    It's packing some pretty impressive performance with it's snapdragon 855 processor, and it can definitely compete with the 2018 iPad Pro.

But the rest of Apple's product line are becoming passe, easily matched or later surpassed by their competitors in functionality, value for money, and design. Build quality is also around the same, but can't say the same for PC vs Mac

      I just use both, I have an S6 and just got the new iPad Pro 12.9” 2020 for the music creation apps. Though really, I prefer using the S6 as it’s a lot more powerful. Not necessarily the CPU but the OS, as I can run scripting languages like PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby, MySQL, Apache, Che, etc. Which means I can use my S6 to program on and it’s good, really good. Utilizing Apache Che and CodeEnvy, I can create practically any application under the sun. Add in the fact that you can connect a 4K monitor, mouse, 3D Printer, and you have an actual computer.

    I love that everyone I see using that keyboard is attempting to type on it two handed. When I found out this was coming out I went and checked the keyboard on the Tab S4 and it only had about an inch on the span between my thumb and pinky finger side to side.
    So why would I use both hands when clearly that keyboard is intended for those of us who want to get more done with less energy wasted. First thing I am going to do when my keyboard arrives this week is reprogram myself to master that keyboard with one hand. I think being to type one handed well laying on my massage table could be rather handy personally.

Also in my opinion a “pro” tablet should come with a system on a chip that’s more powerful than what you’d see on a flagship smartphone.

    I'm about to review the Tab S6, and already did a little walkthrough. What I can say is, the Tab S6 has a lot more storage than the iPad Pro, comes with the s-pen. The Galaxy Tab S6 is far more customizable than the iPad. Honestly most apps work for Android just fine. And while the iPad has slightly more optimized apps, the Samsung has two operating systems in one package. Having Android and Samsung DeX is huge. Also, Your average user won't notice the difference between a fully optimized tablet app and a stretched phone app. When your device is this good, it isn't a significant difference. With that being said, you may notice in certain apps some minor things that should be fixed. When I open the ebay app in landscape mode, when I go into messages, it instantly switches to portrait because it doesn't support landscape mode. So for me I just open ebay in my web browser. When I am using DeX for multitasking, it is not a big deal to pull up ebay in a browser.
    In my opinion, this stacks up pretty closely with the iPad Pro. The fingerprint sensor does need some improvement, but I expect that in a software update.

    I’m not very demanding when it comes to tablets, the only issue is that I tend to keep tablets foe a very long time (5 to 6 years), and the shorter android platform support is the the only negative for this tablet, not the tablet or the actual software itself. Just the limited support period. And that is mostly where iPad value comes in for me, it’s iOS freaking long support. I don’t care about conspiracy theorists on this matter.

    If they release a Tab S7 in a 12 inch version with the same style keyboard only backlit, I think it could really be amazing. Nest year’s Snapdragon just might be powerful enough to compete with the iPad Pro. Also, Chrome needs an always desktop mode for android, that was one of the reasons I returned one for the iPad Pro 11 inch. I’m not ready to give up on the Tab line though, looking forward to next year.

      I'm using it to replace my school books and folders. The big screen is pretty important because sometimes I need to look at two documents at the same time in split screen.
      Entertainment apps are games :p The iOS app store really doesn't have much, many of the better games (MHFU, Bioshock) have been deleted for no reason at all, and it's pretty much incompatible with emulators for older games.
      I can't complain about productivity, for note taking, drawing, music recording and editing (cubase, bias fx) it blows Android out of the water. But apples software restrictions just take away a lot of it's potential.

    I just got a tab S6 4 days ago and Holly crap this tablet is wicked awesome. I have an 11 max pro cellphone and a 15inch Mac book pro with touch bar. I love my apple products, but this S6 tablet is amazing. I really wanted to switch it up and it did not disappoint. I already have a MacBook pro and I did not want to spend a couple thousand dollars (Canadian pricing) on an iPad pro, Apple pencil and a magic keyboard. Would just be too much when I already have a MacBook pro. I really wanted a tablet for Amazon prime, Netflix, social media, eReader, some games, and with a really nice display. I'm honestly over the moon with this tablet guys. Its so thin, and has the same premium brushed aluminum finish like apple products do, and man oh man can you tell. And the display! This display is no joke. They knocked it out of the park with this display. I would give this tablet 12/10 if I could. I love it!

    If you're trying to decide between the two, buy both (one at a time if you cant afford both) and take them home for a few days then return them. I'm still on the fence between the two that I have at home. Returning one this weekend

    Absolutely agree about software. Regardless of what android tab it is it just lacks the support of great apps. They are good for browsing or simple tasks but if you want to do much word processing or spreadsheets or serious office work then you are met with little choice of apps, document compatibility problems, and an OS that doesn't offer the same file handling features of windows. Its a shame they don't improve it more. Improving the hardware with newer models is pointless without software

    What sold me on this over the iPad Pro (aside from the price) Is the HDR AMOLED screen, it's stunning, I'm surprised Apple hasn't got on board considering their screens was a selling point at one time. But this is a BIG one: The SPen does NOT need to be charged. As much as I like Apples iPencil, there are times at work when I have to be constantly writing on a screen for hours at a time without a chance to recharge, if the iPencil dies on me, Im screwed. Also, SPens are way cheaper to replace, and work across devices like the Note Phones.

    What are the areas where iPad pro 11 could be better? Ofcorse it depends on what the os you prefer the most. But what really ipad can do better? Is it like more powerful cpu, more professional apps, better gaming quality? Are those things worth trying iPad if never loved ios? Samsung has defenetly a better screen, more like pc interface including dex mode, ability to download files and more functions overall.

    • @kovuBee
      @kovuBee 4 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      Yes, all 3 of those things except for replace "more professional apps" with "better optimized apps." The iPad screen has a higher refresh rate so if you're into gaming, the refresh rate and powerful cpu could turn you to the iPad. Also, if you're into drawing which apparently is a big thing on tablets for some people, iPad is better bc of better drawing apps. Same thing with video editing. Other than that, you will be fine with the Tab s6. I would say the Tab s6 is probably better for productivity bc of Samsung Dex, the keyboard, multiple pen tips and features, popup window, lighter weight - easier to carry around. And it can definitely do games and some drawing if you want, it's just that those experiences will be overall better with iPad

    I kind of wish there was more time put into specific features as the whole thing felt a bit rushed. The standout, main feature of the Tab S6 is the expanded Dex support, not requiring a separate display and instead letting you use a track pad. It was barely a footnote here.
    Was it something you used? Can the whole thing sit on your lap nicely for use with the keyboard and track pad? Could it support a good workflow and be a viable alternative to a Surface?
    Using it as a normal tablet is great and all but Dex requiring no additional display turns it from a nice addition to a function of the device.
