Verizon Wireless has officially started offering the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition, selling the tablet for a hefty $600 starting price on a two-year contract.

Earlier this week some leaks indicated that the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 refresh was headed towards Verizon, and the carrier has now confirmed the news. The tablet is already available on Big Red's website, boasting high end specs and features.

"The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition offers the innovation of its predecessor but with a lighter and more stylish touch," reads the description on Verizon's product page. "Watch videos, read e-books and do more in vivid clarity on a 10.1-inch HD screen that makes media look amazing. Access the web with superfast Verizon 4G LTE and multitask with the intelligent S Pen."

For those of you who are unfamiliar with the device, the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition sports a 10.1-inch HD screen with a high resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. Under the hood, the slate packs a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 quad-core processor clocked at 2.3GHz, paired with Adreno 330 graphics and a hefty 3GB of RAM for a smooth and responsive performance.

The tablet is available in three internal storage configurations  - 16GB, 32GB, or 64GB - with microSD card support for additional memory. Other specs include an 8-megapixel rear camera and a 2-megapixel front shooter for video calls. A large 8,220 mAh battery will keep things up and running.

Being part of the Note family, the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition also comes with the much-touted S Pen intelligent functionality, and runs Android 4.3 Jelly Bean out of the box.

Samsung may have launched newer and more powerful tablets as part of its PRO lineup, but the Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 is nonetheless a powerful tablet.

Verizon Wireless is currently offering the Samsung Galaxy note 10.1 2014 Edition for a hefty $600 starting price with a two-year contract. Those who prefer not being tied to a lengthy agreement, meanwhile, can also get the tablet off-contract, but they will have to shell out $700.
