      Geez that sucks, never buy a Mac for full retail. Just wait around for the DSE 12/13/14% off Mac sale which came up pretty regularly last year.

    Never buying another Samsung tablet again. Software updates never come. Anyone with a note 8 will know this.

      4.4.2 is the latest firmware for Note 8. Australia is very behind with firmware updates. Best to flash another country's firmware if you want the latest.

      • Ranagade on 15/01/2015 - 10:06

        Doesn't the 4.4.4 update have S-Pen offset issues?

      • giventofly on 15/01/2015 - 11:15

        I wouldn't say Australia - Samsung are still releasing phones with 4.4 - unacceptable. They take your money and leave you to dry.

        Just got a Tab S for my sister (the one she wanted) - and whilst it's got an incredible screen, excellent form factor - it still has the stuttering and slowness of Ice Cream Sandwhich. Samsung are destroying Android. Never again.

        Hopefully the S6 has a lighter version of TouchWiz and runs smoothly.

          Just got a Tab S for my sister (the one she wanted) - and whilst it's got an incredible screen, excellent form factor - it still has the stuttering and slowness of Ice Cream Sandwhich.

          Are you sure you didn't get a dodgey knock off? The hardware in the Tab S should be good enough to handle 4.4.4 for at least another year or so.

        • giventofly on 15/01/2015 - 12:05

          @ProjectZero:

          Yes, I'm certain. It runs well once you're in, but every now and then it stutters. This is common for Samsung from my experience.

        • [Deactivated] on 15/01/2015 - 12:15

          4.4 is kitkat, and it's the one that comes with the Tab S, which I have.

          Also most Android phones run older versions of Androids.

          Of course, you'll get the latest with a Nexus… But the Samsung flagships are not on the couch either. What flagship tablets come with Lollipop, the latest Android?

          +2

          @rorymeister:

          Have noticed that stuttering is limited to Chrome on Tab S. Try the stock Internet browser, for me this gives absolutely no stuttering. Looks like there is an issue with Chrome on this device.

        • iridiumstem on 15/01/2015 - 18:21

          Tab S is going to get Lollipop this year sometime. Also, I thought other than Nexus, most tablets are in process of getting lollipop?

          That being said, I've heard rumours that Samsung is getting rid of all the junk stuff they had with TouchWiz (Aims to have similar experience to Nexus) for S6.

    • sallan75 on 15/01/2015 - 09:41

      I have owned 2 Samsung Android phones and a tablet and 2 updates is about the most they got. My S4 is still on Android 4.3 :(

        I am using LG G3. After two months of Kitkat, now I am on Lollipop. Maybe in a few months time, I will be eating Marshmallow.

      • Punkboy on 15/01/2015 - 20:13

        That's strange, I got an s4 for Christmas, turned it on and got 4.4 upgrade right away.

        • sallan75 on 22/01/2015 - 23:21

          Mine still says 4.3, had it for 1.5 years. Check updates, says no.

    • Temporary username on 15/01/2015 - 11:52

      I also have note 8 n5110 , i dont know why when i play game ( Hay Day, about 60 MB) , battery runt out very quick,some time only 40 minutes , maximum time is 70 minutes. Does any one have the same problem like me? I only play one game for a year. But when i leave it standby. Did not use at all. It s take 9 days to empty the battery. Anyone play that game and have the same?

    • TRENT86 on 17/01/2015 - 17:53

      Doesn't google own nexus and that's why they get updates quickly because the system they run on is created by their owner

      Can you buy one for $338?

    • ShamelessBargains on 15/01/2015 - 09:22

      If you like Super Amoled displays and finger print scanners then buy the Tab S.

      Tab Pro seems sufficient for most tablet users and its display is still rather decent. The Tab S is also a lot more expensive so its assumed to be better but this is great buying for a premium 10.1" tablet.

  • thehulk1969 on 15/01/2015 - 09:24
    +2

    Look. Its a price decision. If you are on a budget and want the Tab S, this is the unit for you. If you can cough up the extra dough, then the Tab S will be a litle more future proof with 3GB Ram and Octacore Processor…

    If i couldnt afford Tab S, this would do the trick…plus youll be able to hack it later if you get bored.

    • xuqi on 15/01/2015 - 09:36
      +1

      They use the same processor.

        • xuqi on 15/01/2015 - 09:43
          +3

          I have owned the 8.4 and 10.1 Pro and S's. Still own the 10.1 Pro and 8.4 S, both LTE.

          The LTE models of the Pro use Snapdragon 800, but the Australian Wi-Fi model used the Samsung Octa.

          Personally I prefer the Snapdragon 800 myself (better power management).

          Samsung also has a habit of using different CPU's for differing regions. I always make sure I check the specs in store when looking at Samsung's, as its damn confusing.

        • cosjav on 15/01/2015 - 12:48

          Based on the specs listed on the JB Hifi website (same model number here), it looks like this is the Exynos Tab Pro model :-(

  • Ronnnie on 15/01/2015 - 09:52

    The s800 is the better processor, go look at benchmarks and compare

  • thehulk1969 on 15/01/2015 - 09:55

    Just remember that the processor is only as good as the OS written for them…optimise the OS to make use of processor instruction sets and the game changes…would be interesting to see how lollipop would run on both if and when they roll it out, which by my calcs should be in the not too distant future for the Tab S…hence why running custom roms beyond processor capability on devices creates lags and performance/battery issues etc…been there done that over the last few years…

    Does anyone know whether JBHIFI would do a price match of the macbook pro selling for 1188$ at Officeworks? And do they reduce it to a further 5%? Jbhifi is selling it for 1211.40$ and what are your opinions on buying the non-retina macbook pro? Thank you.

      • shaun007 on 15/01/2015 - 12:12

        If I get it cheaper than what OW is selling with the price match and discounts from other stores, that'll save me a few bucks to get a HD

          So what would you recommend? Go to OW and tell them that a different store will do a price match of $1188 of OW price ? And if OW would give me a discount of the 5%? Thanks for all your replies guys, I haven't used the price match thing a lot before, so still learning. Thanks

        • [Deactivated] on 15/01/2015 - 13:02

          @shaun007: OW don't price match themselves. I doubt you will get lower.

  • thehulk1969 on 15/01/2015 - 11:35

    I know a senior gentleman in JB and their policy is not to turn business away. Having said that, you can try the 5% bit but it is not stated policy so they are not obliged…you can try and find it cheaper than officeworks and tell the JB dude but I can go to officeworks and get another 5% off and see how you go…harvey norman and good guys should also come to the party…times are tough, margins are thin, turnover is crucial for businesses…

    • shaun007 on 15/01/2015 - 11:43

    • fatice on 15/01/2015 - 12:44

      For the same 5% price match, I rather go with OW than begging on price with JB or HN. Also, the after sale support is hell in JB and HN since it is commission based.

    • DarwinBoy on 15/01/2015 - 13:06

      on boxing day i went to JB to ask them to match Dick Smiths $249 Galaxy tab 4 10.1 and the IT guy said nope. Didnt hesitate at all in saying no and telling me that was below their cost price.

      • thehulk1969 on 15/01/2015 - 13:19

        Had that experience as well. Each retailer buys in at different prices as we know and at times, so Ive been told, manufacturers such as Samsung or ASUS offer the retailer a subsidy/factory cashback in order to promote their product. I remember clearly the case with HN a while back where they had ripper price on a tablet and no other place could go near it. Subsidy of some sort I was told.

        Moral of the story. Never go into a store on Boxing day without boxing gloves…

  • AncientWisdom on 15/01/2015 - 14:28

    Got one on Sunday. Crazy deal for what you get… Tab S has slightly bigger, but not better display, too over saturated! I rooted my device within 24hrs and I am hunting for a cheap decent folio case and a 64gb card… I have been looking for an iPad for the 3 and a half years old iPad 2, dead by dipped into the bath water twice by my son. I must confess if price is no object, I will get an iPad with 128gb on board, but after my brief trial at JB, I couldn't convince myself to look elsewhere. This tablet has decent screen, no lag, acceptable text rendering speed on text while reading with Zinio app, which I bought my tablet mainly for. I am glad that I didn't order Xiaomi's Mipad which costs even less, but this tablet is a safer bet. About Snapdragon, like I said, no tablet has yet to beat an old iPad in every way in my opinion. Snapdragon processors are good too, but Tab S wifi has the same Octa-core processor as this Tab pro, which is no slouch at all. Unless you opt for the LTE version which costs roughly double the price I paid for this.
