I've been doing exactly this with my first generation Nexus 7 with 1280x800 screen resolution.

The Galaxy NX should be close with its almost 5" 1280x720 screen and it can also accept MicroSD cards.

So I am hoping I'll eliminate the tablet from the photo workflow altogether.

I don't have the exact screen dimensions, but I'm guesstimating that the camera has only about half the screen real-estate of your tablet.

I just realized that the Galaxy NX screen is almost the same as on my Galaxy Nexus phone (same resolution, 4.8" vs. 4.65" size).

I much prefer using Photo Mate Pro on the tablet than on the phone although it's still very workable on the latter. However, a full screen editing (not just viewing) mode is needed to compensate for the smaller dimensional space on the phone! I'll contact the developer.

Bottom line: Editing on the Galaxy NX back screen will be much more like editing on a (large-screen, premium) phone than on a 7" tablet.

I also wonder whether the Galaxy NX screen is calibrated to some color space, say sRGB?

Either one of those points can make or break editing in-camera for enthusiasts.
