Went by the local samsung store today to find out when it would be released... and they had a couple of demo models in the store to have a look at. Amazing phone! Slightly narrower than the original Note. Basically it looks like an S3 on steroids. Can't wait til the 15th!! The only shitty thing is that it's $1000 in Russia :( but fuck it, I'll be getting it. Also had a look at the Galaxy Camera - Holy hell... 21x optical zoom, comes with Jelly Bean and 1.4 Ghz Quad-core processor - ON A CAMERA!!! Back side screen is the same as the GS3! |

If'd made this thread saying it would shit on the iphone or some such, there'd have been a million responses. Truth is, it DOES shit on the iphone! People with little girly hands need not apply tho. |

It's already out in Korea... For me it'll be out on the 15th. Can't say about the US tho. Will the US version be the LTE of HSPA+ version? I know the UK is getting HSPA+... LTE here in Russia. |

I have heard lots of good things about Nokia's new Lumia 920 and it has some pretty amazing specs, but after using the Note all screen sizes are just too small!! |

I read that all carriers would get it in the US, but not necessarily at the same time. |

I've had the Galaxy Note since it was released and it is the best phone I've ever had. I am contemplating the Note 2 but I don't feel like it's a must have even though it is significantly improved. A year into it and I'm still very happy with my phone. This is probably the first phone I have kept for more than a year. |

Going from iPhone 1-4 to the note 2. Was going to keep the streak alive and go iPhone 5 but decided the note 2 is the game changer. Bring it!!

Hey guys, serious question here, despite the fact that it may make me sound like a faygot. Are you guys worried about radiation at all? Does a bigger and more powerful phone mean higher levels of radiation?

Dan O'Connell -Sal Penis - Is the note 2 better than galaxy? and the list goes on... the Note 2 is equal or superior on every spec to the GS3. the new Galaxy Camera is equal in specs to the gs3. Imagine your Galaxy S3 with 21x optical zoom and I think something in the vicinity of 18mps (with other specs to actually make use of all those mps!! |

I have had the Note for almost a year. Great phone and I probably wouldn't change just yet except I've dropped it more than a few times and finally after dropping it face down on the road, I cracked the screen. Repair is in excess of $200 so I thought, fuck it, and I'll just get the new Note. |
