The editors didn't like
Disappointing battery life
Despite capacity
Limited storage space – just 16 GB
Front facing camera is poor quality
The $399 price is a lot for a small tablet
No matter its features. It's not as thin or as light as the iPad Mini
And some people won't appreciate the highly saturated look of the OS. Also
Its face buttons sometimes get in the way and there are occasion
Below average battery life
Slippery
Plastic build
Too expensive
No flash player
Browser zoom and reflow needs work
IR Blaster range poor
Plastic casing still isn't premium for us
Screen resolution is a little dated and could be better

S Pen, multi-tasking and pen software, IR AV remote, fast CPU, great size for note taking and sketching
Expensive, the usual Samsung plastic construction, average display resolution

Better-made than the Note 10.1, Screen is bright, colorful, and has decent (if not class-leading) pixel density, S Pen and multitasking features are genuinely useful additions, Good performance for the size, SD card slot allows for cheap storage expansion
Worse battery life than the competition, Smooth plastic back is harder to hold on to than the Nexus 7 or iPad mini, No NFC or cellular, at least in the US as of this writing, Tablet camera is tablet camera
