this coverage of CES is brought to you by Toyota live from the Samsung tech lounge in the mirage hotel we got our hands on the smallest of the brand new tab pro line hey Josh regard from Andrew authority what's going on everybody and this is the samsung galaxy tab pro 8.4 today Samsung announced a brand new line of high-end tablets that essentially bolsters the entire line of the already established devices the pro moniker basically means that the super high specifications you may have wanted in your original Galaxy Tab tablets are now a reality in terms of design Samsung's seemingly now ubiquitous textured plastic makes a return as the back takes on that very nice feel and is a great upgrade from the old glossy plastic the 8.4 does take on a thin profile that was originally achieved in the note 10.1 2013 edition and thus not only feels quite light but is actually pretty grey pible in one hand the super clear LCD screen is where much of the improvement lies as the smaller screen by tablet standards takes on the very great 2560 by 1600 resolution that gives it an incredible display experience underneath the surface the tab pro employs the powerful Snapdragon 800 for great performance definitely making pro mean speed two gigabytes of ram and a 4800 milliamp hour battery help power an updated TouchWiz interface that further takes on the my magazine motif that the note 3 originally introduced tabpro devices now come with the magazine UI in which samsung has put in their own uniquely designed widgets essentially specialty pages of homescreens can now be highly customized with different sized widget tiles that make for a refreshingly different user experience it's definitely something that TouchWiz has needed for quite a while it's clear that after quite some time residing in the middle tier market the galaxy tab pro 8.4 looks to take the tab series into the high-end market and this 8.4 inch offering takes on the likes of the LG G pad in the Nexus 7 comparisons on those will come soon so make sure you stay tuned once again this is Joshua ragar from android authority reporting to you live from the Samsung tech lounge here at CES 2014 and once again thank you to Toyota for sponsoring our CES coverage
