HIGHLIGHTS

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 is priced at Rs. 57,900

It comes with a bundled S-Pen

The tablet has a great display and loud speakers

Even with slumping Android tablet sales and customers losing interest, Samsung has been one of the few OEMs to consistently upgrade its mid-range and premium tablet lineup. The South Korean manufacturer unveiled its latest flagship model, the Galaxy Tab S4, in India last month, as a competitor to Apple's iPad Pro.

The Galaxy Tab S4 comes bundled with a redesigned S-Pen that has a proprietary tip. A departure from the previous-gen Galaxy Tab S3's design, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 sports an even sleeker look with smaller bezels, and comes packed with premium internals. However, it costs as much as some professional laptops, so there are a lot of aspects to factor in before deciding whether this is the right gadget for you.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 design

With a larger 10.5-inch Super AMOLED panel, the Galaxy Tab S4 is just slightly thicker than last year's Galaxy Tab S3, at 7.1mm. It sports the same glass back design that is now seen on Samsung's entire flagship smartphone lineup. Despite its tablet-sized proportions, the glass back is not slippery at all and the Galaxy Tab S4 can be easily held in one hand. The tablet is not thick enough for a silo for the stylus, so you will have to carry it around separately unless you buy the keyboard folio case or another accessory that can hold it.

While still not on par with the Infinity Display design of the Samsung Galaxy S9₹ 46,900 and Galaxy Note 9₹ 61,900, the tablet does have smaller borders compared to the Galaxy Tab S3 (Review). Expectedly, Samsung has had to make borders thick enough for users to hold onto them without triggering any unwanted responses on the touchscreen with their thumbs.

Thanks to these smaller borders, the capacitive Android navigation buttons make way for onscreen ones. With the Home button and its integrated fingerprint sensor gone, the Galaxy Tab S4 now relies on software-based face recognition, Iris scanning, and a combination of both (Intelligent Scan) for biometrics. With the Samsung logo also gone from the top, the borders appear symmetrical from all sides and less distracting, which is a good thing.

A metal frame is sandwiched between the glass front and rear panels of this tablet. It has the same four-speaker setup, with two on the top and two on the bottom. The stereo sound and Super AMOLED panel make this an interesting device for watching videos. On the right are the lock/ power button and the volume buttons, along with a tray that houses one Nano SIM slot and one MicroSD card slot. On the bottom are a USB Type-C port and a 3.5mm headphone socket, placed very close to one another.

Much like its predecessor, the Galaxy Tab S4 has an almost bare glass back, albeit with a single rear camera and an accompanying LED flash. There is a silver Samsung logo and “Tuned by AKG” branding on the back, keeping the look minimal.

Build quality is great and the weight is distributed equally. At about 482g, the tablet is easy to hold and effortless to carry around in a bag. With a symmetrical approach to its design, content on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 looks fine in portrait as well as in landscape mode.

The S-Pen has received a redesign too this time around. It is glossier, more rounded, and feels much more natural to hold in the hand compared to the one bundled with the Galaxy Tab S3. A neat little addition is a metal ring with a slight protrusion around the middle of the S-Pen that prevents it from rolling on a slippery surface.

In the box, Samsung includes the tablet itself, the redesigned S-Pen, a USB Type-C cable, a fast charger, a nib removal tool, and the usual five extra stylus nibs. The tablet is available in India in Black and Grey colour options, but as of now only the 64GB storage configuration with LTE has made its way into the Indian market.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 specifications

Targeted as a flagship tablet in 2018, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4's internals don't quite match up to that promise. It uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 SoC, which is almost two years old now. Add to that, the tablet still has just 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage which is frankly quite disappointing. It is especially surprising to see outdated specifications in this tablet given that it originally launchedalongside the Galaxy Note 9, which has better hardware. Only the LTE model has been launched in India, and you can use any 4G Nano-SIM to make calls and browse the Internet.

One of the highlights of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 is its 10.5-inch Super AMOLED display, with a resolution of 1600x2560 pixels. The HDR-enabled display is a great way to watch videos on any major platform of your choice - YouTube, Netflix, or Amazon Prime Video. You can also play your own video files by loading them onto the device using the right app.

Other specifications include a humongous 7,300mAh battery, a 13-megapixel autofocus rear camera with an LED flash, an 8-megapixel selfie camera, Bluetooth 5, and Wi-Fi 802.11ac with Wi-Fi Direct. The USB Type-C port at the bottom supports USB 3.1 Gen 1 speed.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 performance

We tested out the HDR-enabled Super AMOLED panel of the Galaxy Tab S4 that is now supported by Netflix. Narcos on Netflix looked great, with crisp colours and excellent overall reproduction. The stereo sound is loud and crisp, and complements the display. However, users looking to control their bandwidth usage should remember that video streaming at the highest quality utilises more than 2GB per hour. Much like the AMOLED panels on Samsung's smartphones, we had no complaints with brightness, viewing angles, or contrast on the Galaxy Tab S4.

The combination of Samsung Experience UI and an older Qualcomm Snapdragon processor do not deliver ideal performance on the Galaxy Tab S4. Basic actions such as accessing the Bixby Home screen or switching between a couple of heavy apps produced frame drops that Samsung might not be too proud of. The relatively low amount of RAM was an issue, as apps kept being quit completely as we switched between a few heavy ones including Facebook, PenUp, and Netflix.

This was also reflected in our benchmarks. The Galaxy Tab S4 scored a decent 1,97,851 in AnTuTu, 1,805 in Geekbench's single-core test, and 6,351 in Geekbench's multi-core test, but managed only a paltry 13fps in GFXBench's intensive Car Chase test.

The S-Pen offers interesting possibilities, especially for budding artists and even generally creative individuals. It always registered accurate actions, and we even liked using it to navigate around the tablet's UI. While we were initially skeptical that we would accidentally register input while resting our palm on the display while sketching, the tablet did a decent enough job of preventing that.

The Galaxy Tab S4 forgoes a physical fingerprint sensor in favour of face and iris scanning. While the iPad Pro also went down the same route this year, Apple's Face ID is still ahead of the software-based face scanning that Samsung offers on its tablet. A combination of face unlock and iris scanning, called Intelligent Scan, is helpful, but does little to help in tricky situations and in low light. It almost always required us to hold the tablet in a very specific way leading us to use the screen pattern instead. You really need to focus on the light emitted by the iris scanner which is a frustrating process to have to go through every time you want to unlock your tablet.

The Galaxy Tab S4 borrows the rear camera from its predecessor, and it is still average at best. Samsung's high-end smartphone cameras have often been the talk of the town, and the one on the Galaxy Tab S4 offers similar colour reproduction but lacks flagship-level clarity. Even low-light shots are passable at best, and cannot be compared to photos taken by most of the flagship smartphones out there. Don't be fooled by how good the images look on the tablet itself; that's the gorgeous Super AMOLED panel at work. That said, a tablet's cameras aren't even competing in the same category and you would rarely be using this device as your primary mobile camera.

The Galaxy Tab S4 sports an upgraded selfie camera, which can come in handy for video chatting. The 8-megapixel front camera offers good selfie shots in daylight or good indoor lighting conditions. Don't expect good quality at night, with the camera blowing out colours and struggling to produce a clear shot. The camera app borrows certain features from Samsung smartphones, including Selfie Focus that offers a bokeh effect, AR-based stickers, and a wide angle mode. These features work as they would on any Samsung phone.

Battery life with the tablet was impressive given the significant upgrade to a 7,300mAh unit. While it ran out of juice relatively quickly after intense gaming sessions involving Asphalt 9, we could sketch and colour using the S-Pen for hours with stable battery reduction. Standby time was excellent, especially on Wi-Fi networks. We had to charge the tablet about once every few days with moderate usage that involved gaming, sketching, and Web browsing. The battery does drain faster if you watch a lot of HDR video. The bundled charger takes about 3 hours and 20 minutes to take the Galaxy Tab S4 from 0 to 100 percent. It lasted 11 hours and 21 minutes in our HD video loop test.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 software, S-Pen, and Book Cover Keyboard

The Galaxy Tab S4 runs Samsung Experience 9.5 on top of Android 8.1 Oreo. The software is exactly what you would see on Samsung's Galaxy range of smartphones. The major differentiator with this generation is Samsung DeX, the company's attempt at creating a PC-like experience on mobile devices. With DeX on Samsung's flagship-class smartphones, you have to plug in an external display and you can use it with a keyboard and mouse, but the Galaxy Tab S4 also lets you use the DeX interface on the tablet itself when paired with Samsung's Book Cover Keyboard.

Samsung sent us the Book Cover Keyboard along with the Galaxy Tab S4, and we found it to be comfortable to use. The tablet fits nicely into the grooves provided, and magnets latch on to hold in place perfectly. The keyboard itself is easy to type on with the keys having a good amount of travel. The case does not add a significant amount of weight to the tablet, and works passively with no battery of its own, so you don't need to worry about charging. There's a silo for the S-Pen, which also has a secure fit. The Book Cover Keyboard is priced at Rs. 7,499 in India. A cheaper Book Cover (sans keyboard) can be purchased for Rs. 3,999.

The DeX UI will pop up automatically when you slip the tablet into the Keyboard Cover, which is attached magnetically, or when you plug in an external display using a Type-C to HDMI adapter. The toggle is otherwise hidden behind a bunch of menus in the Settings app.

Samsung's DeX looks like a scaled-down hybrid between the the Windows 10 desktop and the Samsung Experience UI. It has a fairly straightforward home page with quick shortcuts to major system apps. The most interesting part is that these apps do not take up the entire screen when opened, by default, allowing you to see several apps on the same screen. This can be useful for someone who is not that into the split-screen style of multitasking, and wants a more traditional, desktop-like approach.

We tried basic word processing apps such as Microsoft Word and Google Docs with the DeX interface and found them to be much more comfortable to use. This is because DeX naturally reduces icon and font sizes for a desktop-like experience.

The regular mobile interface of the tablet also offers the usual split-screen multitasking functionality; supported apps will have a multitasking icon in the Recent Apps menu. Switching and resizing two apps in split-screen is intuitive and you can easily create a shortcut on your home screen that launches any pair of apps, swap the two apps, minimise one of them, and even close them with a single tap.

Other than that, the software on the Galaxy Tab S4 is largely the same as what we see on Samsung's smartphones, with several proprietary apps for email, calendar, phone, messages, and even the browser. The SmartThings app lets you connect to your Samsung cloud-connected devices. Samsung Flow allows you to seamlessly sync with your Samsung smartphone or Gear wearable. A Kids Mode offers family-safe features for young users.

The preloaded PenUp app is a great way to explore what users all around the world are drawing or colouring into. In our time with the tablet, PenUp was our most frequented app, with hundreds of designs on offer to colour or sketch. The drawing tool offers a plethora of options to choose from - sketch pens, markers, paint brushes, pencils, etc. The level of accuracy is commendable and we almost never had to deal with input that wasn't intended.

Verdict The Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 could be a good companion for your multimedia and artistic needs. It has a great display, stellar audio powered by AKG, good battery life, and a sleek design. It is significantly less expensive than the iPad Pro (2018), and comes with a bundled S-Pen. However, the DeX mode isn't quite up to notebook-level functionality, and the outdated specifications remain a hindrance to intensive usage. The Galaxy Tab S4, once again, is neither a smartphone killer nor a laptop replacement, but fits quite neatly between the two categories as a device meant purely for fulfilling your entertainment needs.

You could buy yourself the Galaxy Tab S4 if you are willing to splurge Rs. 57,900.

You know that new mobile joy? Well, I have it, in the form of the fabulous Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus, and I seriously can’t stop gushing about it. This is my sixth Samsung mobile in a row, I have had the Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom, you know the one with the phone morphed on the back of a zoom camera, the Note 3, the one with the pencil, the sleek Samsung S5 that came with all the fitness gadgets, the Samsung S6, a more performance packed version of the S5, and then the Samsung S6 Edge, like the 6 but with a curved edge, and now with the S8 Plus, with its giant 6.2-inch display it has me falling in love with the Galaxy series all over again, as I’m all for bigger and better.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus – Design

For some, the size might be a big no, for some, but don’t worry you can go for the slightly slimmer S8, but if like me you are a lover of a big phone, you can’t get any prettier than this curved, ultrasleek beauty. Once upon a time, big meant bulky, but even with its larger size, its curved screen makes it feel compact in your hand, it is kind of moulded that way, and it is still thinning than most other mobiles I’ve ever used, even with a case on.

But this is a mobile that maximises every little bit of its larger size thanks to its ‘Infinity Display’, with all of the screen useful as Samsung has gotten rid of the buttons at the bottom, the home button is now embedded under the screen, meaning more room for its clear, larger display, a whopping 18.5:9 display ratio, which means that it is great when taking and editing pictures, watching catch-up TV and even writing emails. Oh, and did I add that it’s all in crystal clear HD, seriously this display has the best colour and clarity of any smartphone I’ve ever had.

The powerful and speedy processor also helps, I’m one of those people that loves having lots of apps and internet tabs open all at once, and I’ve never had an issue with speed, or my phone just crashing, which sadly used to happen with older models.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus – Camera

Come on, we all care about design and battery life but if the camera isn’t any good what’s the point? Well, don’t worry this smartphone really has an incredibly smart autofocus front camera and 12MP F1.7 Dual Pixel rear camera, which with that aperture lets in lots of light and detail so is great for low-light, zoom and anti-blur photos.

Samsung cameras have always been impressive but this one compared to the previous smartphone is awesome and there are so many cool features I love. First off, the dual-pixel phase detection autofocus, which I have used at catwalk shows as you hit the model and it tracks her down the catwalk for great images. It also has the best selfie feature ever, a floating camera button, which means you can reach the button to snap the picture anywhere on the screen, and there is a setting to take multiple shots, which allows you to combine them into one high-quality photo, so you always get the shot you want. There is also this nifty selective focus mode, which gives you all kind of blur and depth of field that us fashion bloggers love, plus, what’s even better is that you can choose the depth of field after taking the shot to choose whichever focus you fancy: foreground, background, or both.

Oh, and if the camera wasn’t good enough, it is also jam-packed with enhanced image processing, including a special ‘food’ setting, fun hyperlapse capabilities, tons of cool Instagram-ready filters, as well as Pro controls very much like your DSLR, meaning you can change your ISO, shutter speed, exposure, colour tone, manual focus, and white balance. What I also love is that you can save your pics as RAW files so you can do extra fancy editing on them, not that you really need to as it is as good as most point-and-shoot compact cameras on the market.

For a bit of fun, the Samsung also has lots of Snapchat-inspired faces, so you can be a rabbit or a sheep, or even add stickers to your images or add music such as Happy Birthday to a picture.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus – Battery

I’ve always found Samsung to have excellent battery life, especially compared to my iPhone friends, I’m never the one down to my last 10% of juice on a long day over fashion week, and the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus is better than ever. I think it has a lot to do with the auto brightness tracker, which really does stop your battery being drained by the screen display, and it also helps to quickly optimise your screen in sunny conditions.

It also has that super-fast charging like with the S6 and S7, which FYI is a life-saver as I can plug-in on my 34-minute train journey home and it is fully charged again. Also, a crazy thing to love, the new USB Type-C charging point means there’s no up or down, the connector is the same on both sides, so no fiddling it in to get your charge started. Something so silly, but it used to always annoying the hell out me.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus – Security

We all know that security is important, we store so much on our phones, and the S8 Plus is built on Samsung Knox, a defence-grade security platform, which FYI, I don’t know how it actually works, just that it does, and that’s all that matters right? Oh, and for extra security, it also has biometric technologies including a fingerprint scanner, iris scanner and facial recognition – yep, you can unlock your screen by showing your face. Fancy as hell.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus – Music

We all know that our smartphones are much more than calls, Whatapp and social, they are also our music hubs, and the audio is incredible, helped by the amazing earphones you get free with the phone. Plus it comes with Google Play Music and for Samsung customers you can upload and store up to 100,000 tracks to the service’s cloud locker, making them available to stream from anywhere.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus – Bixby

OK, so you are probably wondering who or what the hell Bixby is, well, it’s like Samsung’s personal assistant, or will be when we finally get all the settings. Currently, it has just been operated by text, but I’ve been told that in time it will you will be able to use voice, text, or touch to say what you need and it will assist you, whether that’s to do with your schedule, making a call, answering a text, searching something on the internet or even open your camera. Also, Bixby is a smart cookie, apparently she will learn your ways. I say she as Bixby has a female voice.

Update: I’ve had an update and now my Bixby can take voice commands. It takes a little learning, don’t think she got my Northern accent, but she is finally coming around to opening the camera, calling my husband, as well as taking me through my schedule. I basically think the more you use it the better it will be.

What do made-for-AI processors really do?

Tech's biggest players have fully embraced the AI revolution. Apple, Qualcomm and Huawei have made mobile chipsets that are designed to better tackle machine learning tasks, each with a slightly different approach. Huawei launched its Kirin 970 at IFA this year, calling it the first chipset with a dedicated neural processing unit (NPU). Then, Apple unveiled the A11 Bionic chip, which powers the iPhone 8, 8 Plus and X. The A11 Bionic features a neural engine that the company says is "purpose-built for machine learning," among other things.

Last week, Qualcomm announced the Snapdragon 845, which sends AI tasks to the most suitable cores. There's not a lot of difference between the three company's approaches -- it ultimately boils down to the level of access each company offers to developers, and how much power each setup consumes.

Before we get into that though, let's figure out if an AI chip is really all that much different from existing CPUs. A term you'll hear a lot in the industry with reference to AI lately is "heterogeneous computing." It refers to systems that use multiple types of processors, each with specialized functions, to gain performance or save energy. The idea isn't new -- plenty of existing chipsets use it -- the three new offerings in question just employ the concept to varying degrees.

The Snapdragon 845.

Smartphone CPUs from the last three years or so have used ARM's big.LITTLE architecture, which pairs relatively slower, energy-saving cores with faster, power-draining ones. The main goal is to use as little power as possible, to get better battery life. Some of the first phones using such architecture include the Samsung Galaxy S4 with the company's own Exynos 5 chip, as well as Huawei's Mate 8 and Honor 6.

This year's "AI chips" take this concept a step further by either adding a new dedicated component to execute machine-learning tasks, or, in the case of the Snapdragon 845, using other low-power cores to do so. For instance, the Snapdragon 845 can tap its digital signal processor (DSP) to tackle long-running tasks that require a lot of repetitive math, like listening out for a hotword. Activities like image recognition, on the other hand, are better managed by the GPU, Qualcomm's director of product management Gary Brotman told Engadget. Brotman heads up AI and machine learning for the Snapdragon platform.

Meanwhile, Apple's A11 Bionic uses a neural engine in its GPU to speed up Face ID, Animoji and some third-party apps. That means when you fire up those processes on your iPhone X, the A11 turns on the neural engine to carry out the calculations needed to either verify who you are or map your facial expressions onto talking poop.

On the Kirin 970, the NPU takes over tasks like scanning and translating words in pictures taken with Microsoft's Translator, which is the only third-party app so far to have been optimized for this chipset. Huawei said its "HiAI" heterogeneous computing structure maximizes the performance of most of the components on its chipset, so it may be assigning AI tasks to more than just the NPU.

Differences aside, this new architecture means that machine learning computations, which used to be processed in the cloud, can now be carried out more efficiently on a device. By using parts other than the CPU to run AI tasks, your phone can do more things simultaneously, so you are less likely to encounter lag when waiting for a translation or finding a picture of your dog.

Plus, running these processes on your phone instead of sending them to the cloud is also better for your privacy, since you reduce the potential opportunities for hackers to get at your data.

The A11 Bionic's two "performance" cores and four "efficiency" cores.

Another big advantage of these AI chips is energy savings. Power is a precious resource that needs to be allocated judiciously, since some of these actions can be repeated all day. The GPU tends to suck more juice, so if it's something the more energy efficient DSP can perform with similar results, then it's better to tap the latter.

To be clear, it's not the chipsets themselves that decide which cores to use when executing certain tasks. "Today, it's up to developers or OEMs where they want to run it," Brotman said. Programmers can use supported libraries like Google's TensorFlow (or more specifically its Lite mobile version) to dictate on which cores to run their models. Qualcomm, Huawei and Apple all work with the most popular options like TensorFlow Lite and Facebook's Caffe2. Qualcomm also supports the newer Open Neural Networks Exchange (ONNX), while Apple adds compatibility for even more machine learning models via its Core ML framework.

So far, none of these chips have delivered very noticeable real-world benefits. Chip makers will tout their own test results and benchmarks that are ultimately meaningless until AI processes become a more significant part of our daily lives. We're in the early stages of on-device machine learning being implemented, and developers who have made use of the new hardware are few and far between.

Right now, though, it's clear that the race is on to make carrying out machine learning-related tasks on your device much faster and more power-efficient. We'll just have to wait awhile longer to see the real benefits of this pivot to AI.
