Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 - CNETFrance

class=”summary”>

div Meanwhile our full review, here are our first impressions. Samsung

stuff a little more its range of tablet Galaxy Tab and Note multiplying references and diagonals at risk ’cause cannibalization.

There is something for everyone and every type of use in the family Samsung Tab, Note and Note Pro , the general public seeking ultra-mobility with Tab 7 inch professional wanting an ultra-convenient tool for presentations.

A large screen for work


It is this professional target Samsung intends to address with a carved meeting to shine machine. A tempting datasheet with a large screen of 12.2 inches PLS 16/10 format of 2560 x 1600 pixels (247 DPI) with a fine display detailed and always excellent viewing angles and contrast.

Configuration solid base of Exynos 4 + 4 cores (Cortex A15 1.9 GHz for intensive tasks, Cortex A7 1.3 for all-comers) for the Wi-Fi version of Snapdragon or 800 4 cores 2 3 GHz for 4G (cat4 150 Mbps max) release. Both hardware solutions are backed by 3GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage, expandable via microSD slot classic. 64GB version does not seem relevant.

Another issue is the 8 megapixel sensor with flash back and a 2 megapixel front allowing Full HD video conferencing.

Over generations, the good battery range Note has become a part of the DNA of this product branch. With a battery of 9500 mAh (or 2500 more than 10.1 Note adopting the same screen and configuration definition) Note Pro 12.2 should not deviate from this tradition and this could well be a big plus in the eyes of pro . A check in a more comprehensive test.

A 12-inch rather comfortable to use


If this maximum format makes sense on convertible / hybrid with a PC mode + keyboard for a tablet for work and view content, we were rather skeptical about a “single” tablet of this size.
The hand grip was very positive, with 753 g on the balance machine is not too heavy and thin (8 mm) contributes to the good impression of compactness … to 12 inches.

With a footprint of 295.6 x 204 x 8 mm it is not very far from a Surface 2 (274.6 x 172.5 x 8.9 mm) with a slab of 10.6 inch or Pro 2 Surface (275 x 173 x 13 mm) also equipped with a 10.6 screen.

Side finish and perceived quality, the progress made since the Note 3 are still ahead. Nevertheless, flexible plastic ambiance and faux leather back and reign always seems also less rewarding than machines Microsoft to name a few. To accept a compromise to maintain a low weight (753G vs 676 for 2 and 907 for Surface Surface Pro 2).

We always appreciate the speakers on the sides with good specialization sound that seems loud and clear and the connection remains rich with infrared, USB 3 (Host to take control of the devices and MHL for video output).

For

pro


For professional target, many exclusive tools are available. PC Remote to take control of any PC since its tablet Hancom Office as an alternative to Microsoft Office and eMeeting, very impressive solution that lets you share and interact in live (highlight an item pen for example) a presentation on multiple tablets connected to the same network.

tool that could be very useful for pros but unfortunately works of Note Note Pro Pro, shame!
Note requires, we find that the Wacom pen proven and Air command tool giving access to the memo, scrapbooking, annotations on the screen, finder to search via keyword or the ability to draw a window to bring up an application.

Alongside the latest Android KitKat and Samsung TouchWiz overlay new that showcases the content, multitasking windowing mode is now extended to 4 applications, and still shows as practical to copy / paste.


Note

A well thought but salt


We were tanks, our first impressions prove ultimately good. Note Pro 12.2 is consistent, well thought out and very comfortable format could appeal to pros during their presentations or the general public, wealthy, looking for a great touch slate to put on the coffee table.

For pros, it will still accept a perceived less rewarding than Apple or Microsoft machine quality, a little gap blurred by the very good display proposed top-flight performance, software and stylus effective.

Note that a keyboard to accompany this Note Pro will be available in late March against 129 euros, a mouse, repeating the same styling cues that the tablet will, she sold 39 euros, while that a leatherette cover will cost 69 euros.

after the tariff logic of this rather expensive Note Pro Accessories, 749 euros in 32 GB and Wi-Fi with an offer to pay 100 euros, this Note Pro becomes really attractive face surfaces, it will however decide quickly, ODR current until March 31.

4G version will be marketed during March from 849 euros (749 euros with the ODR) in 32 GB
