Cons
keyboard dock disconnects randomly.

i had this tablet for about a week and returned it. i wish i didn't have to because i loved it. the reason why i returned it was becuase the keyboard dock was constantly disconnecting. i really needed the keyboard for writting essays for school. other than that i LOVED the thing. i will attempt to buy another one. hopefully it won't have that issue.

trent: they have a at&t 4g/3g version of this tablet. it will get you internet connection anywhere. the downside of it is, that version does not come with the wacom digitizer and s-pen. huge downside in my perspective.

robert: i don't see a reason why you would give a 1-star just because of the reason that you were giving. its an issue with the current level of technology, not with the product itself. its none of my business, but cmon! this tablet is definately not a 1-star!

So far im very impressed as its replaced my laptop and my ipad and i like the android system with the Samsung apps. 4.5 rating only because of the fake sim slot..

Pros
screen size
Cons
glare from screen
• • •

The screen size is very nice, much better than 10.6".

Screen glare is a huge problem with this tablet, in fact, with all screens including TV's.

Does anyone enjoy seeing reflections of windows, book cases, overhead lights, etc while trying to view something on the screen? No.

So why do manufacturers keep shoving glare screens onto us?

If they think it's worth putting up with glare just to get a little extra brightness, they are wrong.
