Tab S3 alongside two new Galaxy Books running Windows 10 – these seem to be a follow up to the Galaxy TabPro S but with a different naming system. Galaxy Tab S3 Price and where to buy The Galaxy Tab S3 is now available in the UK following its 31 March release date. If you were hoping for a price of around £399 then we have bad news. The Galaxy Tab S3 is even more expensive than the the iPad Pro at £599. You can buy it from Samsung, John Lewis. In the US it’s the same amount but in dollars, $599. Currys now has a lower price of £529. That’s a heft price for a tablet, although it’s worth pointing out that Samsung includes the new S Pen stylus in the box. If you want the 4G LTE model it will set you back £669. While that helps ease the pain of the price, not all potential buys will want the stylus so it’s a shame not to have an option to buy the tablet alone or bundled with the keyboard as an alternative. Also see Best tablets 2018. Galaxy Tab S3 Design and build The Korean tech giant has become a master of design and build with its Galaxy products and others, forming a distinct style emerging since the Galaxy S6. This design language has now made its way across a number of products and the Galaxy Tab S3 is no exception. For starters it’s astonishingly thin at just 6mm. Although this is actually a tiny bit thicker than the Tab S2 and it’s also heavier at 429g it’s still impressive better than the iPad Pro on both counts still and can be, we think, attributed to some of the innovations found in the device. It feels more premium than its predecessor but it does look a little odd with the USB port off-centre. This is made slightly better by the headphone port being the other side of the home button. Although it feels premium because of the sleek combination of glass and metal. The back being glass makes the Tab S3 a slippery customer so you can’t put it down on something that isn’t flat without fear of it sliding off. You’ll probably keep it in a cover most of the time, though, as the tablet has Pogo metal contacts below to easily connect to the keyboard case. You can get the official Book Cover for £32 from Amazon while the Keyboard Cover is available for £119. It’s not waterproof like the Galaxy S7 which is a shame so you’ll have to look to Sony for that on a tablet not that the firm has anything new so far this year on that front. As you’d expect the Galaxy Tab S3 has USB-C and also four speakers much like the iPad Pro. The tablet has a home button once again, as per the launch event invitation hint, and this contains a fingerprint scanner. The usual navigation buttons sit either side. It comes in two colours – black and silver – and both are attractive. However, the silver option hides fingerprints slightly better than the black, just like with a car. Galaxy Tab S3 Specs and features New tablets, especially high-end devices, are a rare thing these days. Apple is one of the only companies regularly releasing new models. However, the iPad Pro has some new competition from the specced up Tab S3. Screen Moving on from a similar design, the Galaxy Tab S3 cements itself as an iPad Pro rival with its screen that has a 43 aspect ratio. It’s still got a 2048×1536 resolution and Super AMOLED display technology but now supports high dynamic range HDR. We’re really impressed with the superbly detailed screen which has bags of colour and brightness. The HDR support means better colours and contrast, in theory, but it’s worth pointing out that only selected titles on Amazon Prime Video and Netflix offer this and at the time of writing, the respective mobile apps don’t support HDR. While the screen is impressive in specs, it’s let down a little because the tablet is a little too reflective to be great in all also worth noting that there’s no equivalent to the iPad Pro’s True Tone display which alters colour temperature for a more comfortable experience. All you can do is optionally switch on the blue light filter. Processor and performance Core specs start off with the decent with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor. Even though we’d like to see the newer 835 model, the quad-core chip dual Kryo and dual GHz Kryo is still up to the job. You can see the benchmark results below, compared to the iPad Pro. Although the numbers aren’t as impressive as Apple’s rival, the performance of the Galaxy Tab S3 is still impressively smooth. It’s perfectly capable of running intensive apps and offer the ability to use two side-by-side with Multi-Window. Storage and connectivity When it comes to memory and storage, the Tab S3 has a combination of 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. You can always add up to 256GB more if needed via the Micro-SD card slot. It’s also got features likes Bluetooth GPS, 11ac dual-band Wi-Fi with 2×2 MIMO and optional LTE Cat 6. There’s no features such as NFC or an infrared sensor here. What there is, once again, is a fingerprint scanner which sits traditionally on the front with capacitive buttons either side for navigation. The sensor is fast and reliable as you would hope and can be used to to unlock the device, verify your Samsung account instead of a password and sign into websites. Cameras Not that cameras are especially important on tablets but the Galaxy Tab S3 comes with a 13Mp rear camera and a 5Mp front camera. Although the rear camera has an LED flash and an f/ aperture, the results from it are nothing special. You could, if you’re happy to shoot with a large tablet, post reasonable quality content on social media but you wouldn’t want to use it for anything more serious. The front camera is about average and will serve as way to video call and the like. However, the placement means holding the tablet naturally means you’re not quite framed right in the picture. Battery life Inside is a 6000mAh battery that’s about twice the size of a typical smartphone. However, that’s a fair chunk smaller than the 9240mAh found on the Google Pixel C. That said, we’re pretty impressed with the battery life on offer here. The Galaxy Tab S3 will almost give you the advertised 12 hours of video playback and holds the charge very well on standby. As mentioned, the tablet charges via the USB-C port and although there’s no wireless charging, the supplied fast charger will get you to 100 percent in around two and a half hours which is pretty good. S Pen Another key feature is the inclusion of a new S Pen. The refined stylus has a smaller tip and improved pressure sensitivity – four times that of the Apple Pencil. This reviewer is no artist but it seems decent, although we did accidentally push the button on the side a few times. The pre-installed app is a sort of social networking app for artists and you can create various things in Notes but there are better apps out there if you look. You also get the usual Air Command menu for doing things like creating note, smart select, screen write, translate, magnify and more. The most annoying thing, like the iPad Pro, is that there’s nowhere to keep the S Pen. It doesn’t attach to, or slide into the tablet – hence why it’s not called a Note’ device. Galaxy Tab S3 Software While the Galaxy Book tablets run on Windows 10, the Galaxy Tab S3 comes with Android Nougat. That’s good but Android still doesn’t translate to tablets as well as iOS. Generally, apps on the platform aren’t optimised for larger screens so can look a bit rubbish on the display here. There’s more subtle things like icons not looking their best, too. Everything is pretty smooth and simple with pre-installed apps from, as usual, Google, Microsoft and Samsung itself. These include Samsung Flow which allows you to wirelessly tether compatible devices to transfer documents and sync messages. It’s easy to do what you want with the software in terms of apps or even a different launcher if you don’t want Briefing next to the homescreen, for example, but you can’t change everything. For example, Multi Window is a handy feature but it doesn’t always run nicely, requiring you to tap on one to bring it to life. That’s especially annoying if it’s a messenger app and you’re not getting new messages through while using the other app. Also see Best new tablets coming in 2018.
