"Those dual adapter don't work without a hassle either, I got one fron UGREEN. You have to plug in headphones and charging cable (turned on) first and then connect to the tablet. You also get 1.5A max charging only."

I never said you'll get fast charging. It's regular charging only but at least, you can use wired headphones and charge at the same time. If you want fast charging and use your wired headphones at the same time, it's quite simple really. Just buy a cheap Bluetooth receiver for your headphones, one that has a huge 1000mAh battery for 10hrs non-stop music /movie listening. When the tablet is full, you can just remove the bluetooth adapter from your headphone jack and use your wired headphone with the provided USB-C to 3.5mm adapter.

I also already explained to you that I actually like to make use of the fast storage and SoC, and yes the storage is 10 times faster. I'm not going to waste another 420 bucks anytime soon.

    If everyone is like "I don't care about updates", than it will never change. This mindset is exactly why that company you hate is so popular, you are basically a big part of it. Just think about your attitude.

Your present the internal storage speed as something that makes the Samsung S5e a horribly sluggish, unbearable experience just because its internal storage isn't fast enough. You're like saying people who ride ordinary cars in regular city traffic are experiencing 10x slower speed than one driving a Ferrari! It's the overall package that matters to most people and with that, yes, I'll TAKE slow software updates of the S5e vs. being locked up and imprisoned in an outdated, clunky, restrictive, jurassic walled garden that is called the iOS/IPadOS system. If you're not happy, just donate your S5e and go back to your iPad.

          Those dual adapter don't work without a hassle either, I got one fron UGREEN. You have to plug in headphones and charging cable (turned on) first and then connect to the tablet. You also get 1.5A max charging only.

          Why are you trying to justify shortcomings by saying that iOS is limited? If you compare the media consumption experience of both (since you can't do much more with the Tab S5e anyway), the S5e seems better but again, you ignore the bad quality AMOLED panel and the lack of a headphone jack. I rather have a good IPS display than a terrible AMOLED.

          And of course, software. The lack of support is sickening.

            Yes, even android one devices aren't spared from delayed software version updates partly because Google has doesn't have COMPLETE control of android one devices not like Pixel phones. But still, those devices have the FASTEST, TIMELY MONTHLY security updates (even if the Android version doesn't get updated as fast).

            If you don't know already, Samsung is actually up there with the better manufacturers that provide faster updates compared to others. If it's too slow to you, just DUMP your S5e, donate it to charity, or sell it and get back to the crippled, superfast SOFTWARE UPDATES of your IPAD/Apple device.

I never said the provided adapter was a splitter. It's a converter that converts USB-C to 3.5mm. If you want to charge tablet WHILE listening to music at the same time, I already mentioned it: You buy a cheap adapter that splits USB-C to a 3.5mm jack plus USB-C adapter.

              Regarding Windows PC's being a seamless experience with Android tablets, you need to connect the tablet with the USB cable and voila! You can view the entire Android file system of the both the tablet's internal and external (micro sd) memory eith Windows explorer and DO ANYTHING you want! Not like your CRIPPLED iPAD or IOS device! With the provided cable, you don't need ANY SOFTWARE in windows.

              If you want wireless transfers, you just download an android app and follow instructions for PC transfer! But seriously, why would you go wireless when the tablet has USB-C 3.1 which provides you with the fastest file transfer you can imagine. If you don't know how it's done, search Google! That's what happens if you've been using a dumb iOS/iPadOS for so long.

              Regarding internal storage, again you're making a big fuss regarding storage speeds. The tablet can read and write 4K movies without hiccups or problems and load apps and games sufficiently fast - not the fastest, but it's not as agonizingly slow as you make it appear. Besides, who would use a 10.5" tablet for gaming when the huge 10.5" screen is so cumbersome to hold and tap/touch for gaming. You're a heavy gamer? Better use a big screen phone than waste money on a big screen tablet than isn't designed for convenient touchscreen gaming at all! But if you insist, you can actually buy peripherals (Ex. joystick/game controllers) for Android and they are super cheap with lots of choices and flexibility. You can't say the same for Apple devices where everything is outrageously overpriced!

                S5e is a great tablet for regular users. What can't you do on it because it still has android 9 ?
                Do you think android 10 will make it grow wings or cook food by its own ?! Do you really need security updates monthly ? what for, do you really think you can't get viruses or what because of an update ? The best security is a smart user who does not install shady apps or websites.
                What jelly scrolling ? I have a Note 10+ and can't see any difference when scrolling.
                If you give me that iPad as a gift i would sell it and buy S5e or S6.
                I love the screen and 4 speakers. 4gb RAM and the CPU is fast enough for average user.
                Excelent for movies, browsing, social apps and medium games.

Project mainline basically made updates way faster. Samsung however doesn't care. Monthly security updates are also not a lot to ask for is it? Atleast they wouldn't have to worry about that with Android 10 and project treble.

The usb-c adapter is NOT a splitter. I can't charge and use headphones at the same time, can I? I bought Galaxy Buds because there is no headphone jack, still a nice thing to have.

                      I am also NOT talking about SDXC cards. The INTERNAL storage is as slow as SD cards, do you get it now? Probably not. You don't even seem to know about SSD protocols.

                      It does NOT have "seemless" Windows integration you clown. You have to download their software or use a cable if you don't have a Wifi card.

                      The jelly scrolling is present and as I wrote in PORTRAIT mode. And no, never seen that on any other tablet or phone but this. I use my Tab in landscape 99% of the time, but still annoying.

                      You can have a different opinion about the looks but functionally of this thing is not good. The Wifi reception is especially garbage because of the same design flaw as the iPhone 4.

I've been looking at... moreLatest update or not, tab S5e has Bluetooth 5.0 which means, yes, it can pair to TWO bluetooth devices simultaneously. If you have two bluetooth headphones or earbuds, YES you can pair both simultaneously to this tablet and hear the same music or movie.

                        Both bluetooth devices will receive the sound within a fraction of a second of each other (one slightly ahead or later by a fraction of a second). The amount of delay (latency) of one device over the other is insignificant if you are using all Bluetooth 5.0 devices. If one of the devices is bluetooth 4.x or earlier, it will be a fraction of a second behind the device which has bluetooth 5.0. Still it's a very small difference you can watch a movie with a friend without either of you noticing a video-audio sync problem.

READ THE PREVIOUS POSTS.

                          If you are too IGNORANT to understand Android's eccentricities - like using FAKE micro sd or wrong slow speed micro sd card can cause tablet slow down and using an ADAPTER for the missing headphone jack is just a simple plug and play experience, then you should go back to your crippled iPad!

                          Come to think of it, I SERIOUSLY DOUBT you OWN this tablet.

                          If you did, how can you be too ignorant so as to NOT SEE and KNOW that this tablet actually COMES PROVIDED with wired Samsung earbuds AND Samsung USB C to 3.5mm adapter out of the box and that it is as simple to use as plug and play?

                          You can even use your wired audiophile grade headphones with it and its got Dolby Atmos with quad speakers and a gorgeous wide-screen amoled display for the perfect movie and music and photo browsing experience! (Not like your squarish iPad screen with HUGE BLACK BARS galore!)

                          And not to mention because it's android, it's got seamless WINDOWS PC compatibility that you can transfer files seamlessly and even use your PC's wired keyboard and mouse for typing Microsoft documents on the go and then wirelessly screen sharing everything on a projector or big screen tv for productivity and business presentations! Not like your crippled iPad pro that needs Apple tv and needs you to buy lots of overpriced Apple branded accessories just so to make the experience LESS CRIPPLING (but stll crippled anyway)!

                          And we're not talking yet about the suffocating, jurassic walled garden Apple experience! Just do a search here or read comments from the previous pages so I don't have to educated another naive iOS/iPadOS user like you!

You moved to ANDROID but EXPECTED updates that are as TIMELY and FAST as in iOS/iPadOS? To educate you, let me tell you GOOGLE makes and owns Android and OEMs like Samsung ADD their own Android skins. And Android manufacturers make MANY device models, mind you with varying hardware configurations and many are actually WORSE than Samsung! If you want fast Android updates, buy the latest Google Pixel phone or buy an Android One device or GO BACK TO YOUR CRIPPLED IPAD PRO.

What makes you think you have to buy an iPad Pro? They have cheaper iPad options than this and as an entertainment tablet they work way better in my experience.

                              This thing lacks processing power to even be used for anything but videos and browsing. The storage is also slow eMMC, but Apple's cheapest iPad has NVMe. Combine that with the processing power and you have a better deal if you for example make GIFs with screen recorder like me.

                              I basically sold my iPad 9.7 2018 for this and what did I get? No monthly security updates, no headphone jack, slow storage, bad quality AMOLED panel with color shift and jelly scrolling. I don't like iOS or iPadOS more than Android but Samsung is not delivering a good experience. This thing froze on me when setting it up out of the box, never happens with Apple. Keep in mind I even pre-ordered this and know the software experience since the beginning.

Quite disgusting product politics. As if Android tablets didn't have it hard enough already. Also no headphone jack.
