Verdict

The Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 WiFi (64GB) is a productivity-focused tablet featuring a large 12.2-inch WQXGA (2560 x 1600) Super Clear LCD display and an integrated S Pen with Wacom technology. Under the hood, the WiFi-only model is powered by a Samsung Exynos 5 Octa processor (1.9 GHz quad-core and 1.3 GHz quad-core), 3GB of RAM, and 64GB of internal storage, which is expandable via a microSDXC slot up to 64GB. Key pros include its expansive screen for enhanced multitasking (capable of running four apps simultaneously), excellent battery life from a 9,500 mAh cell, and a comprehensive suite of pre-loaded office software. However, users have noted that its significant weight (approx. 750g) and large dimensions make it difficult to hold for long periods, and the plastic build quality can feel less premium compared to metal-clad competitors.
