[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] topolovich:
Just my random, non-requested input... The Asus will never beat the Samsung quality wise, but I find that I go through devices faster than Charlie Sheen goes through cocaine so this is a moot point to me. That said, this seems like a no-brainer to me. I have the utmost respect for everyone that has added their input and I by no means want to sound like a fanboy or come across disrespectful, but I literally have no idea how this is a debate. They are different products and I think the Asus is the clear winner. Here is why:

What does the Note have to offer? Quality and Stylus. I have never own a product with a stylus like this and although it sounds amazing it is probably more of a novelty than anything.

The Asus? Tegra 3 and Dock. The Tegra 3 is unreal. I use my tablet for work and gaming. The Tegra 3 games are console quality. I have a wireless Xbox 360 controller set up to it and it's amazing. The simple fact that I can hook that controller up is huge too. The added ports in general add so many options it's not even fair to compare them. On my Transformer I have two full USB ports, one full SD port, a microSD port, mini-HDMI, microUSB, etc. I saw someone posted you could duplicate that with add-ons. I beg to differ. I would challenge anyone to attach more devices (and have them operational) to a Galaxy Note/Tab than I can to an Asus tablet with dock. Full USB alone is amazing. Two of them. I am not sure what the Infinity has but it is probably similar. Yes you can get an OTG cable, but are you going to use an OTG cable connected to a USB hub and then connected to your devices to duplicate the multiple connections of the Asus? Is it going to work? Doubtful. Even if it does, I can use the same setup, and then connect to the two full USB ports and it is no competition. Did I mention that I can do all of that and have the device powered up for at least double the amount of time? The battery in the dock is so often overlooked, but when you want to actually use your device on the go (that's a big part of what it was intended for , no?) then battery life is h-h-huge. Add in Supercurio's Voodoo sound hacks/apps for the Asus products (they work with Samsung too so this doesn't give either an advantage - just adds value to both) and I have a multimedia beast with battery life, a variety of connections, gaming ability, etc. I like getting a lot out of what I paid for. Along that line of thinking I do have a complaint about Asus though. The dock piece is not universal. Asus said they would be (like my transformer dock would work with the Prime, 300, 700, etc.) but that is not the case. Shelling out $150 for each new tablet is not great. So, in a way, Asus sucks in terms of looking out for the consumer, but they make some pretty nifty devices (padfone anyone?) so they are good too. That makes no sense, but I'm sticking to it. :)

I guess the way I see it is unless you need to physically draw on your tablet the stylus is nothing major. I can type a million times faster than I can write so outside of artistic endeavors, the stylus doesn't add any practical advantage for me.

So yeah, that's my input. Please note that in the PHONE game, the Galaxy products are king. I love Samsung. I just don't think the Transformers can be touched in the tablet game. The amount of things you can do with them still surprises me to this day. I had no idea how much I would use my tranny for (Transformer guys - I gave up on transexuals a couple years ago - haha) until I actually had it. I didn't know how great it was until I got my Nexus 7 either. The added battery life, the Tegra stuff, the ports, etc. make it downright amazing.

Cheers...
