Verdict

The Samsung Galaxy View (SM-T670) is a massive 18.4-inch tablet designed primarily as a portable media center, featuring a Full HD 1080p TFT LCD display and a unique integrated handle and kickstand for easy room-to-room transport. It is powered by a 1.6GHz octa-core Exynos 7580 processor with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage, expandable via microSD up to 128GB, and runs on Android 5.1 Lollipop. Main pros include its expansive screen size ideal for video streaming, surprisingly loud 4W stereo speakers, and a decent 5,700mAh battery providing up to 8 hours of video playback. However, its significant weight of nearly 6 pounds and the non-removable stand make it difficult to use as a traditional handheld tablet, while the 120 ppi pixel density and lack of a rear camera may feel underwhelming for high-end users.
