I have already checked it with *#0*# and went to Sensor section, and I didn't find gyroscope listed there.
I also owned a SGS3 and I found gyroscope sensor listed there.

In any case, the information was very helpful. Right now I already own a class 10 32 gb micro sd card but that is hardly enough for everything but I guess that will have to do for now. Thanks a lot!

I recently got a 64GB micro SD card and loaded it with some of my favorite all time movies and show series. I'm waiting on twice that capacity card.

> In reply to TheNeighbor @ 2013-05-07 14:48 from v0qJ - click to readThanks again for the help - I already own a 1 TB HDD where I store most of my files. I plan to use the tab as a substitute to carrying my laptop all the time (planning to use laptop only in office) - hence I was wondering how easy would it be to access all my tv series/movies that are mainly stored in the HDD. This is the only hold-up for me at moment (else I have been waiting for this tablet to launch since the beginning of this year!!!). Please feel free to suggest any other ways with which I can easliy access my HDD data from the tab without having to connect through my laptop all the time. Thanks again!!

Yes, and it's in white again. It makes more sense in getting a pair of Bluetooth ones as this thing

"2.Battery life compared with tab 7.7 P6800"
I read the Tab 7.7 has up to 12 hours of screen on usage. The Note 8 could only go up to 8 hours of screen on time. I researched on it as I came across one on sale with the same price as the Note 8. However,the 7.7, though having an AMOLED screen that I love, does not have an active Wacom S Pen and has no capacitive keys that work with the S Pen. The power of the Note 8's quad-core processor and 2GB of RAM make it such a more productive device. I personally need it for sketching and image editing with Adobe Photoshop Touch.

"3.Screen brightness and view angle and colors
compared with tab 7.7 P6800"
The Note 8's TFT screen clarity and viewing angles are surprisingly excellent. I haven't come across any review that talks bad about it.

I haven't been using this(N5100) as a smartphone, and I use it as an extension of my Note II. The 64GB micro SD card compatibility just transforms this into a powerful multi-media device. I rooted this and can now connect to my portable hard disk.

Hi guys,
I want to ask guys who have the 3G Version (N5100) to write here about these things:

1.Is there any hands-free in the box?
2.Battery life compared with tab 7.7 P6800
3.Screen brightness and view angle and colors
compared with tab 7.7 P6800

And to GSM Arena: A review of the 3G version is a must guys…

Thanks in advance
