Galaxy Tab S5e After about 3 months review

By the time Galaxy Tab S4 was released half a year ago, an unusual product was released.

Considering that the Samsung Flagship tablet has a new product launch date of 18 months, it was unexpected.

Fortunately, the "e" model was released first, not the home model.

The front has a 10.5-inch S-AMOLED panel with a resolution of 2560x1600.

Compared to the Galaxy Tab S4 (hereafter S4) using the same panel, the bezel is smaller.

The display is, of course, very good.

Unlike S4, there is rounding, which I will explain later.

The iris sensor is removed and can be unlocked by facial recognition and fingerprint recognition.

There is an illuminance sensor around 8 o'clock in the photograph, and it is a place without considerable sense.

As the photograph is in the horizontal direction, when the left hand is grasped, the illuminance sensor is inevitably concealed,

When you set the brightness automatically, the screen will darken.

It's not a company that once or twice made a tablet, but it's pretty questionable about doing this basic mistake.

For the same reason, Wi-Fi desk grips also occur.

All buttons are on the right.

Like S10e, side-mount fingerprint recognition is adopted,

The speed of fingerprint recognition is good. It is a very inconvenient place to use.

It just does not work well. It is safe to assume that iris recognition has fallen into place,

Actual usability is judged to be both there.

One disappointing thing to note is that the fingerprint gesture feature is missing.

Test mode inquiry result If you see that the function is missing even though it is the same part as S10e

I can not explain it because I purposely blocked it.

The rear is a design I saw many times. Honestly, this is ...

'Sound by AKG' is now a name.

We did not prepare the data separately due to the absence of the measuring equipment, but the quality of the speaker has improved considerably.

Output, and sound are much better than the previous tab S4,

Now I feel I can get a little bit of iPad Pro.

Especially since I've been using Tab S3, even though it's the quad speaker of the same AKG tuning

It offers a level of unparalleled quality. At least there is no part of the speaker to be criticized.

There is a main camera of 13MP. There is no LED flash like a cheap model.

For reference, the QC issue of tap S5e (hereinafter referred to as S5e) is already infamous.

I do not think I should just use it to rip and rearrange ....

On the tablet, the camera is almost decorative, so I also put in my hand the person who wrote it.

Since the device is thin, it is also somewhat level.

S5e is very thin. It is 5.5mm thinner than iPad Pro, which is bending and bouncing.

The next device is Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition, 7.9mm.

In addition, it is lighter than thin. It is the lightest weight of 400g of the equipments.

This is a more intuitive picture.

The device on the right is Galaxy Note 9, 8.8mm.

There is a C type terminal at the bottom, and there is nothing. Yes. That's right.

This is the first device to remove the earphone jack from the Samsung Tablet.

If you remove it to make an ultra thin thickness of 5.5mm, you can understand it. I do not like it.

Thanks to that, Samsung has achieved the first USB-C to 3.5mm cable.

Note that the cable did not work on the S10e.

Maybe it will be different if you attach it to the A9 Pro without earphone jack or the fold that will come out later.

Fortunately, the Galaxy Wearable App, which was not available all the time, has been working on Samsung Tablet recently.

Of course, to a very limited extent, you can only connect two devices, Gear Icons X and Galaxy Buzz.

It is advantageous that there is no need for new pairing because it is possible to switch between Samsung devices.

It is the first model of Samsung Tablet with one UI. There are many firsts.

  • DeX shortcuts of homerun are to be taken out randomly.

Not originally.

AIDA 64 allows you to view key specifications.

What is strange is that this model is equipped with Snapdragon 670,

It is represented by Snapdragon 710 like GeekBench or Bon app.

It is a model that does not have any difference between 670 or 710 anyway, but it feels good.

The RAM is different depending on capacity and offers up to 6GB of RAM.

And the product code name is gts4lv (wifi / lte) xx.

This is the most interesting part. Codename is a way to know how a product is planned,

In this section you need to look at the code names of previous works.

Tab S2: gts2

Tab S3: gts3l

Tab S4: gts4l

In other words, S5e is originally planned to be a subordinate product of Tab S4.

The suffix v is likely to mean the Value Edition that came out of tab S2.

At first, it was planned as Tab S4 Value Edition, but it was released as S5e .. It can reasonably be reasoned.

The next one is the One UI, which is not much different from a mobile phone.

So, let's take a quick look at the apps that offer 'tablet view'.

The Clock app shows more information on one screen.

Actually, I did not look like that in a quad split view, but I compiled the submenus into one picture and edited them.

However, stopwatches and timers seem to feel too much.

The calculator also has the advantage of screen size that engineering symbols are spread out by default.

The Messaging app and the Contacts app are unusual, with a two-tier view by default.

If you click on the item on the left, it will expand to the right like the picture.

Also, if you touch the dividing line between the sides of the screen,

The left and right space can be adjusted flexibly.

Of course, the maximum limit of space adjustment is fixed, you can not get rid of it by pushing one side at all.

The Samsung Browser also provides a UI tailored to the tablet.

Other features include StandAlone DeX.

It was first installed in S4, and S5e is the second one.

It looks like a core feature that will only be included in the 'Tabs S' series, as seen in the recently released Tab A.

There are two ways to run StandAlone DeX.

You can enter the setting as shown in the picture and turn it on, or press Samsung DeX on the Quick Panel.

It would be nice to remove it with a single icon. (You can use it as you like at the top of the article.

DeX home screen designed in one UI is welcomed.

The office also has a fairly good usability when using the keyboard.

In DeX mode, lock screen and background screen can be specified separately.

But like the photo, on the lock screen, the position of the clock and pattern design is fixed to the right

You need to invest some time to get a good background.

It is a coincidental feature, but in DeX mode, the Samsung browser

Like the photo above, you have the ability to instantly assign a specific photo to your profile photo or wallpaper.

This function is not available in mobile mode.

Next, the ball feature is Currency & Character Continuity (CMC).

It would be nice if you could translate it, but this menu is quite English because it is English.

Likewise, it is the first feature that appeared in S5e, and it is the same as iOS continuity function.

This function allows you to use your phone's phone and messages in the same way on your tablet.

In other words, even the model with CMC function is Wi-Fi model, there is phone and message app.

After signing into the same Samsung account, the feature is paired with the active screen.

I have connected two or three times to see if there is a bug in the function.

Once you've finished pairing, you can see the phone screen on both sides of the call.

The letters are also coming in at the same time, not only reception, but also outgoing from S5e.

However, the tablet has always been, but you can only make calls with your speakerphone or earphones.

This feature is only available on newer Wi-Fi models, including tabs S5e, S4 (9.0 Pie).

The LTE model is expected to support future updates.

Support for smartphones has also been gradually expanding.

S5e does not support Bixbee Voice.

In official video, it should not be promoted tremendously as 'tablet that supports BigSvoice'.

However, it is available when system is ready and APK is installed.

As you can see in the photo, UX is also set to tablet.

That is to say, it is only necessary to release it.

Note that the power button recall function for that picture is not applicable. There are no related items in the settings.

The rounded display mentioned in the first part of the review is actually software.

I adjusted the picture artificially to make the filter visible. It can be seen with the naked eye.

The benchmark score is roughly at this level.

Naturally, the performance is lower than that of the Galaxy Tab S4 (Snapdragon 835)

Snapdragon 670 is said to be an intermediate grade
