Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0: grip the tablet

Samsung has released the Galaxy Note 8.0. 8 inch tablet(PIPO M9) complements the range equipped Galaxy Note S-Pen. It is understandably seen as a competitor of the iPad Mini, but it offers many additional options.
The Galaxy Note has a 8.0 exynos quad core processor at 1.6 GHz, 2GB of RAM and runs Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean. It has an 8-inch TFT screen with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels (189ppi). The image quality is excellent. The rear camera has a resolution of 5MP but regrets the lack of a flash. It has a microUSB port and a microSD slot. Autonomy announced the 4600 mAh battery is 14 hours. The Galaxy Tab 8.0 is available with 16GB or 32GB of storage. The dimensions of the tablet are 210.8 x 135.9 x 7.95 m. It weighs 340g and 345g in WiFi 3G/LTE(Ainol Novo 10 HERO II).
The Galaxy Tab 8.0 is of course equipped with a stylus. Pen S-fits into the shell. The tablet recognizes when you take it out of its housing. It unlocks the various functions related to the S-Pen and offers directly using the various options of S-Note. When starting to use the S-Pen, it actually becomes difficult to separate. It multiplies the possibilities offered by the tablet. The functions offered by Galaxy Note 8.0 are too numerous to detail.
Our preferred options
The majority of options are available S-Pen on the Galaxy Note 2 but here is a description of the ones we preferred. Besides access to various forms of note-taking and various creative applications, the S-Pen offers a precision that does not get much recess with fingers. Select links on a website becomes a pure pleasure. Air View the system even allows you to navigate on the tablet(Ampe A10 Allwinner A31) or on a web page without touching the screen. Simply approach the stylus from the screen to perform different actions like scrolling a page or navigate through a gallery of images.
Air View also allows you to bring up a preview of an image, a video or a description without touching the screen. This, however, works only if the items are stored on the tablet. Another application of Air View but is beginning to be known, the image display in the Time Line of a video.
Pen-S is also equipped with a button. It provides access to fast actions such as open Internet, launch an application, return to the previous application or send an email. To do this, simply press the button and draw shapes on the screen. We can even define your own movements to quickly perform new actions.
Unable to ignore the multi window mode. From the sidebar, you can split the screen into two and use two applications at the same time. For example, you can check your emails and surf the internet. The most spectacular mode with the video. You can start a video and then reduce it to the status of pop up over another application. You can then move or you want on the screen.
A minor complaint because he must be one. The S-Pen is very fine and large hands will have a little hard to hold and press the button at the same time.
Reading ebooks
The playback mode is designed for digital books. Are often criticized for tablets not be very comfortable for reading ebooks. Samsung has developed a function that sets the parameters of the Galaxy Note 8.0 for precisely this improve reading comfort. Contrast, brightness and background color are adjusted to not hurt the eyes. The pages are slightly darkened and stained. Simply select the "play mode" in the settings.
In the end, we were conquered. The Galaxy Tab 8.0 is sleek, thin, light and S-Pen provides opportunities that are not found in the competition. This is a great tablet that makes a little more space than 7-inch Android tablet and easily competes with the iPad Mini. It will now depend on whether you tend to iOS or Android, and if you need a tablet with many creative functions.
The 16GB WiFi version is sold € 399. We do not understand exactly why Samsung did not directly aligned with the price of the iPad Mini. Must still go through a cashback tedious. One can find the Galaxy Note 8.0 on some sites to 380 € and 50 € for Samsung pays a purchase until June 30.
