The Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 features a slew of features that puts it apart from the others in the pack. Samsung has managed to combine style, elegance and sophistication in a single device that will not look out of place in your hands, at the coffee shop or even a board room table. Plus, it is plenty powerful to do just about anything you want it to do.
Power on demand
The Galaxy Tab S3 comes with more power than you would want. Inside is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor, which is definitely powerful enough to run just about any app you have in mind. While it is not the latest processor, it is still a flagship-level SoC that ensures all of your apps will be running without problems, whenever you need it.
Memory? No problem
Not only the Galaxy Tab S3 comes with a high performance processor, it has enough memory to back it up. 4GBs of RAM means that the apps running on the tablet will not be facing the dreaded low memory notification, while 64GB of on board storage means the tablet can handle as much data as you have – and can even expand more storage through the microSD slot.
Screen perfect
The 9.7 inch IPS Super AMOLED screen will display any content you throw at it without any problem. The screen is bright, renders punchy colours and is also a power saver when you need it to be. The S-Pen meanwhile turns this normal screen into a creativity tool, thanks to the support for drawing apps as well as 4096 pressure levels. You can easily emulate a light brush of paint, or a hard scratch of a pencil on screen with little to no trouble.
Complete productivity
If you think a tablet is only to consume, think again. With the optional cover keyboard, you can type your short (or even long!) article whenever you need to do work. Thanks to the POGO pins on the tablet, you do not need to use Bluetooth as it will be automatically recognised by the tablet without any fussy pairing modes to be activated. This cover plus the pen equals unrivalled productivity.
