Samsung has made a comparison chart of some of the features the Galaxy Note 10.1 has and the New iPad hasn´t. (see chart below)
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 is essentially an upgraded version of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 with the added benefit of a Wacom digitizer, S-pen stylus and plenty of custom apps.
True:
The Galaxy Note 10.1 can view and work with two apps at the same time, and the new iPad can’t. True, as long as you’re using one of Samsung’s specialized apps that support Android’s instancing API (or another app that does).
The Galaxy Note is designed with precision writing and drawing with natural pen-based input, and the iPad isn’t. Also true, since the combination of an active Wacom-supplied digitizer and a pressure sensitive stylus makes for a degree of control and precision that just isn’t possible with a basic capacitive stylus.
Samsung also notes that the Note can handle precision photo and imaging editing. That’s debatable, since the editing capability is largely contingent upon the app one is using. But based on the previous precision points about the S-Pen, you could certainly make the case. Samsung points out that with the Galaxy Note 10.1 you can take notes in one app while viewing content in another. This is definitely a unique feature, and one that the iPad can’t emulate (out of the box, anyway) though Samsung says you could always carry along a real pen and paper as well.
Also on the checklist is a thinner and lighter frame (yes – the new iPad’s just a hair thicker than the old one, and Samsung’s Galaxy Tabs were already thinner than the iPad 2) an integrated infrared port for controlling a home theater, expandable MicroSD storage and USB host functionality for adding wired mice and keyboards. All true, though certain facts like the new iPad’s screen resolution, processor, camera, etc. aren’t touched on.
