Surface Pro 3 vs Galaxy NotePro 12.2 comparison: two powerful 12in tablets but only one will replace your laptop
Source: Tech Advisor English Archive.org version
Overall, both the Surface Pro 3 and Galaxy NotePro 12.2 are impressive tablets that offer stunning, big, bright and colourful displays. They're both ideal for multi-tasking – running more than one app simultaneously, side by side – though you won't be able to run powerful desktop apps like Photoshop on the Android tablet like you can on the Surface. If you're simply looking for a tablet with an enormous display, you'll probably find you're better off with the NotePro 12.2, but for a device that could potentially replace your laptop completely, it's the mid- to high-range Surface Pro 3 models you're after.

Source: Tech Advisor English Archive.org version
The Samsung Galaxy NotePro 12.2 is a seriously impressive tablet that blows away the vast majority of Android tablets and leaves them eating its dust in terms of power. If you've got £600 to blow and want a tablet that's bigger than 10-inches then this powerhouse won't disappoint in terms of performance and looks, and to be frank it's your only option as it's the only device out there like this.

Samsung's thumb-achingly ENORMO Galaxy Note Pro 12.2
Source: Reg Hardware English Archive.org version
At around £650, the Note Pro is not a cheap device. Sony’s new Xperia Z2 10-inch tablet costs £250 less though, to be fair, the more comparable Tab Pro 12.2 can be yours for around £550. Still, you do get an awful lot of tablet for your money and the long battery life will be an appealing feature if you are a dedicated slab fondler. Moreover, the pre-loaded business software could find favour among corporates types or those fated to BYOD.

70% Samsung Galaxy NotePro 12.2 review: a 12-inch powerhouse of a tablet that's too big for it's own good
Source: Tech Advisor English Archive.org version
The Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 is a tablet that is pretty much on its own in the Android market, that said it appears very well built and packed full of interesting software. It’s not a tablet that we can recommend for the average user, but if there is much of a market out there for powerful big screened tablets then the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 is going to be leading the charge.

70% Samsung Galaxy Note Pro review
Source: NDTV Gadgets English Archive.org version
In fact some convertible Ultrabooks, which offer a balance of tablet and laptop features, cost even less than the Note Pro, such as Lenovo's Ideapad Yoga 13, which comes with an Intel Core i5 CPU, 4GB of RAM, a 128GB SSD and 13.3-inch 1600x900 screen. So as much as we want to like the Galaxy Note Pro, we really can't see any reason to be excited by it. Perhaps its near twin, the Galaxy Tab Pro, will offer better value for money, but we can't help but feel that as far as Android tablet sizes go, 12.2 inches is well past the point of diminishing returns.

80% Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 64 GB WiFi and 3G Review
Source: Think Digit English Archive.org version
The Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 is labeled as a "business" tablet, and that gives it a completely different persona. This tablet may not completely replace your laptop for many tasks, but it does come quite close. The display is very good and comes in a typical Samsung style. There are the gamut of features including the complete S-Pen ecosystem of apps. A bunch of preloaded business centric apps give the tablet some extra productive capabilities than most tablets. However, the big screen size may be an issue for some users, and I am not really sure why the same could not have been replicated with the same screen size as the one on the fantastic Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet.

Source: PC Pro English Archive.org version
The NotePRO 12.2 is aimed at a professional market (it's too heavy to compete with other consumer-focused tablets), and there are undoubtedly business scenarios where a larger-screened tablet makes sense, particularly with a pressure-sensitive stylus. That's not to say the Samsung Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 isn't a fabulous piece of hardware. We love the screen, we love the S Pen, we love its general performance (although not the responsiveness of the new UI elements), and we like the design. If you're looking for a versatile tablet-style device for business, however, this isn't the one we'd recommend. Save up a little longer and go for a Microsoft Surface Pro 2 instead.

Samsung Galaxy NotePRO 12.2: First impressions
Source: NDTV Gadgets English Archive.org version
What's nice about the NotePRO is its compatibility with Android phones and Google services. You'll have to weigh whether that's more important than running Windows software and whether all that is worth the $750 price. And keep in mind that compared with Apple's iOS system, Android still doesn't have as many apps specifically designed for the tablet's screen size. Many tablet apps are simply larger versions of phone apps. The iPad is also cheaper, starting at $499, though the base model comes with half the storage available in the NotePRO's $750 model.

Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 vs Surface Pro 2 head to head review
Source: V3.co.uk English Archive.org version
However, for us here at V3, the Surface Pro 2 beats the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 in a few key areas. Reviewed as a purely business tablet, the Surface Pro 2 features an admittedly less pretty, but more functional design and superior performance. Thanks to the use of Windows 8.1, the Surface Pro 2 also features a more robust portfolio of business and productivity focused services. By comparison, while cheaper and still very enterprise friendly, the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2's victories tended to be more consumer focused. That said, for those interested in a device for work and play the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2's display and superior battery mean it will be better for certain consumer purposes, like media consumption.

We like the NotePro 12.2’s large screen, and its business-focused nature, but we think many people would be better off spending much less on the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014. The NotePro 12.2 can’t replace your laptop if you rely on MS Office or specific software, though, and the lack of a physical keyboard is another disadvantage when you can buy an Ultrabook for around the same price. We think the NotePro is too expensive at £700, especially when tablets are still an uncommon sight in the workplace.

80% Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 review Samsung throws everything into the fledgling maxi-tablet category
Source: Techradar English Archive.org version
As the first significant manufacturer to step forward with its vision of a super-sized tablet, Samsung has quite a job on its hands to convince the world that there is a genuine need, and that this isn't just a gimmick. If nothing else, the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 successfully answers that question to the affirmative. It's not a tablet you'll want to lug around with you or whip out in public, and it is dauntingly expensive. But if productivity is foremost in your mind as you shop for an Android tablet, the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2's combination of huge HD display and S Pen interactivity is a compelling combination.

Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 deep-dive review: Almost a laptop replacement
Source: Computerworld.com English Archive.org version
All this doesn't come cheap: If you want the Wi-Fi-only versions, you need to be willing to shell out $750 for the 32GB model or $850 for the 64GB model. If you also purchase the keyboard, mouse and cover that I used at MWC, it can add up to $170 more. At that point, you might be asking yourself: Why didn't I get a Chromebook for $320? Samsung is known for offering many different models of the various devices it makes and already has a range of tablet screen sizes -- it has now added a 12.2-in form factor. The Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 is powerful and capable, and could be valuable for many students and mobile workers if they can adjust to typing on a virtual screen or with a Bluetooth keyboard. If only it didn't come with such a high sales price.

80% Samsung Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 review: Excellent tablet, but no notebook replacement
Source: Zdnet.com English Archive.org version
At the start of this review we said the Samsung Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 offers a glimpse of a future where tablet-based working is the norm. It's certainly the closest we've seen to a tablet that could see us through a working day without recourse to a notebook. But there's still a way to go. The bottom line is that, compelling though the Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 is, £649 (inc. VAT; £541 ex. VAT) will buy you a well-appointed notebook that offers more capability for the average mobile professional.

Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2: Don’t Ditch Your Laptop Just Yet
Source: Recode English Archive.org version
The Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 uses Samsung’s latest processor and, generally, performance was smooth. The tablet did become slightly sluggish when working in multiple apps. Battery life was solid. Though I didn’t do a formal battery test, the tablet lasted more than a day with moderate to heavy usage before needing to recharge. Despite the productivity features and extra-large screen, the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 can’t match the power of a laptop, and with its sky-high price tag, it’s hard to recommend even as a standalone tablet. You’re better off investing your money in one of the many affordable Windows 8 devices, or going for a less-clumsy tablet like the iPad Air or even the Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition.

Surface Pro 2 versus Galaxy Note Pro: a productivity smackdown
Source: PC World English Archive.org version
With phones, tablets, phablets, and ultrabooks available in a staggering array of sizes and configurations, true road warriors can order up pretty much what they want. And that includes operating systems. I worked for a prolonged period on a Chromebox, just to see if it could be done, but in the end I returned to Windows. In the final analysis, if I were forced to spend my own money, I’d pick the slightly cheaper Note Pro. But if I could charge the bill to my company, I’d ask for the Surface Pro 2. But in the end, I mostly chose the Surface Pro 2 based on subjective preference, rather than any technical roadblocks on Android’s part. And that’s a flimsy ledge for Microsoft to cling to.

70% Samsung Galaxy Note Pro review: Android's bid to replace Windows in the office
Source: PC World English Archive.org version
Spending $750 for an Android tablet seems exorbitant. But the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro offers a larger screen, excellent battery life, and access to the Android and Samsung app stores. The sum of its parts—a large screen, excellent fantastic battery life, multi-app windows, and equivalent PC software—not only make the Note Pro a viable choice for a tablet enthusiast, but a jumping-off point for an adventuresome road warrior to leave the Windows world entirely. If only Samsung could knock another $150 or so off the price.

Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 review: a tablet that proves bigger isn't always better

To me, the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 is quintessential Samsung. It's emblematic of that spaghetti-to-the-wall approach we've seen the company indulge in time and again. I don't know that the Note Pro 12.2 needs to exist because I don't know that there's actually a niche hungry enough for this product.

With its big, high-res screen, octa-core processor, deeply integrated stylus and powerful office suite, the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 is a strong choice for business users. However, the device feels bulky, and you'll need to spend more than the somewhat steep $749 price to add a keyboard. For that kind of money, we would hope to get a true clamshell-shaped hybrid, like the $799 Lenovo Yoga 13 or $650 ASUS Transformer Pad TF701T.

Or at least - not yet. What's it good for? Multi-tasking, viewing documents, conferencing and catching up with the news. What's it not so good for? Long stretches of typing, gaming and using in impromptu situations. The NotePRO 12.2 might not be perfect and it certainly isn't cheap, but in one or two iterations, this could be the go-to business tablet Samsung is aiming for. When it's lighter with a zippier interface and more apps compatible with its nifty features, it will be worth that steep price. The NotePRO 12.2 is a typically Samsung gamble and it largely pays off. Now, we've just got to find somewhere to put it...

Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 vs iPad Air head-to-head review
Source: V3.co.uk English Archive.org version
Even though the iPad Air scored an impressive five stars when we reviewed it on release last year, since then the market has moved on and having won four of our nine rounds to the iPad Air’s three, we’ve got to give the best enterprise tablet award out of these two devices to the Samsung Galaxy Note 12.2in. However, with two of the rounds resulting in draws the battle has been a close one and both tablets certainly have merit in the workplace. The Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 offers users a sizeable display, an array of productivity-focused applications and services, a robust battery life and a useful S Pen stylus. But to counter this, the iPad Air boasts a more travel-friendly design, more robust security and is significantly cheaper.

The Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 is not a tablet suited for most people. It’s big, it’s relatively heavy and it’s quite expensive. However, this is an area without many rivals. If a 10.1-inch screen isn’t big enough and a pressure sensitive stylus is a must, this is actually a very successful tablet. The Samsung UI remains overwrought in places, but looks better than before and works pretty well on the big screen. And the S Pen works better than ever before thanks to the increased screen space.

Our general experience with the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 has been positive. While the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 does cost a hefty £650, it comes loaded with a number of key services and features that help justify it. On a hardware level, the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 features a decent screen, powerful processor and a decent battery life. Samsung's backed these impressive specs up with a number of security services and applications, such as S Note and Knox. The combination of top-end hardware and useful productivity and security-focused software make the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 one of the safest and most business-friendly tablets available.

Comment

Model:

The Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 is designed for the "prosumer" with extensive productivity and multitasking being the focus. It has a stunning 12.2" WQXGA display with plenty of real estate. The Enhanced Multi Window feature splits the screen in four different ways for seamless multitasking.

While the LTE model uses a Snapdragon 800, 2.3 GHz Quad-Core, the 3G model features an Exynos 5 Octa-Core (1.9GHz Quad + 1.3GHz Quad). Both models come with 3 GB RAM, a choice of 32 GB or 64 GB depending on the region and the capability to support micro SD up to 64 GB. The device is fitted with an 8 MP rear and a 2 MP front camera. Other hardware features include USB 3.0, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS+GLONASS. The entire setup is powered with a 9500 mAh battery giving it plenty of juice. The LTE model weighs 735 g and the 3G model weighs 750g and comes in two colors, black or white.

The S Pen is improved with the hover shortcut function found on all latest Note series devices. Handwriting recognition is also enhanced which makes it a delight to use on such a big screen. The device also introduces a new application called Remote PC. This allows the user to remotely access a PC or Mac directly from the tablet. The Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 runs on Android 4.4.2 (KitKat), is definitely well-built, and will satisfy users looking for a larger screen to work on.

ARM Mali-T628 MP6: OpenGL ES 3.0 capable graphics card for smartphones and tablets (e.g. included in the Exynos 5420 and 5422 with 6 cores).

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


5420 Octa:

Exynos 5 SoC with four Cortex-A15 cores, four Cortex-A7 cores and an ARM Mali-T628 MP6 GPU. Successor to the Exynos 5410.

12.20":

This range of display format is largely the upper limit for tablets and the lower limit for subnotebooks.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small in size and therefore easily portable. The tiny display has the added advantage of requiring little power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is exhausting for the eyes. High resolutions, which one is used to from a standard laptop, are almost not usable.

The same applies to tablets in this size range.
