Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 review: Flying first class
0
Lightweight, agile and simply affordable, seven-inchers did, at one
point, seem capable of pushing ten-inch Android tablets out of business.
Even Samsung, with its device-for-every-taste approach had to admit
defeat. The Koreans all but threw in the towel with the Galaxy Tab line,
consciously relegating it to the midrange.
The Notes are a different breed though - one we can't see Samsung giving up on any time soon. Of course, it's always the phablet enjoying most of the spotlight and the Note 3 has already had several occasions to emphatically prove that it deserved every bit of it.
But the ten-point-one that follows closely could turn out to be the even more impressive device in terms of the scope and depth of upgrades it brings to the table.
The new Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition comes in three different flavors sharing a quite similar design to the Galaxy Note 3 phablet. There is a Wi-Fi-only version and a 3G-enabled model, both powered by Samsung's own Exynos 5 Octa chipset, as well as an LTE-capable tablet with Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 800 chipset ticking inside.
The one we're reviewing is the Exynos 5 version and here goes the spec sheet.
