New tablet advise
Its time to replace my aging Asus Transformer TF-101.
I've been looking at the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition.
it should do Screen Mirroring with my Samsung TV, what are peoples views on it?
i want a powerful one, and would like 1080p, and waterproof, but the Sony one screen pixel count is pants.

Re: New tablet advise
Ive got a Samsung Galaxy tab, Its not the Note one but mines awesome. I used to have an Ipad and I prefer the Samsung to the ipad. It syncs with my TV and has Googleplay Store.
If I was you i'd go for Samsung. I dont think you will be dissapointed.

Re: New tablet advise
None of my local retailers have the Black or White Note 2014, so I might wait or buy online.

Re: New tablet advise
I've got the Note 10.1 2014, and I've had nothing to complain about since I got it. It'll shortly get the 4.4 KitKat upgrade too.
I went for the black one as I like watching films on it and thought the white border around the screen would be distracting.

Re: New tablet advise
Mrs Swoop has the 10.1 2014 note and it a great bit of kit.
No complaints at all.

Re: New tablet advise
I've seen a 32Gig black & white models of the 2014 edition on Amazon, but the black is £50 more expensive.

Re: New tablet advise
Reading reviews doesn't fill me with hope.
Mobohub looks like it's based in Germany and doesn't come with a UK adapter
Gamecybershop could be uk
Top deals uk looks like it's US and not covered in Europe.
