Samsung's latest Android tablet is the best one it's ever made if you're interested in buying a tablet primarily for watching video it should be at the top of your list it has a bright colorful vibrant razor sharp nine point seven inch screen and four speakers one on each corner HD content looks spectacular and the speakers are loud enough to fill a room though they tend to sound tinny at max volume one of the most special things about the Galaxy Tab s 3 is that it's the first HD already tablet this means it can play HDR content HDR videos have enhanced contrast and an increased range of color resulting in more vivid picture quality basically it's like HD on steroids the bad news is HDR content that's easily accessible on a tablet isn't available yet at the time of review I wasn't able to find any HDR TV shows or movies to download or stream just one playlist on YouTube and I was ready to pay $30 for a rival just check it out the cutting-edge tech might come in handy one day but not today the tablet has a lot of other good things going for it though namely it's gorgeous instead of your typical aluminum or plastic the tablet has a stylish all glass back panel many people think it looks like the iPhone but really it copies the design of the galaxy s7 phone another great thing about it is its stylus it's bundled with Samsung's S Pen and with simple software integration it makes for a useful note-taking accessory the S Pen is surprisingly comfortable it's rubber tip feels smooth when writing or drying and it's oblong shape melts into your hand and prevents it from rolling off your desk best of all you never have to charge it Samsung also offers a Pogo keyboard case for the tablet sold separately for a hundred and twenty nine dollars but I'm not a big fan you can't adjust the viewing angles the keys aren't backlit and the screen goes to sleep when you disconnect it so transitioning from laptop mode to tablet isn't seamless it does however give you a place to store the stylus as a tablet and stylus combo the Galaxy Tab s 3 is like a sexier Loki version of Samsung's Note series though for $600 it's the same price as the iPad pro 9.7 and Google pixel C which are both better for those looking for a tablet for work or gaming but if you want the best portable movie watching experience the Samsung Galaxy Tab s 3 is the way to go
