Samsung has been collaborating with Barnes & Noble to create Nook tablets with the result being the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook range of tablets. The first Galaxy Tab 4 Nook tablet feature Barnes & Noble Nook software for easy access to the publisher's extensive library of books, magazines and publications.

The first 7-inch display version is expected to arrive for the US market in August 2014. As such, we expect the pricing to be about RM999 which is how much the original Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 is priced at here in Malaysia. No news on Malaysia release dates or local pricing but we'll keep you posted as to any new developments.
