Samsung Galaxy NotePro 12-inch tablet now shipping

You can now get your hands on the Samsung Galaxy NotePro, packing no less than twelve inches and eight cores.

The NotePro, recently unveiled alongside the Galaxy TabPro, has been available to pre-order for the past week, with the first 300 people getting a free gamepad worth £90. The new tablet costs £649.

If you place your order before 4pm today you should receive the NotePro tomorrow.  

The NotePro is a 12.2-inch tablet with an S Pen stylus. It comes in black or white, with a 1,600x2,560 screen and octa-core processor packing four 1.9GHz and four 1.3GHz cores.

Apart from the S Pen, it's the same as the TabPro tablet specs-wise, but the TabPro also comes in a range of sizes, from a pocketable 8.4-inches to an iPad-rivalling 10.1 inches and an oversized 12.2 inches.
