Stunning display ; Dex mode is an improvement to the UI ; S-Pen included

Would like more RAM ; Glass back is slippery and delicate ; Lingering issues with Android on tablets ; Dex mode has a few annoying bugs

If you want a high-end Android tablet then the Tab S4 is the device to get.

Fantastic, high-resolution screen ; Day-long battery life ; Great, portable size ; Good performance ; Decent 2-in-1 solution

DeX is still a work in progress ; Not enough tablet-optimized apps ; Expensive

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 is a good portable tablet with a unique desktop interface — it’s the best Android tablet to date — but it doesn’t particularly excel in one area. While the hardware is polished, the software is cumbersome.

PC desktop-like Dex interface ; Comes with the S Pen stylus ; Large 10.5-inch screen

Dex touchscreen detection is off ; Keyboard design is unintuitive ; Expensive for what it delivers

The Galaxy Tab S4 is an attempt to push Android tablets to the next level with 2-in-1 desktop-like software, and while it's what we want to see from even the iPad, the idea doesn't automatically make it the best tablet. It has a premium price tag, the...

Beautifully sharp and bright display ; Enviable design that grabs the eye ; S Pen stylus is impressive and comes with it ; Top audio quality for a tablet

Average battery life ; Doesn’t come with keyboard case ; Outdated chipset inside

Sleek build. Gorgeous display. Loud speakers. Great stylus for drawing and note-taking. Excellent Wi-Fi connectivity. Dex brings desktop-like experience.

Expensive. Keyboard accessory costs extra. Mediocre camera. Android-powered tablets still can't do everything Windows tablets can.

Gorgeous screen ; Excellent battery life ; DeX is great for multitasking

Android apps for tablets are still mediocre ; Requires you to buy keyboard / mouse for Dex to be useful ; Face / iris scanning is hit or miss

The flagship Galaxy Tab S4 is Samsung’s attempt at making a tablet that tries to be a laptop. After all, it supports a desktop environment via Samsung DeX, Bluetooth mice, a keyboard, and it comes with an S Pen stylus. But it’s still not meant as a...

Beautiful, bright display; Strong sound; Speedy performance; Productivity-first DeX mode; S Pen offers great tricks ; Cramped keyboard; No touchpad; DeX has room to improve ; The Galaxy Tab S4 pushes Android tablets toward with its productivity-focused...

Cramped keyboard; No touchpad; DeX has room to improve ; The Galaxy Tab S4 pushes Android tablets toward with its productivity-focused DeX mode, but it has a few flaws.

The Galaxy Tab S4 pushes Android tablets toward with its productivity-focused DeX mode, but it has a few flaws.

DeX makes productivity work in Android form ; Fantastic display ; Great battery life ; Great keyboard experience (if you buy it) ; S Pen stylus included

Expensive ; Keyboard costs extra ; 4G costs extra ; Android isn't great for tablet apps ; Not all apps work with DeX

Great for entertainment, the Tab S4 is an expensive Android tablet, but that's offset by the workspace that DeX provides, making this the best Android tablet for working that you'll find.

Slick software ; Big battery

DeX still doesn't deliver ; Not as feature rich as the Note
