I'm going to go out on a limb and say it doesn't. That would require more parts and Google tries to cut cost down as much as possible. It's not a phone, so they don't deem it that important of a feature.

Really? That's weird, I'd understand haptic but not vibration on a tablet

Baltic uses vibration. Can't do one without the other.

I remember that my old Acer A500 had vibration. But the main purpose for vibrate on phones is for silent notifications, which is impractical for tablets, since you're unlikely to have them stuffed in your pants pocket. On a tablet, the main reason for vibrate would be for gaming, I would guess.

It's an important feature if you're deaf.

They have vibrate on the note 10.1 2014. I don't think it's so useless but I do prefer silent.

That's last years, the new note announced yesterday is the note pro, which also has vibration as does the whole new line of pro tablets which by the way look like game changing tablets.

Not such a game changer, except you'll be lugging around a 12.2 inch behemoth. The specs are essentially the same as the 10.1 2nd ed,, with the addition of a Remote PC feature. I don't see much market for an android tablet of this size. But time will tell.

I was talking about the 8.4" version. Who would want a 12"tablet?
