Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4" vs Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4" Full Comparison

[@sakitech]

[@MrBendybruce]

I know this is a very old video but I have to say this really is an exceptionally good channel. I have just revived an old tab pro and tab S. I was very curious as to which unit has the superior hardware. Interestingly enough this is the tab pro that I have managed to find Android 11 4, whereas I could only find Android 10 for the tab S. This is a bit of a shame as the tab S clearly has the better display. That said it is amazing that both units are still more than usable in 2022. Thank goodness for custom ROMs. ps. The SD Card size limit does not seem to related to hardware. With Android 10/11 installed, the Tab Pro can address q 128 Gig card, and my bet is they can now both address a 2056 one.

[@MrWhaatay]

Excellent review. To the point without the babbling of so many other reviewers. I especially like that you left the text, like the dimensions and specs, about both tablets on the screen at the same time so we could compare them. Other reviewers would have shown the text of specs for one then replaced with the text of specs for the other leaving you to wonder which was the better one.

[@dardobartoli]

One of the best reviews I have ever seen, Thank you, just what I needed to help me decide... well almost decide. Cheers

[@yourlocalstay6]

Thanks for taking the time to do this!

[@jamesharper8373]

Very well done review! Does the sidestream app allow you to make phone calls (through your phone of course)?

[@RaymondvanPietersom]

Good comparison - good explanation of the differences - good tempo - good speech quality - thumbs up and thank you!

[@drjones694]

This was a great comparison video!!!! Love how you kept the stats for both on the screen while you talked about each feature. Keep.m coming thanks

[@fotowillimzig]

Thanks a lot man! I did not follow the world of phones and tablets for the last couple of months so I did not know the difference between some of the tablets on the market. This really helped me decide which one to get. Thanks you for this great video!

[@elizabeths7700]

I LOVED your review! Sharp and concise with no messing around :-) I'm doing some research for a family member who is a student, on tablets. Based on what I've seen, I think it'll be the Galaxy S, so your review really helped. The only concern I have is whether she should get WiFi only or look to cellular capabilities as well since she does at of commuting. I'm not a fan of public WiFi hot spots because I dont know how safe they are. I'm pretty new to all this myself. Once again, thank you for your review! CYA.

[@UncleFesterBond]

If you go with an LTE model you are adding addition cost to the tablet as well as monthly recurring cost of the plan. With WiFi most smartphone can operate as a mobile hotspot at no additional cost.

[@elizabeths7700]

UncleFesterBond Hi! I'm sorry that my response is late however I just wanted to say a thank you for your response. CYA.

[@az85248]

Clear, concise reporting, nice job!!

[@VapnFagan]

Which screen would you say is the BRIGHTEST? Not so much better looking but which one would you say is the brightest when brightness is turned to max?

[@netsiltrybe6667]

Tab pro is better. I have used both tab s and tab pro. I returned the Tab s after 3 weeks (FYI, I really tried to like the Tab s , but I couldn't ) the Tab pro has a better isplay. The color is so much more realistic and perfect for the eyes. The Tab s has a yellowish visual tone that puts off the display color. Come rain, come shine, the Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 is BY FAR THE BETTER TABLET

[@VapnFagan]

You always have some of the best comparisons out on KZbin! I always come to your channel first when looking to compare items.. Keep up the awesome work!

[@Franciscormj]

This is a awesome comparison review. Subscribed!

[@bigapple9610]

Love your reviews on KZbin. Thanks

[@madogblue]

So refreshing to watch such a well thought out professionally done review

[@scigama71]

This was an excellent comparison. Im getting the S model based on your objective review...One of the best comparsions out here thats less then ten minutes:)

[@flytyme]

Well done comparison. It answered a lot of my questions.

[@UncleFesterBond]

Thank you for your review... one of the best I've viewed comparing these two models!

[@KIISUFUREMINDU]

I just got a TabPro and i was a little worried because i was aware of the TabS on the market. My budget only allowed for the Pro, so i was saddened. But this review has taught me that the Pro and the S are basically the same ! So im completely satified with my purchase, thanks for the vid !

[@richardf911]

The Pro has more natural colors. I prefer it.

[@1nightmare]

Richard F That would really depend on your setting. I own the "S" and in its standard setting, it is indeed oversaturated -- too unreal and cartoonish for some photos. But like I said, the S allows you to modify that setting. It's a great tab for photographers, and the premium of the AMOLED display was worth it to me b/c I'm showing photos to my clients. The image quality just blows their minds. ;)

[@crippled82]

1nightmare the other 2 display settings give ugly whites.

[@bajunaidm]

Excellent review, Very clear and straight to the point.

[@andykao6344]

That was a great comparison, thanks! Awesome! !!

[@TooPoetik88]

Great video, exactly what I've been looking for.

[@prostalservice]

Good review. It's hard deciding between the two with so few side by side comparisons like this. I'm still wondering if the super amoled is worth the price difference.

[@PS-sb8kk]

I used to own the Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4. It was a great tablet. The one thing that I am also reading from other viewers here, as well as what I confirmed by reading other forums and contacting Samsung Customer Support several months ago - Samsung never offered any update to the Tab Pro beyond KitKat. The thing that really bothered me with Samsung Customer Support is that I contacted them in July 2017 - both via online chat as well as phone support. I was lied to a few times, I would say at least a half dozen instances over the period of about a week. I was told by various Samsung support reps that there would be an update for the Galaxy Tab Pro later on in 2017, but all the customer reps said the same thing, that they did not know when it was going to occur. Finally I had a call escalated through Samsung Customer Support, and I was told what I had read and confirmed on many forums about the Tab Pro, that there will be no update for the Tab Pro. It started out on KitKat, and would never go beyond that. People who bought the Tab S are much more fortunate being that it looks like that is updatable to Marshmallow. I realize I could have done an update to the Tab Pro by using Cyanogenmod, but I am not a technical person, as well as read reviews about the instability of the Tab pro updating it that way. I also was ticked off at Samsung lying to me before I finally was able to find out the truth. I traded in the Galaxy in late July 2017, and I used the trade-in value towards an iPad Mini 4 at Best Buy. Pro’s and cons to both Android and IOS, the big pro with Apple is their customer support is much better and you can update their devices for a much longer time than what I experienced with Samsung. Actually prefer Android phones, it’s what I have always used, but based on this experience, I will not consider buying anything from Samsung again. By the way your review of these tablets is really fantastic. It's just that my personal experience owning the Tab Pro was disappointing.

[@wasimjaan3300]

Very nice comparative review, honestly.

[@hoarybat61]

Absolutely wonderful video! I am buying the Pro as it is on sale at BB for $200!

[@edward_lee]

Will be buying the S 8.4 based on this review, thanks!

[@yutro213]

I really appreciate this review. I was in doubt between Tab PRO and S because of the similarities, and I ended up buying S before watching this comparision, and now I see I made the best choice. Thanks!

[@Jerryshock23]

awesome video thanks for the comparison between them.

[@KalingaNations]

That was a great comparison, tnx mate😀

[@k.hunmok1940]

Thank you for your most detailed and comprehensive review - Always the best compared to all others. Your descriptions are fully factual and cool as a cucumber! One question: Can the Galaxy Tab S 8.4" function as a phablet (= capable of making LTE (or 3G) telephone calls on its own) ? Thanks kindly in advance.

[@TutorialesmiCPU]

Yes. Just buy The 3G or 4G version.

[@abdulrahmanalraeisi9564]

The best comparison review ever

[@hermanwalter5400]

I've just purchased the Tab Pro . So far I love it. It does everything I need, Thank you

[@irekirek123]

I like this "Full Comparison" but it is a bit slow still good keep the good work coming

[@thetruthprevails307]

Awesome Comparison!!! Thanks a lot for sharing

[@pattidraper1848]

I'm so glad I just ordered the Tab S 8.4 especially after watching this video! I like the added storage and the fact that it looks like my 5S.

[@chillaxnphilx]

I'm sure somebody may have already mentioned this but with the SD expansion slot, both are capable of 128GB. The reason the Tab PRO only says 64GB was due to the availability of 128GB microSD cards ( they weren't on the market yet).

[@ChristianLieb]

Thanks for the review. Am still trying to decide between the two. And I am wondering about the display, which is the main difference in my opinion.

[@slothfromthegoonies8201]

I very nearly bought the Tab S until I stumbled across the Pro. The Tab S is slightly better, but that doesn't justify the significant step up in price, it just simply isn't a wise investment.

[@Sergio-bg1zu]

Exactly. I also nearly bought a Tab S2 or Tab S but then realized that there was the Tab PRO for nearly half the price. I'm happy with my tablet, Tab PRO 8.4. 😊

[@slothfromthegoonies8201]

***** Yes. The Tab S has a better screen, but that's the only major difference. My experience was the same as yours, I was about to buy the Tab S before spotting the Pro at the last minute.

[@sydneywilliams4155]

I've heard that the Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 also allows up to 128GB of extra storage. Many people have said that at XDA and Amazon.

[@tek1645]

Is single core the main thing you should focus on or the multi-core

[@MrJeffw223]

Excellent job

[@wyomingrose1]

Both seem amazing to me. I am leaning towards the Tab S. It doesn't bother me what it looks like on the outside since I will have it in a cover either way. Thanks for posting this it provided a lot of information.

[@jevonrodgers4599]

can you link the wallpaper (tab s night wallpaper) ive been trying to find it online because its soo gorgeous

[@blue13x]

Good comparison, but the SD card limits is not true. Firmware updates can easili fix this. Both can do 128GB.

[@msull54]

Great video......Excellent job comparing

as the application is called to put pictures in slide wallpaper? does not come in the galaxy tab pro right?

[@stephenmark1130]

Saki tech how many hours of on screen time roughly should I get out off a tab pro 8.4 that's about 3 months old would be really grateful if answer thank

[@hunterfagan6272]

How do you get all those phones and tablets?

[@daniellealdor08]

this review is awesome and so helpful

[@calvintanner80]

I have a question about the Samsung Galaxy Tab S, unlike Amazons Kindle Fire HDX it has a customer service option in the settings menu on the Kindle Fire HDX. Did Samsung add a customer service support option for 5he Tab S, and how is the Tab S better than the Kindle Fire HDX, and I'm probably going to buy this tablet sometime this month or so. So I'm wondering as far as performance, and lag issues with this new tablet will I experience these types of issues with the Samsung Galaxy Tab S.

[@tongwang653]

Very good review!

[@AbhishekSingh-qj5jp]

With the phone sync function can we make ph calls as well? (assuming my phone is up and running at home and I am with tablet in office)

[@zee7379]

Nice review many thanks

[@chrisbullock7187]

Why did samsung create a product called the "Pro" model if the "S" model is better if even slightly in the areas people will care about more???

[@EgamiPhotography]

i will go for tab S because one benefit AMOLED displays offer over their LCD counterparts is better readability in sunlight. You can change the display mode in Tab S in the settings to provide more realistic colours.Four screen modes to choose from: Adaptive Display, AMOLED Photo, AMOLED Cinema, and the Basic screen mode. Your display can suit your preferences in a way that many others can’t.

[@jacobfreedland4434]

thanks so much for that great video!

[@tararatututu8309]

do any of these tablets have a HDMI port? i'm looking for a Samsung Galaxy tablet that has an HDMI port. thanks!

[@Chiamoua86]

I want to get the tab S but also love the tab pro 12.8" screen...Please help me decide. Can't really decided between bigger screen or smaller screen with better pix when watching video

[@georgegog153]

Excellent advice. Thank! I know which one I will go go for now!

[@bosk_dzelski]

Great review. Thanks!

[@申权-v7c]

man ,you have done a excellent job in this video !

[@PaulinhaCardoso88]

Thanks. Your vid was very useful!

[@tcb069]

can you a video on how to move my music, apps, pictures to sd card and anything else you can put there , on a tab pro 8.4 would help me very much , couldnt find any vids on this

[@Victor21RD]

The sidesync i cant used it with another smartphone? if i download the app on google play? example.. i have a HTC ONE M7 and i wanna know if a can sync. with the samsung galaxy tab pro??

[@nomercyforthewicked1852]

great video

[@ArielJerseyJr]

The Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 is 256 USD now in the PH and the Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 is 294 USD. I don't know which is the better buy. PLEASE HELP ME!

[@Gilleouplus]

Hi , could you on sidesync choose the size of the sinde sync windows on this version? at the right bottom there is an arrow

[@TeddyAlFarra]

Hi. Listen, can I use the Tab pro as a phone also ? I mean just simply insert my SIM card in it and call normally? What about the Tab S ?

[@thatguy2014]

I don't think it replaces a phone but ik The tab S can use this one feature where you can call and text from your mobile device

[@ryanspianoaccount]

Great review. Thanks

[@nangkhai3041]

What about the durability? That is my greatest concern, or the determining factor. Which tablet available in the market is most durable?

[@jackievirani1114]

Tab pro I dropped mine more then can count and hasn't had a scratch

[@smarissa92]

can the tab s be used as a phone to make calls n send msgs with a sim card?

Did you really say "more natural colors" for the super amoled? 😁☺

[@davidintel]

The S is much better for multitasking because of the cpus. Good review!

[@seananderson2109]

Excellent comparison Sir.

[@jamesajeter]

Very good review it helped me make up my mind for the tab pro

[@falconryda1318]

Can't decide between galaxy tab A 8 and tab pro 8.4. Any thoughts which is better?

[@Civictyper16]

Fernando Estrada Don't waste your money on the Tab A 8. It has a really low resolution screen 1024 x 768 crappy processor,. The tab pro is leagues above the tab A. Samsung is planning to release a new tablet that has the same form factor 4:3 as the Tab A, Ipad Mini. It's called the Galaxy Tab S2. The tablet should be released around the end of August price 400$ - 499$. But I recommend just buying the Tab pro 8.4 you can't get a better tablet for 200$.

[@NasirKhan1]

Very nice, great review....

[@Aladdin4ek]

Maaan , u r good !!!! Thank you for the good video

[@IndyTheGreat]

I have both tablets in IDENTICAL condition (I keep them identical cause I use the Pro as a backup in case of battery failure or if I lose my S) except that the S is updated to 5.0 and the Pro is on 4.4 since the Pro won't go past that and the Pro out-performs the S. It boots up slightly faster, gets almost 1500 more points in Ice Storm Unlimited than the S and stuff generally moves quicker. Why is this?

[@reneimperiojr.2254]

Nice video.. very nice comparison..

[@stephenmark1130]

I have the tab pro 8.4 is it worth the upgrade

[@bassdojo]

Excellent review. You helped me make my decision. Thank you.

[@seggbenyomom]

thank you for the video!

[@MrBjhuddz]

Great review

[@stephenmark1130]

I watch your videos all the time and can u tell me if my tab pro 8.4 is a 2k display thank you very much

[@athbenny7279]

It's over 2k actually it's 1600x2560 WQXGA

[@gingerdude94]

Great comparison, I have the tab pro and was thinking of upgrading to the tab s but not so sure now. Thanks

[@stephenmark1130]

did u upgrade to the tab s from the tab and was it worth it because i have the tab pro 8.4 and was not sure if it was worth it or not

[@gingerdude94]

No I didn't make the jump in the end, I will probably wait for a tab S2 with hopefully a better processor and gpu .

[@stephenmark1130]

steve rowlands yes I was also thinking about upgrading from tab pro to tab s but there is really not much point

[@stephenmark1130]

steve rowlands how old is your tab pro 8.4 and how many hours of on screen time do u get thanks

[@jevonrodgers4599]

are you sure you cant use the 128 sdxc card for the pro? im sure all you need to do it insert the card into your computer and format it... i remember the issue when 64 sdxc card were first released.

[@Big_Pipe70]

Awesome review.

[@2.0tas15]

Thanks for the helpful review. Right now still undecided. Tab pro 10.1 16gb $369 or Tab S8.4 16gb $369 What do you think I should get? The extra screen size is great. After watching this review, Tab S has newer in Technology. What do you think??

[@alejandromoya4823]

Go for the Newer device, it has a better screen, it's more comfortable to hold (for longer periods), it has a fingerprint scanner (to add more security to your device). And it is probably more likely it'll get software updates from Samsung. Go for the Tab S!

[@GoldenNada]

Alejandro Moya slower cpu exynos variants of samsung devices usually get crappy dev support compared to their qualcomm counterparts either or software support should be bout the same from samsung but dev support will favor the pro because not many people will buy the lte version and the Exynos version doesnt have the best history on dev support. finger print scanner is pretty gimmicky and to me samoled does look better its not worth the 100$+ premium you pay to get it, and some people might not like the over saturated colors or yellow tints the whites have on it. honestly try them both out like i did i found the pro just to offer more bang for the buck mostly cuz you can get it for 219 on amazon. and even new its a little over 100 bucks cheaper with a slightly faster cpu in the the non-lte version of both tablets.

[@riosunlimited7413]

Great comparison

[@EdmarJohnTusi29]

I happy with my galaxy tab pro 😀
