If the price is right, why not. I like my iPad Air 2, but it doesn't have Apple Pencil support and I don't use my iPad enough to warrant an iPad Pro + Apple Pencil investment. A reasonably priced S3 could be just the ticket for me.
If this is priced right, it could be good.
Also, I would have preferred the pen to be housed. But, I think Samsung is trying to get more than s pen fans aboard; not a bad compromise.
The 820 snapdragon isn't the latest but it's still pretty good.
The resolution is fine.
My iPad Pro is decent but I would really like a good android tablet. For one thing, you can use a mouse. Also, the Apple pencil is okay but not as smooth as an s pen.
It's too bad that they aren't bringing out an 8" tablet with these specs. That's probably seen as too comparable to the Note phones.

I bought a Tab A 10.1" with the S Pen for $279. Granted it doesn't have the amoled display, but it's nice.
Not bad at all, seems like I should pay attention to Tab A as well. I didn't realize they come with S Pens too.
They do, but it's not quite the same pen as in the Note 5 and 7. They don't click in and out but they still get the job done.
Yeah, my 2014 Note 10.1 was my favorite tablet. Wish I still had it
However, the tab S3 looks to be a successor.
I'm watching the MWC live feed via Android Central. They've got another tablet that runs Windows. Holy poop! Galaxy Book.
Finally something exciting at MWC. I want to see how bulky this thing is. I have a Surface that's bulky to use as a tablet. Galaxy Book looks sleek. Need reviews and to see it in person.
And pricing will probably limit all of this to just my husband for work. I can hope for hand me downs eventually like how I got my Surface. Or wait for my birthday or something.
I had been looking for new iPads but with reports of delays and whatnot, I'll be looking at these. Looking is free

It ships with nougat...
[doublepost=1488142487][/doublepost]If the price is similar to the tab S2 then I'd be interested in this.
Now this is an S-Pen I could use:
Samsung’s Staedtler stylus is roughly 5,000 times more awesome than the Apple Pencil

Good shout
Think I will get one for media for sure. Wonder how long it will take for the keyboard and covers to be available.
