Why can't samsung make a tablet of this quality? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion

This is not a rant thread, this just a discussion. I don't understand why samsung doesn't produce such a high quality tablet like the s7. Glass and aluminium build quality, the new exynos chip, vulkan, big ass battery etc. I would like a tablet to pair with my phone, that would look like it's from the same "collection", but we only have the tab s2 with joke of a battery, mid specs and plastic build quality

I imagine cost would be exorbitant

Typically, manufacturers are gaining a reputation, then the reputation works for them. Also came from Samsung

can but will not. . the market is no to big for it

Because there isn't enough sales volume to justify it. Even Apple can't sustain their iPad line and had to increase the price by $100 with the iPad Pro.

That would be awesome. Straight competitor with the ipad. I would definately buy one. But im sure it would be expensive like others have said.

So what it would cost as much as an ipad, Apple still sells them. Right now the ipad has no competition in terms of a media consumption tablet. I own an air 2 but I would trade it for an android tablet with the same specs of the s7 edge and same build quality.

Tab S2 is pretty good though

I still have my Note 10.1 2014 edition and love it. Battery life is starting to falter as it is over 2 years old now... But other than that it's still kicking ass.

Tab S2 is awesome actually. It's lightweight because of the plastic build and the battery has been awesome with the new optimizing feature. It's just missing fast wireless charging.

Same! I love mine! Especially since it got Lollipop. The build isn't as great: plastic bezel, faux leather back, but I still really like it. And even if you don't put a case on your phone, you should definitely put one with a flip cover on a tablet anyway.

They already did release a great tablet called TabPro S which puts ipad and android tablets to shame.

Except that it doesn't.
Whichever way you cut it, Windows 10 isn't a tablet OS. I have a Surface Pro 3, and before that had a Surface 3, 2, and RT.
Whilst they are all very good machines, I can count on one hand the number of times I used them without a keyboard as a tablet - I'd almost invariably pick up an Android tablet instead.
I can't see the TabPro being any different.

For a tablet with the brilliant quality as S7, the tablet price will be expensive than S7. For a small market with a expensive price, that is not a good strategy.

That's just because you are used to using Windows a certain way. Tab Pro S with Windows 10 is infinitely better than Android, because now it can actually run decent applications and you don't have to worry about it not getting updates. The hardware isn't the best though, and would have wished for something larger and faster (surface pro 4 competitor with amoled screen).

Have to disagree. Most of the touch optimised W10 apps aren't a patch on their iOS or Android equivalents, or simply don't exist.
Yes, you can run "real" apps, but that isn't giving you a tablet experience.
Don't get me wrong, I like Windows 10, but a tablet OS it is not.

I know you can run Android on Windows via apps like Bluestacks, but why bother?
The other thing about using W10 as a tablet OS is generally lousy standby time. I can pick up any of my Android tablets after a few days of non use and there will still be a decent amount of battery left - not iPad levels but good enough.
My Surface Pro 3 (and Surface 3, 2, and RT before) would generally have discharged itself completely long before the Android tablets.

Tell me what to buy?

Hey all
Im looking to venture into the world of tablets but with so many being available its all a little confusing! I like the look of the Nexus 7 for its power and incredibly good price but for me 7 inches is just a bigger phone I want something with the price tag and power (near enough) of a Nexus but with something like a 10 inch screen to make it feel like an actual tablet. Im only 16 with a part time job so i cant go for something like the Asus Infinity even though i would love that
So start shouting out your tablet choices people!
Your choices are quite limited; 10 inchers are usually at least $400.
I would recommend watching slickdeals.net for some reburbished deal if you really need one. In truth, however, the difference between 7 inch and phone is already quite significant and it makes the most sense for your price point (short of a "cheap" brand like archos).
i think go for the ipad if you like a bigger screen than nexus 7 ipad is also have the speed.
I love the size of my nexus7 so far there's not much I don't love about this tablet!I hear they are releasing a 10 inch soon so you could wait for that but I don't know if it will be tegra3 or Qualcomm. Again this tablet rocks! Rooted w/ stock ROM cwm recovery & trinity kernel.

I would recommend the Toshiba Excite 10 inch. It has HDMI out with an SD card slot. That's the tablet I would get if I wanted one.
Another good option is the Asus as you mentioned. You can look up the Samsung Galaxy Note Tablet. It comes with a stylus and I think it has app that directly support it. You can't go wrong with any of these. Just pick the features that you want and get it. I would suggest going to your local electronics store and trying them out to see which one you like as each of them have customized their Android OS with their custom apps and settings. All of the mentioned above have quad cores so you can't go wrong with that.
If you're looking for smaller/cheaper then you can go with the Samsung Galaxy Player 5. Its $200 and its what I use for my "tablet" experience. Its smaller and portable than the above but that may not be what you want. Note that this is a single core so you're sacrificing power and size but you gain portability.

If you are desperate for a larger tablet then you could pick up something like the Galaxy Tab. It's a bit older than the Nexus, but stil pretty decent, especially if you run ICS.
It's on for sale for £279 at carphone warehouse www.carphonewarehouse.com/mobiles/m..._WIFI_16GB/HANDSET?portal=GLSHOP&promo=GLSHOP
Otherwise I'd recommend a Nexus 7.

I think i might wait for the Nexus 10 but the Galaxy note 10.1 is catching my eye although its aimed at artists and creative people ( I cant draw to save my life )
I have the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, and i have been loving it so far! I haven't even needed to root it, i'm still stock and its quick with a beautiful screen! I got the 16GB WiFi version with a 32GB MicroSD b/c i watch TV on it while i'm at work. The battery life is just AMAZING! I don't think i've ever gone lower than 50%! And i watch shows and movies for HOURS! There is some noticeable lag every now and again, but its usually pretty peppy! And it comes stock with ICS, they have even rolled out 2 updates since i bought mine! Thats rare! No word yet on if it will get Jelly Bean, but it doesn't matter to me, i love this tabby! Good luck on your hunt!
A good tablet would be the Toshiba excite 10. It has a nice screen, tegra 3, several ports, and very good speakers. The best part is that it's only $300 at Costco.

[Q] what's ur opinion?

Do u think it is worth to buy the new edition of note 10.1
Or u just satisfied from ur currently one
For me i will buy the new one soon for just the screen resolution i hate the old note 10.1's screen
Not worth it to me.. I'll stay with this one and just get a smaller tablet.. maybe the new nexus 7.. I will be able to get all the newest updates..

I most likely will be getting one. I just hate where they placed the speakers on the new one.

I think I'll hold out for the Note 12.
I like the upgraded screen but unless they come out with some awesome accessories or a killer price especially on a 64gb model there's really not enough to make me want to ditch my Note 8013 for the 2014 with side fire speakers, fake leather back, shinny chrome bezel and a mechanical home button.
.
Something about upgrading a tablet every year doesn't feel right for me for whatever reason. The only thing I really envy that's in the new Note 10.1 is the screen.
- Speaker placement is strange and imho a loss, but better the side than the back.
- Higher res screen is much needed and definitely a win. With the SD800 power consumption specs and low power high res screen and lighter but more powerful battery you should actually gain battery time.
- No Transformer like dock is a shame but there are plenty of keyboards for a tab and most likely a samsung approved dock as well just like the first model
- It may be to early to call NFC yet as the tech bloggers dont always do the best at reporting features but if it does not have it im sad as NFC has potential to solve some annoying bluetooth problems.
- Physical home button and soft back and recent buttons can be looked at as a win as it provides more screen room.
- The new SOC has enough power to run the new higher resolution screen and still give a tremendous boost over the previous version
- The new 2014 model provides close to double the power of the previous version and gives options that we have never seen before. Overall imho the tablet is pure success with a few bad ideas. If this tablet doesn't do it for you...nothing coming this year will.
So yea I think it's more than worthy of an upgrade. All that said though I'm still deciding if I will go note 10.1 2014 or transformer pad tf701. Both are phenomenal on paper, with the note coming in a bit more powerful imho but I'm just so darned attracted to the dock on transformer lol.
What does everyone think about the nexus 10 2? I didn't even know one was coming out until I looked in the nexus forums lol. Price is said to be$299.

And one more thing
I think its hard to get softwares upgrades from the new one as air command and the other stuff
And if the developers developed it and got it from the custom roms we will face alot of errors because the 2014 differ from the old one in hardware
Such as the buttons and i think the s pen also

It's a nice and fair summary. Whatever the the shortcoming(s) of the new one might be, I'm sure the new screen resolution and the increased functionality of the S-Pen will make all that go away after a few days of use. When I first compared a Nexus 10 and a Note 10.1 side by side in a store, my first thought was "why can't we have this gorgeous screen with an S-Pen?". Now, we have it!
I don't know why people compare the two, the note imp is in a class of its own especially for people that that full advantage of the spen

Have 2013 version, want to upgrade 2014.

I love my note 10.1, but I really would love to upgrade to 2014 version, but I would keep the 2014 version for years. That seems like a much better upgrade. I got this in April of last year and very good condition. Kept it in case at all times and have cover and screen protector.Any tips on how to? Trade in, or how much I can sell it for? And where? Thanks.
You sure you want to lose multi-window and gain Phone UI?
Have you tried it out for more than 15 minutes?

If i were you i would wait. i believe there will be other tablets in the near future with A Active stylus coming to market.I so wish for a 10 inch nexus device with a stylus input . The note 10.1 is much more Productive.
Just my opinion.
The 2014 model is very nice and much faster with excellent resolution. Not to mention feather light.
I returned mine however simply because I missed using my 2012 models dock and there isn't one available for the 2014. :crying:
..and yeah, the Pro models are right around the corner. the 12.2 is already on preorder.
Personally, it would be insane to order any Android tablets when Wacom Intel x86 Full Windows Tablets with the battery life and weight identical to Android Tablets are right around the corner.

There are plenty of Windows Tablets that are already a phenomeno deal like the Venue 8 Pro http://www.engadget.com/products/dell/venue/8-pro/
I am waiting for something just like that but with a 10 inch screen, Atom CPU with 4 GB RAM and Wacom.
In regards to your question on the new Note, if you have the 2012 Note 10.1, just go to your local retail store and compare the interface.
Phone UI, for example, the notification drawer pulls down from the top and covers the entire screen
Multi-Window, ie you can no longer have cascading windows like you can in Windows and in Note 10.1 2012

Galaxy S6 or Galaxy Note 5

I am really loving the design language Samsung is using with the new Galaxy S6/ Edge. It looks real premium. My question to you is would you buy the Galaxy S6/ Edge or wait for the Note 5? I should mention i am currently a Note 3 user.
Note 5.....absolutely. ....I'm on note 2. regards

I think the question comes down to screen size and s-pen. If you want a larger screen and/or S-Pen, stick with the Note series. If you prefer a 5" screen and aren't interested in S-Pen features, then the S6 might be the better device.
Tough to say what the Note 5 will bring. If it continues to to have things like a micro SD card or removable battery, that may also factor in as well but nobody knows yet.
Well, like every year the Note 5 will have the better overall specs. Question is whether you want to wait 6 months for it or not?

I'd say go for the S6 if you are on a last gen phone from 2014 (so anything earlier than Note 4). Otherwise I'd suggest waiting for the Note 5. The S6 is shaping up to be pretty darn good, and I can assure you the VR capabilities are going to be great (just like they are on the Note 4).
Besides the lack of sd slot and removable battery id take the note just cause the s6 screen is so tiny lol

S6.
I hate tablets, phablets, and other things generally ending with "ablet" haha.
Depends on what you want? Personally I absolutely adore my Note 4 it's a productivity beast. So no doubt in my mind that the Note 5 will be one too.
If you value:
- s pen functionality (it's like a small mouse)
- top of the top specs
- removable batteries
- expendable storage
And maybe the first 4k display I'd say wait for the Note. Also I hope Samsung's new philosophy doesn't make it to the Note series because a closed down device isn't a productivity one.
If you want a smaller form factor with limited storage space, questionable development support but top specs try the s6 and see if you like it.
Hopefully Samsung doesn't follow suit with the S6 and downgrade the Note 5. I'm still rockin' my Note 2 at the moment, but if the Note 5 downgrades to 1990's technology with no expandable storage, I'll seek a more appropriate brand.
Two different phones targeting two different demographics. Besides which, I don't know how many people "upgrade" their phones twice a year. Go with the consideration of screen size + S-pen usage as others have suggested. The two are not very comparable in my opinion.

It's a serious downgrade in functionality. Samsung for some reason has become blazingly desperate to be just like Apple now. It's too bad that they feel that if they can't beat the competition, then to join them.

Your references to laptops and PC's doesn't make any sense. Those references are removing obsolete storage mediums and replaced with new high capacity ones. And PCs and laptops are fully expandable. A more suitable comparison would be if Nasa were to replace launch rockets with a paper airplane. That's what Samsung has done.

I think I can fix that for you! You almost understand, removing obsolete storage mediums and replaced with new high SPEED ones! There you've got it! In addition to slow, SD cards are a huge security issue, and somewhat incompatible with Android.

SD cards are obsolete for these phones!

The S is marginally better than the pro but you should be abnl to get the pro much cheaper. I would get which ever one you can get the best deal on. My newest toy is a Nexus 9. It has awesome front facing speakers like the 8013. It is somewhat unique in that it has a 4:3 screen ratio like the iPad does. It is worth looking at as well. The advantage to a Nexus tablet is guaranteed updates to the latest version of Android. Samsungs are iffy when it comes to updates. I tend to buy used and got each of the above mentioned tablets for about 200 each on craigslist.
