One million units of the Samsung GALAXY Note II sold in Samsung's backyard (ie S.Korea) in 90 daysSelling more than twice as fast as its predecessor, the Samsung GALAXY Note II has sold 1 million units in Samsung's backyard in South Korea in the first 90 days after launch. Globally, 5 million units were sold near the end of last month and the 5.5 inch phablet is on pace to sell 10 million units in its first 4 to 5 months on the market. That would put the newer model at a sales pace about twice as fast as the original Samsung GALAXY Note which amassed 10 million in sales in its first 10 months on the market.

Now tell me that is not innovation at its best. please do not get me wrong I am not here to feed negativity but only what is true. When apple introduced the 1st iphone that was innovation and consequently you already know there were going to be competition, and a lot of company dived in. Not everyone made it but one have to admit: Samsung is BADASS.
I own a galaxy S3 and a Galaxy note 2, IPHONE is so far behind that I can't even see it on my rearview mirror. By the way I am comparing the iphone 5 with the galaxy S2( it is only fair, because the S3 is too much of a competition) on one screen and typing this review on my other scree on my note 2 thanks to the multi view window feature on it.

Dougie', in all honesty, it would have to be a DRASTIC update. Notwithstanding, 1080p and a 6+ inches, and we all know I likes' my inches, I don't think the Galaxy Note III will be that DRASTICALLY different. Therefore, at present time, I would have to use the following iAnalogy: if the Galaxy Note III is given an Apple'esque bump, like going from the iPhone 4 to the iPhone 4S or like going from the iPhone 4S to iPhone 5 then, I would have to say that I would not upgrade [because then I would feel like some mindless farm animal]. But,
if the upgrade in terms of hardware were substantial, and by substantial I mean, Quad-Core processor clocked at 2.5Ghz or higher; 4GB of RAM; 32GB on board storage [with Micro SD slot for expansion], true 1080p HD display, 16MP main camera with dual led and a 3MP Front Facing camera, then I [might] consider it.Incidentally, with me 'upgrade fees' are irrelevant since, I do not have any upgrades remaining [used it on my DROID RAZR December '11] and, even if I did have an upgrade I would forfeit my Unlimited Data feature to utilize it; it's out-of-pocket all the way [for me]... with much i♥
P.S. Very happy with my Note II, worth every penny of the $699 + tax I paid for it.**********
So where is crapple's "magical and mysterious" innovation?
