Top 5 Tablets to Consider Before Buying the iPad [August, 2014]

Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8-inch

The 8.4-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab S is smaller than the iPad 4 but again, thanks to its impressive feature set, we think it's a device that's worthy of consideration.

Samsung's other Galaxy Tab S offers a similar feature set which means that it comes with an impressive display, an extremely fast processor, and beautiful software. Its design is exactly the same as well.

Best of all, it's $100 cheaper than the larger model and the same price as the iPad 4, at least through Amazon. Look for the prices on both of these tablets to fall in the next couple of months as we push closer to the arrival of Apple's brand new iPads, the iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3.
