Samsung Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 Review

Samsung Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 is a breath-taking Android tablet released some years ago, in 2014, coming with a big size 12.2 inches display, a very powerful 2300 MHz Quad-Core CPU, and two cameras, an 8 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 2 MP front facing camera. We will get a better understanding of this portable tablet's specs when we get into more details.

Samsung decided to equip this device using an extremely fast 2.3 GHz Quad-Core processor, bundled in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 MSM8974 chip and a large 3 GB RAM memory. Collaborating with graphic calculations, the Samsung Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 also uses an Adreno 330 graphics processing unit ticking at 450 MHz. The Samsung Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 counts with a large 64 GB internal storage and an SD card slot, allowing the user to install hundreds of applications and even the heaviest games currently available without having to worry about filling the tablet.

It seems like Samsung forgot about weight optimization in this 26.56 ounces tablet. The NotePRO 12.2 is just 11.64" long, but it's able to fit a a 12.2" screen. The NotePRO 12.2 is very slim and practical, with a thickness of just 0.31 inches.

Samsung packed this tablet with a good level 12.2" screen, and a resolution of 1600 x 2560 , giving this tablet a detailed graphical experience. Its screen uses Super Clear LCD capacitive technology, and has multi-touch detection.

This tablet has wi-fi connectivity (and it can be provided to other devices acting as a mobile hotspot), 4G (LTE) high performance connection type and also HSPA+ data connection, which is a lower speed 4G type and 3G fast internet connection, using HSDPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The NotePRO 12.2 uses a SIM card to connect to GSM networks.

This device is equipped with two cameras, an 8 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 2 megapixels front facing camera. It is capable of filming Full HD 1920x1080 videos at 30 frames per second. In addition, the camera counts with some useful features: auto-focus, flash and geo tagging.

This tablet also comes with a few interesting features such as Infrared Transmitter, Bluetooth (provides communication with other tablets, computers and accessories) and GPS Localization, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

The NotePRO 12.2 counts with a 9500 mAh massive non-replaceable battery, enough to provide the NotePRO 12.2 with an incredible battery duration. An issue to evaluate is that this tablet's battery is not removable so you can't change it when it begins to last shorter, although with so much capacity you will probably buy a new device before it becomes an issue.

Samsung sells this tablet for $ 249, which is not so cheap for a tablet this level. No matter if you want this tablet to take plenty of photographs, are looking for a tablet for gaming, will use it as a work tablet or are looking for a social tablet device, this tablet is a good choice .
