10" tablet recommendations

I like my Samsung devices and it seems the Tab S 10.5 gets good reviews.

Does anyone have any hands on experiences and notably integration with Samsung phones?

It would be between this and the Sony Experia Z2, which I prefer the design of and it’s water resistance – screen doesn’t look as good though.

Cheers

Oh, please don’t suggest an iPad…

When you say “integration” what do you mean?

Cougar – ha, not that sure really – just anything that they might do/sync together that might be useful.

aracer – I don’t like Apple/iTunes

Purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1″ from Curry’s yesterday, £229 with an extra £20 off using the code IPADTAB20, so £209 all in. Have 3 other SG tabs in the house and all have worked flawlessly so far.We also run 5 samsung phones and once set up they sync, auto backup no problem,HTH. 🙂

Well, theoretically all Android devices should sync back to your Google account. Wifi is Wifi, so tethering should Just Work.

You should be able to setup up to 8 users on anything above 4.2,if I have been advised correctly? Still learning what can be done.

Have the tab s 10.5 and it’s lovely. Have also just upgraded from iPhone to note 4 yesterday.
Having never had an android device until 2 months ago I must say I’m very impressed.

Was looking for a 10″ tab to replace my aging iPad and I ended up getting the Tesco Hudl2 which is a total bargain. The smaller(8″) screen is actually better for sofa surfing. As Cougar says, being android it syncs with all my Google stuff (I have a Samsung S3).

I’d say Tesco Hudl.

Why would an 8″ screen be better than a 10″ for anything other than portability?

I don’t want a Hudl – if that was my price point, I’d be considering lower end Samsungs also.

That’s what I also thougt until I had a play on one, makes a lot of sense. Even Google’s new tab is only 9″. Don’t mistake it for just another cheap android tab – it’s pretty fast and has a really good screen. It also has pretty much stock android so no Samsung tinkering overlay.

My phone screen is nearly 6″, I want a 10″ tablet…

My Mother’s Sony Experia tablet is lovely. The screen is great (but never compared it to the Samsung)

Just buy the tab s 10.5, you won’t regret it at all. The screen is amazing.

OK, get a 10″ then but if you can, get at look at the HUDL2 before dismissing it. If you are totally set on a bigger tab then get the nexus 9.

I appreciate your input Wacko, but you don’t give any reasons for your suggestions….
