If only this is cheaper or has better specs, why must it priced like the iPad Pro, when android tablets are no match for Apple unlike their phones.

well branding is the keyword
no brand or lesser known sell so ex also no use right?
It competes in the same space mah...
I do agree with this. The snapdragon 835 in the TAB S4 is roughly on par with the Apple A10, but the asking price for it is similar to the A10x on the iPad Pro. The 6th gen iPad performs similarly to the TAB S4 and cost half the price. If I were to choose tab S4 and iPad Pro, I'll go for iPad Pro because of the 120hz display. But I still prefer my tab s2 when I'm watching videosYou only do that when you are in the same status for that product, but android tablets are way behind ipad. How to even convince the consumers to "give it a try" when you are priced the same as the best product in the market.

I believe the Tab S4 in dex mode (with keyboard) will give a gd run on productivity.I will still choose Tab S4 only because I want a high end android tablet, but most other people will probably just choose ipad. The android tablet sphere has already shrunk much since last time, and will only shrink further if they dun entice people over, and low end cheap android tablet is not going to be the solution.

With the kind of morons, which Samsung is taking us consumers to be. No one can blame people from choosing a better deal.
Alternatively, consider the Microsoft surface go, which represents an alternative to androids
I don't view the iPad as superior to a high end Android tablet. They're different but compete in the same space as premium tablets... basically people choose Android tablets for its open ecosystem... it's not inferior... I always read about apps being poorly optimized for Android tablets but I really don't get bothered by it... it's probably one of things that some get it and some don't... but what gets my goat is the highly illogical user interface for Apple in which you can't even sort your apps... that's really backward in today's terms... so each system has it's own drawbacks and one really isn't superior to the other in my opinion...
Performance is one big area when comparing devices. iPad Pro is supposed to be super slick with its 120Hz screen, and I dun know why my "high-end" Tab S3 lags so much compared to its phone counterpart when it's competing head on to iPad Pro. It even hanged sometimes when I'm playing a simple game. If it's good enough, I dun mind an older processor, but obviously it's not and Samsung can make it better but they didn't. Android has finally get to the point where I feel the phones really are very close to iPhone in performance, but why the same effort isn't put into its tablet?
Same story with the Tab S4, this time they are more ambitious to make it like a 2-in-1 for productivity, but still an older processor and 4gb ram for the heavy multi tasking?! I have a feeling it's still going to lag this time. Sometimes you felt angry just thinking of it and they still wonder why Android tablets are going extinct.
Maybe I should elaborate why I say the Tab S3 is a rushed job... the software optimization doesn't seem to be optimally done... compared to my Note 8 where there's basically no lag... even without a 120 Hz screen...

Have considered surface pro and go, but they are basically laptops to me. I mean, how many people really use Windows tablet/mobile mode
Which is why i think the dex mode wil be interesting.iPads are superior mainly because Apple controls both hardware and software. Thus, giving them a huge advantage. On the flipside, Samsung just gets an off the shelf SD 835 and Android OS for their tablets, and furthermore, introduced more "extra features" on the OS. These basically will have an impact on performance.
The main cons of Apple is of course the walled garden ecosystem. So much so that it gets pretty annoying since a simple task of transferring photos from my camera to iPad is quite a pain.
