Samsung GALAXY Note 10.1 (2560 x 1600 - drool)

[Cosimo]

You can yours nice and cheap from here and it has free p&p.

I hope Samsung make this competitively priced but knowing them it will come around the £500 mark or more.

I suspect the cost will be 599 at launch, dropping several hundred after xmas , this is based on the ludicrous Note 3 price announced

Samsung should know better than pricing this tablet too much above the iPad. It should be no more than £450 for the 16GB model rrp.

The Note 3 has 32GB as standard so they can get away with a £550-600 rrp. It should soon drop £500 on Amazon.

The sellers always inflate the price at launch as we know.

It has a PenTile RGBW LCD display:

Which GPU does the Exynos version use? Anyone know?

 

[matthab]

Definitely want one, anyone see the phone icon in the app menu?

Which GPU does the Exynos version use? Anyone know?

1.9GHz octa-core Exynos 5 Octa processor (3G/Wi-Fi version)
6-Core Mali-T628 GPU running at 600MHz

or

2.3GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor (LTE/Wi-Fi version)
Adreno 330 GPU running at 450MHz

It will be a Mali-T628 if the SoC is the Exynos 5420

That looks fantastic.

My Wife has the current Note 10.1 but this looks a lot more premium and 'grown up'. Nice to see Samsung finally stick a hi-res screen on one of their tablets too as that was my biggest complaint with the original.

I wonder which SoC the WI-FI only version will run. I'm not bothered with the performance difference, just the modding community.

[Skunkworks]

Got my eye on this and will very likely get one when/if the price is around £450.

 

[hellarda]

Interested in this for note taking/general use at uni. Do we have any idea on price yet?

 

[Cosimo]

Going to be on pre-order from tomorrow in the US and on sale from the 10th of October with the 16GB going for $550 and 32GB going for $600.

http://www.engadget.com/2013/09/26/samsung-galaxy-note-10-1-2014-edition-makes-its-us-debut-october/

I make that £343 and £375 which I bet we won't see over here.

 

[hellarda]

SOOOO hope that translates into those prices over here, but doubt it :/

Would hazard a guess at £400 for the 16gb and £450 for the 32gb?

Or maybe even £450 for 16 and £500 for 32

Or maybe even £450 for 16 and £500 for 32

Not bad considering the specs.

If it is £50 cheaper than it would be an instant purchase I think.

£400/£450 would get me twitching.

Indeed, but they can sell it for lower in the US so why can't they sell it for the same price over here?

£400/£450 would get me twitching.

Definitely, and will then most likely drain my student account...

KNOX is a PITA. I deffo want root access atleast, which means a void warranty.

John Lewis free 2 year guarantee is an option.
