Features don't matter if you can't charge it!

I bought this unit in November, by this year I had problems getting it to charge. At first I could wiggle the plug into a place/angle to get it to charge. I even tried the charger from my samsung phone which has the same plug, but a better cable. Frustration.
I UPS'd it in for repair today. Really hurts to send it away after I paid so much for it. They told me turn around was 4 days after they got it, so I'll update my review when I get it back.
I really liked the unit on my Disney trip in December, took really nice photos and movies. I didn't like the new user privacy agreement that I recently got that said they could access all my emails. took my e-mail off the tablet.
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations, poor quality charger/jack
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It appears that there is no MHL - HDMI adapter available for this model.

After much searching and communication with Samsung Chat assistance, I have discovered that there is no MHL-HDMI adapter for this specific Note 10.1/2014 edition model. So I cannot connect to a HDMI projector which I already own. This renders the Note useless for the purpose I bought it which was to use in teaching. If Samsung is going to sell a product all accessories should be available or make the Samsung product compatible with older Samsung accessories or with other available brands.
Cons: no mhl - hdmi adapter
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I went from original Note 10.1 to the new 10.1 2014 as soon as they were released. I have enjoyed using the product that it was a no brainier going to new model. It replaced my Livescribe Pen (which is great on its own). The Note worked great until latest release from Google and it got upgraded from 4.3 to 4.4.2. This where I feel the additional price for note looses its value if you want to use it in business setting. Google took away ability to write to SD card and Samsung release of 4.4.2 didn't address this issue! When you use your note to take notes at meeting like me you have SD card with work folders for various customers where you want to save your notes to. Not anymore, you are forced to save your work to internal storage then manually move it to SD card to view later but no edit!. For this reason I gave the product Average overall. Also with upgrade performance seems to degrade as being less responsive.
I would say if the SD card issue not resolved from Google and Samsung, my next tablet will be Surface.
Cons: loss of functionality with 4.4.2, high price comparison to others
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this tablet for light photo editing, being able to drop photos on here is great. Also you are able to run a portable hard drive(no external power needed).
A huge improvement on my previous Samsung Tab 3. Better performance, razor sharp visibility. Improved functionality. I promoted this model to my colleague and he bought the same model as well. He is happy either.
