Next Gen of Note 10.1

[shb]

Can anyone advise how much longer is the lifecycle of note 10.1 or when is note 2 10.1 released ? I don't want to spend $499 for this premium note if only to found out the new one will be released pretty soon

BTW - If you are a Costco member - you can pick up a Note 10.1 for around $430 with coupon.

I honestly don't think there's any way to know for sure. This is the first Note 10.1 so there hasn't been a pattern established yet for us to base predictions on. I know Samsung should be unveiling the S4 in March, and I can't imagine they would announce anything else major alongside the S4. So either they will announce the Note 2 10.1 before that at MWC or they would wait until after. Either way I would imagine a release in the summertime or early fall. There's also always that chance that they weren't satisfied with the sales figures and they might just see how the Note 8'' does and that could possibly takeover the 10.1 market as far as the Note is concerned.

That of course is just my speculation and in no way is based on any research or fact.
