Build and Screen

Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 flaunts an awesomely slim design, measuring just 5.6 millimetres in thickness – thinner than the ultra-slim iPad Air 2. It has a plastic chassis accentuated with a metal frame, which probably explains why it weighs significantly less than the iPad with an all-metal body.

Performance and OS

A capable octa-core Exynos 5433 processor runs the show on Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7. This 64-bit chip delivers significantly better performance, at least on paper, than the chip used for the iPad Air 2.
