Surface Plates from Microsoft turned out so good that it seems everyone wants to copy them. So far, we have seen similar devices from the Apple , Lenovo , Dell , HP and Google . However, Samsung was also not averse to put a plate on the bandwagon. So Galaxy TabPro S received the capabilities of a notebook, becoming a hybrid analogue Surface Pro 4 and other devices that offer a 12-inch screen, a pressure-sensitive pen input, and Intel Core M. processor is powerful enough to replace your laptop potential.
However, unlike some of its competitors, TabPro S received the first device in its class with a screen Super AMOLED. It is also extremely thin. For a starting price of $ 900 in the kit you also get a keyboard
Pros:.
– extremely thin and light;
– longer battery life compared to the competition;
– the first device in its class with a screen Super AMOLED;
– the touchpad on the keyboard cover works well
. Cons:
– complete keyboard is very compact;
– corner of the screen can not be adjusted when the tablet is docked;

Resume
Galaxy S TabPro at the moment – the last competitor Surface Pro: a tablet with a keyboard that is strong enough to potentially replace a laptop. As a first-generation product, it is highlighted in the tablet mode, offering a slim design and long battery life – a rare combination. The keyboard at the same time turned out too narrow, small to work comfortably. Perhaps, the Samsung will be able to convert the keyboard, but keep the same socket and magnetic characteristics
The plate is incredibly easy:. With a thickness of 6.3 mm it weighs only 1.53 pounds. With that, a competitor in the face of Surface Pro 4 has a body thickness of 8.45 mm and a weight of 1.69 pounds. In conjunction with the keyboard, which adds another 4.9 mm in thickness, the device feels like a thin book in his hand.
The thin edge of the housing allowed to give up most of the ports and buttons? Certainly not. Moreover, the tablet has a magnetic lock for the keyboard, it also has paired the keyboard button, power button, headphone and charging via USB-C port, as well as speakers from both parties.
Samsung offers the best screen on 12 inches with a resolution of 3840 × 2160 pixels. Super AMOLED display looks great. The deep black and pure white colors are displayed perfectly.
Pictures and movies look fascinating in full screen mode. Many will appreciate the bright colors on everyday things. Even the shortcuts on your desktop look like something else, deeper. 4K in this case in conjunction with the oleophobic coating does not just give a look away.
Keyboard
Keyboard included narrow and uncomfortable. Keys lapped so close to each other that you will be guaranteed to press a few at a time. Although the keys are arranged well, convenient. And those who turn to the keyboard only from time to time, problems in the work does not arise. But to the rest is recommended to take an additional keyboard on Bluetooth.
There are other problems associated with the keyboard. One of them is that the screen angle is not regulated, so that the plate is always positioned at the same angle. We have to adapt. But the magnetic lock is made on the conscience, the keyboard is attached easily and is held firmly. Itself is not disconnected, and if offers a mode on default knees.
The trackpad on the keyboard offers a skilful tracking one finger, and understands multitouch gestures such as two-finger scrolling and bringing in / out.
Hardware
for 10 hours and 43 minutes before breaking the tablet without charge, operating continuously . More specifically, when watching movies in Full HD. What hyperfine device is almost a record. Galaxy S TabPro uses a dual-core processor Intel Core Series M. Its clock frequency is 1.51 GHz. Paired with 4GB of RAM gadget cope with most everyday tasks without overheating. Bask him nothing at all. Fanless cooling technology and its air vents only. 515 Intel HD integrated graphics and SSD 128 GB added to taste.
Competition
Surface Pro 4 is, of course, the first tablet that can be called a major opponent. He even sold at a reasonable price at $ 899 and is equipped with almost identical characteristics. But not included is the keyboard. For it is necessary to lay out another $ 130. However, instead, provide a stylus, and the tablet is regulated by the slope of the steps.
For buyers, already tied to the Apple ecosystem, there is also a 12.9-inch iPad Pro (price from $ 799). It is also quite powerful gadget for everyday tasks, that supports pressure-sensitive stylus. However, for he, too, will have to pay another $ 99. Battery life is on par with TabPro S, but competitors are larger and heavier. In addition, of iOS does not support mouse input, that is useless to look for the keyboard touch panels. So that tables and graphs are not podkorrektiruesh.
Total
Samsung Galaxy S TabPro no better and no worse than the Surface Pro 4. This tablet is just a little different . Lightweight, practical, with applications for a record in the field of health, it is easy to survive a full-time and time to work and back. And because of its small thickness is easy to fit into any handbag. The main thing in it – it’s screen is Super AMOLED, which together with the ultra-high resolution provides excellent image. Only because of this Galaxy S TabPro has the right to occupy a shelf in the market and cost 900 $
