Performance
Software & Apps
Batter
Handwriting to text recognition still needs work
Display doesn't wow us
Camera photos are just ok
No HDMI out
Lack of Jelly Bean leads to intermittent jerkiness despite the hardware
Bright screen with good colors and viewing angles is marred by a low resolution for this price range
S Note is promising but unstable
Especially in handwriting recognition mode
Mi
Janky and unresponsive UI
Faux-leather and faux-chrome are forgettable
Hard to care about the features when they either don't work well or don't add value
Benchmark optimizations are poor form...
Underwhelming design
User interface is stuttery
Too much Samsung bloatware
S Note app confusing
Lower-resolution display than competitors
Plastic design
Some lag when multitasking
Only a limited number of apps make full use of the S Pen and some of the ones that do can be buggy and confusing. Some S Pen features aren't enabled by default and others don't work properly
Relatively Low-Res Screen In This Price Segment
Multi Screen Only Works With Certain Apps
Standard resolution display
Stylus can be tricky to master
No dedicated HDMI or USB ports
Relatively low screen resolution
Bottom Line
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 is the first 10-inch Android tablet to offer compelling
Consumer-friendly features the iPad can't match
Weak app selection at launch
WiFi dependent
Limited streaming video options with Honeycomb
Sluggish performance
Overbearing Samsung software
No killer S Pen apps
The S Pen and a slick screen lack the accuracy to make this a tool for professional artists. The Note 10.1 is quick
But not as fast as rival tablets from Asus and Apple. The 1280 x 800 pixel display falls short in today's postRetina world. Samsung's soft
Some performance issues
Feels cheap
Lackluster design
Instances of choppy performance
Mediocre photo & video capture quality
Android isn't suited for large tablets
Low-resolution screen (compared to iPad)
Not enough Android tablet apps
Multiscreen mode is too limited
Speakers are loud but not clear
Proprietary charge port
Volume button is “upside down” when the tablet is in portrait
Screen gets “oily” and shows “stylus trails”
Build quality is lacking
Creaks and squeaks aren't uncommon
S Note app has potential
But doesn't live up to our stylus-friendly expectations
No. The only possible exception would be a graphic designer absolutely convinced that the S Pen can be tamed. Even then, go to the store and give it a good try first. At a $500 starting price, this is a very clear pass for everyone else. The Nexus 7 is on...
Abstract: The web browser on Android has always been excellent and the Ice Cream Sandwich version is no exception. On the revamped Galaxy Note 10.1, the web browser UI has been altered to fit the overall design language and resembles Google Chrome, but that's o...
Overall great experience, TouchWiz is a good skin, Expandable memory, Dual-core processor, Good build
Bad viewing angles, Too big to be used as a phone, No plug and transfer feature for Mac
The Apple iPad defined the tablet genre. It wasn't the first device in this category, but it was one that nailed it right. The third generation iPad is now considered as a benchmark for what the tablet should be like. Till date, if there was one Androi...
Abstract: The web browser on Android has always been excellent and the Ice Cream Sandwich version is no exception. Its interface has been revamped to better fit the new ICS layout and the tablet form factor. Tabs are available at the top of the screen, so switc...
Fast performance, S Pen implementation, Multiscreen feature
Display could be higherres
Yes, it's a grand idea, and not something they may have achieved with flying colours, but Samsung's GALAXY Note 10.1 puts the S Pen to the stars and lets you sketch all over its fast performance and neat Multiscreen feature.(previously published in issue ...

S Pen genuinely useful for creative-types, Clever features like Multiscreen and IR, Essentially a supersized Galaxy phone
Underwhelming screen, Creaky plastic
If you love the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note smartphones but hanker after a bigger screen, this is it. But though there's lots to love, we found ourselves already wishing for the Note 2 10.1 (or another such unwieldy Samsung moniker) – if this tablet were a ...
Abstract: The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 is expected to be introduced in the next month or so which is now beefed up with improved quad-core processor & a new S-Pen which can be stored within the tablet. While there's no visibility on the launch and availability, the...
Abstract: Samsung has been churning out tablets after tablets over the last two years, and the MWC event saw no exception despite not holding any conference this year . The debut of two new 10.1-inch Samsung tablets will hopefully present customers with more option...
The original Samsung Galaxy Note was remarkable in the sense that it defied classification, not just with its size, but also its functionality. Was it a smartphone? Was it a tablet? Was it both or was it neither? And why does it have a stylus?The Galaxy N...
