    I have a tab S 8.4 and it's really good! So happy with my purchase.

    What's it like in terms of multitasking?

    Would it be laggy because of TouchWiz?

    Definitely a great tablet!

    It's a great tablet in terms of multi tasking, it has 3gb of ram, TouchWiz takes up about 1gb usually so you've 2gb left which is good for multitasking.

    Good to hear, how much did you pay for it? Ordered mine on Friday, will be receiving it this coming week. Set me back €340 odd.

    Is there really any use for that much though?

    TouchWiz takes up way too much.

    If there was a Tab S with stock Android Lollipop then that'd be perfect for me!

    I got mine for 300 on pixmania, they had an offer on but sadly it's gone now :( I love this tablet though it was so worth the money.

    Since it was PixMania I'm guessing it was an imported version?

    Ye I think it was a French version but they're the same I think. Only downside is that I got the French plug which is different from ours but it came with an adapter.

    Is your Samsung warranty valid here then or whats the story? I wonder if it is since its within Europe, but I am not 100% certain how Samsung operates their warranty service. I know that a lot of the tablets you see on eBay for around the €300 mark are all Asian/Hong Kong imports, and the warranty wouldn't be valid over here.

    I'm not too sure how that would work. I guess you just contact pixmania if anything goes wrong but I doubt anything will happen anyway because it's a great tablet :)

    RAM >2gb will only become relevant when 64bit Android is a thing. Obviously none of our tablets have 64bit processors so that doesn't matter to us :)

    Try and find an Irish seller on eBay. Usually when ye buy from Irish sellers you get it in about 2 days, that would be your best bet. :pac:

    ordered a belkin Bluetooth keyboard for the tab s today.
    i found there are hundreds of good bluetooth keyboard cases for ipads but very few for android and especially for the tab s 8.4. And if there are any decent ones, they are really expensive.
