Well, now I read about a battery-overheating problem with the "S" devices! This is a deal-breaker big issue for me as I only have a couple of weeks in the USA, and I don't want to send it back overseas for replacement, etc.

So, reconsidering the Tab Pro line...too bad the price increased from the $250 sale. Since you have the tablet, could you please answer a few questions?

I am concerned about screen glare making reading difficult. Have you read magazines or books with your tablet? Is there a "reading mode" or perhaps Screen Dim would help reduce glare? Reading outside (sunlight) is not an issue for me, although I would like to be able to use the tablet in typical room daylight. Similar to the Nexus 7 would be fine.

Also, a Youtube video comparison had the Pro model battery lasting 10-12 hours, while the Amazon description states up to 6 hours. What do you find? How long does it take to charge from the wall and can I use it while it is charging?

I think these are my main concerns.

Really appreciate the help!
