Verdict

The Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 3G (SM-P901) is a productivity-focused tablet featuring a massive 12.2-inch WQXGA TFT LCD display with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. This specific 3G variant is powered by an Exynos 5 Octa processor (quad-core 1.9 GHz Cortex-A15 & quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7), paired with 3GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage, expandable via microSD up to 64GB. Key characteristics include an 8MP rear camera with LED flash, a 2MP front camera, and a substantial 9,500mAh battery housed in a chassis with a faux-leather back. Its main pros are the expansive, high-resolution screen ideal for its 4-way Multi-Window multitasking, the deeply integrated S Pen stylus with 1024 levels of pressure sensitivity, and a robust suite of pre-loaded office software. However, notable cons include its significant weight of approximately 750g which makes it difficult to hold with one hand, a slow charging time for the large battery, and occasional interface lag when pushing the limits of its multi-window features.
