Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 Review

16 GB     See other variants reviews Score: 74 / 100

Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 is a high-end device released some years ago, in 2014, with a quite big 8.4-inches touch-screen, a very fast 2300 megahertz Quad-Core CPU, an 8 mega-pixels back camera and a 2 megapixels front side camera.

Samsung sells the Tab Pro 8.4 with a high-tech Quad-Core processing unit ticking at 2300 MHz, packed into a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 MSM8974 system chip with a big 2 GB RAM memory. Graphic intensive apps and games usually consume a lot of CPU time, so it also uses an Adreno 330 GPU ticking at 450 megahertz to unload the processor. The Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 has anice 16 GB internal storage memory and an external SD slot, enough to install hundreds of apps and games without any trouble.

This tablet is extremely slim and good-looking, being just 0.28 inches thick. Even though this tablet is only 8.62" long and 5.06" wide, it is able to fit a a 8.4" screen. This device feels much lighter than what you expect from a tablet of this size.

Samsung packed this device with a great 8.4 inches display, and a 2560 x 1600 resolution, giving this tablet device a very detailed graphic quality. Its display uses Super Clear LCD capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

The Tab Pro 8.4 has wifi capability (which can be provided to other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot), 4G (LTE) great performance connection type and also HSPA+ internet connection, that is a slower 4G technology and 3G fast internet connection, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The Tab Pro 8.4 uses a SIM card for GSM services.

This device features two cameras, an 8 MP back side camera and a 2 mega-pixels front camera. It is capable of filming videos in 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 60 fps. This camera also counts with a lot of useful features: auto-focus, flash, face detection shooting, HDR mode, smile detection shooting and geo tagging.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 also comes with a couple cool features as Infrared Transmitter, Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS Geolocation, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

The Tab Pro 8.4 uses amassive 4800 mAh non-replaceable battery that can keep this tablet running for several hours and even reach the end of the day without charging it. An issue to consider is that this tablet's battery isn't removable so you can't throw it away and buy a new one when it begins to get older, while with so much capacity you will probably buy a new tablet before it happens.

The Tab Pro 8.4 is priced $ 289, which is quite a high price for this kind of tablet. It doesn't matter whether you want a tablet to play games, want a social portable tablet, you love taking pictures or need this tablet for work, this portable tablet is definitely the right choice for you.
