Hi. Could not find any thread regarding this tablet. Has anyone purchased it? I noticed that comparing with the note 10.1 (2014),the note has slightly higher specs. Than again the note was a high end model, this one is midrange.

I think this is low range. AnTuTu is 40k only. My Mi5s is 150k AnTuTu. 3x the performance. Time to throw this. Oh wait, this is just released?

No idea. I want the s-pen features.

Being using my note 3 forever for meetings and notes that more space is nice. Highlighting documents with xodo is fun as well

Promo is free gift or price discount? I just saw lazada has free gift promo.

How's the device performance? Is the weight heavy? I was note3 user too. What i dont like is samsung always put 2 speakers at 1 side, quite pointless to me.

Sidesync can works when distance is far?

1. Free gift. 64 gb sd card class I, and 2 year warranty.
2. Performance is ok I guess. I never had a tablet, so a 10" is heavy compared to Note 3. My wife has the note 10.1 (2014). It weighs less. Feels solid. Speakers are on one side. Sound loud and stereo, but on one side. micro USB port and earphone jack on top. Have not charged it since initial charge I bought since Wednesday.
3. Did not try sidesync yet.

BTW, no 1st party or 3rd party cases available for this device yet since it was just launch last week.

Indeed this is quite a nice tablet for daily business use especially the S-Pen

If it come with at least 32GB ROM then will be better

Does anyone know what type of s pen does the tablet use? Mine fell and got lost in the drain. Can't get it back.

I read somewhere that this is the upgraded type of S-pen like what the Note 7 used. Probably replacements need to be ordered from Korea unless Samsung MY has it.

Yeah ok what I meant was the technology of the pen itself. Supposed to have more sensitivity.
