Bit of niche product but one that has my gadget buying tendencies on edge and will be used quite a lot in my household.
Not exactly a common product in the UK and only a handful of retailers seem to stock it.
The ones that do carry it, have it on for £499.99 and that is only for the black version.
I have been looking at the white version and when buying through amazon.de the price finishes up at £443.65.

I have no doubt that you can get many things for the money but that is irrelevant, This is a site for deals (being cheaper than retail) and this is.
I have a tv with a smart box (and many other gadgets) but I can't carry my TV and smart box into any room, outside, on holiday etc....and it covers a lot of bases for use in our household (mainly myself and the kids)
Considering it's a decent spec'd tablet and decent brand with an 18.4" screen i'd say it's not to shabby value wise.

:confused: Surely you can get a good high spec laptop/tablet for that price or less. For this price you could get a cheap 4k tv with an android box or stick.

I can honestly say, unless you use this on a table this will be a pain to use. I had the 12" Note Pro and although it was a beast of a tablet, it's portability was questionable.
Hot for the price though :smiley:

This reminds me of Dom Jolly walking around with that enormous phone.

Looks interesting. Can the stand thingy be removed? What's the battery life like?
EDIT review on Engadget is a bit meh http://www.cnet.com/uk/products/samsung-galaxy-view/
Battery life 8 or 9 hours continuous use, stand cannot be removed so tablet cannot lie flat, poor screen resolution and speakers

there isn't tonnes of information about it but from the YouTube videos, Amazon reviews etc it gets the thumbs up.
At first people were a bit dubious about an non-removable stand but after prolonged use found it became pretty much essential and made it more user friendly.
for the price point you're not getting a top end spec tablet, you're getting a mid range spec'd tablet with a huge screen.
