the Tab Pro 12.2 with the idea of using it as a second screen at the office, as the 8-inch Tab 3 I had was a bit too small for my office needs. I quickly discovered that the Tab Pro is a little workhorse all on its own, and I'm using it a surprising amount of the time in place of my office PC. I did find the Hancom Office app, which is pre-loaded on the Tab 12.2, to be severely lacking in function and usability. I switched over to the Kingsoft app and haven't looked back. That made a huge difference in the ability to productively edit more Be aware, however, that there are only a limited number of mutli-window-capable apps right now. If you want to view two web pages in Multi-window simultaneously, you'll need to open two different browsers. Need to print out what you're working on? That also works very nicely (provided you have a wifi printer that you can connect to.) You'll need one of the apps at the Play store to do it, but it worked flawlessly for me. The charge on this is pretty decent - it lasts all day without having to plug into a charger, and that's with the screen on a good portion of the time. This battery has a pretty big capacity, but the downside is that the time to charge a nearly-dead battery might be longer than you expect (I believe around 6 hours at minimum). My 2 year old laptop was topping out at around 2.5 hours of run time, even with a fairly new battery, so this is a huge plus for me. What I love about this tablet is that I get everything that's awesome about Android combined with the productivity tools of a PC, on a tablet that i don't have to squint over. While my office PC is stalling while it updates windows, download the latest antivirus updates, or whatever else it wants to do during bootup, thanks to the Tab, by the time the PC is ready to go, I've already checked and responded to email, critiqued documents sent by colleagues, and caught up on the latest news in my field. I agree, it's not the most portable Tab out there - I'd highly recommend taking a look at the 8 inch if you need a tab to constantly carry around with you - but for what it is, it's a thing of beauty. ADDENDUM: Five stars for the ease of contacting Samsung's tech support (24 hours by chat? nice!). One star for the ability to redeem their Samsung Perks.

This tablet is actually my boyfriends tablet. He was lucky enough to get it using points he got from work. So, being what was essentially a free tablet, we have no complaints about it. I'm not really an electronics person and I honestly don't really know anything about electronics or differences between different tablet brands, models, etc. That being said, I think the tablet works well. The screen is very clear and it has a great picture. It's fast and everything loads quickly and works well on it. It's also a perfect size. It is super portable, I can bring it to work with me, on road trips, or anywhere really. Yet, it's still big enough to do everything I want on it without straining my eyes etc (like on a smart phone).
