Note offers innovative solutions like the 'multi-window', which splits the portable 20.32 cm screen and allows optimal access to a number of live applications, the release said.

Awesome Note, an integrated application introduced in the tablet for the first time with Galaxy Note 510 is capable of unlimited note-taking uses including memo, diary and must-remember lists, it added.

Besides with Air View, the S Pen needs only to hover over the screen to see previews of videos, emails, photos and appointments on S Planner without opening the file or application in full.

Samsung has also launched an offer with the tablet, in which it assures the owner who sends an SMS to the firm gets 12,000 coins in the virtual wallet.

These coins get activated as soon as one downloads the myServices application and can be redeemed by streaming premium movie, downloading bollywood songs, playing game and come with a validity period of 3 months from the date of purchase.
