Question. ...shh would i worry about knox if rooting it in the first place will trip it
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emtownsend:
In my opinion, Knox is only valuable if you are working within a government entity or other work place that is concerned with secure devices. I believe it was put there for various reasons that include allowing Samsung to know if a device was messed with and more importantly so Samsung could get government secure device certification and can thus sell to governments around the globe.

For the average person, I don't think it matters. I believe a strong argument can still be made that rooting your phone does not void warranties despite what the manufacturer tells you. If the hardware is bad, it is bad and covered. But, if you mess it up by rooting and cause a software brick, then they would likely make you fix your own phone because it is not hardware related.

So.... I don't ever worry about Knox (on my previous Samsung devices), but maybe that is just me. I simply want full control of my software experience.

Late edit: I was reading a posting by Chainfire about rooting the S6 and he mentioned that an untripped Knox might be necessary if you want to use phone based payments. One other consideration...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] LordLoss:
I was at basic training and my family changed my data plan from unlimited to limited.... So I've decided to switch to Tmobile.

I was wondering what features/ problems I will have if I switched carriers?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] ILuvRice:
I would first ensure that tmobile will offer you the coverage you need. Are you active duty or guard? If active, then you should consider who the better carrier is where your stationed
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] slimc84:
T-Mobile will pay your ETF if you switch and port your number. Of course, you will have to pay the ETF and will receive a gift card for the amount of the ETF. Check the coverage and ensure that T-Mobile is going to have signal where you are going to be stationed. Their coverage nationwide is pretty spotty when compared to AT&T and Verizon so just ensure that you are going to have coverage, or switching will not do you any good.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jab74101:
Being an active duty soldier. I would stick to AT&T or Verizon. Especially if you go to the field alot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] madmike23:
Besides coverage (like others have said), you do have to get your phone unlocked. To get it done free, call AT&T and have them unlock it. May take a couple days, then do the switch. I've done the switch, reception has be fine throughout CA and NV. A couple spotty areas while driving to Vegas (it is a desert...), but once there, it was good.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Maduro78:
It took longer than I thought it would considering its Samsung but I read an article announcing their working on a second generation of the tab s. There wasn't much info nor were there any specs so I didn't post the link. Hopefully this one will fix all the minor issues. Considering what the original was this new one should be the top dog for awhile. Has anyone heard any other info?

[Galaxy Tab S General] Zamboney:
They're gonna be 4:3 ratio which sucks for media.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Itchiee:
Sigh, please be a rumor with this 4:3 crap! What are we reverting to a simpler time?

Grrrrrrrr!
[Galaxy Tab S General] barth2:
4:3 is very good for everything else besides watching movies, but I guess if you use your tablet for watching movies mostly then yeah it's going to suck.

What I want is better speakers (probably not gonna happen) and I want less air gap between the glass and screen to make the screen look even better.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Maduro78:
Better speakers would definitely be nice but I'm not sure how good they'd be in a slim casing. New tab will most likely get the toned down tw. I couldn't wait to root and get rid of tw, its the #1 that keeps me away from Samsung phones. I love the note 4...

[Galaxy Tab S General] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Im pretty sure its going to have the new exynos chip. Like the ones made in korea that had a tad newer chip then the ones we have now. And probably a fix on the overheating issue.
[Galaxy Tab S General] sweetandsoursauce:
+1 on the over heat issues, been having it all day(playing hearthstone)
[Galaxy Tab S General] bonerp:
I'm very happy with my 10.5 and looking forward to 5.0.1. It helped reduce lag on my note 4 considerably - its virtually non existent now, and the battery life is better so I can't wait to receive it on my current tab s - hoping it will kill the lag. I don't think I'll upgrade this time round to be honest. It all works well (side sync and throw to my samsung UHD TV works a treat).
[Galaxy Tab S General] Itchiee:
Ok, perhaps it would be a change of pace having a smaller screen but.... I really hope they offer this tablet in 32 or 64gb (128, yeah right) this time and kill 16gb once and for all.

No tablet should have 16gb in 2015. I paid extra to buy the 32gb 10.5S just on principle.

Here are some leaked specs....rumored.

http://www.sammobile.com/2015/02/19...y-tab-s-2-8-inch-and-9-7-inch-specifications/
[Galaxy Tab S General] GeorgeP:
I think 4:3 would be an improvement. As some others have said, 16:10 is good for movies. For everything else 4:3 is better.
[Galaxy Tab S General] episode96:
I think I'd actually prefer 3:2, but either that or 4:3 would make me upgrade from my Tab Pro 10.1. I can't really get used to 16:10, it only feels right when watching movies.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Digital Man:
I felt the same way. I would absolutely positively never use a device with 4:3 aspect ratio.

Then I got a nexus 9. Figured I would hate it. But I found that movies were actually fine on it. It is more a psychological thing about unused screen space I think, because I found it no more distracting than 2.35:1 aspect ratio on 16:9.

But what made me really love it was having books, magazines, textbooks and comic books fill the screen completely. Very comfortable if one does a lot of reading.

And the strangest thing: I found myself surfing the web in portrait! Caught myself one day... though...whoa...when did I start doing that? Didn't even think about it. Its strange but 4:3 makes a web page feel like you are reading a book.

As a disclaimer, before someone gets on my case for daring to mention the nexus 9 on a Tab S forum: I own a Tab S 8.4 and a Tab S 10.5 so I do have a basis for comparison.

And for what its worth, I still watch most movies on the Tab S because the Amoled screen is unparalleled for movie watching.

A new 4:3 Tab S with Amoled I think I would be a remarkably versatile tablet and in retrospect I think I would be fine with the idea.
[Galaxy Tab S General] toyanucci:
I disagree. Tablets are more for media consumption than anything else and 16:9 is the standard so anything closer to that would be better for me. I owned ipads and would upgrade every year up until the ipad air with I owned for a week and returned it. The black bars watching movies made the 9.7" screen feel a little bigger than my note 3! Switched to a note 10.1 2014 and it was so much more immersive because the video occupied more of the screen. On flights all the ipad people I sit beside usually ask about my tablet and the fact that the video looks so much bigger on my device than theirs, so I'm hoping the new device will be 16:10 and include an SPen, as it is so much more useful on a tablet than on a note device.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Shriker:
Regarding comics, the resolution used by Comixology digital comics is 1988 x 3056 which is quite a bit closer to 16:10 than 4:3.
[Galaxy Tab S General] barth2:
The thing with movies is depends on the software you can just zoom in and fill up the screen. Sure you are not getting the whole movie frame and not seeing the movie as the director intended, but nobody intended you to watch their movies on a little phone or tablet either [emoji20]

on the other hand, with non movies stuff things feel more proportional on a 4:3 screen. If you're browsing the web, in landscape you have wide space horizontally that may be unused and at the same time you see less of a page vertically and have to scroll down more to read. In portrait it's too narrow and text maybe too small.

With apps like Gmail or tapatalk where you have a split pane in landscape mode, again it is too wide horizontally so the space is a bit wasted but too short vertically so you see fewer messages. In portrait mode, split pane is just too narrow and awkward so they end up using a pull out drawer design instead. Thus you have basically turned your tablet into a giant phone. Take the on screen keyboard. On the 4:3 screen, it has roughly square keys like a real keyboard, as opposed to rectangular keys like the infamous chiclet keyboard on the IBM junior. (In dating myself lol)

When I moved from iPad to android tablet first thing I noticed was most apps are just phone apps on a big screen and not really taking advantage of a large screen. I think 16:10 has something to do with it. If you look at lollipop, Google didn't even bother to do anything different on tablet. The settings app for example doesn't even fill up the screen.

Of course a great deal depends on your use mix, but I think some people just reflexively hate 4:3 because Apple uses it and they haven't had much experience with it.
[Galaxy Tab S General] rp3:
I'm going yikes at the choice of the 5433. My feeling was always that we got shortchanged in getting a 5420 after SGS5 released with a newer version. I can see myself passing to wait for a Snapdragon 810/Exynos 7420 processor so that my tablet is not outclassed by my phone.

As to the 4:3 vs 16:9, I'll try anything once. Sadly, post Nexus 9, I can see a world where 16:9 tablets cease to exist (apple has a majority of the tablet market in the 4:3 factor so other than Google's insistance, as a competitor, that's the way the world will work.

I got a Dell Venue 7840 (because I will try anything once). I can feel the speed bump. It doesn't impress me otherwise relative to the Tab S (screen is same to slightly worse, dimensions are within 10% on thickness and 2% of length/width and it weighs more. Post having that and playing at the store with a Nexus 9, I feel like samsung could take the tab s, do nothing but replace the processor and have a 2015 flagship.
[Galaxy Tab S General] corvus.corax:
My concern is that the rumor mill says the battery will be only 3800mah. My T705 has 4600. Battery efficiencies are always improving, so Samsung should be striving for as big a battery as possible, not just rely on newer chips and a lower resolution screen to save power. Better, bigger batteries are super important for all mobile devices. Just getting by is a mistake. Do you get that Samsung?
[Galaxy Tab S General] rklrkl:
I sure am hoping the Tab S 2 leaked specs are indeed just made up for clickbait! The screen - the one outstanding feature of the original Tab S and the main reason people (inc. me) bought it - sounds like it will be far worse. It will be shrunk, have a worse resolution and a 100% media-hostile 4:3 aspect ratio.

Having used my Tab S (with CyanogenMod of course) for a while now, I'm convinced that the quality of the screen is the most important aspect of a tablet (far more so than CPU/GPU/RAM specs) and if Samsung make the screen worse like the leaks claim, then they're not onto a winner in my books.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Maduro78:
I've learned not to pay leaks any mind especially when it comes to samsung. They've hurt a lot of feelings over the years with expectations. They know they hit a hr with the tab s display it would be a shame and a death sentence to lose a products main feature.

[Galaxy Tab S General] Maduro78:
Its supposed to be a lot thinner than the current model not sure thats a good or bad thing. Battery life will definitely take a hit if that's the case

Lollipop is coming! Exclusive Preview - Android 5.0.2 Lollipop on Samsung Galaxy Tab S series: http://youtu.be/yf1vCbtuZ3Q
[Galaxy Tab S General] barth2:
Ugh they made everything whiter and brighter. My eyes will not be happy.
[Galaxy Tab S General] episode96:
sammobile reports the Tab S2 will be announced in June. Makes sense, given that it's been almost one year since the original Tab S was released.
[Galaxy Tab S General] 3DSammy:
Saw that announcement and confirmation of a 4:3 aspect ratio. I'm currently using a Nexus 10 with plans to refresh March 2016 but with this announcement I'll be buying the current Tab S 10.5 just so I can avoid the 4:3 aspect ratio. A relative had me set up their Tab S 10.5 when they first came out so I know how superior to IPS the AMOLED screen is.

It's going to kill me to miss the upgraded CPU and faster internal storage but my Nexus 10 on Lollipop 5.1.1 is fast enough for anything I do (not a gamer) and the 16:10 screen aspect ratio fits with my tablet's priority for media consumption (Netflix, Youtube, media server ... etc).
[Galaxy Tab S General] xRevilatioNx:
If anyone finds any leaked information on the next generation device, please post ? ?
[Galaxy Tab S General] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
I found some more info.http://androidcommunity.com/new-samsung-galaxy-tab-s2-to-be-unveiled-this-coming-june-20150505/

"The Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 is also believed to have a new 4:3 aspect ratio. It's going to be a high-end tablet and four variants will be available: WiFi and WiFi + LTE of the Galaxy Tab S2 8.0 and 9.7. All these tablets are expected to be unveiled in June and will be available in major markets like Korea, Hong Kong, India, China, Canada, US, Latin America, and Europe."

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 will feature a metal body. Inside, we'll find a Super AMOLED display (8-inch and 9.7-inch), 2048 x 1536 pixel resolution, 3GB RAM, 32GB built-in memory, 64-bit Exynos processor, microSD card slot, 8MP main camera, 2.1MP rear-facing camera, and Android 5.0.2 Lollipop. The LTE versions will use the Cat. 6 LTE (300Mbps) modem by Samsung.

As for the dimensions, the 9.7-inch model measures 237.1 × 168.8 × 5.4 mm while the 8-incher is 198.2 × 134.5 × 5.4 mm. Both Galaxy Tab S2's will be light at 260 grams and 407 grams only."

-DUHA
[Galaxy Tab S General] jayochs:
yeah, that 4:3 ratio is GARBAGE. can't believe samsung is following apple's crap trend.

i'll stick to my OG tab S.
[Galaxy Tab S General] efanatic:
The new 4.3 ratio is the only reason I will not buy the new tab s2. Put faster/better internals iny 8.4 with more internal storage and they would have sold me. I would buy that tomorrow
[Galaxy Tab S General] deepen915:
Hopefully it's a gorgeous full glass design like the S6! Samsung has promised to extend that kind of build quality across it's flagship devices.
[Galaxy Tab S General] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
I don't think so Idk. I believe samsung is going to do it like the Tab A (iPad likeish). Like come on now 9.7 and 8.0inch screens? Originally I belive samsung wanted the first Gen of the Tab S to be like the s5 but in a tablet. Now I don't know what samsung is up to.

---------- Post added at 04:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:13 AM ----------

Yep! My 10.5incher Tab S is way better than that screen crap on the Tab S2. I wonder if the Tab S2 will get any thinner...
[Galaxy Tab S General] episode96:
Well, I'm actually looking forward to it. As others have already mentioned, I find 4:3 much better for browsing and reading, and much more natural in portrait mode. As for videos, 4:3 makes you lose about one inch of actual screen space, maybe? I can live with that:

(Nexus 10 on the left, iPad 9.7 on the right)

Samsung has never been shy about flooding the market. Perhaps they should release the exact same tablet in the two different form factors to make everyone happy :P
[Galaxy Tab S General] 3DSammy:
Well I put my money where my mouth is and bought a Tab S 10.5 yesterday after finding them on sale at Staples for $450 Canadian with free shipping (sale lasts until May. 12th). Sure I could have waited until retailers or ebay tries to clear inventory in June but who knows if I would get the model I wanted. Plus $70 off the retail price is not too shabby as it paid for almost all the taxes and an inexpensive mSD card.

Still breaks my heart though to buy last generation technology and for that matter leaving the Nexus program as I'm running Lollipop v5.1.1 on my rooted Nexus 10 without concern for loosing my warranty (yes that had expired). Not being rooted will be like dieting as I'm not too sure how long I have the will to hold out.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Bushcrafter:
Congrats on the purchase of the tab s. I love mine to death! As for the new one coming out in June, 4:3 killed it for me.Therefore its a no go for me.:(
[Galaxy Tab S General] barth2:
Let's come back to this thread in a year and see how many of these 4:3 haters caved and bought one :)
[Galaxy Tab S General] LakersDroid:
I heard it will have 4:3 aspect ratio, newer and better Exynos chip, and 2048x1536 Super AMOLED screen resolution (downgrade), their sizes are 8 inch for the smaller version and 9.7 inch for the bigger version.
[Galaxy Tab S General] efanatic:
If they would have just updated the 8.4 with more internal storage and better/faster internals I would have been sold. I will not be upgrading/downgrading to the new one. If I wanted a new iPad I would have bought one ( I sold my old iPad 2 and 4s for a reason)

I was so excited about the being able to get the s6 when it arrived but after seeing it and seeing that they took away the SD card option and battery option I didn't buy it. Samsung you are going to lose a faithful customer. I don't want an iPhone or iPad with TouchWiz.
[Galaxy Tab S General] TonyBigs:
Since the 4:3 background will be black (rather than an IPS purple-ish black gray), 4:3 is OK for me.
[Galaxy Tab S General] DAvid_B:
the current 10.5 does what I want. And 4:3 means I will probably never replace it..
[Galaxy Tab S General] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Here's an leaked image I've found. Though this may be fake or something, samsung seems to be following iPad designs.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Restorer:
Yeah, me too.

I view a lot of video on my tablet (doesn't everybody?) and don't want it reduced to half the screen area or (worse still) have the sides chopped off. Why are they doing this???? Just cos Apple always have?

IMO pages of text are just as easy to read in landscape on 16:10 displays as they are in portrait on 4:3 ones. Google doing this on the N9 was the main reason I went for Tab S in the first place and now Samsung are taking away my upgrade option :(.
[Galaxy Tab S General] burt_ie:
Well seeing as I only just bought my Tab S 10.5 I don't think I'll be upgrading anytime soon.

Besides I hate 4:3 ratio on a tablet, it was one of the reasons I didn't go for a Nexus 9.
[Galaxy Tab S General] 3DSammy:
A number of ereader apps take advantage of a 16:10 tablet by showing two side by side pages just like a physical book while news readers such as Appy Geek or FlipBoard present article summaries that takes advantage of the entire screen but show the detailed article with black bars to the left and right when in landscape view. While using an Office like word processor and a keyboard you get the advantage of a laptop like screen and larger left to right space.

The biggest obvious drawback of 4:3 is when watching video content so this debate is mostly about your personal use case. I find the arguments get more murky when it comes to productivity arguments especially with or without a keyboard case. Only a few tablets have a screen that include a high quality stylus and the software for reliable hand writing recognition. That combo lends itself far more to the office productivity and a 4:3 aspect ratio.
[Galaxy Tab S General] xRevilatioNx:
Hope to hear more about this device soon
[Galaxy Tab S General] UpInTheAir:
I would seriously consider a new 8" Tab S2 SM-T715 IF it arrives with Exynos

7420

and 64 bit support. Why not the newest SoC ..... The other tab I'm considering is the Sony Xperia Tablet Z4, but the wide bezels are a real negative for me.

Apart from root, first thing I would do is build a SkyHigh kernel :) Of course, time permitting ;)
[Galaxy Tab S General] Akopps:
The way I see it, 4:3 works best for productivity apps, ebooks, web browsing, etc. The biggest reason for wide-screen LCDs is movies. I think it would have been smart for Samsung to keep the 10.5 inch model, which is too bulky to be used as an ebook reader or casual web surfboard, with wide screen, but convert the 8 inch tablet to 4x3 aspect ratio.
[Galaxy Tab S General] barth2:
I hope they give us better speakers so I don't have to use Bluetooth speaker for podcast and audio books. One less thing to carry around and keep charged.

And upgrade the underpowered cpu/gpu.

Actually what I want is the Nvidia shield with bigger OLED screen.
