Did Samsung build a Surface like device for Android? Samsung NotePro First look

CES, Gadgets David Peter

Have you ever wished to own a Surface like tablet running Android? Well, Samsung got one to CES 2014 and it is not Surface, but it is NotePro. Samsung’s new NotePro tablet is a huge one, featuring 12.2 inch display screen; which is bright, eye popping colors and simply astounding. Yes, I’m sure you will be never willing to take your eyes out of the tablet. As I told, the screen is big enough to take away some comfort while using it with single hand. I don’t think you will be able to carry it around in crowd, as one in ten people will drop it down.

One of our representative got a chance to try out the device along with Logitech’s keyboard case, which is little thicker than Microsoft Surface. The keyboard features Android specific shortcut buttons, which includes home, menu, back and multitasking. When speaking about the speed, Samsung’s MagazineUX disturbs the performance; seems to take lot of processing power.
