Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 review: Flying first class

23 October 2013
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...

It's 2560 x 1600. Point. The 10.1 (2014) display features four subpixels (RGBW) per pixel. Since this is a high resolution screen you hardly observe any blurring (usually at the very edges of letters).

        Too many features bundled in this 2014 Note 10.1 that makes this a best buy product...No gimmicks, no tricks and no regret to buy it...

            The most irritating thing is that unlike any other product on the planet, the competition in the tablet market seems to be driving the prices up. Insane

                Why Surface 2 isn't mentioned as a competition?
                Its cheaper and (by me) clearly superior.

                          I have seen the Samsung 10.1 (2014). It is the first Tablet, I have wanted to own. I like the S-pen and the screen. But at £499, it is a big indulgence and seriously overpriced.

                          At £499, it does not even include 3G, do it pointless, as it will cost another £200 for a mobile wifi contract and you need to carry another adaptor.

                            Human eye can't feel more pixels than 3~~ppi.(not sure about the exact number but it's lower than iPad Air and Note 10.1 2014 edition ppi).So I don't think so that there's difference between this and iPad Air's screen quality.Am I right?

                              It seems to me that something went wrong with the epic citadel benchmark, as my nexus 10 yields about 51fps, that with a lesser SoC but same screen resolution...

                                    Hi GSMARENA,

                                    Can we disable the Menu and Back keys and use the buttons on screen like the previous Note 10.1?

                                    When you prolong writing with s-pen on screen, is it easy to rest your hand without eventually touching the capacitive buttons?
