Samsung starting taking pre-orders for its new Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 in the United Kingdom yesterday, and those who placed an order would have paid £649 for it. But quite incredibly, they could have gotten it £100 cheaper from Carphone Warehouse.

The retailer today starting taking pre-orders of its own, and although it won’t be shipping the NotePRO until a full week after they ship directly from Samsung, the device is significantly cheaper at £549. If you don’t mind waiting an extra 7 days, then, you’ll save yourself a small fortune by not buying directly from Samsung.

The NotePRO is Samsung’s latest high-end tablet. Announced at CES in Las Vegas back in January, the device has a giant 12.2-inch display, a 1.9GHz Exynos 5 Octa processor, 3GB of RAM, and 32GB of internal storage. It also comes with Android 4.4 KitKat pre-installed, alongside Samsung’s familiar TouchWiz user interface.
