Gorgeous screen ; Fast performance ; Tight Samsung integration ; Good productivity software ; IP68 rating ; S Pen stylus included

Pricey ; Size makes it awkward to handle ; Android on tablets is still limiting

Huge, cinematic screen ; Very good speakers (for a tablet) ; Fluid and smooth 120Hz display
