I don't hate apple, I just strongly don't like them mainly because of these two words, "Sold" and "Separately"
Honestly, if you're not an artist and would like to use the iPad as a standalone, why would you want to pay the price of the pen included? Apple would just charge more, it's not like the pen is made of free air. Much better to have them sold separately. Everyone's happy at the end of the day, besides those who can't afford another $99 on top of their half a grand ipad of course.
@@Lilyium you are very true! But I wasn't talking about just the iPad. The phones, the Mac books, All of it. Dongles, chargers, I could go on.. my S8 Came with a fast charger in the box and it charges in 45 Min to an hour. Apples fast charger costs an Extra $80 and its still not that fast. Don't get me started on the wireless charging pad And the headphone jack.
Same
Apple just wants money dude so they overprice things and never put 2 things in 1 package
+Lily Vuong why do you buy a tablet if not for drawing or sketching or architectural planning ? A phone can do every thing other than that
I just bought one in June 2020. I love it, gonna be using it for a long time. I feel like it's a great choice if you don't want to spend a lot on the Tab S6 but also want the Dex mode which is missing in Tab S6 Lite. Also worth it if you don't want to go the Apple iPad route. You can find it second hand for a very good price. Got it for 270 pounds in mint condition, ordered a third party keyboard and some spare pen tips, and all that totals to about 300 pounds for a Dex enabled productivity machine AND drawing device.
Not that I hate them, but I dont want to support them. Specially cause of their so closed enviroment that I have 0 control of. Android lets me do what I want, so I'll probably go for this S4.
Same
Did you get it ?
same i always prefer apple to windows way back when they didn't over charge their products and gives the middle finger to gaming, and with their hipster community base that they attract over the years just turns me off their products. not to mention how shit iOS is and how inbreed their software ecosystem is just pissed me off.
and this is from someone who hates samsung because from my experience, their device always has problems a few months after the warranty expired(mainly the batteries) but at least they don't charge me an arm and leg to fix my device.
0 control but a buffet of apps that aren’t subpar.
Hi I'm tab s4
"those that hate apple with the heat of a thousand suns, I know you're out there"
Yup. That's me alright! :D

Enjoy your lag then
@@MarceloGarcia9 what lag?
@@MarceloGarcia9 are you talking about apple lag?
Marcelo Garcia sweetie lag is exclusive to apple devices.. try a oneplus for example
This is exactly the review i have been waiting for. Thank you!
I don't hate Apple (heck, my first smart phone was an iPhone 4, and I still use my 10+ year old iPod Classic), I just dislike many of their design and business decisions, and here are a few examples.
1. How did it take them nearly 12 YEARS to realise "Hey, maybe proprietary ports aren't the best idea?"
2. "Lets remove the headphone jack, nobody uses that anyway, and if they do they can just buy one of our proprietary adaptors!" on a device that has its origins in a portable music player
3. *Accessories sold separately
4. "Why would you ever need to have access to the file system?"
5. "You're only allowed to install apps we approve of"
6. "Nobody needs expandable storage. If they need more storage, they should have thought of that beforehand and paid a premium for the extra gigs"
7. "People like arranging all their icons in a grid starting from the top left of the screen, right? Why would we ever change that?"
Yes I know that most, if not all of these points are ones that other people have also decried for years, and some of them may seem petty to some, but there's good reason so many people complain about these things - they are fundamental things that frustrate a lot of people.
Man you must really hate apple you wrote like a whole essay lol
@@ryrai3782 Well, because apple's business practice is anti-consumer. Only people who are rich enough to pay for them and fanboys would get their products.
Thank God I thought I was the only one who thought that
Lol just watch Louis Rossman for 30 minutes and that's enough for hating Apple
Finally...
Someone who understands me
Finally an artist review for tab s4 😃
Hi KGI, here is another artist review of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4, made by Teoh Yi Chie >> ua-cam.com/video/SuwiU3synn8/v-deo.html
Kind regards :)
Oh- Are you a ONCE?
crispy potatochipss ooh yes I am ;) Are you??
@@kristalgraceilao9603 Yes! Hi my fellow ONCES!! I already saw some of your drawing, they're awesome!
crispy potatochipss omooo, this is cool🤩Thank you for liking my artworks by the way 💕
Thanks for the review, Brad. Keep up the good work! Your S3 reviews and reviews of Android drawing apps led me to get the Tab S4. Had it for a couple of weeks now, and I'm really enjoying it. Cheers!
Thank you Brad, I have been waiting for this review.
Bought one of these yesterday and after some very weird pen issues resolving themselves I absolutely love this tablet. Drawing on it is fun although I’m no great artist. My only issue is the glass back but that is easily fixed with a case which I should soon be picking up for myself :-)
I've been waiting for this review thanks man!
Fantastic review Brad, and great to see the tablet actually in use. I just got the S3 so I'll hold out for the S5 (and your review!) next year.
I used to have a galaxy tab, one that came out in 2014. That's how I got into digital art, and i still love digital (now i use a wacom Cintiq)
What do u prefer? Because with the cintiq you have to be at home with a monitor conected, but with tha tab you can draw outdoors.. I know cintiq is much better for drawing, but that much? And tha tab is shipear
Thanks for this review :)
I'll keep an eye on the development of new features and apps for this tablet. Hopefully I'll buy it once it gets more support
This is really cool! Although I already have a tablet, I still love watching your reviews❤️
Reminds me of Samsung Galaxy 10.1. It was my first tablet and I started digital art with it. I loved it. Would love to try this one in the future☺️
Hi Brad what do you think about the new aspect ratio? After years of using the 16:9 tf810c Windows tablet I'm on the verge of making a switch to either this or the S3. But after having tried an iPad I have to admit I feel much more comfortable using 4:3 in a tablet for drawing, it just feels less cramped. That's the main reason I never used mine in portrait mode. It's a pity because apart from that the S4 has improved in all the other things I thought could be improved in the S3: battery life, better screen to body ratio and resolution.
Nice. I was waiting for this video. I have pre-ordered the Tab S4 for drawing.
Hi,
I was wondering which of your drawing tablets/Chromebook is your favorite. I have never had any Chromebook with a stylus to draw on. which tablet do you think would be best for a beginner?
This was the first video of Brad's i ever watched
I ended up getting the tablet and have been subscribed for 2 years now I believe
What app you use in this video? @Brad Colbow
Thank you. : )
Helpful review and some humour on the side, love it
Of subject, but what screen protector would you recommend for a Surface Pro. I seem to remember you mentioning one in another video but I don't remember which. Great video! I miss the Note 8.0.
When you spoke of if you wanted more resistance on the screen surface, you would just invest in a matte screen protector. Anyone have any specific suggestions on a type/brand you've used and can recommend for this purpose?
Hello Dear
Can you pls make a video on the new tab s6 and tell us what's the name of the application you are using
Thank you
Also, you can hide the navigation bar on the bottom by double tapping the dot on the bottom left corner. Helps in utilizing screen space better.
As someone who is getting into digital art your guides are excellent!
Thanks for this video, subbed. Do you find with matte screen protectors that the tip of the S-pen wears off?
Remote desktop and you should be good to go right?
I've been waiting for your review of this stuff- thank you! I was using first pro iPad , also old samsung galaxy note tablets (who remember such old times? ;) and galaxy note phones v. 4&v.8 with their tiny pens. I have a question about this new fat s-pen - how does it behave with tilt? It looks like it can't be really tilted more than 30 degrees without tip loosing contact with the screen? Have you tested that? What are your feelings?
Hi brad can you do a top 5 best iPad animation apps or something???
Great video. And I clicked on the subscription button after considering the insight that I love and had when younger, and the fact you made your point realizing that you were speaking to people like me, that really hate Apple with a passion :)
excellent review style, quick, detailed & to the point.
But how do you feel about the form factor?
Ive heard some people prefer 4:3 over 16:9.
Can you review the galaxy tab s6?
I really want to get this, but I am not loving the RAM. Did you find it could keep up with your usage?
Will you try with the S4, Adobe Draw, Adobe Sketch and Artflow Studio?
Hi Brad, I enjoy your youtube channel.
Recently purchased a Samsung galaxy S4.
I want to start to use the device to draw on, can you recommend a screen protector and drawing glove?
Thank you.
Jean
@Brad Colbow I got an IPad Pro 12[1st gen] but really wanted an Android tablet for the external storage and sharing with my note8. Should I go for the S4 or stay with the iPad?
What's the application that you are using?
Little help here! I'm a lettering artist and doing tons of sketching but my final work is vector based and mice and keyboard drawn. I need a drawing tablet only for the sketching part. Considering the Samsung S4, iPad 6gen and XP pen 16 pro. Any thoughts ?
Hey Brad nice review, do you know when your tutorial about affinity designer for iPad will be on udemy?
Any chance you have used any tablets for cad apps or 3d drawing preferably with a way to determine scale, ie. Grid background, or a way to set a scale?
Is the program you're using in the video for drawing included in the tablet?
I would like to know does the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 still work with the S Pen if you have a screen protector on the screen.
what specific features on the apps on ios that isnt on android (sketchbook, artcanvas)? that you would use on a daily basis?
i have used an ipad pro, and have a samsung note 4 - which i find sketchbook to be more fluid in brush stroke sensitivity than an ipad pro with affinity painter - perhaps because i dont spend a long time drawing one continious stroke to warrant the time observing the parralex position of the cursor - which i turn off in configuration - as i find rendering the circle to indicate the tip takes an extra second delay before the brush stroke initialises
i would like samsung to continue making tab s line up and consider the reviews thus far from endgadget to represent the tablet in akward situations with less than ideal setup and configuration for a task that a person looking into finding an entry point into being more efficient in general note taking, art, and other forms of content creation can achieve on android rather than on ios because of the ring fenced nature of the os
It’s a hard one I think. I have the galaxy tab s3. I bought it because I need TVpaint on the go for work. I use both iPad Pro and my Galaxy tab a lot, and I like the spen better, but software overall is better on iOS and infinite painter is on that too. For casual cafe sketching I grab the Galaxy tab instead of the iPad though. How do you find the performance between the Tab s 3 and tab s 4? Also I like the way my current spen doesn’t roll off the table, is the new one more comfortable to hold? You seem to not like it.
ok. How about the Surface Go
Hey Brad loved the review! I got a question, I like to do math problems on my TAB A but some math problems are very large and I do not know of any app that can give me a huge page to work on, do you know any solution?
I am wondering if I used this pen with my 2014 note, if it would be an improvement on 's pen with the note? Or would it be the same just bigger to hold? Is pressure sensitivity in pen or tablet?
So does the staedtler pen you mentioned work well on the galaxy tab s4?
are there drawing apps for it that have features that can smooth out your line work?
I am loving drawing on the Galaxy tab S4. One thing i noticed that might explain the cursor not being on point or the lag is if you prop the tablet on something like it's cover so that it's at an angle, however if you place it on a table completely flat and rest your palm on the screen the issue totally goes away.
Can you do one for the New Surface Go ? I'm craving to see some before working and drawing with it myself !
BTW following you for sure
Haha. I love your videos! They are so informative and hilarious. Thank you! 😄
Hi Brad, I have not understood which is the app you are using in this video. Can you help me?
Does the tablet come with the drawing map or did you have to draw it?
I love my S4, especially since I got a good as new open box one from Best Buy for a great price. I do have one big complaint. It picks up my palm while drawing frequently. Even when I use the glove that came with my Huion, it picks up my palm. Anyone else have this issue and better yet, a solution?
What appa re you using in this video? I need illustration apps for my note 9.
is possible to use this like a wacom on pc ?
I bought an s4 tab because the sold separately items on the iPad just wernt attractive(you need at apple pencil and I listen to a lot of music so I'd need air pods and their both 100+ usd) I use medibang as a drawing software (right now at least) but to reduce jitter medibang has a really nice feature at the very top called correction, I usually put it on a 5, it makes line art so much easier and provides smoother lines. For a better grip I usually put a small amount of scotch tape on the pen to give it more of a pencil feel and a better grip.
Went through one page of comments and haven't found anyone suggest the Android app called ArtFlow. I've tried a bunch and this one still wins for me because:
1) It has response graphs for the brush pressure sensitivity
2) The UI disappears when not in use
3) SPen button can be used for shortcuts, disabled or hold it for eraser (which is what I do)
What programme are you using here?
what is the best film application to use spen on galaxy tab s4 tablet? I know the ipad has a film that simulates the use of paper using your pen. What about tab s4? Is there any film with the same properties? any recommendations ?
Your video is so nice !!! And your draws too!
What is the app you use to draw on the samsung galaxy tab s4C quoi ton code ? Pour des tickets de metro stp
And what is for you the best app to draw on android ?
Hey please tell me which app you are using in the above demonstration of Samsung S4...
Finally I definitely need this for digital sketch 😍
name of all the apps that you used plz?
Would you ever do a review on how it works for writing with a matte protector?
Love the review Brad! I completely agree with your point about sketchbook pro. Autodesk Sketchbook pro was the app that got me into digital illustration in 2014. I used to own a Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 inch with a S-pen & Sketchbook was my favourite app to draw in but last year after getting an iPad Pro, Procreate took the number 1 spot for me. Autodesk attracted new users by making the pro features free however they need to bring the desktop features such as perspective tools, ability to import and export brushes & more to tablets as apps like Procreate already have this. Also I am not a fan of the fill tool (may just be me)
I did two of my entries for your August Finished Art Challenge in Sketchbook pro on my iPad Pro & I want to do more in it but Procreate & Affinity Photo/ Designer has my attention more than sketchbook does. Would love to hear your thoughts on sketchbook :)
Any chance of a 12.9 version to compete with the bigger ipad pro?
I have the original Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1
Back in its day it was a beast, but now I need to upgrade.
All I want to know is can I lean my hand on the screen while drawing?
Sir, can you tell me what's the name of drawing app you are using in this video?
I am getting into drawimg and i was looking for something do you think this is good for beginners?
what you wear in your hand? black color. its function aly?
what app you used in this vidio
Thanks for the review, can could you do a test on the tablet huawei mediapad m5 pro ? Thanks.
Hey Brad thanks for this video what was the first app you were using to draw the turtle.
medibang
Which drawing app are you using in this Video.
#BradColbow
I am watching you by Samsung tab s4 and it is amazing!!!!
Can i connect it to the computer and use it like a Wacom tablet?
Which one to go for tab S4 or iPad pro 2017
What’s the drawing app you are using please ?
Anybody know the best animation app? And whether it's exclusive to apple?
Thanks for this review. Been waiting for it. Now just waiting for the ipad pro 2018 model to be released to compare XD
Me too, hoping Apple don't reduce the bezels too much - but if they do, I'll just buy a 2017 model for a lot less. (Unless they make a 14" or 15" iPad Pro because that's money out of my bank account on launch day - whatever size bezels)
Anyone know what app he used for the turtle drawing
I've heard that the pricey animation software "TV Paint" is free on android 5 and up. Can you check if this is the case for Galaxy Tab 4 please?
Interesting video. I recently got tab 4 but I have a problem. I want to ask if you can reduce the growth of the pen to the display
Валентин Сергиев Do you mean the hover cursor
hi, may i know your software use in this review?
I don't know if you figured this out since you made the video but on medibang which I think you're using if you click the correction button on the top left it helps take away the shakiness created on your lines
Is artrage still available on Android that might be the better of the apps available if so
Is that an app to download or is this an internal app
Thank you for the video. Please do you have any revew of galaxy samsung Tab S3?
So what I want to do is basically draw on top of photos... how does this work with that?
Which tab is best for taking notes for a student....iPad pro 10.5 or tab s4?
Hey guys do you know what the first app he used was?
Hy what camera you use to record this video 😊??
You're right I am out there. That comment made me laugh so damn hard. Thank you for these amazing reviews. I am so happy I found this channel. It's amazing that someone is around to be able to explain and review tech specifically from the perspective of an artist. It's really helped me find devices that can help me expand my abilities. Especially in the mobile department. I plan on replacing my Cintiq with the Mobile Studio Pro, since I spend way more time drawing from anywhere in my house, not just my desk, to out in the world at large.
Just make sure you read up on the Wacom tech support problems people with a Mobile Studio Pro have had before you ditch your cintiq....
Better still, look around and see if any of the 4K Pro Cintiqs have actually shipped (6 months after launch date). You'll find a pink unicorn sooner...
What application are you using to draw?
