Who wins on what

Ranked by what users actually praise

Overall Impression

The display and hardware impress despite skipping OLED. Multiple commenters were surprised the screen is IPS rather than OLED, praising its 12-bit depth, DCI-P3 coverage, 144Hz refresh, and lack of black smearing. Some argue modern IPS avoids OLED's PWM flicker and eye strain, while others still wish for OLED. Build quality, SoC performance, and multi-speaker sound also earned strong praise, with several calling the speakers among the best in the tablet market.

The Focus Pen experience is inconsistent for creative and note-taking users. Artists and students value the tablet for drawing and notes, but many report the pen disconnecting mid-use, often traced to magnetic cover interference, tilt-detection confusion, or Bluetooth pairing drops. The lack of programmable pen buttons frustrates artists, and one user noted abnormal battery drain when the pen is powered on. Firmware updates reportedly improved tilt support for some users over time.

Value and software leave a mixed impression among buyers. Some users found the tablet a strong value against pricier OLED rivals like the Galaxy Tab S9+, citing lower cost and less bloatware, while others felt the launch price was too high compared to competitors. HyperOS earns credit for speed but criticism for app crashes, buggy workstation multitasking mode, distracting floating UI elements, and a software feel that mimics iOS rather than stock Android.
