Not sure if this is common knowledge here, but Costco sells this tab for 240$ with a case. Just figured I'd let y'all know.

Yes, it's been posted a few times. They also offer the tab 2 10.1 with case for 379.99 at selected stores.

Oh okay sorry for the repeat thread.
Mods delete this if you want.

I might be wrong but I think it is more of a pouch than the actual case. Costco has the same offer on the 10.1 for $379.99
It is just a pouch, but it works good for me.

Picked it up to try but looks like I'll be returning..
- No ad hoc WiFi support
- No standard USB port to charge (must use Samsung cable to USB charge)
- Nearly every Gameloft game doesn't support 7"
- A few EA games work but are a bit sluggish
I really like it otherwise and would recommend if the above do not matter, but they are deal breakers for me. I tried a 10" too and find that 7" is mo betta for a mobile device. 10" just too big for me.
Nice thing about Costco is easy to return.

There is a way for ad hoc support. Few forums on that topic. Can use a previous wpa_supplicant file and replace it. Won't get into logistics but the tab needs to be rooted and permissions changed on the file and using Wi-Fi Tether change to a device profile w/SoftAp and you got tethering wirelessly. FYI.
Too bad for proprietary charger and games but extremely mobile.

If you are rooted you can fix two of your four issues and the charger is like that with any tablet you get.

I could see how not having a standard USB port would bother people, but that's nothing new to Samsung. Chances are that when people are doing their research online that they will see that.
I bought mine from BJ's Warehouse last weeek as it was on sale for $229 with the offical leather samsung pouch. (Samsung sells the pouch for $49 but I would not have paid for that as a separate accessory).
The tab was $20 bucks off but I purchased an extended 2 year warranty for $20 which includes accidental coverage. That gives three years total warranty, including the Mfr one year warranty (without accidental coverage).
If you are going to buy form BJ's they only have a 15 day return period for tablets but I have never had any return hassels from them.
I gave my wife my Original Verizon Samsung Tab 7 and I think she is hooked now on it.

Also, that's a great deal you got. I paid full price ($250) from Best Buy with full insurance for a year ($80 (Includes idiocy protection... I mean accident protection), since it will be my main device for basically everything) and feel like I got a little jipped but can definitely live with it since this is a GREAT tablet.

Well, it is not advertised, but the same $239.99 + pouch at all Costco locations. I bought mine there last week, call ahead, alot of stores sold out over the weekend.
Prices in store for Costco are always lower than they are online for their electronics from what I've seen. It could also be related to specials that are running for certain time periods with the coupon booklets they send out.
Well I'm not an expert, but I do travel a bit and end up visiting a few Costco stores. There is no sale or coupon. Some stores have the 7 inch and some stores have the 10 inch, while others have neither. They both come with a sleeve. $239 for the 7 inch and $379.00 for the 10 inch. With the addition of sales tax and not wanting the sleeve anyway, I bought mine online YMMV.

They usually have em round $315 at least once every 2 weeks or so.

"Refurbished" is derived from the Greek for "...someone else's broken stuff".
Used tablets are like used underwear. It may wash up nice but I can never forget it's had someone else's ass in it.

I do not see it always bad to buy used or refurbished. But you really should think.
New for 32 gb 499.99 average price retail with 1 year warranty
Refurbished 32 gb average say 410.00 no warranty add 50.00 for hard to get them to pay warranty $460.00 if no shipping can
Save you 40.00 or gamble it will not break
So my honest well thought out opinion is spend the extra 40.00 plus buy good premium drop protection warranty.
Can save you money in the future.
Good luck

If I already did not have a 2014 I would be considering this option, remember........
It only has a 90 day warranty but you could purchase a 2 yr warranty with accident protection on the 16gb version for $45.96 at Amazon http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004M5QPDK/ref=twister_B00EVEFQTQ
Yes, you can share your apps and games from Google play that you have already purchased on your account for free as long as the app is compatible with the new device.

I wonder if these are all those ones with bluetooth connection problems that have been returned.
If so, and assuming bluetooth now works, I'd certainly be happy to buy one. In some ways a long warranty is a burden with these things; it makes you hesitant to root the thing.
I would just use it to death for the first little while. Most hardware faults will be obvious well before 90 days are up.

I own a GT-N8013 and a SM-P600......
The 2014's screen is very nice, it's thinner and lighter, like the screen sleep and awake by opening the case, loving WiFi with AC connectivity.
I like it but I don't think I'm enjoying the experience as much because after having a GT-N8013 for a year there is a bit of a learning curve. The location of the buttons throws me off a little but I'm starting to get the hang of it.
Don't like the much thinner stylus, it feels like it will break it's so thin.
I guess I do like it but I would not recommend for someone to dump there old version Note 10.1 for the 2014 edition just to get the screen.

I absolutely love my Note Pro 12.2 P900 but I'm in need of something else for work and can't afford lots of devices all over the place. I bought this only 2 months ago. It's the P900, already Rooted with Xposed, etc... on it and runs VERY smoothly. Below is what I have for it, and what I paid.
Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 P900 - $650
Logitech Keyboard Case/Cover - $130
Samsung S-Active Mouse - $45
inCase 13" Laptop Carrying Case - $40
I have $865 in it, it's in MINT condition, everything is... and will let the lot go for $700 flat, I'll pay shipping if in the USA.
I will keep the Root and everything installed on it and just remove my Google account so you can enjoy it day 1, no fuss. Send me a PM on here if interested please.

Yeah, that's the cheapest I've seen it too... Mine's not a refurb, it's near brand new. I understand it's used. If someone makes a reasonable offer, I'll let it go. It has ZERO scratches, and comes with the extras... those are not cheap extras. I'm not selling the device for $700, I'm selling everything I listed for that price, well... asking for that price. I know used isn't new and sells for less so of course I'm willing to talk if someone is serious.

I bought one of those. It was $429 before they raised the price to $449 and there was an Ebay promo for another 13% off making the price $375. Some lucky people also had a $20 coupon emailed to them dropping the price to $355. Under $400 is a steal.
NOT !!!
To make a long story short, The Tab Pro 8.4 is better than the Tab S 8.4
I made a switch to the Tab S because of the 3gb memory... well the thing lags a little compared to my previous Tab Pro.
I wanted Knox - the Tab S didn't have the container preinstalled and the Knox apk posted here in the forum does not work. And I can't find it on the Samung appstore either - yes I am not going to root this device.
Less bloatware - yes the Tab S has more bloatware and they can't be "stopped" like Evernote etc.
Better screen - as with my other Samsung Super Amoled devices, the screen looks pinkish and the bottom half is darker than the top half... This is a problem with the S4, Note 2, Note 3 which I had before (I must be the luckiest guy in the gadgetworld), and it really is annoying me especially at night when the screen is the only thing emitting light in my room which makes it very obvious.
Welcome home, tab pro !!!

If you ever hope to do anything development related (like flash a custom ROM), avoid the S like the plague and get the Pro. "Custom ROM" and "Exynos chipset" don't belong in the same sentence anymore. The Pro 8.4 has a Qualcomm SnapDragon 800 and a bunch of custom ROMs already.

As long as it's "manufacturer" refurbished, you are good. I've purchased a few tablets/phones that were manufacturer refurbished, and all have been flawless and appeared brand new. They usually come with a limited warranty also (90 days) so that makes it a bit better. 3rd party refurbs can vary greatly in condition/quality.
I just picked up a manufacturer refurb tab pro 8.4 and it arrived yesterday. Came in a white samsung box, and again, it's physically flawless (not a single mark on the screen or back), and works great. I always root/unlock my android devices, so the factory warranty only lasts so long with me, which is why I buy used/refurbs a lot.

I went with the pro. The deal I got at the time made it a total no brainer. 250$ price from Best Buy plus a 50$ best buy gift card. Also got two 25$ Google Play codes. Basically got a brand new tab pro 8.4 for a whopping 150$....no way the Tab S is worth 400$.

The week before the tab S came out in retail, Best Buy slashed the price in stores to 249.99$, and for a couple of days, if you ordered it online you got a 50$ gift card sent to you too. It was a crazy deal.

Oh okay... I did some searching and found some deals related to this but already expired. boo hoo.
Not sure what I'm going to do if I'm going to just order another refurb or what. I originally got the GTP because it had infrared but it appears to be kinda proprietary and I'm not a fan of the application. I'll have to do some additional research to see if there are other customizable applications for total home theater control (including HTPC) to see if this model is even going to accomplish what I was hoping for. But getting it NEW for $250 would surely seal the deal for me!
For 8.4 model, Tab Pro is much better because 800 processor is better than Exynos.
For 10 model, they're draw.
AMOLED on Tab S looks better (less red tint) than 8.4, but keep in mind that Tab Pro does not have screen burn problem.
However, there's a minor feature on Tab S a lot of users overlooked: charging port. You can put the unit in landscape and charge.
