I am amazed by the screen size and the speed of this phone. At first glance you make think this screen is too big. I assure if you get this phablet you will not be disappointed

This is really a mini-Tablet with a phone in it

This is really a great phone, but it's not perfect. I love the features and the apps that are available for it. Execution of some of the features is where it falls down. I had less problems before I "upgraded" to ice cream sandwich. My biggest concern now is that I am getting an "out of range" message for all the wireless networks it detects, even when it is right next to the router. My laptop is at the other end of the house and registering a signal strength of 80 to 90. This denies me Wi-Fi use with my phone.
The biggest plus is the size of the screen, it makes the viewing so much easier. It has great color and resolution.
The speaker isn't tinny and actually sounds fairly good. The 2 cameras that come with the phone take great pictures. Best pictures are taken without the flash, even in low light situations. The stylus is really nice to have. There are tons of apps for sale and free too. One even emulates "Sari" from the iPhone. There are 7 home screens that you can fill with wallpapers, widgets and icons. But...there is definitely a lack of accessories and the battery cover has been on back-order for months.

When all is said and done, I recommend this phone for all. I would get another, but except for the battery cover, and the first version of "ice cream sandwich", I don't see where the phone would have to be replaced. I still love this phone.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, screen size, touch screen, front and rear cameras
Cons: Too big, battery life, comes without a user manual
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome Tab-phone. Indispensable computer side-kick (PC/MAC).

Is that a tablet or a phone? This is the question most folks ask me when they see my phone for the first time. I call it my Tab-phone aka galaxy note.
Reasons I love this phone: 1. The size: Perfect size for my palm. Bigger screen means I can read better with less strain on my eyes and I can still dial phone numbers with one hand when I chose. 2. The s-pen: I like my screen clean of smudges from finger tips. I actually write out my text messages now. There's a "learning curve" for the phone and user but this beats typing by far (I had to play around with the predictive-text software). 3. The processing power: I think of this phone as "mighty mouse" or "atom ant". This is in comparison to tablets out there. Compared to other cell phones, I think of it as "the great one". No problem running any app so far. Tango and Skype run well on this device, esp over WiFi. Web pages load very quickly, I have even stopped using mobile versions of web pages. Alternate between Chrome, Firefox and built-in web-browser for web-browsing without any issues so far. 4. Folder options: I download large files into different folders on my phone just as I do with my MacBook Pro (yeah, I have a mac computer, which I sometimes have a hard time getting to work with my tab-phone but Kies handles the basic stuff and I find a work around the other stuff I need). The ability to download files into different folders and move them around on this device is great. I no longer carry around a jump drive. I carry my USB cable around for connectivity to other people's computers. 5. Connectivity options: Apps like Kies, Dropbox, WiFi direct, and even android beam make this phone an impressive productivity and multitasking tool.
When tablets started popping up, I resisted getting one because I thought of them as scaled-down laptops, but then manufacturers started adding 3g/4g capabilities, and I almost purchased one. But then I discovered the "super'd up" mobile phone called galaxy note and it's capabilities. I love it.
On the lighter side of things: There's a boomerang function where the phone functions as a self-defense assault weapon. Just throw the phone at your would be attackers and run. The GPS would fly it back to you. Heard it's technology from Captain America's shield and Thor's hammer (shareware version). Just like Captain America, working on your aim is a requirement.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, productivity tool, multi-tasking tool
Cons: over-priced replacement s-pen

No More I Phone for me

I had just bought the I phone 5 and saw this phone displayed. I had seen it before but never paid much attention due to its size. Well the size is one of the best features of the phone. Every since I brought it home the kids and family friends love it. The best part is the kids want this instead of the iphones they have.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
