Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 Review

The Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 takes the mid-sized mobile market that Samsung's had covered for quite a while with successive Galaxy Note tablets and adds a pen. With Samsung's newest iteration of the S-Pen, a quad-core Exynos processor under the hood, and this rather thin form-factor, it is easily the top tablet effort within this category the company has ever offered. In this 8-inch size, Samsung has also created what most will find to be the ideal size for carry-along entertainment and notes.

The Galaxy Note 8.0 works with an 8-inch display with 1280 x 800 pixels across its face - that's not quite the sharpest screen on the market, however, but it's certainly sufficient for the basics. When compared to the biggest competition this revolutionary product has - the iPad mini - it'll certainly do enough to fight: the iPad mini rings in at 163 PPI as the Galaxy Note 8.0 brings a great 189 PPI to the table.There is going to be at least two versions of the device coming to the marketplace, one of those being the wifi version. This version uses wifi connectivity alone, leaving the 3G/Phone abilities iteration to come internationally. There's even the possibility of a 4G LTE version coming to the USA later this year. Any version of the tablet seems to be coming in at exactly the same 210.8 x 135.9 x 7.95 mm - thin and light indeed at 340g. link

The S-Pen you will get here fits snug inside the side of the tablet right under the right-hand side when you hold the tablet in portrait mode. This kind of S-Pen and tablet carries a newly advanced list of features that work exclusively with one-another. One of the first - and possibly most essential - of these is the pen's option to tap the menu and back buttons below the display where past Galaxy Note devices were unable to do it.samsung galaxy note review youtube.

You'll be using the S-Pen to preview objects as well - "Air View" is what this is called, and it works not just with gallery images and videos as it did with the Galaxy Note II and Galaxy Note 10.1, it now has the ability to preview Flipboard stories, open website menues that normally require clicking, and preview an email attachment. Some/all of the above features are going to be available to your finger using the Air View connection on your Samsung GALAXY S 4, too.This tablet is just a bit too large to hold comfortably in a hand while you're walking around and penning in notes with the S-Pen with the other. If you wish top-notch on-the-go note-taking, you'll want to explore the original Galaxy Note or Galaxy Note II - they'll even fit into your pocket! With the Galaxy Note 8.0 you'll be popping your hardware out at the desk or on the bus most likely.

Remember also that this piece of equipment is made of plastic and glass - the front panel is all reinforced glass while the back it`s a hard white shiny plastic. This product isn't crash-proof in any way save the most basic of falls - you'll likely want to grab a case and/or screen protector or two before you head out.
