Quick info: I need multi window function and the s pen. Mainly for reading, writing and translating Japanese. Movies would be secondary. Games..... maaaaybe....

Here are the contestants:

Galaxy note pro 12.2

• Quad-core 2.3 GHz

• 32/64 GB, 3 GB RAM

• Li-Ion 9500 mAh

• Expensive, overkill maybe?

Galaxy Tab A plus

• 1.2 GHz Quad-Core

• 1.5GB RAM, 16GB

• 6000mAh Li-Ion

• low end but mid range price. WTF Samsung?!

Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition

• 1.9ghz octacore WIFI or 2.3 GHz quad LTE

• 8,220 mAh Li-Ion

• 3gb Ram

• just right in price/specs but may be left behind in software updates.

  I'll post what I get later but I'd like to hear what you guys think.

UPDATE: I chickened out! Shit, I must've looked 'pants-on-head' retarded at the store with my going back and forth, back and forth between the Note 10.1 and tab A then end up not buying anything... Will try again tomorrow after I grow a pair.

UPDATE again: Got the Note 10.1 2014 edition. Burned a hole in my miscellaneous budget for this month.
