The 8 megapixel rear camera is a decent performer, but don't expect photos and videos to be as crisp as ones from a DSLR or a point and shoot.

Features Key features of the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 compared to the Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF300

10.1

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean

Back view of Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1
It has solid viewing angles and brighter colors than the Nexus 7 display, but at 1280 x 800, it’s nowhere close to matching the resolution or clarity of the new iPad’s Retina Display or even other similarly-priced Android tablets, which are starting to feature 1080p displays.

You will not be producing large scale on art on this small tablet screen, but for the doodler/artist it's good enough.

Coming back to the Asus, What makes it a really good tablet.... It has a really good screen too, I feel it's more than enough for a display of this size.

It's not a. "bad" display by far, but the Retina Display is simply crisp and beautiful to look at.
Galaxy Note 10.1 by Pen-Fanatic--Penz
The new IPS+ high resolution screen is superb, the faster processor is welcome, the TF700 feels better constructed overall than the TF300, (partly due to being primarily made of metal), and having a built in flash for the rear camera is a nice extra too.

The front camera won't wow you with its quality, but at 1.9 megapixels, it won't distract you either as long as you're not planning to do more than some videoconferencing on it.
Galaxy Note 10.1 by c|net (Mar, 2013)
The front camera has less pixels and isn't as great, but is perfect for video calls and gets the job done.

processor

Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF300
Don't expect a quad core to be amazingly faster than a dual core, but it can handle concurrent tasks with aplomb.
Galaxy Note 10.1 by Bill-Clark (Feb, 2013)
For the price of $400 dollars for this tablet with 32gb of storage, you're getting a light sleek tablet with a quad-core processor and excellent battery life.

The speed for 1.4 Quad Core is more than impressive for now days, I'm glad that I bought it.

The tablet has very good clarity and excellent speed thanks to the Tegra 3 processor.

But Galaxy Note 10.1's sunspider result is simply in another dimension.

Web browsing is quite fast (I use Dolphin browser), and once I updated Adobe Flash, flash within web pages works great.

This tablet has a good solid,quality feel, excellent battery life and I find the stylus very helpful during those times when I keep fat fingering things.

Heavy users that game, watch videos use wfi, bluetooth, GPS and connect external devices (like hard drives) will be able to make it through the daylight hours before they need a charge if it's set to balanced power setting.
