Expensive
SPen is still complicated
Slow camera shutter
Size may be a barrier
Not enough S Pen apps
Some annoying TouchWIZ issues
The huge display makes the Galaxy Note 2 unwieldy to carry
And hiccups in the S Pen stylus and apps can slow you down. The pricey Note 2 isn't a suitable tablet replacement across all categories
Abstract: I had very mixed feelings about the original Galaxy Note , Samsung's "phablet" tablet/smartphone tweener, when I tested it last February. It was a bit large for one-handed use, and its apps didn't take advantage of the large screen. In fact, the apps "opt...
Abstract: Taylor takes an in-depth look at the AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II . Save for 4G LTE connectivity, it's packing the same stuff under the hood as the international version - 1.6 GHz quad-core Exynos processor, 5.5-inch Super AMOLED HD display, 8-megapixel ca...

Excellent camera and unique software capabilities because of S Pen and 5.5inch screen
Large size may be too much for many users to overcome
Massive highdefinition screen. Fast quadcore processor. Includes a pressuresensitive stylus and welldesigned notetaking and drawing software. Runs Android 4.1 "Jelly Bean" out of the box. Fast LTE, if you can get it. Good call quality.
Very large. A few minor hiccups in gaming performance. Sprint's 4G LTE coverage map is still very thin
With a fast quad-core processor, a big, gorgeous display, and features galore, the Samsung Galaxy Note II delivers everything a huge-screen smartphone should, but Sprint really needs to build out its LTE network....
Good workmanship, Very big screen, Powerful platform, Viewing angle stable, high-contrast screen, Very long battery runtime, Fairly good camera, Wi-Fi for 2.4 and 5 GHz
Mediocre choice of materials, Averagely bright screen, Slight bluish cast, Limited mobility, No LTE
More than only a half-size Samsung's Galaxy Note IIWe spoke of a compromise solution in the precursor of Samsung's Galaxy Note II. Although the second Note's screen diagonal is bigger, we find it easier to categorize it now. The smaller width and the fact...
Abstract: Samsung is back with the sequel to the original Galaxy Note which landed here in the US earlier this year. Once an exclusive device only to AT&T, it is now on every carrier's roster for its subscribers to enjoy. I already reviewed the original and...
Oh, boy, the verdict. This is a tough one. The Galaxy Note 2 is an incredible smartphone, there is no denying that. What you will all have to decide is whether or not you can deal with the size on a daily basis. I personally, couldn't wait to get back t...
Big, beautiful screen, Considerable processing power, Long battery life, S Pen
Occasional feature overload, Volume button placement, Drops some good Android 4.1 UI features, Capacitive buttons can be hit by accident
The Galaxy Note II is an amazing device, one of the best we've ever handled. That much should be plain by now. We wonder, though, if it might not be even more amazing were Samsung to have dialed back the feature set just a bit and honed what was left to p...
