The Queen adds a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 to the Royal Collection

When you think about Queen Elizabeth II, tablet computers aren't among the things that spring to mind. Yet here she is using one, and surprisingly, it isn't an iPad. Nope, Her Majesty is handling a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 instead.The tablet is meant to become a part of the Queen's Royal Collection, and for the purpose, it has been equipped with what is being referred to as a "digital time capsule". That includes videos, photos, and text documents related to the past 60 years of Queen Elizabeth II's reign. About 150GB of media has been submitted by more than 37,000 participants from 66 countries, but only 60 hand-picked items have been featured. The organizers of the project admitted that they originally planned to use an iPad, but after speaking with both Apple and Samsung, they decided to go with the latter's product.

God save the S Pen

This must b an honor for Samsung, But definitely not for Apple

a stylus does give a better way to write something & as a device for playing back videos, the aspect ratio of Gnote 10.1 does provide better experience than iPad

Someone teach her how to root the device!! :D

Long live the queen.

long live Note 10.1 .............. :P

Long live both! :)

HRH is no i§h€€p; it's official, Apple is for commoners!!

So do you think the landscape nature of the Note 10.1 played a role in the presentation? I think the forward facing speakers were a deciding factor. If you've ever listened to music or watched videos comparing the iPad vs the Note 10.1 you'd understand what I mean. Front facing speakers are amazing.

Well the Queen sure knows what she wants, peek a good product when she sees one,GOD SAVE THE QUEEN.and SAMSUNG too.

Although I've never been a fan of monarchs. I must condone this one smart decision on the part of Her Majesty.

This is a very clever but obvious bit of Photoshop editing.

I guess now we have to refer to this device as.... "Sir Note" 10.1. ;) ... Its been Knighted.
