Finally got my Tab S2, great machine, some annoying bits.

Aug 3, 2015 2:14PM PDT

Hey everyone, I was looking for a good tablet and finally yesterday I got the new Galaxy Tab S2. It was actually a birthday gift from my wife. I have been working with it for only two days but what a machine. Super fast, super light and fantastic screen.
But there were things which I did not realize before when I was using my Ipad. Some small things which actually annoys me from time to time and I thought to share them with you and see what you guys thing.
It is a bit too light and flies off of your hand with the slightest of wrong movements.
The back and menu buttons which are located on left and right of the home button are annoying. Especially when I am watching a video or something and holding it with both hands, every couple of minutes I press one of these suckers by accident and mess up the whole experience. (There maybe a way to disable them but I could not found it yet).
No cover or screen protector are available yet, I know it was shipper just last week and it is still very early for supplementary items, but business point of view (I am a marketing specialist) I would imagine that for the least, screen protector and cases would be available right from the moment it is released.

Anyways I enjoy the whole experience except for some small bits. This makes me thank Apple for considering almost everything in user experience before releasing a product.
