[@geekanoids]

Great video Mike. Looks like a nice device.

[@bigsmoke6482]

This tablet has been with me from 4 years ago.And now this tablet still works normally

[@aaronfuksa2047]

Hoping to ask please...this tablet has the Google app store?, & functions fine with apps.

[@bigsmoke6482]

@@aaronfuksa2047 yes this tablet has Google app store and the functions are still fine just some apps don't support the Android system anymore

[@bigsmoke6482]

Now 7 years ago

[@SEpstude]

Looks like Touchwiz and Windows 8 Metro had a baby.

[@giovannijonk5692]

Its the normal touchwiz

[@The_Phone_Bin_Diver]

Just found one at a thrift store for only, $8! It works great and it is still useable in 2022

[@digitalmediafan]

What is the weight compared to the 10.1 version ? The 4 apps at a time feature is this only on the 12.2 inch ?

[@rickygreengiant]

finally, no review and unboxing in the same video... personally i feel it takes more than 1 day to get a review out...

[@HarrisCraycraft]

He often films his unboxings/reviews over multiple days, that's why some of his videos he started weeks or months ago.

[@rickygreengiant]

Harris Craycraft not really true... look at products that literally came out the day his videos were uploaded.. theyre unboxings, first impressions and reviews... no way u can get a true review on something that fast...

[@JRESHOW]

Spilt screens is awesome. Looks good!

[@_achalsingh]

I've been waiting for this video since note pro's launch......... nice job man!

[@PERRYS_PROPS]

I've had it for a while now. Very happy with it, but haven't begun to learn about all its features.

[@AirJordan2380920]

For that price it should have been 128 gb or more to be a true "Pro" device.

[@6644pmr]

it has micro sd card support. add as much as you want.

[@MadMed12]

I remember I could multitask with 4 apps back in the day, but now, with current tablets, they limit you to only 3 apps .....

[@MrMGOOD5]

I like the idea of the split keyboard function. Great video

[@Kimmyzxc-do8hu]

Man. Its been 10 years. Good old days, back then i was a kid i wanted this soo much

[@WolfofPride]

I envy anyone who does a lot of these gadget reviews, it must feel like Christmass ever time!

[@Mr2pint]

I like it, can see a practicle function for this with my job - nice unboxing!

[@cynlasos136]

I'm in love with my note pro!

[@DAVIDSDIEGO]

I like the rear of the Pro and the S Pen. I wonder what kind of watch he's wearing; it looks cool! 👍

[@Teejaye1100]

I played with this today at Bestbuy and I must say, I'm impressed!! Enough to the point I'm thinking of buying one. I'm not a fan of touchwiz but i could deal with it for this monster 12.2"

[@donnieharden9200]

You make the best unboxing videos ever!!!!!

[@Kheyoflights]

Thank you ! Always a true real pleasure to watch your videos :D Well explain and more than that : the dream rush on :)))) Thank you ! I stay keep watching your YT page :D

[@isaachlim]

Samsung makes so much devices!!!!

[@SchneiderStudios]

Samsung makes literally every device you can imagine. They make it all. My toilet is made by Samsung.

[@isaachlim]

SchneiderMan lol

[@NizarOnTop]

ye

[@sandwichperson]

Do all apps work with multi window or just the pre-installed ones?

[@Straynart]

The menu button is not replaced totally !!! Every internet testers never notice that the recent apps button IS ALSO the menu button, you just have to hold it. It's like the back button, by holding it, you can also launch the multiwindows. And the home button for Google Voice [holding] or by double tapping it, S Voice.

[@ellaevans46]

I see note Pro 12.2 discounts on amz: _____#amzn.to/1gOJnwZ only $631.59 + free shipping. If you are an android lover, this is absolutely the best tab out there and is due to be a flagship device for Samsung.

[@macky2green]

Still want to have this ending 2017/entering 2018.

[@macky2green]

If Mike sells this, I'd buy it in an instant... 😉

[@carlosgatica3956]

thats so sweet. Planning of buying one

[@MrBeeAndFriends]

I've been waiting for this... :D

[@mattlamartina421]

I'm debating on whether I should get one of these or a laptop of a similar price for my first year of college. I know the samsungs have hancom office for free on there and really that's all I'd be using it for is power points and word documents. Any suggestions on which one I should go with?

[@baseballbeast3413]

What do you do with all of the old things you unboxed in your previous videos?

[@nkmeme707]

In the thumbnail does it come with a stylis pen and are you able to download games on it?

[@ecmanis]

I ordered one today. Can't wait for it to arrive in 3-4 days.

[@micegrowstuffs1224]

Even Tab S7 family and as well up coming Tab S8 family today couldn't open up that many windows(unless using dex mode or pop up windows), impressive for its time wish I had it back then my college life would have been way easier.

[@youssefhatem6896]

Hi mike can you please tell me what tablet do you use?and should i huy this or the ipan mini 3 i want an cellular version? +DETROITBORG

[@go1tigers]

Great video I can't wait to get mine this week

[@losyork]

Great Review! I was going to use this to read magazines. Would Next Issue work on it?

[@derrickb.6366]

Have you done a review on the Tab Pro 12.2 or is it the same as the 10.1 with bigger screen or is it more comparable to Note Pro 12.2 with out the S-Pen functions?

[@mijjmijj457]

i think the deal with the nib-replacement is: the previous styluses (styli?) had frictionless nibs (so no wear), but people (me included) didn't like the unnatural skiddy effect. So the new nibs have some friction to allow the sensation of drag (which also steadies the handwriting/drawing lines to some degree). But that means there's wear on the nib. Hence the eventual need to replace the nib.

[@mahermaher-ld5nz]

Please tell me where can I get the 10.1 inch version because I can't find on amazon

[@selfproclaimednobody4614]

Good review. When I first heard of this tablet , I thought "overkill" but damn , that is a killer device. I want one

[@antoniov1467]

i want one after 9 years

[@dsoukaroun]

Do you think the Galaxy S5 will have the new touchwiz ux?

[@RomanNeedles]

Does it come installed with Microsoft Word and stuff?

[@superarsenal009]

Also, how is the viewing angle and is there a stand?

[@kh1kh22]

Thnx Mike for the vid it looks pretty good , the new software enhancement is really goood for a 12 inch tablet ...

[@blackvvip]

I hope you will do an unboxing review about the 8.4 version. Cause im planning to get it! Thank you!

[@paulinelambert7780]

Does anyone know if this tablet will get Marshmallow upgrade? :-( Does anyone have any luck installing a CyanogenMod 13 in a LTE version (SM-P905)? Does CyanogenMod 13 provide complete S-Pen functionalities? Thanks.

[@EuroRocket]

Im debating between tab pro 12.2 with the new Magazine UI or the note pro 12.2. I dont want to spent a extra $100 just for the s-pen. Can the tab pro 12.2 be able to remove the magazine look and just have apps and widgets?

[@user-xj4rl8uj2t]

OMG! This tablet is really amazing! Good review!

[@NightShadow720]

I have bought myself the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2. Which microSD card brand and how many gigabytes would you recommend for it?

[@ganjacasper]

Great review man! i love your reviews i also love to see how these android an apple fan boys fights on your channel as well :D

[@DetroitBORG]

Thanks! I don't quite understanding why people get so worked up about the two camps, each product offers unique reasons to buy them.

[@welsh2266]

Nice vid. How easy is it to stream movies from the device onto a tv mate?

[@bedoul]

Are you sure about the release of a 10.1 version of the Note Pro ? Can't find the trace of it anywhere ?

[@superarsenal009]

How well does scrolling & pinching work while browsing the internet?

[@A_guan]

Also will there be a 10in version of this not the 2014 edition?

[@Nintendolover1234]

Yay, another video.

[@Saga901]

Did I just see the dual shot icon beside the "switch camera/view" icon which is beside the settings icon on the upper left corner of the camera ux? Dual shot mode wasnt put together with the other camera modes in previous devices, it was also on the upper left (in landscape) or upper right (in portrait) corner.

[@plzdonhack]

Is this good enough for my Mom? Might ask her to get the Qualcomm LTE version. She mainly uses it for KZbin, Facebook, and apps like LINE and WeChat. I choose this because it can multitask 4 APPS at a time, video calling, KZbin, surfing Facebook all at the same time

[@kelycat]

Hi, can you tell me if this tablet is compatible with kinemaster, power director and du recorder? Thanks.

[@theisaacxd]

Nice unboxing and video, Congratulations, maybe i will buy it

[@omarmohammed1647]

Beautiful and Powerful. Nice Work

[@bmo5082]

I bought one of these a month ago. For those of you on the edge, just get it. You won't be disappointed. The battery life is Amazing. I can be on my 12.2 all day long and still have juice. I usually end up charging it every other day. That said, i never use the stylus/smart pen. So I basically paid an extra 150 bucks for something I never use. I recommend just getting the tab pro 12.2 instead of the note pro 12.2.

[@bmo5082]

Haha

[@pumps0333]

***** the surface pro 3 seems like the right tool for school but unfortunately if u were to get it u would b force to buy the i5 or the i7 because the basic i3 is so laggy and appears to struggle alot. The surface 3 i3 is 800 dollars the i5 is 1200 n the i7 is like 1600 dollars...that's ridiculous

[@rubeenarfat9750]

amazing I am not taking this tab now but soon I will because I love it

[@bfuller5577]

Any news on when Samsung will have a software update on all their mobiled for new touchwiz

[@zachmiller9175]

Looks like it would be awesome as a digital replacement for a notebook

[@RicardoWagner]

Very good work . Keep on !

[@nokiahwhite6317]

Does it come bundled with photoshop as the previous note 10.1?

[@dxanawa]

Hi, I ordered this item and was thinking the USB 3.0 port, what is the maximum flash drive storage amount I can use with the tablet? Can I connect a 64 GB flash drive? thanks

[@BennyBoy6593]

Does this have a cascade view feature like the note 10.1 2013?

[@adamcunningham6847]

does the 10.1 come with sketch pad as well?

[@CJ120810]

I gonna buy one for my dad after I had seen this video it's really great

[@andrewgarland7962]

Are you going to do an unboxing of the pro 8.4 Thanks

[@qazsxw5296]

Good video, I love the big display.

[@omarkahtan6052]

Thanks a lot for this review but When will you upload the full review?

[@TuxedMask]

I have a really hard time tring to figure out if i should get this one or the 10.1 2014 edition can some one help

[@UmarSharif]

Excellent unboxing & overview!

[@NirbhaySolanki5665]

you are such a talented man that i send you a huge salute......awesome detroit..... are these all gadgets and devices are your own or you take all those for the rent...

[@franklucciola]

Hi mike great vids as always. Was just wondering what phone you actually use day to day?

[@DetroitBORG]

Thanks! I use an iPhone 5s and then whatever phone I'm reviewing.

[@Albinoni7]

hello and thank you for the great version. I am from Perth Australia and I recently got the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2" screen. I've had this tablet now for bit over 2 days and love it, it is actually replacing my previous Motorola Xoom II tablet whch I've had for over two and a half years. My Galaxy Note Pro is the 4G/WiFi version where it uses a SIM card and also has WiFi as well. Now my question here is, does this tablet have LED Notification like that of say a Galaxy Note 2, Note 3 etc. Thank you.

[@DellOptiplex]

A wonderful and comprehensive unboxing. Thanks alot.

[@DetroitBORG]

My pleasure, thanks for watching!

Where can I get the 10.1 inch version because I can't find it on amazon please respond

[@jh3xgaming]

Does it have Android Marshmallow update?

[@decosafwat]

What is battery the Note pro 12.2 or samsung galaxy note 10.1 inch 2014 edition

[@2102758716]

Does it make calls? (even if its size it's discouraging for that stuff)

[@angelicwarrior4133]

Hi! Could you please do a review on the Samsung 12.5 inch tablet, please?

[@AmirRezalol]

is this like the note 10.1 2014 or BETTER??? please reply

[@shaktishrestha8208]

does flash videos works in Samsung Galaxy tab pro 12.2??

[@HeavyLikesSandwich]

I am asking this because i really don't know, But why don't most tabs have an IPS or LED monitor instead of the LCD? Is it a technological constraint or just practicality? Please let me know.

[@shady965]

Omg I need it so bad right now ♥

[@maximusprime2000]

Hey Mike! I love your videos! Can you please do an Unboxing of the Acer Iconia B1-710... Thx :)

[@Gravage]

Hey, Mike. I'd like to see your take on performance. I have the Note 10.1 2014 and with the Exynos, it lags fairly regularly. I'm curious as to whether Samsung has tuned up the performance at all, since it's almost the same hardware.

[@nitro300]

[@Rubikorigami]

Hey Mike! :) Just wanted to know if you think this is still worth it right now? (Price has dropped a bit, but is the screen still up to par, what about the processor?) I guess you've already sold this tablet but if not, did it get Lollipop? Do you think maybe the Note 10.1 2014 edition is a viable option? I really like the Spen but it feels like Samsung abandoned it so... Yeah, I need your help ;) P.S. I just realized that my questions are wayyyy too vague. Really sorry.

[@Rubikorigami]

+Opie Winston Okay, so that's one problem outta the way. Thanks :)

[@MrJeffw223]

Great video! I want one.

[@MahmoudElgml]

hi, can u tell me which better Galaxy note 10.1 (2014 Edition) or Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 and why

[@TechieXP]

Not to shabby. Good job! I was just in Rochester a week ago. 2727 Product Drive. Am sure you likely know where that is.

[@mghuicosa04]

Hi DetroitBORG i wish to know if this tablet is going to have lollipop? I really appreciate it if you get me out of doubt. By the way excellent video and thanks in advance.

[@TechStuffUnboxings]

Great video, I'll get this by the end of the 2014 lol but be sure to do unboxing of 10.1 and 8.4 too!

[@DetroitBORG]

How about by the end of the week? :)

[@TechStuffUnboxings]

***** perfect thank u :D I watch your videos all the time btw

[@nikolavidic9952]

***** Should i buy the white or the black one? Someone told me that the back on the white one gets dirty and that it isn't so nice to the touch like the black ones back. Thanks

[@ReMiReMiTa]

Hello Mike. I got my note pro a couple of months ago but I recently decided to try screen mirroring with my LG smart TV, but I get an error saying "unable to start mirroring because of a hardware issue" :( I tried it on another Samsung smart TV but the don't see each other although I restarted both the tablet and the television a couple of times :( Could you please help me ... thanks for your time and Happy Holidays :)

[@billyfulbright1457]

Mr. Mike can you do the HP Chromebook 14?
