Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 availability ?

[Hempiz]

The for 199 it seems like a great buy. Still loving my original book case, but will look at Poetics's offering when I'm bored of it... Wonder when the new Pro Notes will be released, hopefully we get ours upgraded to 4.4 when that happens

Seems like same spec as Note 10.1 2014, but with bigger screen and Kitkat. But I reckon that Kitkat upgrade will be rolled out before than the local launch of the 12.2Pro.

The original cases for the Note 2014 are such a rip off. No case should be more than R150-200 in my opinion.

I was over in the UK last week. The only store that I found that stocked it had it for GBP55. That's roughly a ZAR1000

I had enough of faffing around for a case and ordered the black poetic from importitall. Came to R444 including delivery.

Can you post a pic when you get it? Like to see what it looks like on the tablet.

Will do, the site says 10 - 20 working days for delivery.

There's also a youtube video comparing the poetic case and the original book cover case. I'll post the link when i'm home later.

NGR just mailed me saying they added the black case for R385 but the link they sent on the email is to importitall.co.za

The white case on NGR's site is still R199.

Importitall.co.za is a sister company of NGR. Essential the same.

Great service either way.

Reading other 10.1 2014 forms around the web and seems that the 4.4 update should be coming soon. Sammobile even had an updated file which was taken down quickly. So far it seems that the multitouch issue will be fixed in the next update

We are still waiting for the last update that the rest of the world got in November

I'm going to flash the non branded rom to solve that problem. No more waiting on VC for updates then.

Seems like a good case. The samsung cases are still insanely priced. May eventually get one of these.

Lots of countries getting 4.3 updates with vastly higher changelists. Hope SA is soon!

Its not bad, however the external fake leather does seem a little cheapish, kinda like the unbranded chinese covers. And the flap doesn't stick around on the back when opened, so it justs flaps around during use. It's probably worth around R250-R300. Not the R385 (R444 with shipping) that I paid.

Good choice man. I am also awaiting the update. Make sure you get a screen guard. You can also follow the tips i posted to ensure the s-pen doesn't have too much friction on screen

I'm enjoying mine more and more... Just needed to force my self to use it in the beginning as wasn't use to a tablet. The screen is amazing..

Why the need for a screen protector? (unless you don't have a proper cover?)

 

[en4ors]

is it really necessary to have a screen protector ,i have 2 ipads and none of them have any screen protectors also.
Is it more for the smooth writing on the screen a protector is required ?

Where in Durban can i get a good case like poetic case.

Screen protector will keep you safe from those fine scratches on your screen. There are not much cases available for the tablet yet locally and the official case is hopelessly expensive at the moment.
