Samsung today held a meeting with the specialized press in Madrid where it gave the recommended prices for four new professional tablets which he presented at CES in Las Vegas earlier this year. The Galaxy TabPRO and the new NotePRO They arrive with a price that is in line with expectations after some leaks.
In recent weeks, we have talked at length about the new Korean tablets. With them, a very clear difference was made between the old Tabs that became low-cost, the Note that could be considered high-mid-range and the PRO that dominate the high-end.
The TabPRO comes in three different sizes, two of which are more traditional to us, but the largest opens up the 12-inch category, something the NotePRO 12.2 just settled.
As good high-end tablets, they need versions with connectivity through mobile networks and, at this point, it cannot be anything other than 4G speed.
So, we go with the prices:
- Galaxy TabPRO 8.4 ”WiFi 16 GB: 399 euros
- Galaxy TabPRO 8.4 ”4G 16 GB: 499 euros
- Galaxy TabPRO 10.1 ”WiFi 16 GB: 499 euros
- Galaxy TabPRO 10.1 ”4G 16 GB: 599 euros
- Galaxy TabPRO 12.2 ”WiFi 32 GB: 649 euros
- Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 ”WiFi 32 GB: 749 euros
- Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 ”4G 32 GB: 849 euros
- 12,2-inch built-in keyboard sleeve: 129 euros
As you can see there will only be one storage option per model at the moment. On the other hand, the 12,2-inch model of the TabPRO line will not have a WiFi version, but both this model and its sister in the Note range will be able to use that keyboard cover to increase their productivity.
The prices of the larger models put the hairs like spikes. It is true that its endowment is very high and that its competitors in Apple have quite close prices.
However, it should be noted that in both the 8-inch and 10-inch models, Samsung's are more expensive than their Apple counterparts. The iPad mini with Retina display has a starting price of 389 euros and the iPad Air of 479 euros.
The comparison is not trivial and Koreans should understand that they are offering more value for money. With this price line they look the main dominator in the eye without complexes.
The following people will be on sale from today and soon the offers of the operators will arrive so that they leave a little cheaper.
