Whether it is a matter of status or because it is really used intensively and demandingly, the need to have a high-end phone with the best features on the current market makes much more sense than when thinking about a new tablet model. Here’s how the simple Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 has gained ground since its launch.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 is a mid-range tablet that is presented as a fairly simple option but at the same time complete in terms of performance and compliance with the usual tasks that a user performs with it, from work and professional activities, experience of reading, browsing and playing multimedia content .

Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 has a fingerprint reader on the front face

In terms of design, Samsung maintains the same essence of its catalog of tablets that has been observed for years, with high-quality materials but with classic lines that do not add original or innovative details as is seen in its high-end smartphones .

With a commercialization in both white and black , the official dimensions of Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 correspond to 198.6 x 134.8 x 5.6 mm , that is to say with a really thin thickness that makes it very comfortable when holding it. Also its total weight of 264 grams avoids the sensations of heaviness after long periods of use.

As can be seen in the images, the construction of the equipment is based on plastic in most of the surface, although it includes aluminum frames on its four areas so that there is more resistance when it comes to suffering those damaging side blows or involuntary falls.

Finally, an advanced element in its design is on the central key present at the bottom edge of the screen, since with just a touch with the finger its integrated fingerprint reader comes into action to certify itself on certain web pages, unlock the device and access Samsung account instantly.

Ideal for reading

Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 works properly as an e-reader

The 8-inch size chosen for its screen really makes it excellent so that it does not feel too large when having it with one hand, nor that the brightness of the entire panel leaves consequences on the visual health of users after many hours of use.

For example, the 4: 3 aspect ratio scores good points for reading and browsing the web in portrait format. Even the “Reading Mode” present by default adjusts the brightness and changes the desktop background automatically, thus reducing eye strain and creating an ideal bright environment.

To conclude, it cannot be omitted to mention that the technology used is the same as for Samsung’s other powerful mobiles , Super AMOLED , with multi-touch function and a resolution that far exceeds Full HD, more precisely 2048 x 1536 pixels.

Interesting performance

Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 comes with Android Marshmallow from the factory

Without reaching the level of models like the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 , the truth is that you can take advantage of the hardware of this tablet in a very good way. The key is in the use of a processor composed of eight cores , followed by 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of internal storage expandable via microSD up to 128 GB.

On the other hand, there is an 8 megapixel rear camera with f / 1.9 aperture that allows you to create sharper and brighter images and videos (in Full HD at 30 fps), even in low light, while its front face has a 2.1 megapixel sensor designed for making video calls.

In terms of autonomy, its 4000 mAh lithium-ion battery allows continuous video playback for 14 hours, as well as navigation with Wi-Fi activated for 7 hours and up to 71 hours of playback of audio before needing a recharge.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 runs on the Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system , also allowing a multi-window function (or split screen) that simplifies the use of the entire surface of the screen to watch HD movies while reading a digital magazine or watching. surf the web.
