Samsung
made a big splash with its 5.3in Galaxy Note late last year, blending
the boundaries between samrtphone and tablet devices, with a little bit
of PDA DNA thrown in for good measure - courtesy of a stylus. Now it's
expanded the range with a 10.1in Galaxy Note tablet. The idea being that
the Note range provides a two-way street of both media consumption and
creation, while the Tab range is a one-way street.
There's
hybrid size confusion here, and upon picking it up, you could mistake
it for any other Samsung 10in tablet - such as the current 10.1 or the
new Tab 2 10.1. Our first surprise was that the stylus - officially the
S-Pen - didn't have a recess to live in. Given the biro-like size of it,
this may not be so surprising as it might well have compromised the
8.9mm design. Still it would have been nice to see a clip or holder for
the pen, maybe on one edge.
The
Galaxy Note 10.1 comes with a range of software to help you express
your creatve urges. Adobe's Photoshop Touch comes pre-installed ,
so you can play with and touch up photos from the onboard 3-megapixel
camera, or any other device thanks to a built-in micro SD port. We had a
go at one of the basic tutorials and found the pen easy to handle and
software quick to pick up.
The
stylus has double the level of sensitivity to that in the 5.3in Note,
256 vs 128 degrees, we didn't notice the difference but then we're not
day-to-day Note users. More immediately useful is the virtual 'rubber'
on the other end of the stylus, which makes deleting an error second
nature. Also preloaded is Samsung's own suite of stylus-friendly apps,
inlcuding S Note and S Planner, so you can use the pen for more
practical purposes, like annotating documents. There's also Adobe Ideas
for more serious drawing.
Once
again at this year's MWC, we were impressed to find that despite all
the customisation to Android, there was version 4.0 running underneath.
The Note 10.1 has a very similar specification to the original Note,
with a dual-core 1.4GHz processor. 16, 32 and 64GB versions will be
available, along with both Wi-Fi only and 3G-enabled models.
We
often complained when tablets first came along that they seemed
designed purely for consumption rather than creation, so we heartily
applaud Samsung in expanding the Note range to a larger device. However,
we're still a bit worried about losing that stylus. Don't Forget to comment >>>>>>>>>>
