I mentioned at the start that the Galaxy Tab E is intended, just like the iPad Pro series, to be something you can replace a laptop with. And this is where you run slap-bang into the limitations of Android as a tablet operating system.
First, the good points: unlike the situation a couple of years ago, the applications are there to do some serious work. Microsoft's core Office applications are all now on Google Play, are preinstalled on the Tab S3 and they're very good. Likewise, you'll find Trello, Slack, and other work essentials available.
But multi-tasking remains even less elegant than the equivalent on iOS. Some apps – for example, Facebook – simply don't work well with the split-screen system, and many still don't work in landscape orientation.
