Hi,
I am new and would like to have some advise.
Background information.
1) First tablet Nexus 7 2013 (died on me 2 weeks ago and it is to pricey to have it repaired) I was very happy with this tablet and never had big problems. Only last time before it died it had several times overheating chip and i suspect the gaming wb gods of injustice was fault of that. Play that a lot and long time especially during weekends.
2) Looking for an upgrade and Samsung Galaxy Tab s 8.4 seems good for what I need.
3) I am not technical.
4) I look for 3gb rAM memory tablet mainly for the gaming experience and for watching movies more smoother.
What I used my tablet mainly for.
a) Gaming two main games: WB Gods of Injustice and WB Mortal Combat
b) movies. Watching hd movies (put them on the tablet and after that remove them again), Netflix, youtube, videos from web sites.
c) Surfing the net on google chrome browser.
d) checking e-mails (yahoo and gmail)
e) viber (very important), skype, fb messenger.
f) occassional photo taking for sharing on FB and Instagram.
I read a mix of customers reviews from raving positive to very disappointing.
My doubts:
1) Apps run sometimes laggy. Or start up slower
2) Batter-life. 50 /50 say positive others negative. Other say again after "some tweaking" and what tweaking they do not say. The battery life is ok
3) Bloat ware (not a huge problem but might become a bit of annoyance) after warranty time it can be rooted (who could help) anyway and the bloatware removed.
4) I read that someone gets unwanted Samsung ads on apps not from samsung itself when starting those apps that are not from samsung. Is this true and can that be fixed?
5) Warranty and customer service. I read worrying customers reviews that even when a tablet is in warranty the customer service does not repair or replace the tablet.
Screen is a plus but not necessary a must. I was happy with the quality of the nexus 7 2013 for my movie time. I watch it as well in bed. But need a sleep timer so that the tablet turns itself off after a set of time. Do not know where to find this and also no app seems to exist for that but would be great when it does. Can you help?
I read both positive customers news of the tablet after lollipop update that it runs more smoother and some even say it runs even worse.
What is your experience with this tablet? Should I buy this one. Or is there another option that I am not aware off.
Should I wait for the tablet s2 8.0 just recently announced?
Thank you.
