5.0 out of 5 stars Just Right! February 5, 2012

By goofysmom

I've felt sort of like Goldilocks in my quest for the perfect android tablet. First I bought the Galaxy Tab 10.1 (from amazon) which I loved but it was large. Then I bought the Kindle Fire which was too small. Then I found the Galaxy Tab 8.9 which is just right! I did have some serious issues with the 10.1 when Samsung pushed 3.2 in late November and mine bricked. Of course, this had to happen while I was out of the country. Was able to get wifi back, but not bluetooth and autorotate. When I got home, sent it back to Samsung. BTW, their first-tier customer service was/is totally clueless. I knew more about the Tab than the rep. Second-tier was fine, however. While the 10.1 was gone, I ordered a Kindle Fire. It was lots of fun but small, kind of clunky, and a bit limiting in what it could do. Sent it back. When the replacement 10.1 arrived, I sold it on ebay and bought the 8.9 at Best Buy. Couldn't be happier. Perfect size - small enough to fit in my handbag, but large enough to type on. Very easy to hold. Bought a couple of handy little adapters on ebay which allow you to charge it with a micro USB, same as my phone. I totally recommend Samsung tablets, especially the 8.9!

4.0 out of 5 stars Loving it! December 29, 2011

By D. Heronemus

As an avid iphone lover (I have a 4S), thought I would give Android a try for my tablet. Love the small, light form factor on this - makes my wife's ipad look like a bit of a clunker!

High-res screen is great as well, plenty of room to type, read, watch videos, etc. Occasionally the slightest of lag when using it, most of the time as snappy an ipad.

Overall I'd buy this again. I've had it for two days now, becoming proficient, comfortable using it. Definitely spent more time setting this up the way I wanted it than I would an Ipad - but enjoy having the widgets and customization.

In short, love my iphone for quick handy tasks on the go, but prefer this for sitting on the couch and casual surfing.

Couple of must have apps for all of you new to Android - Dolphin Browser for pad, Newsr, News360, Score Mobile.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice little device February 19, 2012

By J. Martinez

Amazon Verified Purchase

I had a hard time deciding between the 10.1 Tab and the 8.9 inch tab. In the end price won me over to the Tab 8.9. I am glad purchased the smaller one. It is not to small and not too big.

On to the review. I work in the computer field so I have access to many different devices. What makes this on unique is the size and weight. It is just so easy to take with me, I find that I am reaching for it more and more over the other laptops, tablets, etc that I can use. I am finding I can do more and more with less. Mostly I use the device for web browsing and checking my e-mail. For that it works perfectly. I use the built in Activesync connector to sync with my work e-mail and calendar. My schedule and e-mail sync automatically when I am in range of a wifi network. The battery life is excellent and I can use it all day without charging it. The built in bluetooth has been nice and so I used that to hook up a bluetooth stereo headset so that I can listen to my music off it without a tether. I can't say it is a good replacement for a laptop, it isn't but I can do most of what I need to off it. I decided it was a good replacement for my netbook which has a limited keyboard and mouse anyway.

Pros: Lightweight, easy to use out of the box and excellent battery life. It uses the Android system which has access to many free applications. This is superior to the very locked down and Flash-less IOS in my opinion. No need to go Apple. The pre-loaded applications are great and you don't need much more but can always go to the Android market and get what you need. The device does multitasking and has nice powerful processor to handle the work comfortably.

Cons: The ad on this page is wrong. This device contains no USB connector. Although it wasn't a big issue for me, Amazon needs to fix the ad. I bought the Samsung connection kit which has a USB connector and SD card connector. There is one connector which you use for syncing or charging and that is it. This may be limiting for some folks. Networking the device with your home network is awkward. This really needs to be improved and kept me from giving it a 5 star rating.
