S OK+ for me ....

I must say, having just received my early Christmas present, to myself. of a device my son hopes wil drag me further into the 21st century - as against the Fire, which he thought just about got me out of the 20th but no further ....- I am a convert .
It's a 10.5 Tab S, mainly going on the recommendation of our "WHICH" magazine, who said it was the best tablet they'd ever tested, including the ipad.
Now I haven't done much reading on it, that'll come - I'm reactionary in that I prefer a dedicated ereader, one of any of my Sonys - but, as a tablet, they were right, firstly the screen, which is just astonishing, the best picture I've ever seen. Also the design is very satisfying - incredibly thin, light, and really good mix of physical and digital controls.
I personally haven't noticed any noticeable lag at all - but then I'm rather Mr TechDunce ..... but, if I can use it and find it good ..... wel, another plus point.
The son and heir is grudgingly impressed a) by the Tab S (he uses an ipad at present) and b) by me splashing out the thick end of £400 to get one ......

If the smaller one is anything like this, I'd suggest it would be a very decent reader indeed .

Oh, and the UK support line is also very impressive - rung them 3 times, silly minor familiarity queries really, no real problems - and each time, on busy times too, I was speaking to a real person within a minute ..... and very competently too.
