Samsung Account - Galaxy users are prompted to sign-up for a Samsung account when they set-up their Galaxy device for the first time. Users have the option to save settings, files, call & text logs, and back-ups to the cloud.
This means that when the Samsung user gets a new device, their files, settings, call & text logs, and back-ups transfer over. This also means that a Galaxy phone and a Galaxy Tab with the same Samsung account can share files and settings.

It is clear that after several years of building on the interactivity and integration between Galaxy devices has gotten to a point where tangible convenience has been achieved in 2020.
It isn't perfect though. There are still some kinks that need to be ironed out but the current state of the Galaxy Ecosystem is at a point where it is more promising than other brand's ecosystems.
