iPhone user here. Looking at all the good features I have decided to join the driod band wagon. New ip5 is not appealing. I hate the new connector design which makes alot of 3rd party devices incompatible.

Go note 2!!

thanks, I'll be bloody honest. 3gs has been solid for the past 3 years. Everything just works. I think the joy came when there's cut and paste feature introduced and this incorporates both text and image capturing with no substitute. After that, it has been a rat race on hardwares. ip4? faster, better screen and better camera. 4s? same all story. There has been no significant feature which apple has out done others. I think the folks in cydia has implemented better gesture short cuts that what IOS 5 has to offer. Its just plain copy of other OS without innovation. Nevertheless, my old phone has never down even when you need it most. That I believe the jew is the bulletproof OS.

However, as the years go by, I beginning to see strains. Websites is getting more complex, and with all the addition of features bogging the phone down, its a bit funny to hear people talking in ghz and cores, while I'm still stuck in the age of mhz with a single processor.

Personally, i think samsung has outdone apple. Its no surprise to see the giant is trying to stop them getting the biggest pie. with so many new innovations like rotate screen in accordance to eye position, cut crop image on the fly, internal S-voice, big screens, and many more, I believe this note will certainly lure most users to buy in. I'm not a fan on hardware specs. It's just a difference on waiting but it still can get the job done. But having a nifty and practical feature means you're special and you can do things more effectively. Thats why I'm giving uncle sammy a chance once they roll out note 2.

Probably my biggest gripe on note 2 is on the lack of internal storage? existing 32 gig is still insufficient to squeeze in all my favourite songs. Don't talk about videos. Another major concern is on upgrades. Samsung is never concern on porting new OS on older phones. I can't blame them as their bread and butter is always on selling hardware. Nevertheless, there are still generous open source developers to rely to.

Lol. One guy created an account to create awareness

I thought Note II is the ultimate... until HTC announce X5

Yeah. Hoping it will be the next nexus. Then there will be hassle free os upgrade.

Yeah. IPhone may be selling well on the first 3 days but their map issue, no dock adapter, and scratch body is a serious issue. Feels like the phone is 1/2 baked prototype using consumer as a base test rat. in the past they made minor mistake by overshawdowed with the other good features, but this new iPhone is full of major flaw and bugs. the only good points I think is the design.

When can I get this phone early?

Buaya detected.

Will it work on landscape?

I like the titanium grey. But I'm hoping they will release a black matte or black marble version.
