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

Samsung has dumped everything into this tablet, and done the best it can to doll up Android. While we like the new keyboard and the new S Pen, the overall size and build of the Galaxy Note 10.1 work against it, as does its operating system. Android isn'...
Abstract: At first glance the Galaxy Note 10.1 looks like many of the other Galaxy Tab 10.1 devices, but it's actually very different in both build quality and design. The Note 10.1 has beautifully beveled edges, each side has a small speaker, an attractive faux si...
Abstract: That's not to say that we're overly fond of the Galaxy Note 10.1's glossy casing, as the plastic material does feel quite cheap - disappointing considering the tablet's £399.99 starting price. Still, the white plastic is complemented with silver tri...
Granted, the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 lacks the one competitive spec that other top-tier tablets - specifically the Acer Iconia Tab A700, Apple iPad, and Asus Transformer Pad Infinity TF700 - have at the same or lesser price. Samsung's rendering enhan...

Abstract: For years we've been reading about the alleged iPad killer, a mythical device that never arrives. There have been impressive Android tablets in recent months, but on the whole, it's been clear to everyone but the most ardent Andro...
