Samsung Galaxy Note II N7100 - user opinions and reviews

Well, these are outstanding specs.
BUT, would be better with 2GB RAM, rather than just 1.5GB. I guess they ran into some technical barrier of accomplishing this. This even lacked from the Galaxy S3, which remained with the same 1GB in comparison to the S2 model. Now this series fixes the thing. (assuming all details here are true and real)
Camera also begged for improvement over the S2. Hoping it maintains at least the same speed and features of the S3.
Now for the uP: Exynos 5250 is a real leap forward. What makes me suspicious about the accuracy here is that it is defined here as 4 cores. As far as I know, it will be 2 cores, but with performance far exceeding that of the Exynos 4412 with its 4 cores - by all aspects (including speed and bus bandwidth accessing the RAM). I guess they sufficed with 1.3GHz due to the power matters - this chip can handle 2GHz!
Pity it is not designed for it here. Perhaps there is a slim chance they'll leave it for overclocking ? Who knows.
Ohh, yes, nearly forgot to mention how great is a 5.5 inches screen. A screen with such high resolution simply demands that many inches. To whom it may not be comfy enough - there are other models on the market. If one doesn't do any that delicate or pixel sensitive work on the phone/computer, he/she may suffice with a less machine-powered device. Just remember that this is only 0.2 inches larger than the first model of this series. There is no logical reason for size reduction. It enters the pocket very nicely and smoothly!

Thank you readers and have a nice day..

Johnny, 06 Aug 2012Yup my friend.. I use samsung galaxy s2.. And a 4s.. I saw ur previous comment. Battery of ip... morehehe, U r rite my friend but since both are upgrade version, I will buy whatever new. samsung note 2, samsung s4 (since I am already using s3 and give s2 to my sister) but to be honest, the feel of touching s2 is better than s3. apple 4s is smaller but because of the brand name, I am giving out my iphone 4 and now using iphone 4s.. hope the iphone 5 will be much better..

Samsung will be the KING of smartphone even though i dont really like samsung but this is the fact that we all gonna face. Since steve job is no more with apple, I doubt that apple will be much better than Samsung. HTC make good quality handphone but financially cannot compete with Samsung. Well, Nokia is almost out, Motorola and Sony are just getting smaller... What Say You???

saw a post about patents...
majority of the telecomm patents are from nortel... a now defunct canadian telecommunications giant.
as for hardware and devices apple runs in part off of samsung parts.

Who are you kidding. As you all know, Samsung Galaxy S II ate iPhone 4S for breakfast, although the 4S came out 6 months later. Apple had 6 months to make 4S better than S II, and failed miserably, like they always do. What could possibly make things different now? I don't think Apple will EVER put in a microSD card slot or make the battery removable (or at least bigger if it's not removable, at least this once they should follow Motorola and make the battery huge like Motorola RAZR MAXX with 3300mAh battery). I don't see a theory how iPhone 5 is going to be better than Galaxy S III, or even Galaxy S II.

If specs really are this good, Note 2 will be the ULTIMATE PHONE.

Johnny, 06 Aug 2012Mah relative has a samsung galaxy note. And i've used it.. The question is not about samsung g... morenow i knew how you're thinking that's wise, it's same with all people who want a new phone, the iphone 5 is going to be a great phone, i am a samsung lover i don't hate iphones i think iphones are perfect but much overpriced. It's the same with me, if the note 2 design is same as s3 i will never buy it just like i did with the s3.
