Samsung Galaxy Note shows off its sketching prowess in a slick TV advert

We’re growing rather partial to Samsung’s intriguing tablet-cum-smartphone, the Galaxy Note, and a new TV advert shows off its massive screen and sketching abilities, courtesy of a  capacitive stylus.

Sporting a hefty 5.3-inch Super AMOLED display with 1280 x 800 resolution and 8MP camera, the Note is less than 10mm thick, and packs 1.4 GHz dual-core processor and a full gigabyte of RAM.

The Galaxy Note is set to be heading into the UK on November 17th – there’s no news of a US release yet, however.

Here’s how Samsung describe the Galaxy Note’s note-taking prowess:

The best multi-input experience on the go
The GALAXY Note provides you with the ability to freely capture and create ideas anywhere and everywhere. The S Pen is combined with the full touch screen to create a best-in-class mobile input experience.

It is the most advanced pen input technology featuring an array of functions including pressure sensitivity, preciseness, speed and more.

With the S Pen, you can easily sketch drawings or write notes with increased accuracy and ease. Also, the S Pen functionality is deeply integrated into the GALAXY Note’s native applications to provide a richer interactive experience
