Purchased this as a replacement for my droid max based on the hype and the larger screen. Very disappointed by it's performance. VERY glitchy. Cell reception much worse...but it does have a larger screen :-/
Pros: screen size
Cons: Did not meet expectations, reduced connectivity, glitches galore
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This phone is amazing. I've never been so happy with the performance of a phone as I am with this one. It's durable and reliable. The features really make the phone great. I love the S pen!
This is by far the coolest and best phone I've ever owned. I used to be an iPhone user; no more! This phone has ridiculously fast processor, big screen, and handy features such as a very useful stylus. If you are choosing between a note or an iPhone get the note if you want more features and usefulness from your phone. If all you want it's a little more user friendliness go with an iPhone.
I use this device constantly during the day. I always have the Wi-Fi feature on and since I am a college student, I have my school email account set to push emails. I am also frequently using the internet and other programs I have downloaded for school. Even with all of that heavy data usage over the Wi-Fi, the battery life makes it through the whole day. It's not enough to make it through 2 days, although I could probably make it until about noon or so, I charge it every night, even though there is still quite a bit of battery life left.
