Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 vs the Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 LTE

Hi folks,

            Hope I have posted on the right place I was hoping that you might be able to help me with this as there seems to be some confusion with it. I am interested in upgrading to the Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 however I am wondering are you able to make/receive calls with this device as you normally would with any other phone? And if not then what are the differences between Tab S 8.4 & Tab S 8.4 "LTE". Does it support texting and calling on its own without wifi?

 

Thanks 

 

Conall

Hi

Specs here

http://m.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_tab_s_8_4_lte-6435.php

LTE seems better as this takes a SIM card.

And
"Messaging SMS(threaded view), MMS, Email, Push Email, IM"

O2 only seem to sell tablets on a data package, so whilst there are some tablets that will natively double up as a phone you would need to use a different sim card to the one that o2 sell the devices with.
