Samsung galaxy note n8000 white.
Hi all. samsung galaxy Note 10.1 is a stylish multifunctional Android tablet with a proprietary TouchWiz interface and powerful hardware. Perfect Choice for work and play.
Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, despite his involvement in new series devices that support the active S Pen, is the successor to the very first 10-inch tablet Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. The tablet itself is very unusual. It is also for individuals, and for avid "gamers". Let's first look at General characteristics devices:
▪ 10.1-inch display (1280x800 dots) ▪ Quad-core Samsung Exynos 4412 1.4 GHz (ARM Cortex-A9)

Well now let's start...
Design
The tablet itself is very similar to its younger brother - Galaxy Tab 10.1. They are practically indistinguishable. It feels like Samsung has one designer and ran out of ideas. This we will forgive.
The speaker layout is well implemented in the tablet, which is very convenient when you hold the tablet and you feel the surround sound.
At the top we see:▪ Shutdown and reset button
▪ Volume rocker
▪ Slot for microSD card up to 64 GB
▪ IR port for use as a remote control
▪ 3.5mm headphone jack
▪ SIM card slot
The most important feature in a tablet is a pen. S Pen. The feel and recognition of the pen is excellent. It is very convenient for drawing, lessons. For him there is special programs from Samsung"a- S Note, S Planner, Paper Artist, PS Touch(Premium Suite Pack).
The pen also supports the Air Pen function. The function works in some way - you bring the pen to 3 mm and a round cursor appears.
IR port
Another great idea from Samsung. This time the tablet can be used as remote control(Remote Control). Using the tablet as remote control implemented by the program Peel SMART Remote:
He possesses 2 gigabytes of RAM(Excellent for the market) 16/32/64 gigabytes of internal memory, processor Exynos 4412 with MP-Mali 400 video accelerator (everyone forgets about Tegra 3).
tablet in AnTuTu Benchmark received 15284 "parrots" - on par with the Galaxy S III, and overtaking Google Nexus 7.
The tablet itself pulls any heavy and easy games such as: Subway Surfers, Cut the Rope, Modern Combat 3 & 4, The Amazing Spider - Man, Real Racing 3, NFS Most Wanted, Asphalt 7, N.O.V.A 3. (Alas, the games were present on the tablet, but they were deleted)
Interface
The tablet has a proprietary shell (Updated Nature UX) TouchWiz. It is very convenient, fast (Sometimes there is a freeze) and simple.
Here is TouchWiz itself (Nature UX):
This is what it looks like menu: Total
Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1- a beautiful tablet, leading the tablet market, standing from 22 thousand to 31 thousand rubles, which is pretty good. For this price we get powerful device, with special S Pen while making us happy Premium Suite. If you decide to buy it - your choice is correct.
Android devices offered by the famous manufacturer Samsung are rightfully considered one of the most reliable gadgets. The performance margin of devices released a few years ago allows them to successfully perform their functions today, you just need to keep the software part of the device up to date. Below we will consider how to flash a generally successful and balanced tablet - Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8000.
The hardware characteristics of the GT-N8000 model from Samsung allow the tablet to remain an up-to-date solution for users who are undemanding to performance, and the official software shell as a whole is a pretty good solution, albeit overloaded with additional applications. Except official version systems for the product in question are modified unofficial OS available.
All responsibility for the result of following the instructions from this material lies solely with the user who manipulates the device!
Regardless of the goals for which it is planned to implement the Samsung GT-N8000 firmware, before carrying out operations with the device's memory, it is necessary to carry out some preparatory operations. This will avoid errors during the direct installation of Android, and will also make it possible to save time spent on the procedure.
Drivers
The most cardinal and effective methods of installing Android and restoring the device in question require the use of specialized applications. To be able to pair the tablet and computer, you need drivers, the installer of which can be downloaded from the Samsung Developers website:
![](https://i2.wp.com/lumpics.ru/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-10.1-N8000-raspakovannyiy-arhiv-s-avtoustanovshhikom-drayverov.png)
Getting root rights
In general, to install the OS in Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, obtaining Superuser rights on the device is not required, but root rights allow you to create a full-fledged backup and use a very simple way to install the system on a tablet, as well as fine-tune already installed system. Getting privileges on the device in question is very simple. The Kingo Root tool is used for this.
About working with the application is described in the material on our website, available at the link:
backup
Any procedures that involve interference with the system partitions of an Android device carry the risk of losing information contained in the device, including user data. In addition, in some cases, when installing the OS into a device, formatting memory sections is simply necessary for correct installation and android work in future. Therefore, before installing the system software be sure to save important information, that is, create backup everything that may be needed for further operation of the device.
In addition to other methods of creating a backup, it can be considered appropriate to use applications created by Samsung, including for reinsurance of the user against loss important information. We are talking about a program for pairing the manufacturer's Android devices with a PC - Smart Switch. You can download the solution from the official website of the manufacturer:
![](https://i1.wp.com/lumpics.ru/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-10.1-N8000-ustanovka-Smart-Switch-.png)
Additionally. If you wish to implement fine tuning the process of archiving information, including the path on the PC disk where the backup files will be stored, as well as the types of data to be saved, use the window "Settings" called by clicking on the button "More" in Samsung Smart Switch and selecting the appropriate item from the drop-down menu.
EFS Partition Backup
Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8000 is equipped with a SIM card module, which provides users of the model with the opportunity to use Mobile Internet and even make calls. The section of the device memory that contains the parameters that provide communication, including IMEI, is called "EFS". During experiments with firmware, this memory area can be erased or damaged, which will make it impossible to use mobile communications, so it is highly desirable to create a dump of this partition. It is very easy to do this using a special application available on the Google Play Store - EFS☆IMEI☆Backup.
Superuser privileges must be obtained for the program to work on the device!

Samsung does not allow users of its devices to download firmware from official resource, this is the policy of the manufacturer. At the same time, you can get any official version of the system software for Samsung devices on specialized Samsung firmware catalog sites, the creators of which save packages with the OS and provide access to them to everyone. One example of such a resource is firmware.com, the following is a link to download the GT-N8000 system software packages from there:
When choosing an official Samsung firmware Consider linking the software to the region for which it is intended. The region code is called CSC(Customer Sales Code). For Russia, packages marked "SER".
Firmware
Reinstallation and/or update android versions may be required for various reasons and carried out in various ways. In any state of the device, choosing the firmware and installation method, you should be guided by the ultimate goal, that is, the desired version of Android, under which the device will operate after the manipulations.
Method 1: Official Utilities
The only way to officially get the ability to manipulate the GT-N8000 system software is to use the released Samsung software tools for managing the functions of Android devices of the brand. There are two such solutions - the well-known Kies and a relatively new solution - Smart Switch. There are no fundamental differences in the functions of applications when paired with devices, but the programs support different versions Android. If the tablet is running Android version up to 4.4, use Kies, if KitKat - use Smart Switch.
- Download, install and launch Samsung Keyes.
- Connect device to PC
- After the tablet is detected, the program will automatically check for updates for installed Android and if there is more current version system, Kies will issue a notification. In the request window, click the button "Further".
- In the next window, after reading the requirements and making sure they fit the situation, click "Update".
- The further process is fully automated and does not require user intervention. The update includes several steps:
- Wait for the message from Kies about the completion of the manipulations,
after which the tablet will reboot into the updated Android automatically.
- Reconnect the USB cable and make sure the update was successful.
Kies will inform you that you need to download and install a new solution for controlling your tablet from a PC - SmartSwitch.
smart switch
- Download Samsung Smart Switch from the manufacturer's official website.
- Run the tool.
- Connect your device and computer with a USB cable.
- After determining the model in the application and if there is a system software update on Samsung servers, Smart Switch will issue a notification. Click the button "Update".
- Confirm that you are ready to start the process with the button "Proceed" in the request window that appears.
- Review the requirements that the situation must meet before starting the upgrade process and click the button "All Confirmed" if the system instructions are followed.
- Further operations are performed automatically by the program and include the following steps:
- Upon completion of the manipulations, the Smart Switch will show a confirmation window,
and the tablet will automatically boot into Android.
Additionally. Initialization
In addition to updating the official version of the operating Samsung systems GT-N8000, using SmartSwitch, you can completely reinstall Android on the tablet, delete all data from it and thus return the device to the “out of the box” state in software terms, but with the latest official version of the software on board.
![](https://i2.wp.com/lumpics.ru/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-10.1-N8000-Smart-Switch-zapusk-dlya-pereustanovki-proshivki.png)
Method 2: Mobile Odin
The above official method for updating the Samsung GT-N8000 software does not give the user much opportunity to change the system version. For example, rolling back to an earlier firmware using official software tools, offered by the developer, is impossible, as well as a serious change in system software or overwriting individual sections of the device's memory. Such manipulations are carried out using other specialized tools, the simplest of which in terms of application is the Mobile Odin Android application.
For major transactions Galaxy memory Note 10.1 if Mobile Odin is used, even a PC is not required, but root rights must be obtained on the device. The proposed tool is available in the Play Market.
As an example, we will roll back the version of the official version of the system of the tablet PC in question from 4.4 to Android 4.1.2. You can download the archive from the OS using the link:
- Unpack the package obtained from the link above and copy the file to the device's memory card.
- Install and run Mobile Odin, root the application.
- Download add-ons for the tool that will allow you to install firmware. The corresponding prompt window will appear the first time you run the application, click the button Download
and wait for the modules to finish installing.
- Select an item "Open File..." in the list of options on the main screen of Mobile Odin by scrolling down a bit.
- Specify item "External SD-card" in the storage selection window with the file intended for installation.
- Click the file name N8000XXCMJ2_N8000OXECMK1_N800XXCLL1_HOME.tar.md5 previously copied to the memory card.
- Be sure to check the checkboxes Wipe data and cache and "Wipe Dalvik cache". This will delete all user information from the tablet's memory, but is necessary for a trouble-free rollback of the version.
- Click flash firmware and confirm the request to be ready to start the process of reinstalling the system.
- Mobile Odin will perform further manipulations automatically:
- Perform initial system setup and restore data if necessary.
- After completing the manipulations, the tablet PC is ready for operation under the Android of the selected version.
Method 3: One
The most effective and versatile tool for flashing Samsung Android devices is the Odin program for PC. With its help, you can install any version of the tablet in question. official firmware. Also, this wonderful flasher can become an effective tool for restoring inoperable GT-N8000 software.
Download archive from Odin for Galaxy firmware Note 10.1 you can follow the link:
Those users who will have to use the program for the first time are advised to read the material, which outlines all the main points of using the tool:
Service firmware
The most cardinal method of reinstalling the Samsung GT-N8000 firmware is to use a multi-file (service) firmware with a PIT file (memory repartition) to overwrite partitions. You can download the archive with this solution from the link:
- Remove the Kies and Smart Switch programs if they are installed in the system.
- Unzip the archive with Odin,
as well as a package with multi-file firmware.
The path to directories with Odin and files intended for writing to the device's memory sections must not contain Cyrillic characters!
- Launch Odin and add components to the program by clicking on the buttons
and specifying files in Explorer according to the table:
- With button "PIT" specify the path to the file P4NOTERF_EUR_OPEN_8G.pit
- Put your device into download mode. For this:
- Connect the USB cable previously connected to the PC port to the Galaxy Note 10.1 connector. The device should be defined in the program in the form of a blue-filled field "ID:COM" and the displayed port number.
- Make sure that all the above points are exactly fulfilled and press the button Start. Operations for repartitioning and transferring files to the corresponding sections of the Samsung GT-N8000 memory Odin program will run automatically.
The main thing is not to interrupt the procedure, everything is carried out quite quickly.
- When the overwriting of system partitions is completed, the inscription will appear in the status field "PASS", and in the log field - "All threads completed". The device will restart automatically.
- Disconnect from device USB cable and close Odin. The initial boot after a complete overwrite of the GT-N8000 system partitions takes a long time. After the firmware, you will need to perform the initial system setup.
Single file firmware
Less effective at recovery "bricked" devices, but more secure when used for a normal reinstallation of Android in the Samsung GT-N8000 is a single-file firmware installed via Odin. Downloading a package with such an OS based on Android 4.1 for the device in question is available at the link:
![](https://i0.wp.com/lumpics.ru/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/01Samsung-Galaxy-Note-10.1-N8000-odnofaylovaya-proshivka-Odin-zapushhen.png)
Method 4: Custom OS
The manufacturer Samsung is not too happy with the release of users of its Android devices. updated versions system software. The latest official OS for the model in question is based on the already outdated Android 4.4 KitKat, which does not allow us to call the software part of the Samsung GT-N8000 modern.
It is still possible to increase the version of Android, as well as get a lot of new features on the device in question, but only using modified unofficial versions of the operating system.
For Galaxy Note 10.1, many different custom solutions have been created from well-known teams and ports from enthusiastic users. The installation process of any custom is carried out in the same way and requires two steps.
Step 1Installing TWRP
To be able to install modified firmware in Samsung GT-N8000, you need a special recovery environment. Universal and rightfully considered best solution for the model in question is TeamWin Recovery (TWRP).
You can download the archive with the recovery file needed for installation at the link below, and the installation of the environment itself is done through Odin.
![](https://i1.wp.com/lumpics.ru/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-10.1-N8000-TWRP-Odin-dlya-proshivki-rekaveri-zapushhen..png)
The stylus is the lot of outdated touchscreen smartphones with resistive screens or, in extreme cases, specialized devices for professionals. This was considered until recently. Last year's experiment in the form of a hybrid of a smartphone and a Galaxy Note tablet, unexpectedly for Samsung itself, turned out to be extremely successful. big screen and pen for handwriting- all this turned out to be in demand among users.
Why not bear success? smart phone”(after all, the first Galaxy Note is primarily a mobile device) into the not-so-popular segment of Android tablets? What if it turns out, and people instantly grab a tablet with a complete stylus and a package of software optimized for it? Probably, marketers and Samsung developers, who decided to cross the Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet and Galaxy smartphone note. The result is Galaxy Note 10.1, and what it can offer customers - we will consider in this review.
We got a version of the tablet for testing in a white case, with 16 GB of internal memory, with Wi-Fi and 3G modules. She will be discussed.
Appearance
Externally, the Galaxy Note 10.1 looks like a hybrid of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 sample and years. From the first novelty, for example, got a dedicated insert on the rear panel, where the main camera with a flash is located. The front part borrowed recognizable “ears”-speakers from the Korean tablet of this year. Even in size, all three devices are practically the same - the difference is in fractions of millimeters.
Like the “stylusless” predecessors, the Galaxy Note 10.1 is made of plastic. The cover of the device is plastic, but because of the white color, fingerprints are not noticeable on it, which cannot be said about the display. Around the perimeter of the tablet is a gray frame, the same color is an insert with the main camera.
With the placement of keys and connectors in Samsung, they didn’t get smarter, “according to full program» loading the top (if you hold the tablet in landscape orientation) end. There is a power button, a dual volume rocker, covered ports for microSD and SIM cards, as well as a 3.5 mm audio jack and an infrared port. The latter is useful for Galaxy usage Note 10.1 as universal remote control DU.
On the front panel, just above the screen, there is a light sensor and a 1.9-megapixel camera for video calling. The tablet does not need touch control buttons, since everything you need is already provided in the Android 4.0 interface.
The most interesting lurks on the bottom of the Galaxy Note 10.1. No, this is not a microphone or a data cable connector, but a stylus. The S-Pen is securely tucked away in a magnetic pouch for easy removal.
The tablet pleased with the build quality. Of course, the lid of the Galaxy Note 10.1 is non-removable, so it shouldn’t creak and wobble, but devices of this form factor often suffer from a slight backlash. The Galaxy Note 10.1 does not have this: the model is firmly “knocked down”, the plugs sit tightly in the grooves.
There is nothing special to talk about the ease of use of the device, since in this parameter it does not differ from other models of similar dimensions and weight. Working with Galaxy Note 10.1 is more comfortable holding it with two hands. When using the stylus, the tablet can be placed on the palm of one hand, but then fatigue quickly accumulates - it is better to put the device on the table.
Display and Camera
Samsung equipped the Galaxy Note 10.1 with the exact same screen as the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1. This is a 10.1″ matrix with a resolution of 1280 × 800 pixels, created using PLS (Plane-to-Line Switching) technology. We talked about its features in the review. Suffice it to recall that PLS stands as a less expensive alternative to IPS. Such displays are characterized by natural color reproduction and high viewing angles.
The backlight reserve of the screen is enough to view the image even in bright sunlight, although the picture, of course, noticeably fades and gleams cheerfully on the protective coating. Gorilla glass. The main thing is to turn off automatic tuning backlight intensity. In the Galaxy Note 10.1, as in most modern tablets and even many smartphones, auto-adjustment for some reason dims the brightness too much.
A resolution of 1280×800 pixels for a 10″ screen is not enough these days. At least for a flagship product. Not to say that the picture breaks up into pixels, for which the eye clings, but there is a feeling of discomfort, if you look closely. However, all these are minor quibbles, in general, the screen of the Galaxy Note 10.1 is good - not outstanding, but worthy.
The novelty has become one of the few tablets that received a decent camera for such devices. Pictures taken by a 5-megapixel photomodule look great on the screen of the device and even on a large monitor they look good, at the level of smartphones.
Acceptable detail, normal, natural color reproduction, decent macro. In low light conditions, noise “climbs out”, but this is a problem with most mobile cameras.
The tablet can record video at 720p resolution. You can evaluate the quality of the resulting videos by this example.
Functionality, stylus
Here comes one of the most interesting sections when it comes to the Galaxy Note 10.1. There is no particular need to talk about the tablet interface - almost all of us are in the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, which also runs under Android control 4.0 s proprietary shell from Samsung. In this case, it is appropriate to consider the features associated with the use of the pen.
When you remove the S-Pen, a panel with a list of stylus-adapted apps is displayed on the right side of the display. This does not mean that the pen can only work in these programs: S-Pen, for example, may well replace fingers when operating a tablet. With it, you can also take screenshots of the screen, and then draw whatever you want on the resulting pictures (first of all, this option is suitable for creating notes for interface elements).
Programs adapted for the stylus allow you to fully reveal the functionality of this useful accessory. Perhaps one of the most interesting applications-S note. It has a wide range of capabilities in itself (many templates for different type notes, inserting audio clips and images, working with formulas, etc.), but it is also very convenient for creating handwritten notes with the ability to recognize them and convert them to digital format.
The built-in digitizer perfectly recognizes the position of the pen. There is a slight lag when drawing, but it's easy to get used to. In terms of comfort when writing notes, the Galaxy Note 10.1 will not completely replace a pen and paper, but it is very close to it. And given the variability in the use of built-in applications ...
The famous Crayon Physics toy is simple, but nicely designed and can take a few minutes to spare. Using a pen and improvised geometric shapes, the user needs to draw a ball from point A to point B. It sounds simple, but the gameplay is exciting.
Photoshop Touch is a real discovery photo editor, at least for unprepared users. The capabilities of the program largely repeat the computer version, and at first it’s even hard to believe that the developers managed to optimize it so well for the stylus and touch screen of a non-specialized tablet. The pen here, however, is more useful as an auxiliary element for drawing. When processing photos with the interface, it is better to work with your fingers.
The sidebar also houses S Planner and Polaris Office, but they don't use the S-Pen at all.
The Galaxy Note 10.1 has many "chips" that first appeared in. For example, the Smart Standby feature keeps the screen backlit while you look at it. This is how it should ideally be. But, as in the case of a smartphone, you should not count on this function - either the front camera does not always recognize the face, or there are some other software flaws.
When viewing photos or surfing the web, you can hold two fingers on the screen and tilt the tablet up and down to zoom in on the picture. If you “grab” the application shortcut, you can move it to another desktop by moving not the icon, but the tablet itself. At first glance, not very convenient. On the second, however, too. You can play a couple of times, but it is unlikely that many will use this functionality. As unnecessary, it can be disabled in the settings.
But the ability to run the video player in windowed mode is not only spectacular, but can also be useful. A window with a running movie can be dragged across any screen without interrupting work with another application. Another cool feature is split screen. Since the display of the tablet is large, it can be divided into two independent parts without much damage to convenience, each of which can run its own program.
Unexpectedly for myself, quite recently I happened to be faced with powerful tablet Samsung from the Galaxy Note N8000 series on 64Gb, and to be more precise, I had a chance to encounter a fake of this model.
Ran about a week ago phone call. A friend called me and told me that he was offered to buy new tablet for just $250. At that time he was interested real value samsung tablet Galaxy Note 10.1 N8000 64Gb 3G, to which I answered him with the data received from Yandex Market - the price of a new tablet varies from 7.9 to 9.5 million Belarusian rubles ($800 - $970).
For the sake of interest, I looked at the characteristics of this model.
Characteristics of the tablet Samsung Galaxy Note N8000 64Gb
- 4-core processor at 1400 MHz
- 2 gigabytes of RAM
- 64 gigabytes of built-in memory
- 10.1 inch screen
- High screen resolution - 1280 by 800 pixels
- 2 cameras
- Case with separate keyboard
- Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and other gadgets
According to my friend, this the tablet was bought at the beginning of the month in the city of Moscow, but now the owner has a need for money and therefore he sells it. A friend told me that this tablet even has warranty card and receipt from the store with the Euroet stamp, which basically eliminates the possibility of forgery.
Omitting details, he bought this tablet for $150, and he received such a discount after he said that he should connect it to a computer and check everything. Neither one nor the other had time, so they agreed on this.
A little later, my friend brought this tablet to me for testing, but at that time I had things to do, and I still had to go to training. In the end, I was able to start checking the tablet only late in the evening, and this is where the fun began.
How to check the tablet?
When I came home, I tried to turn on the tablet, but I didn’t manage to do it the first time. It turned out that the battery of the Galaxy Note N8000 tablet was completely discharged.I connected it via USB to my computer, the charging indicator on the screen lit up and then for the first time I was able to start the device.
Cool - everything works, I opened applications, clicked settings, connected the tablet to WiFi, used the Internet and even played some games installed by the previous owner. During such work, the tablet turned off by itself several times, and the battery level constantly jumped in an incomprehensible way - this alerted me a little. Later, I attributed all the problems to a dead battery, turned off the tablet and left it to charge.
When my friend returned for a tablet, he asked me to throw him a couple of films and imagine my surprise when instead of 64 gigabytes my computer recognized only 2.
The tablet settings displayed and inner memory and another 64 gigs, but for some reason not all of them worked.
I decided that N8000 tablet is missing drivers. There was indeed an unrecognized device labeled "Android" in device manager.
I climbed on Samsung official website, chose desired device, downloaded and installed the program on your computer Samsung Kies 3 with drivers and immediately ran into a new riddle. The thing is that the device was not recognized by the program at all, at the moment when my Samsung smartphone Galaxy S 2 was perfectly defined.
I'm sitting at a dead end - I don't understand what this tablet needs, what it lacks. In general, I fiddled with it for about 2-3 more hours before I began to think that it might even turn out to be a banal fake.
I visited the legendary portal about mobile devices w3bsit3-dns.com, looking for useful information, I tried to update the operating system of the tablet, tried to reflash it and eventually even did ( full reset), but never received any results.
The next day I called another friend who also computer technology and tried to find out if he faced a similar problem. It turned out that stacked and sent me in the right direction. He said it was fake.
How to distinguish a real tablet from a fake?
For a while, I searched the Internet for any related information on how to distinguish a real tablet from a fake, in particular, how to identify a fake in the Samsung Galaxy Note N8000.1.
The original tablet the camera is in the center- at a fake it is shifted into a corner.
2.
The real tablet Samsung Galaxy Note N8000 screen resolution 1280x800- the resolution of the fake is much lower. In my case, it was 960 by 600 - in other words, the shortcuts and app icons were just huge.
3.
Counterfeit tablets don't have GPS. Try to turn it on, and everything will immediately fall into place.
4.
Original Samsung smartphones and tablets in bare mode equipped with special applications like Samsung Apps, ChatON, Group Cast, etc. at a time when the functionality of fake versions is significantly curtailed.
5.
IMEI code of course, not an indicator, however, in new and real devices it is always present, and fakes usually have “unknown” instead of it - unknown.
6.
Fake Samsung tablets not recognized in the original Samsung Kies.
A bit of myself and pictures
I’m sure if you dig deeper on the Internet, you can find many more ways with which you can identify a fake, however, in this case, for me, the very fact of the distribution of such tablets has become a kind of discovery.Okay, here my friend bought a tablet directly from his hands on the street, but it turns out that there have been cases when such models were quietly “sold” to customers in fairly reputable stores like Svyaznoy. Where is the world heading?
And yes, by the way, after realizing and accepting the fact that the purchased Samsung Galaxy Note N8000 64Gb tablet turned out to be a fake, I again asked my friend to show the warranty card and receipt from the store.
At first glance, everything is as it should be, the amount matches on all documents, the check attached with a stapler to the warranty card, the seal, as is usually done in stores, is superimposed on the corner - everything is according to the rules. But if you take a closer look, it turns out that for some reason the booklet for the tablet comes from the Samsung Galaxy TAB and not from the Samsung Galaxy Note, and for some reason the same IMEI code is not registered at all.
In fact, this is what the tablet itself looked like.
This is what the main application menu looks like. Pay attention to the huge labels that hardly fit high resolution, which I spoke about earlier.
And these are the settings of a fake tablet. The N8000 model, android version and other indicators are the same, but where are the guarantees that these data are generally adequate?
This is how the back cover of the Samsung Galaxy Note N8000 64Gb tablet looks like.
And by the way, an acquaintance whom I called in order to find out if he came across such a fake, said that most often the inscription on back cover made not with paint, but simply pasted, so this moment can also be used as a test.
Considering that today it was difficult for me to find at least some information about fakes of this nature on the Internet, I hope that few people fell for the bait of scammers and they will not get away with it.
In general, here are the things. Good luck everyone and be careful.
If you were offered to buy a fake or, God forbid, you fell victim to these scammers and scammers, tell your friends about it. Warn and protect your loved ones!
Law enforcement agencies are not interested in solving such problems, and judging by how actively the discussion is going on, it has already gained tremendous momentum.
Let everyone know about this lawlessness - this is quite logical and correct.
