What reviewers say

Reviewers find the Galaxy Tab S11 well made and fast, with a slim design, but not especially good value against the iPad Air and cheaper Android rivals. Expert Reviews rated the display bright and punchy where TechRadar found it lacking next to the iPad's; Expert Reviews also found battery life behind rivals, and TechRadar found the touchscreen overly sensitive.
