Received the Tab S11 Ultra early Wed morning. Initially at about 75% charge, I fully charged it before setup. Smart Switch from my Tab S9+ was flawless. Only issue I had was setting up face recognition to unlock failed to register; had to resort to fingerprint only. Will try again to register facial in different light.
The tab is certainly a difference in size from what I had been using? ( Tab S7+, S8+, S9+. Skipped the S10+.) But the thinner chassis keeps the weight pretty close to the feel of the S9+. I do NOT like the side mount for the SPen. When I hold the S11 Ultra in portrait, I knocked the SPen loose several times. Afraid the SPen is likely doomed for who-knows-where unless I can figure out a better way to secure it.
I took advantage of the discounts to get the slim keyboard cover. Had the same cover for my S9+ but even if the size were the same, updating still required -- connector pins on the S11 Ultra are now on the back, not on the side. Cover has a small flap that automatically snaps up to connect when the Tab is placed in typing position. All worked perfectly the first time.
Overall performance: The S11Ultra feels smoother and snappier than did my S9+. I did find myself grabbing the SPen and using it rather than fingertip touch to navigate screens. Will see if that continues.
Overall, quite pleased with the Tab S11 Ultra.
