Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Samsung Galaxy NotePro & TabPro at CES 2014!”.
Hey what is up guys, I’m Kim PhD here, and I am at the Samsung booth at CES 2014. You guys told me you wanted to see their new tablets, so they have the Galaxy Note pro, which is a twelve point, two inch tablet, but they also have three new Galaxy Tab pros and 8.4 inch, a 10.1 inch and a twelve point two inch. So this is the whole new Pro Series. Lineup that’s been introduced here at CES, no there’s no galaxy s5 here and there’s definitely known who Nexus 10 here as much as I would love it to be. But these are actually some interesting tablets and it seemed like a lot of you guys were curious too.
So take a look here. Of course, they have all the same full other back and stitching as the Galaxy Note 3’s, and they actually kind of feel the same way in the hand, including the difference between colors and black versus white. And the series is, of course, a whole range of screen sizes, as I mentioned as Samsung likes to do, but you don’t really realize how big a 12 point. 2 inch tablet is into to get some perspective. So here it is here’s the Galaxy Note 3. As we know, that’s a 5.7 inch display and then we have the Galaxy Tab pro 8.4, with, of course, an 8.4 inch display.
Then the Tab pro 10.1 and I can guess what the the final screen size is. The Tab pro 12.2, which is the same size as the note Pro they have a twelve point – two inch display pretty massive. Now I guess the next logical question is: what’s the difference between the Tab, pro 12.2 and the note pro that’s the same size and people have Samsung that I spoke with basically just said the stylus, that’s the that’s the difference, it’s just the stylus. So the Galaxy Note pro is essentially a Galaxy Tab, pro 12.2 plus the stylus and the stylus features which have me curious to see if that might actually cost more. But at least one advantage of having such a large tablet with a 12 point 2 inch display is that you get a full-sized QWERTY keyboard and Samsung is really proud of that and demoing it on as many tablets as they could.
But that’s just the 12 point. 2 inch, but really these are Pro Series tablets, so Samsung is antha sizing the multitasking features, in fact these larger ones actually allow for 4 way, multitasking mode that lets you drag an app to each corner of the display and use them all. At the same time, same way as you could on the note 3, except now, you have four and that’s actually really useful with all these screen real estate. So this Plus Samsung’s floating window means you actually can probably get some serious work done with multiple applications open at the same time or so at least they claim – and this is all in the new TouchWiz on top of Android 4.4 KitKat on all these tablets – and You can kind of tell by the great color scheme and the notification bar and by some other subtle changes, but really it’s all about TouchWiz again and you could probably never tell what version of Android it’s running if you didn’t check, but the notification bar is the Biggest change, I noticed it’s way more colorful and bold, which is pretty amazing, considering how colorful and bold TouchWiz was in the first place and there’s also a new whole tablet, UI with all these panels. That reminds me a lot of chameleon, which was a launcher on Android earlier that allowed you to move around and resize the different panes.
This basically does the same thing on a sort of a TouchWiz colorful level, but other than that the new hardware was pretty much. What we’d expected out of Samsung? There were, unfortunately, no front-facing speakers to be found on any of these tablets, but something really really nice is that they all have 2560 by 1600 displays, including the 8.4 inch tab pro, which i think makes it the highest pixel density. In any midsize tablet form factor, the rest of them are up to 1080p, so that’s really nice, and it also has an 80 200 million power battery to power it all, and it’s not really all that thick as a high-end processor, two gigs of ram sounds like A really nice device and, of course I need to get my hands on it and test it for myself to know, but if it’s actually as good as it seems, I’m pretty excited for the Tab. Pro 8.4 – oh, and also these pro series tablets all have sim cards, so you could technically make phone calls from them if you’re into that, but either way that’s minute guys.
I was actually really excited to see these new tablets. The pro series, even though the note and Tab series aren’t going anywhere, because these are the first devices running Android 4.4 KitKat and that have TouchWiz on top of them. So we’ll likely see a lot of these new improvements, maybe not the multitasking. But a lot of the enhancements in something like the galaxy s5 when it comes out this year with Android 4.4 KitKat on that. So that’s our little sneak peek at the new TouchWiz on phones, but either way that’s been it. So let me know what you guys: think of them, thanks for watching talk to you guys in the next one peace .
