Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 edition) refurb $390+tax (FS)

[s44]

Groupon deal for the 16gb models. 32gb is $420, though you can now only get that storage size in black (white sold out). Deal expires Tuesday night.

This is the best Android tablet you can buy. Excellent 2560*1600 screen, full Wacom on-screen digitizer for the included S Pen, multi-window capability, 3gb RAM, and a microSD slot for way more storage. Surprisingly good handwriting recognition if you want to use it, along with the usual Android keyboard/dictation options. On Android 4.3, with 4.4 (and a cool new magazine interface) coming soon.

There's a bigger 12.2" version about to release, but the chipset is the same and the new one is rumored to cost $750.

On again until midnight Tuesday, still $390. 32gb sold out.

Incidentally, the bigger one may be $650 and released on Valentine's.

I am thinking to buy a Note 10.1 (2014). I was going to buy one new for around the $500-550 market value until I saw this deal. I haven't bought a manufacturer refurbished electronics item before. Is this a very good deal? The 110+ dollar savings is appealing.
Thanks!

So, with 2560x1600, can it be used as a monitor? Is the resolution even useful with a 10" screen?

I think it's a good deal. Mine shows no visible signs of use. You may or may not get the free stuff (subscriptions etc) that Samsung bundled with the new ones.

No video input, so no real monitor use. Anything above 1080p may be overkill, but it's nice to see really clear text. Remember that you may end up holding this closer to your face than you would a fixed monitor.

Extended again until next Tuesday evening! 16gb only.
