I am quite happy with my 8.0 so far. I too have noticed very good battery life compared to the Tab Pro 8.4. Must be how it handles standby time. Mine has been off the charger for about 5-1/2 hours. Used it today for reading emails, downloading and viewing photos, Facebook etc. and it is at 93%. The transfer of apps and data from my prior Tab was seemless and the best experience I have had yet.
