This is a pretty compelling deal. There is actually an advantage getting the tab S7 variants over the tab S8.
Tab S8 variants were delisted from geekbench for benchmark manipulation because of all the throttling Samsung did to counter the very hot and thermally inefficient 8g1 processor.
Technically the 8g1 we’ll have better benchmarks under optimal conditions, but once you account for load, thermal performance, sustained, use, the 865 chipset in the tab. S 7 and S7 Plus I think is a better experience.
The only downside is you won’t get the longer update cycle that you would get with the tab S8 Plus, that that’s also why you’re getting it at $0.50 on the dollar or something like that.
And the 7th gen models have still been getting all the recent updates in terms of one UI and Android 12L, 13. The 4K support for Dex.
It’s a shame they don’t have the 512 GB version because I think they bump that up to 8 gigabytes of RAM.
If it is new, why only a ninety-day warranty?
[MOD: It’s one-year. It’s been updated.]
No keyboard is a no go for me
Is this why my S22 Ultra is such a trash phone? I wish a house fire would take it and my Watch4 Classic.
Why would there be a keyboard on such a portable device?
@bucketman Hello! The warranty is actually 1 year. We’ll get that updated!
Samsung has really crappy android products.
I have the s22 Ultra and Classic 4 watch. In my use, they are both awesome. Excellent clarity, easy to use, takes a lot of hard use and the Ultra takes awesome pics. I enjoy Samsung products. I also have this tablet in the smaller version. The colors and clarity are wonderful. YMMV.
I was wondering the same thing when I read that, what do people expect nowadays?
My S22 Ultra is the best phone I’ve ever owned. Dont have the watch but I have had the S7 Plus and various other Samsung tablets and all have been awesome.
These massive devices and they just had to remove the 3.5 jack
Just FYI, when I click on that 1 year warranty link, it downloads a 90 day limited warranty for reconditioned Samsung.
[MOD: TY. Fixed]
We got two of these S7 during the Pandemic
Super fast
great Tablets
You wont be disappointed
Also we got the add on keybords they can be had for around $100
It’s not .50 on the dollar discount or even something like that.
Is the screen AMOLED or TFT LCD? Because Samsung’s website says the S7 Plus has an AMOLED screen but the Woot description says it has a LCD screen.
@Wooter382423034 Thanks for the heads up! The link has been updated as well.
Samsung makes a keyboard and there are also third party keyboards and cases. I own one (the tablet and the Samsung keyboard).
AMOLED. It’s a nice screen.
It’s out of stock now, any chance this might come up again ?
