At CES 2014, smartphone vendor Samsung is stepping up its presence in the tablet space with four devices in a bid to take on Apple.
Samsung Electronics’ four tablet devices include: Galaxy NotePRO (12.2-inch) and TabPRO (12.2, 10.1, 8.4-inch).
Apple recently unveiled Apple iPad Air and iPad mini with retina display with a number of low cost materials.
JK Shin, CEO and president of IT & Mobile Division, Samsung Electronics, said: “This new line offers the best-in-class content consumption and productivity, combining a stunning viewing experience with Samsung’s design legacy.”
All the four devices will be available starting from Q1, 2014. Samsung is yet to announce the price of these new tablets.
Samsung Galaxy NotePRO and TabPRO come with the world’s first 12.2-inch WQXGA Widescreen (16:10) display.
These new devices offer 2560×1600 resolution with more than 4 million pixels.
A personalized Magazine UX, optimized for a large screen, allows users to tailor their Galaxy tablet experience for their own needs. The UX enables them to organize their content in a dashboard with automatic feed or news updates and then quickly access the most frequently used apps for a more comfortable reading experience.
The Samsung Galaxy NotePRO and TabPRO (12.2) come equipped with a variety of productivity tools to help users to manage both their personal and professional lives.
The Samsung S Pen included with the Galaxy NotePRO delivers a more responsive, productive and overall efficient tablet experience with access to features such as Action Memo, Scrapbook, Screen Write and S Finder. In addition, Pen Window enables users to draw a window of any size on the screen, and instantly access unique in-application features such as YouTube or a calculator.
Users can access and control their home or office PC directly through their Galaxy NotePRO or TabPRO with Remote PC in order to seamlessly edit and save files remotely.
The Galaxy NotePRO and TabPRO also come pre-loaded with Cisco WebEx Meetings platform, a web conferencing solution that provides users with an easy way to meet with anyone, anywhere.
For the first time on Android tablets, users can share anything on their screen as well as starting a WebEx meeting from contact list.
Samsung e-Meeting provides collaboration capabilities by giving users the ability to share content during a meeting without having to access a central server or network.
