Samsung officially unveils the Galaxy Tab A for Korean markets, with S Pen also mentions the United States and the UK.
Here is the link from Neowin.net
http://www.neowin.net/news/samsung-officially-unveils-the-galaxy-tab-a-for-korean-markets-with-s-pen
"Galaxy Tab A" is not a samsung note 10.1
And some of the specs are even worse then the Note 10.1 (2014) specs, e.g. display.
So no, this is not an upgrade.
The title of this thread needs to be changed. This is not an announcement about a Note tablet.

Even though it is not listed as a Note it is still is a note device since it includes and SPen. It is just semantics.
No, it's not a Note device. It's a tablet with an pen. Would a iPhone with a SPen a Note device? It's called the Galaxy Tab A for a reason. The reason being it's a Galaxy Tab A. Not a Note.

Yes, it could have been semantics if this tablet had specifications that were an improvement over the Note 10.1 2014. They are not. The device resolution is lower than that of the Note 10.1 2014.
However, it is true that Samsung has released a tablet that Samsung regards as the continuation of the Note 10.1 series. Unfortunately for those who like Android, these tablets are powered by Windows 10.
No semantics at all, a Tab A device is not a Note. This Tab A device is a continuation of the Tab A 9.7 with S-Pen, not a follow up to the Note line.

Sorry to get back to that thread, but what tablet do you think of?
Unfortunately the tap pro s has no stylus.
Is there a spen version of it available?

The Galaxy Note 10.1 is and will stay for some time the best Tablet in the Universe.
The only thing that can beat a Galaxy Note 10.1 is a Galaxy Note 10.1 2.

How long should we wait for samsung providing the upgrade for Android 5??
P.S. Android 4.2 released in Nov 2012...
nice! lets hope the clean up and don't leave behind any nasty bugs eh?
I do hope this is right. I love this tablet and I think there is no better at the moment.
Hopefully we get 4.2.2 and the Key Lime Pie. We could do with updated S Note and other apps as well. But, will samsung introduce the phone ui in 4.2.2?

I installed CM10.1 on my 10.1 and have never looked back! I realized that all the fancy Sammy features were nice but nothing I really needed. The Multiuser function in 4.2 with CM10.1 makes everything worth it. For S Note replacement I'm using Simplest Note which is fantastic - includes palm rejection too. All this baby lacks is what my phablet Note's AOKP rom has, which is dedecated S Pen gesture controls that allows you to, eg., double tap with S Pen bring up Simplest Note.

It took them six months to give us jellybean, so I guess it will be a similar time after klp releases. The phones - s4, s3, n2 - will get the update first as Samsung sell a lot more phones than tablets.

Yeah, I received it too last night (April 11). It was very small (9.8MB or thereabouts), so I don't think it was concerning new features but some bug they may had found and wanted to rectify in this small OTA.

There is an app in the play store, and probably elsewhere, called GMD sPen control for $5.56, also another for gesture control for people without spen
You know what really sucks is that Samsung isn't implementing multi users in there 4.4.2 flavor bastards !!! That was the shining feature of 4.2.2 for tablets

Note Pro is 12.2 inches with S-pen.
Tab Pros are 8,10.1 and 12.2 inch devices with same UI as Note Pro 12.2 but no S-pen.
And Note 2014 is a 10.1 inch device with S-pen. However has old UI but hopefully an update to kitkat soon will change that.
So really the only difference apart from size is Note series has S-pen and Tab Pro series doesnt.
Hope that helps lol.
Which is better well depends on your needs really all are very high spec devices.

What about RAM, storage, resolution, display type (SAMOLED or LCD?), CPU and GPU?
I love my Note 3 and want something with 3GB of RAM so it can be more future proof. AFAIK, only the 12.2" version of the new models will have 3GB of RAM correct?
Note 10.1 2014 has 3gb of ram

A comparison of the N10.1-14 against the new tablets using Samsung's press release as a base...
[We have it] The Samsung Galaxy NotePRO and TabPRO present the world’s first 12.2-inch (or 8.4-inch/10.1-inch) WQXGA Widescreen (16:10) display, offering crystal clear resolution (2560x1600)
[We’re getting it; at least in some form] A personalized Magazine UX, specifically optimized for a large screen, allows users to further tailor their Galaxy tablet experience for their own needs. The UX enables them to organize their favorite content in an easy-to-use dashboard with automatic feed or news updates and then quickly access the most frequently used apps for a more comfortable reading experience.
[We have it; “four windows” is probably for the 12” models only] Multi Window enables users to split the screen up into four different windows and an innovative, Virtual Keyboard provides them with enough space to type comfortably, leveraging haptic feedback to produce a more realistic typing experience.
[We have it] The Samsung S Pen included with the Galaxy NotePRO delivers a more responsive, productive and overall efficient tablet experience with access to features such as Action Memo, Scrapbook, Screen Write and S Finder. In addition, Pen Window enables users to simply draw a window of any size on the screen, and instantly access unique in-application features such as YouTube or a calculator.
[Unknown if we’ll get it] Users can easily access and control their home or office PC directly through their Galaxy NotePRO or TabPRO with Remote PC in order to seamlessly edit and save files remotely.
[Unknown if we’ll get it] The Galaxy NotePRO and TabPRO also come pre-loaded with Cisco WebEx Meetings platform, the industry’s leading web conferencing solution that provides users with an easy way to meet with anyone, anywhere. And now for the first time on Android tablets, users can share anything on their screen as well as starting a WebEx meeting from contact list. Samsung e-Meeting provides collaboration capabilities by giving users the ability to share content during a meeting without having to access a central server or network.
[We have the one’s in green; the other's are unknown] For additional value and productivity right out of the box, the Samsung Galaxy NotePRO and TabPRO (12.2) will feature up to approximately $700 worth of the premium pre-paid, long-term subscription offers from best-selling news, social media and cloud storage providers, including: Bitcasa, Bloomberg Businessweek＋, Blurb, Cisco WebEx Meetings, Dropbox, Easilydo Pro for Tablet, Evernote, Hancom Office for Android, LinkedIn, LIVESPORT.TV, NY Times, Oxford Advanced Learner’s A-Z, and Sketchbook Pro (content packages may vary by region).
[The accessories that aren't size dependent should be compatible, the LAN adapter is unknown. The 12” tablets have an additional port on their right side] Designed to extend productivity even further, the following optional accessories are also available for purchase with the Galaxy NotePRO and TabPRO: Various Book Covers, USB LAN HUB, Universal BT Keyboard and S Action Mouse (accessories may vary by product model).
[We don’t have MIMO but the new 8.4” and 10.1” tablets don’t either] Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac MIMO (2.4 & 5 GHz), Wi-Fi Direct, AllShareCast, BT4.0.
And I know, the devs (all two of them ) might be able to port some of the features and functionality we aren't getting over. But some of us can't root because of KNOX so consider the above list for those for whatever reason are stuck with what Samsung provides.
There are no differences between Note 10.1 2014 and Note Pro 12,2 except the screen size, i believe and there is no reason for Samsung not to update the Note 10.1 2014 with the new UI.

There are reasons.
It's been discussed to death in the thread linked below. Bottom line is until we see what the Pro/Notes come with and what the N10.1-14 gets (some form of M-UX is the only thing that's certain because it appeared on the microsite) after they're released no one here can say with certainty the N10.1-14 will be brought up to "Pro" level; even though that's what we all hope/want/wish.

They have every reason not to upgrade. They want to sell people on the new featured which means they want peop, e to buy the new device so the get money from device sales.
I have been a long time consumer of samsung products and ifmyou look at it we wait on averagr,8 to 9 months for OS upgrades wnile mamh other devices and manufacturesnalready have them. Samsung is the best for Android but not good with updates.

They got much more to lose, not to update N2014 with new M.UX and bad publicity is always something companys want to avoid. But we already know that N2014 will get 4.4 with new M.UX. If there is hardware limitations, then its understandable, since there isnt and there are no reason N.2014 wont get new M.UX.
Also, u are wrong about Samsung with updates, they are indeed the best of all OEMs with updates and dont know where u get from they are bad with updates?
Which OEM are better with updates then Samsung?

M-UX is now listed as a feature on the N10.1-14 site. So people buying it have the expectation and an "implied" commitment from Samsung that they'll be getting it. In fact, those that don't follow technology news like we do will probably call Samsung support to ask where it is if they buy a N10.1-14 before the M-UX update's released. If I were to bet I'd say we'll get it either when the Tab|Pro 10.1 goes up for sale/pre-sale or possibly even before. I say before because what incentive does Samsung have to push people toward a cheaper tablet (Tab|Pro 10.1) by letting the N10.1-14's update languish? We may get it after the Tab/Note|Pro 12's go on sale to give them some time on the market with M-UX exclusively both before we get the update and the Tab|Pro 10.1's released. Samsung wants to sell tablets in top-down order of price. So bigger screens and S Pen go to the top of the list because those devices make Samsung more and have higher margins.

Where in the site you saw this, I just went to the site and didn't saw it.
The Tap Pro series only have 2 GB of ram, only the Note 10.1 2014 and Note Pro 12.2 have 3 GB of RAM.
Enviado desde mi SM-N9005 mediante Tapatalk
IMHO I think it would be better if they upgraded the Note 10.2014 to KK 4.4 and whatever else before they release the Note/Tab Pro range as those who have the 2014 Note will either sing the praise or decry the device and it's operation and usage. If it works well then Samsung get free advertising from customers which will knock spots off any reviews out there but if we decry it due to this and that then they will be able to tweak anything that customers find wrong before they go on sale.
To me that's the way to do business but of course Samsung will think differently I bet lol.
Any news on the tom tom drums about a release date yet?????

Official specs from Samsung on the N10.1-14, Note|Pro 12 (Tab|Pro is the same sans S Pen), and Tab|Pro 10.1. I've highlighted in red what's different on the latter from the N10.1-14. The Tab|Pro 10.1 specs says it has Wi-Fi channel bonding while the N10.1-14's doesn't. It might and just never got included in the initially published specs.

That is crazy! Samsung really did take out a full 1 gb of RAM in the new Note 10.1! I think that means if Samsung stops making the 10.1 v2014, then that model should hold its value fairly well, maybe?

As always samsung uses to upgrade devices that is not too popular in 6-7 mounths after the AOSP release.
Lollipop was announced for Note 2, Note 3 and Galaxy S4 by Samsung Finland.
I have hopes we will get Lollipop, at least I'm praying
Sadly I have lost all faith in Samsung and will not purchase another of their products. I realize it's sacrilege around here but I bought myself an Ipad air 2 for Christmas. Being that I'm keeping the note 10.1 (2014) I'll have a good comparison between the two items.

I agree but there is no other android tablet with s pen in that size and prize range.... next best thing is ms surface but that's something else completely.
The thing is, I use the pen for alot of stuff (drawing plans to rearrange our flat for example ) and alot of friends and family are totally intrigued by it. I can't imagine buying a tablet without pen after this... its a must have feature once you're used to it. Sadly there is no real competition...
Nevertheless I'm almost sure there will be a lollipop update for it reasonably soon (2-3 months). Unless samsung releases a note 10.1 2015 in the next 2-3 months then the update could be even later. But remember even the original note 10.1 got updated to KitKat!
It'll probably never happen...
So sick and tired of samsungs crap support. I am also sick of my Note 10.1 2014 just being "good enough" to get tasks done. I only use lecture notes for this tablet to annotate pdfs. With no lollipop in sight, I'm buying a surface pro 3 at the beginning of next semester to replace this tablet and my ultrabook. If i get real desperate for android, I'll use Console OS. Peace out sammy, if you have no interest in supporting your products, neither do I...

I agree but there is no other android tablet with s pen in that size and prize range.... next best thing is ms surface but that's something else completely.
The thing is, I use the pen for alot of stuff (drawing plans to rearrange our flat for example ) and alot of friends and family are totally intrigued by it. I can't imagine buying a tablet without pen after this... its a must have feature once you're used to it. Sadly there is no real competition...
Nevertheless I'm almost sure there will be a lollipop update for it reasonably soon (2-3 months). Unless samsung releases a note 10.1 2015 in the next 2-3 months then the update could be even later. But remember even the original note 10.1 got updated to KitKat!

So sick and tired of samsungs crap support. I am also sick of my Note 10.1 2014 just being "good enough" to get tasks done. I only use lecture notes for this tablet to annotate pdfs. With no lollipop in sight, I'm buying a surface pro 3 at the beginning of next semester to replace this tablet and my ultrabook. If i get real desperate for android, I'll use Console OS. Peace out sammy, if you have no interest in supporting your products, neither do I...

I thought it worth to let you all know that I am using Lollipop on a Samsung Note 2014 10.1(SM-P600) wifi only.
There is a thread on the android original development forum by RaymanFX. Its Cyanogenmod 12 which means its Touchwiz free and KNOX fuse is tripped.
More importantly however its miles ahead of KitKat- touchwiz in terms of responsivenes, snappines and fluidity.
There also is this article http://www.xda-developers.com/android/analysis-of-the-galaxy-note-3-android-5-0-leak/ and if all is well and truly as remarkable with Touchwiz- Lollipop then I would love to see this ported somehow to Samsung Note 2014 10.1(SM-P600) wifi and sister/brother models.
Adding all Apps from Samsung Note Pro 12.2 to such a port would be like phenomenal! I have donated before and would donate again on a project like that.
:good:
This tablet will be updated but it's going to be awhile so relax and enjoy life until then.

If you bought a Samsung tablet and expected much more than 1 update, you're a fool. It's a trade off for superior functionality over the more-update Nexus tablets.

I have a Nexus 7 (the first edition). It received the Lollipop update last year and since then is almost useless due to lags and sluggishness. I also got the most recent update (L 5.02) which they claim it fixes N7 lags, but I did not see any improvement. Everything is slow, browsing is slow, booting takes minutes.
With this experience, I have no rush to update my Samsung tablets to Lollipop
Samsung should think about why their sales are going down... l hope this powerful device will get Lolipop but if not I think Samsung will loose aanother buyeri...
Poslano s tableta (tapatalk)
I guess I'm the only one still happy with my Note 10.1 2k14 edition. I'm running a custom ROM. I use the handwriting and s-pen functions quite a lot and don't imagine that I would be happy without those functions. My tablet still functions fine and is nice and responsive (not as fast as my Note 4, but also not as new). I'm really in no hurry for Lollipop on my device. KitKat runs fast and is stable for me.
It's time for Samsung to wake up. This is a modern world. We pay premiums prices for top-rated Samsung phones and tablets, and expect regular updates. We dont need to beg for the updates. The computing world changes rapidly, and samsung should follow suit. It's becoming clearer that Samsung cannot keep up with Google releasing free updates to free android softwares. It's becoming clearer that Samsung Tizen software will eventually be a useless OS.
Just out of curiosity . . Why is getting lollipop so important that people are willing to sell their tablets in shear outrage?
I've got it on my note 3 and in terms of functionality there is very little difference . . .

Samsung Finland ( or other Samsung's section from Nordic Countries) are know for it's fake news ( e. g. Samsung Galaxy S2 Jelly Bean Update). I advise not to trust them

Beacuse it's fresh, something new. Most people love these kind of things. + it looks awesome
I want it too
I want an s note that doesn't lag all over the place!
Someone should start a thread "I will never again buy Samsung" If they see how many ppl are not happy with support of high-end products and selling pop-crap Galaxy S line, maybe they finally wake up!
Just a rumor:

I hope if there is another Note 8 in 2015, that it gets a bigger audience and more active development.
No Note announcement at the CES 2015.

Yeah its funny because there was a long topic about A smaller note 2014 but it never came out..
Since they released a couple of 8.4 tabs i suppose they will add one with a stylus
I mean it shouldn't be too hard for thrm haha...
10.1 is too big for me.

Well, CES hasn't finished yet (crossed fingers).
Or are you stating that it won't be introduced there? (are you an insider?)

Hi guys I googled tab 2015 and found a website called tablet monkeys / i cant post the url coz of whatever reasons.
then i saw Galaxy Tab A 9.7 and co.
then i clicked on the link and found:
"In addition to the display properties, the other thing that have the potential to drive sales of the Samsung Galaxy Tab A Plus 9.7 is the integrated S Pen stylus. That put’s it into Samsung Galaxy Note league."
but these things are low-end tabs. with low res and specs and stuff... :'(
Why wouldnt hey do a tab s 8.4 with a pen ---> a note 8.4 2015 ... ???? grrr

I would assume it is all about sales figures. If Samsung did not sell enough units then they will not make another 8" Note. Also the driving factor on why there is not a 5.0 upgrade as of yet.
The cost of the Note devices might be the reason for them to try and peddle a Tab S with a pen. Keep the device at the right price point for greater sales.

well they released these 2....:crying::crying:

http://tabletmonkeys.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-a-8-0-with-s-pen-launch-in-taiwan/
So the Tab 8 with S-pen replaces the the Note 8. What are the differences between the two?
Is there any review about new tablet?

TBH, I'm not sure we'll see another Note 10.1 for a while.

huh? such a thing exists?
Isn't the Galaxy Tab Pro the successor?
it would be really cool if samsung makes one new device with an spen. I know there is the note pro and the 2014 ed. But these are older devices... and the tab a with spen is not even a mid range tablet according to its specs
tbh, im not going to buy any samsung "flagships" anymore... they are always abandoned by samsung with new devices... updates comes or not, security holes are fixed or not... i like the idea of having a phone, tablet and pen in the same package, but if only it is done by lg or sony. no change im going to buy another samsung ever.
