Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 8IN Android 4.1 Jellybean Mobile Phone 16GB Bluetooth WiFi
Cons:Basic camera with no flashSome parts of samsung custom interface feel unnecessary/dated
Pros:S.pen is fantastic for drawing/scribbling8" screen is a good size |
I purchased this tablet for a family member who is an artist. The s.Pen integration with pressure sensitivity was a key reason why I bought the tablet for them (Also considered the Microsoft Surface, but the price & limited apps were negatives).The s.Pen works very well, and the family member is very happy with its functionality. The stylus is great for older people who may be more comfortable with a more precise stylus than using their fingers.As regards the screen, I personally like the 8" size over 7" tablets, though that is personal preference and depends on what you plan on using the device for.While samsung adds functionality to the device with the s.Pen and apps that integrate with it, i'm not a big fan of some of their re-skinned interface. With newer versions of android now available, the current interface looks dated, and isn't as simple/sleek as stock android in my opinion.It would also be nice if the camera offered a flash. I suppose at this price-point that cannot be expected, but it would have been nice regardless.
