The screen grew up only a bit and it kept the
1080p resolution rather than going to QHD.
The camera does, however, record UHD video -
Samsung's initial information was for 1080p, but
we can now confirm it's really 4K UHD (2160p).
Samsung does maintain the clockspeed
advantage with a rare Snapdragon 800 chipset
and while the fingerprint scanner was no surprise,
the heart rate monitor certainly is.
TouchWiz was a bit of a surprise too. We got
pumped up for a brand new flat version of
Samsung's custom UI, but the reality is closer to
what we saw on the new Galaxy Pro tablets.
