My wife wants a 10in tablet to replace her kindle fire. I was worried about the screen specs, but y'all have mostly put those to rest.

How's it do for gaming and videos? Any lag or stuttering? Also is it really only 32gb card or will 64gb work as well?

Jellybean hit in the USA yet?

Appreciate any answers.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
It can play the most resource hungry games without breaking a sweat. Though the problem is games like Modern Combat cannot not be purchased upfront on Google Play as it says they are not compatible but they work just fine on note.

No JB has not hit US except for Germany it has not released anywhere else for the wifi version.

Both will work well depends on how fast your card is would suggest class 10 or higher.

No lags if you get any just remove the stupid no good samsung widgets and things should be fine.

On a 10 inch video look better then you think it would look considering the specs on paper yes there is some difference when you compare it with nexus 10 but then that is something you have accepted
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] nrfitchett4:
Just think 16gb for a 10 inch tablet is not enough. On Road trips be nice to load a card full of videos.

Thanks for responding. Heading to best buy this morning to play.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
Yes just purchase a 64GB SD card the new samsung ones are really good but very expensive the other option is Sandisk Class 10
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] blcistheking:
how is the web browsing experience with multiple tabs open?

like 5-7 tabs with a decent amount of pictures such as the verge website?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
Ok heres what i did since this is something I had not tested

I opened the followings sites

XDA

Theverge

Androidos

Theverge (again)

Wwe (one of the most graphics intensive site)

Bgr

Formula

no lag whatsoever just half a second pause when you switch tabs but would not call that lag
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] blcistheking:
thanks for doing that.

i think ill be picking one up tomorrow from best buy then

one more quick question, does the default browser have user agent options?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
what do you mean by user agent ??
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] blcistheking:
the ability to switch from android to desktop or ipad mode in the browser so that it automatically displays the desktop or ipad version of a website rather than the mobile version
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
Yes you have the desktop mode option no Ipad option though
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] seeto84:
Hi all. Thanks xda for such wondeful active forum.

Initially i was deciding on ipad and 10.1.

I am glad i bought this device especially the spen makes the whole device such beauty.

It has been 2 months and i am still loving it. :)

total crap slow, unsecure no updates from Samsung still on ICS, screen looks cheap 149ppi only price to high for total rubbish!!! Not recommend will give for free. Will bet for Apple with retina display
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] JJEgan:
Your posts make interesting reading .

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
I would love to get a note for free should I PM you my address so that you can courier the same across to me.

Just curious to know when mean crap, slow and unsecure what do you mean by that what problems have you face I am sure when you say slow it must take ages to boot, application must take minutes to load and even more to install and when you said unsecure someone must have hacked into your not and must have stolen some data right ?? I would love to know in detail what you mean by these words.

You are an Apple fan, but I was just wondering what is that an Ipad can do which a note cant, can you please tell me so that even I will give away my device from free and get an IPAD.

Sorry i ask many question as very inexperience so would love learn from an expert like you!!!

First need read news across internet:

Major vulnerability found in Exynos 4210 and Exynos 4412 devices

A Major vulnerability has been found on devices using Exynos 4 SoC and Samsung Kernel sources. The vulnerability was discovered by XDA-Developers’ forum member alephzain. The security flaw is actually in the kernel which makes the device R/W by all users, apps and gives access to full Physical Memory. In short, all Exynos 4 devices come pre-rooted directly from the manufacturers. We can give you one bad news and one good news about this discovery.

The bad news is that any application downloaded from the Google Play Store or installed manually can take FULL control of the device and cause permanent damage, even if the device is not rooted. XDA-Developers’ Elite Recognized Developer Supercurio is already working on an app which can patch this security hole and prevent apps from taking over the device, he will release the app soon on Google Play Store.

The good news is that with this security flaw rooting an Exynos 4 device has just got a lot easier. XDA-Developers’ Elite Recognized Developer Chainfire has already released an app called ExynosAbuse which can root a device with just a single click of a button. Now you don’t have to flash unsecure or pre-rooted kernels through odin/heimdall on your Samsung device, all can be done via an app.

Exynos 4210 devices:

- Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000

- Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100

- AT&T Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I777

Exynos 4412 devices:

- Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300

- LTE Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9305

- Samsung Galaxy Note 2 GT-N7100

- LTE Samsung Galaxy Note 2 GT-N7105

- Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8000

- Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8010

- Meizu MX

Device have lag I mean slow, responsive very bad, screen pixels rubbish compere to another devices on ICS 50-50 but on 4.1.1 gallery text looks awfully, priced at £499 stupid. Firmware updates only one time a year..........

forget I am not apple fan, just like how apple firmware made fast and responsive compere to android... sorry just my opinion :cyclops:

149 ppi

Let's not complain about the screen. You knew what it was before you bought it.

So I've had my note for about 3 months now. I've gotta say, even for a 149 ppi device, the screen kicks some pretty good butt.

The way I see it, this device gets the job done. I'm not working with extrememly high quality pictures, so I won't benefit from "retina" displays or super high ppi's.

If I wanna watch a movie, I can, and pretty damn clear at that.

As for the updates, while I would love to have them on more of a regular basis, we've got some amazing developers on this site working on some great roms. We may not have a bunch right NOW, but we will.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] yammy6200:
Yep, the display res put me off buying at first but I got to play with a mate's Tab 2 10.1 and decided to buy the Note. But the overall factor was the price which with all the cashback etc. would cost me £222.37.:D

I thought it was a good price.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] hamacting:
Hardware great, software so all-but

This is posted after just a few hours of playing with my shiny new Galaxy Note 10.1, but my feeling is that the hardware is great, but that the software is a massive exercise in "almost".

Example: SNote. It's good at what it does, but think how useful it could be if it was done really well. Go to a meeting, write notes. Get the program to convert them later to text for editing. Put a special mark next to a line to have it marked as an action.

The diagramming in S-Note is pretty good, but could be taken so much further. Have "templates" for electronics, or UML, or other specialised diagramming systems for particular trades. Load them up to tell S-Note what kind of task you're diagramming for, then it matches to those templates. Make individual objects movable, scaleable, rotatable, let you highlight a few and say "make same size"... you could easily envisage something that could blow Visio out of the water.

Or the BBC iPlayer - it looks like something roughed up to prove to management that the concept is valid... how's about assigning a development team to it?

The BBC news app isn't much better - what happened to the four-way-scroll tiles interface from android phones? The tablet interface is horrible...

I am sure that apps will appear that will do all these things and more - please do recommend anything that you see that can do better than the ones listed above - but for now I feel as if we're back in 1996, Windows 95 has just come out and we're trying to understand how to write decent apps for this new system...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] SCClockDr:
Note N8013 here. I am quite pleased with the product. It will easily run a full day and most likely go 2 between charges. It was a breeze to Root and do a Nandroid backup. It has run every App I've thrown at it.

Could it be better, of course, but as with all techy stuff the next new wiz bang is already in the pipeline. This should do me for several years.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] JJEgan:
BBC own Iplayer and historically it has not been the best of apps . New one is due out soon though .

Developers for apps using Android have not really caught on to Tablets yet .

But with the large volume of all Tablets sold in December expect the apps to improve .

too bad that flashplayer doesnt support on JB version.. ;/
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] midas69:
I am now on day 9 of being the hospital. This thing has been fantastic. Kind of scary being without a computer if anything goes wrong, but it's been flawless. Only downside is the fear that it's going to get stolen.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
You need to understand nothing is the perfect this is the first version of Snote and hence it is expected not to be perfect but it will evolve with time tell me an app which can better Snote in all aspect of what Snote does.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] stevessvt:
So, on my quest for the perfect android tablet, I found a nexus 10 at Wal-Mart and scooped it up. Yes, the screen is gorgeous, if a tad unsaturated. But, playing high stress games would make the cpu overheat and make the game turn in to a slide show. So it went back. Picked a Asus tf700, again, pretty screen. But I should have researched it more. It has a problem with it's memory being incredibly slow. Pull up a web page and it takes forever to load, and installing apps was agonizing. So back it went, and picked up a note 10.1, which I should have started with, since I have a note 2. Screen, compared to the Asus and nexus, is a bit grainy, but much more vibrant then those. Speed wise it seems every bit as fast as the nexus 10, but without all the horrible slowdown. I'm really enjoying it, and I think I found a keeper.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] wastemantej:
Today I saw a post in Engadget about patent of LG over our tablet regarding the viewing angles.

Actually it is quite funny :laugh:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] skarpass:
I still use flashplayer on jb and not have any problems
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
Its not the issue with Note more with android not supporting it I think if you had a old device where you had downloaded the player it will still be there in google play and you can download it by going into my apps section
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] midas69:
A followup on my own post. I finally left the hospital on Friday. I am just so absolutely pleased with how this tablet performed for such an extended period away from home. It was great being able to take notes when the doctors and nurses were giving me instructions. Loved being able to watch movies, read news and keep up on all the forums I read on a daily basis. I used it day and night, and middle of the night since I couldn't sleep more than 2 hours at a time, and I think I charged it once the entire time. Not a single lockup, not a single force close.

This thing was absolutely flawless in every way but one. The only thing I couldn't do was get the Peel software to control the room TV. It was some weird brand (HCI) that I never heard of. I tried every code in the database, but nothing worked. Hard to blame the Note for that one shortcoming.

BTW, one funny aside. The nurses claimed that I was the first person they had ever seen using Skype in the hospital. Maybe nobody had ever done it in front of them before, but I wanted to show them my little puppy.

Seriously, the Note 10.1 kept me sane while being confined and completely doped up for 10 days. I couldn't have survived without it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Peter Galbavy:
Well, I succumbed. I have had a Asus TF201 for a year and my last two phones have been a Note (dropped on concrete a month before the Note 2 launch... oops) and now a Note 2.

Samsung are doing their £50 cash-back until today in the UK and while the prices may simply drop in the new year I wanted new toys to play with. I bought a grey and a white 3G 10.1 from John Lewis on the weekend - one for my elderly mother to try to use as she cannot get on with a mouse because of stiff fingers / arthritis. Oddly the grey one came with 4.0.4 installed and I went through the upgrade while the white one was already on 4.1.1 - box sealed, so not a return.

First impressions are that the tablet is far more responsive that the TF201, as expected, and that apart from the absence of a HDMI port I am happy with the hardware. The tablet fits into my TF201 case(s) except for the cutouts which I may well now "engineer" with a craft knife as my real leather Tuff Luv case is far too nice to not re-use and even if I sell the TF201 the case will not be to most peoples taste.

The 3G worked perfectly with my "spare" 3UK SIM which is now in my mother's tablet as she doesn't yet have broadband at home never having had a regular need yet. I will probably get another 3UK SIM for mine as T-Mobile are p***ing me off even if they are cheaper for data.

I have not immediate intention of rooting it but given it's somewhat easier than the TF201 from the few posts I have read I may do if nothing else to let System Tuner Pro etc. work fully.

Look forward to catching up with threads, but so far, so good.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] PointyUK:
Having had a n Asus Prime TF201 for nearly a year, I finally had enough of it and treated myself to the Note 10.1. With discounts and promotions it's a bargain @ £268. Almost half the price I paid for the TF201 and twice the machine. Don't get my wrong I am an Asus fanboy and partner, but feel really let down with the TF201. Constant crashes and reboots, that I kept hoping would be fixed by a firmware update, then the other day I gave up with it and got the Note 10.1.

I have been using the Note for a week now, not a single app crash. It's much faster and more responsive than the Asus. Wifi and GPS are much better, battery life seems better for me too. I have the Allshare Cast Dongle for the TV, and this has worked flawlessly the few times I have used it. A far better experience than the TF201, with an Asus wifi HDMI TX/RX. For me whenever I plugged in the HDMI cable to the TF201, the touchscreen would become really messed up and either not recognize my input or just go mad all by itself. (As a bonus I can use the Allshare Cast with my S3 too)

I would have no hesitation in recommending the Note 10.1 over the Asus tablets.

Les

This most probably would be my last post before being banned, I do not like being threatened I was told to reduce the size of my signature but the tone in which I was told that is something I do not appreciate specially by a mod who has no moderation in this part of forum and who has the signature the same size as me.

If he had asked me politely I have would have appreciated and done the needful immediately but since he has used a tone which for me is threatening I have replied to him for which most probably he will ban me.

I was anyways gone the reduce the size as part of my signature which was wishing 2013 only temp.

Anyways if I am banned I will come back with a different ID but will be a silent member and never contribute again to this forum and all my download links will be taken down.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] kousakasan:
The Note 10.1 comes with an app called Kno - Textbooks for Android. Any books, brochures, magazines even a bible, as long as it is in pdf format, can be read and underlined/highlighted. You should be able to find a your translation online at no charge. I wouldn't trust a place that would charge you for one.

I must say though, the Bible is a large book to search through in pdf format. There are Bible apps easier to use, but I don't know of one that lets you make notations. I use a NWT app that lets me pick the book and chapter, its much easier than the pdf readers that only have links to the books, you then have to scroll through the chapters.

I'm thinking of starting a forum with tips and tricks on using this tablet for bible study, but I'm not sure if can start a forum yet, or where to put it.

Also, I don't want to have it turn into a flame war forum, as many forums do that touch on religion, politics, etc etc

LTE Version of Note to be out in USA Soon!!!

An LTE-equipped Galaxy Note 10.1 slipped through the FCC's doors last month, but it was missing 4G bands that would allow it to work with American carriers. Now, however, the FCC has rubber-stamped a model with Verizon-friendly LTE

Seriously you should try the crayon physics game out, its pretty challenging the further in the game. I dont consider it a kids game because of how challenging it is.

I was nervous because I wasn't sure if i made the right choice of buying the Note 10.1 (actually my girl bought it for me for Christmas(shes a keeper!)) I love it but i seen the Nexus 10 had better hardware. The nexus 10 does not have an expandable micro sd slot and that is why i chose to want this tablet and thanks to this post i am a lot more comfortable I did. Thanks

Off topic;

how do you show what devices you own when posting? link to the forum maybe?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] NadMaj:
i think it depends on samsung wether our note 10.1 will contend with other tab beasts like the nexus 10.. hope they will keep giving us

updates coz the way i see it they are giving the note 2 way more importance than us.. maybe because of sales note 10.1 aren't as popular as

the note 2.. but we are all note 10.1 owners and we know just how awesome it is.. :highfive:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] conan1600:
I tried out several tablets before this one including the tf300 and tf700. I rooted them and installed clean rom with a 1.8ghz overclock and then proceded to patch and flash 3 or4 things to get around the i/o issues in those tabs. The end result was they did pretty good. But this, well this is a thing of beauty! The note 10.1 just feels great. It just seems so much faster and more polished that ive finally declared my loyalty to it. This one will last more than 30 days. What a great machine samsung made in the note 10.1 n8013.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Zeblade:
" It just seems so much faster and more polished " <------ This...

I like allot of you bought so many others one being the Ipad mini. I really liked how I could spit the keyboard and lol the Note can. For me the sad thing is the Note 10.1 came 2nd and I got to play with it more. I like the hand writing, drawing and so forth. I get the Note and didn't do anything.. was watching the sample video and there was this icon to the upper right so I click it and then my LG TV shows the video playing haha. Wouldn't you know it, the Note was the one I didn't want to try but broke down and did..
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] RussellEstridge25:
I also tried the tf300 and the tf700 and the sony experia lol. Kept avoiding the note for some reason, probably the reviews and look. At first i thought it looked and felt cheap but really it feels great and looks great too. I like the plastic on my hands better than the metal.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
The problem with note is not anything to do with the device but the biased reviews it got from so called tech sites which wrote it off I think they should called apple marketing sites rather then tech site bunch of idiots who are paid to give negative reviews

With the delay in the US version coming out I am not sure what Samsung is upto to bec one reason could have been modifications to the os to avoid patent suites but since the LTE version is almost out and not much difference in the OS that seems not to be case

The Tab 7 and 10.1 both have had JB released for the US, so it cant be because of anything Apple related.

Samsung has stated that it will release the 4.2.1 update for Samsung S3 and Note 2 in the second quater of 2013. But there is no news on when and whether note 10.1 will get the update so its good and bad news

I think putting this survey in the Galaxy note 10.1 forum section is like putting a poll on 'who wins the super bowl' IN NEW ENGLAND. You expect it to be overly bias.

That said. Outside of the ****ty screen, this is best tablet I have used for two reasons:

S-Pen and how I use it at work.

The fact that all Video files (even 10 gig files) work perfectly.
