Hey.
In the traditional pros, we look at ten positive features of a Samsung tablet, while in the cons there are ten reasons that might stop you from buying. As usual, the balance is somewhere in between, but you can also read the review of this model to draw your own conclusions about its applicability in your life.
Reason # 1. Two-in-one device, possible laptop replacement
We are used to the fact that many work tasks, not to mention entertainment, are easily solved on tablets. It is enough to buy a keyboard, which is usually presented as a cover-case, and you can type texts, respond comfortably to letters or communicate in instant messengers without using the on-screen keyboard.
But since we are all different, we use our devices in different ways, then only you can tell how much such a laptop replacement will suit you. For some, the capabilities of the Tab S7 + and its keyboard are enough for the eyes, someone will complain that something is missing. This is the most controversial point, since some will interpret it in favor of the device, while others will say that it is still a toy. Both will be right, all this is individual.
I will say carefully that this is by far the best approximation to such two-in-one devices – a large full-size keyboard with excellent keystrokes and fast typing, even blindly. I like it – whatever one may say, it turned out well. And here’s the time to say that for many, the presence of a keyboard does not play any role, since people do not type texts, do not see much sense in this, for them it is the second reason.
Reason # 2. Superb screen with the latest technology from Samsung
The screen diagonal determines a lot in the tablet, but the most important thing that it affects is the device’s mobility. It’s one thing to carry a small tablet with you that fits anywhere, quite another – when the display is more than 12 inches, here it is 12.4 inches. The size of the tablet in the cover resembles ordinary 13-inch laptops, those that are called ultrabooks.
But unlike laptops, you can remove the cover here, the tablet is easy to hold in one hand, for example, when you are lying in bed and watching a movie. Although it’s good to use the same cover for these purposes, the angle of inclination is regulated here.
The AMOLED screen, as in the flagships of different companies, has a frequency of 120 Hz, which ensures smooth scrolling of lists, the interface works smoothly, visually it is very pleasant. But the most important thing is that the color rendition is the same in different conditions, even in the sun, even indoors – the maximum brightness is such that it makes no difference where you work with the tablet. This screen is flagship in all respects; you simply won’t find anything better in tablets.
Therefore, if you like to watch movies from a mobile device or work on it and the screen size is important to you, this device is definitely for you. Those who work or manage to do several things at the same time should also pay attention to the split screen mode.
Reason number 3. Splitting a window for multiple applications
In mobile devices, many are accustomed to the fact that multitasking is very conditional, it is impossible to simultaneously work in several applications. Samsung has changed this, you can split the screen into three windows, move open applications between them.
This is convenient when you are watching the broadcast and at the same time writing something in Telegram or another messenger, peeping at your notes. Everyone here chooses their own set of applications. Convenience is clearly not necessary for everyone, but having mastered the split-screen mode once, I want to use it everywhere.
Reason number 4. DeX mode, full computer replacement
Speaking of multitasking, dividing the window into several parts, one cannot but recall the DeX mode, which gives a Windows-like interface for your tablet. Here you can open several windows, switch between them, drag and drop files and copy information. The feeling that you are working on an ordinary computer with an interface that does not at all resemble a mobile device.
Also, this mode can be used to connect a tablet to a TV, and of any brand, you can turn your tablet into a computer by connecting a mouse and any keyboard. A familiar interface for computers. To connect to third-party monitors or TV, you need an HDMI cable.
Reason number 5. Excellent work with TV from Samsung – broadcasting pictures from your tablet and more
Having said about the DeX mode, it is impossible not to mention Smart View, this is the ability to broadcast the tablet screen to Samsung TVs or to a Windows computer. You can use this feature to show videos or photos from your device on the TV, for example, when you have guests, this allows you to show a photo from your vacation or something else. It is also a great presentation opportunity. As for me, Smart View is greatly underestimated. Anyone who starts using this opportunity becomes attached to it instantly.
Reason number 6. S Pen and its features
Samsung has consistently developed the capabilities of the S Pen, it can write, draw, draw diagrams. The number of S Pen apps built into the tablet is huge, the updated Samsung Notes are great.
For those who are used to writing by hand, this is just the perfect assistant, you can take notes on the big screen, and it is also a suitable screen size for drawing. To date, there is no other device that offers a similar range of stylus capabilities as the Tab S7 + does.

Reason number 7. Maximum Life – Chipset, Memory
The tablet is bought for a long time, so it is important that it stays in shape even after a few years. This means that you need to have enough memory in the tablet, a powerful processor. Everything here is at the level of the best devices – Snapdragon 865+, 6 GB of RAM, there is support for memory cards. For at least four years and even more, this tablet will work like the first day, without slowdowns, quickly and clearly.
Reason number 8. Fast charging and long working time
For many, a tablet is a home device, but for those who go out into the world, work on the road or watch movies, the time is important. And here Tab S7 + opens from a new side due to the AMOLED screen, which is economical compared to TFT matrices. The tablet lives for a long time from each charge, has the maximum time for playing video or browsing the web, working in corporate systems. The charging time is also minimal, the tablet can be charged quickly, you will not be left without it at the most inopportune moment. In short, I like how long it has been working.
Reason number 9. Software – OneUI 2.5 and above
The interface and its capabilities are not pure Android at all, but the interface from Samsung, it is called OneUI. Thoughtful, lightweight and simple, expanding the capabilities of your tablet. These are the little things that combine to create the perception of the system. The same DeX is also a part of the system, as well as a center for controlling a smart home, and there are a lot of such moments. Other manufacturers do not have a similar unity of concept, the exception is Apple, but there are other restrictions.
Reason number 10. Cost versus competitors
As a rational person, I always assess the value and how much it is in the market. This tablet is a competitor to the iPad Pro, and this is what comes out when you compare them head-on.
The difference in price is staggering, and here you need to take into account that the S Pen is included with the Tab S7 +, you do not need to buy it separately.
Also, the Tab S7 + wins on screen, and Android does not have any of the inherent limitations of Apple’s system. In short, you get the most sophisticated device for less money. And this is a rational approach, since the Tab S7 + is a real flagship in the tablet segment, which does not have any special drawbacks.
In the following text, we will discuss ten reasons that may stop you from buying a tablet that is not as good as you would like.
