It's not on KitKat, so uSD access is not an issue.
Interesting about the side-by-side comparison between the Tab S and Note. I've got a Note 10.1 2014 myself, and have been wondering if the new screens were worth getting excited about. I think I'll wait for the next generation of Note devices before getting too excited, particularly now that my poor Note is back from the Samsung repair depot and healthy again.

I am planning on buying two tablets, one for my college-age daughter, and one for me. She has different needs and better eyes
Neither of us is content with the KFHD that I have. I'll sell it.
The N7 is a wonderful device! I am so very impressed. I am playing with it until early August. Everything (magazines, video) is so crisp and clear. Makes me wonder if the S 8.4" would do for me. I'll go check it out again next week. Happily, I found an electronics store here who carries both sizes.
I have read/seen (youtube perhaps?) that the pundits recommend not upgrading just for the screen, but if buying new, the AMOLED is the best option.
I do have one concern, maybe someone has advice? I bought the floor model, that was displayed for no longer than 6 months. I get this from the date of the kernel release on the device. Should I be worried about the battery life? It seems to run fine, and for many hours. Perfect condition. I am discharging it now and will do a full charge later and then see how many hours video I get. I can return it within 14 days, and go back to my plan of getting it from Amazon or BB. It's just more convenient not to carry the two tablets, plus I can actually access the 1-year warranty if needed from Europe, and the wall charger works without an adapter.
