That is not the successor to the Galaxy Tab 10.1, its is the 10.1 inch version of the Galaxy Tab 2. Its just really confusing naming used.
It is a low/mid end device and the Galaxy Note 10.1 will be high end.

Let's just hope the galaxy note 10.1 comes with Samsung's Exynos quad-core chips

The 10.1 is the 10.1 inch version of the Galaxy Tab, hence its called Galaxy Tab 10.1. The Tab 2 10.1 inch is the successor, not the Note 10.1".

I think it has gsm calling functions that we miss but it lacks (gyroscope , flash in camera , 2mp front camera , and thicker and heavier ) , may be we could benifit from a port for its rom , it is packed with many useful apps

I'm kind of hoping this is the case but I cannot find any supporting information, albeit at this early stage. I suspect it may not, while GSM calling capabilities will be offered on the 10.1 Note as one point of differentiation, allowing Samsung to position the 10.1. Note somewhat above the new 10.1 Tab2?
Are there any details you have which lead you to believe GSM calling may be an option on the new 10.1 Tab2?

If a forum full of us nerds (or half nerds) can't figure out Samsung's lineup then they are in a lot of trouble. The galaxy 2 10.1 is not our 10.1's successor. Its a 10" version of the new normal galaxy tab. I believe our tabs successor will be called so something else. The dual core 1ghz processor in the galaxy 2 seems like a step back. There's no way a fatter, slower version of our 10.1 can be the next iteration. But the fact that we have to argue about what is what does not bode well for their marketing strategy. Fix your **** Sammy.

OK, thanks, I see that...

"Tablet with support for GSM voice communication, SMS, and MMS."
That would represent a significant benefit over the original 3G Tab 10.1, so now I am wondering if there is new hardware in the Tab2, or maybe the Tab2 ICS ROM might somehow retroactively activate this feature in (3G) versions of the original Tab 10.1.
It's early, and these products have not even been officially launched but my understand now is that there are two new 10" tablet products:
1.) Tab2 10.1
2.) Note 10.1
How these are ultimately positioned with respect to each other, and any previous version(s), remains to be seen/heard, I guess.

OK so after seeing the Galaxy Note 10.1 it is not the successor to our Tab 10.1, but the the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 certainly isn't either. I'm thinking they will have something new for us at their Galaxy SIII conference whenever that is.

It's official, TMobile has cut the galaxy note out. Why? Probably has to do with the fact that the note 2 is around the corner. And I waited all this time for the note to come out on TMobile! Late to the party note, thanks. Although I did get a note and I love it for it's huge display and stylus, there is nothing else impressive about this phone. All I can do now is wait for the note 2, will be announced thus month on the 29th, and enjoy the last few breaths this note has left,in it.

Well, besides the brick-bug which can easily be avoided, what is there to dislike? I mean, other than the quad-core behemoths, the Note is still a very powerful device and the large screen plus S Pen just add to its capabilities. If you don't find a use for the S Pen, or larger screen, then why not just get an Galaxy S3 or HTC One X rather than wait for the Note 2?

IM guessing that's directed at me since you did quote me. X) I actually traded my have for the TMobile note last week. I love the big screen and the stylus, but the note could have definitely used more ram. Most of the time at Any given usage the note is occupying more than %85 of ram and it's clearly obvious. I love the note, just wish the size matched it's internal hardware specs. Note 2 is ganna rock.

Speaking about RAM, yes I agree Note has bare minimum available to run smoothly. When I run Tasker with sweet sounding Loquendo TTS engine announcing vital info, things start to load afresh when apps are switched.

I have a T-Mobile version of the Galaxy S3. The question is; is it worth paying full price for the Galaxy Note 2 if you have A Galaxy S3? Is it a huge enough upgrade to pay full retail price?

No doubt buddy ...even i was in same dilemma..... but after usng note 2 the experience is rocking...large screen ...extra smoothness.....extra ram.....and S pen.....FROM MY POINT DEFINATELY WORTH EVERY PENNY ..
AND DONT WORRY ABOUT SIZE U WILL GET USE TO IT then s3 will feel like a baby in hand ....rest all ur wish and desire..
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Well, if you sell your S3, you can significantly offset the cost of a Note 2. I've never owned an S3, but the times I've used them, they seem like a watered down Note. No S-Pen, no incredible battery life, no split screen apps, etc. I basically look at the S3 and feel it's a small Note with none of the benefits. It's kinda like a dumbphone, if you will, compared to the Note.
My take anyway. Up to you if it's worth the cost.
I have Jellybean on my S3 and still not sure if I should get the Note 2. If I still had the Galaxy 2 then I would upgrade in a heart beat.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I upgraded from S3 and I am very happy I did. Got bored with the S3 very quickly as I didnt find that big of an upgrade over the S2. But the Note2, best phone I ever had by far. It really is amazing. So go for it and I am sure you wont regret it.

I will wait a little bit for the pricing of the note 2 to come down before I buy it full pricing whether on eBay or a holiday promo.

Both excellent devices, the Note 2 is ideal if you want a bigger screen and more power, but either way the S3 is a great device.

The Note 10.1 is absolutely nothing close to the more than year old Tab 10.1. No piece of hardware is similar.

The note series is one of Samsung's flagship lines.
The 'mega' phones, on the other hand, seem to be a low/mid-range phone for people who don't need much in a phone, but want a large screen.
It's a pretty good idea, not sure how it'll sell though.
- Frank
The main difference between the Note series and any of the others (S, Mega) is that the Note series comes with a stylus.
Hence 'Note'. For note taking.
So no. I doubt the Mega series will "replace" the Note series per se.
But it might help cater more for those who want a large phone and never use their stylus.
Well, I can count up to three people I know who bought their notes just for their big screen, and almost never use the stylus.
So it might not be a "replacement", in the full meaning of the word, but more like a better option for all of the people who just don't need an stylus in their phones, specially if it comes with the not-wacom-screen discount...
I seriously doubt it, For me this mega series is just too big. I consider anything above 5.6 inches to be a tablet.
The good news is that we now know the note 3 wont be 6.3 ins.
Looking at his expected specs, especially the display, Samsung doesn't want it to be a high-end phone like the note series. It will, again it's just a rumour, have a LCD display with the same resolution as ours, but with a way lower dpi value. That's exactly the point why I'm not really interested in this device.

thank God, i never wanted note 3 to be more than 6 in. now i can hope for a 5.7-5.9 in note 3 wow. it would be an ideal device if its 5.7 in.

Aimed at different markets - I can see this more for the "developing" markets where the majority can't afford a phone and a tablet but want both.
its not just specific to the developing countries. Even elsewhere people dont like multiple devices with scattered data. unified devices are appreciated by all these days

note forever........most people cant diatinguish between the phones coz of the 99% similarity. But the stylus of the note puts a clas to it. for professionals note is the way to go.
For a resident doc its the best device i have ever had i my life. so note 3 for me. its been more than a year and my device never gave me any impression that my tech is obsolete. Good updates and full functional.
So samsung i appreciate you for this.

There are over 70 samsung galaxy devices. By the way the Note has an S Pen
Galaxy Mega = Note 2 - S pen

I would say more:
Galaxy Mega = Note 2 - S pen - Superamoled screen
And Mega line will probably stick to plastic while Note3 and S5 will change body material to single aluminium body frame.
It will be another option, that's all.
I think many people would buy a slightly improved Mega 5.8 over a Note. Put the 6.3 specs into the 5.8's body and change the screen for AMOLED and I think it would appeal to many.
if note 3 is over 6 inches then bye bye samsung. 5.8 should be the size of the note 3 and what samsung did, wasted the ideal smartphone size on a useless junk. i dont think samsung sales this year will be sky high.
i think their downhill is started because they are packing the market with junk like galaxy grand, s3 mini, note 8.0 and now this galaxy mega.
there is no development on these devices and that they are not the flagships yet they will compete with samsungs own flagships rather than competing with the rivals.
so samsung ur time to shine is gone. seems like u have burnt all he fuel and is now becoming the dying star
just a thought
