Note = 1280x800 = 16:10

To make it 16:9 they'd either have to drop the resolution to 1280x720, or increase it to something like 1366x768 or 1600x900.

1920x1080 would be nice, but I doubt it'll happen, it'd be total overkill.

If they're not going quadcore, then the Exynos 5250 would be fine given that they can run at 2Ghz and it's got a beefy T-604 GPU instead of the lowly 400. Power usage should be much improved as it's a 35nm processor versus the positively archaic 45nm we have now.

To me and the most important thing about the galaxy note 2 is 2 gigs of ram

I simply can't stand notification lights, I remember old pdas, that used to have those annoying flashing leds, that's one more thing I love about the note, that will be the first thing I turn off.

Having a tough time working out how to improve my experience with the note, perhaps yes extra ram would be nice.

Feeling really duped being a UK owner. (Still annoyed at UK Xoom update farce)

What is worrying is that according to this article http://www.phonesreview.co.uk/2012/...s3-us-carrier-availability-jelly-bean-update/ it's because Samsung are worried about the hardware for jellybean.

Sent email to Samsung ... not expecting reply :

I see you are joining the ranks of Motorola when it comes to letting down UK buyers (refering to the ICS update for UK Xooms). I have just seen that while we have 1GB of RAM you are increasing this to 2GB for just about everyone else - mainly for the forthcoming update to jellybean. Does this mean we wont be getting Jellybean?? Or if we do is 1GB going to be insufficient to get the most out of what we were led to believe was the best phone on the market.

Are we going to be offered an upgrade?

I have only had this phone 2 weeks and already feel like I have been duped.

Regards

[Galaxy S III General] the2rrell:
i very seriously doubt the 2gig ram was because of Jelly the Bean

i mean the Nexus is slated to get it.....it only has 1gig right. so that meanssssss

exactly!!!!
[Galaxy S III General] kms108:
All s3 with 2GB ram will only be dual core, all s3 with 1GB ram will get quad core.

you decide what you want.

Even the Nexus S is getting jelly bean.
[Galaxy S III General] joshnichols189:
The 2GB of RAM is because the S4 processor in those phones is more memory hungry.

It has nothing to do with Jellybean.

At all.
[Galaxy S III General] CreekDirt:
We have known for a while now that the American versions are getting 2Gbs because of their CPU/GPU.

Your phone will run JB just fine.

This will answer why .

[Galaxy S III General] esist:
Like people said, the better processor will balance out the lower RAM.

RAM is for keeping things in a handy place that the device can quickly recall, to save it delay of reopening and closing things constantly. An S3.4x (I'll use this as shorthand for quad core) will reach its memory limit faster than an S3.2x, having to put things in swap instead. But the S3.2x doesn't have as good a processor: it wouldn't be able to cope with reopening/closing applications as well as the S3.4x can.

Also, since processor power consumption is not linear, but exponential, the S3.4x can keep all the processors at half the speed each of the S3.2x's would be, when it does need to reopen apps. This will consume less power than the dual core would performing the same task.

So yeah, a 1GB version can't keep remember as many things as the 2GB one. But the 1GB version will finish tasks faster giving it less to need to remember.

Yeah the Korean version has both. But imagine what that will cost! It has that on top of a TV tuner (one which won't work outside South Korea by the way).
[Galaxy S III General] gellofish:
Ummm ... I was so angry I didn't read the part about it only having a dual core ...lol. I feel better now.

Lesson learned ... read WHOLE article in future!
[Galaxy S III General] locoboi187:
Lol I'm in America and bought the international quad. 2GB will barely ever be used
[Galaxy S III General] Tsukurimashou:
Yeah 2GB is damn useless for now, I always have at least 100mb free whatever I'm doing, Android ram management is impressive. Maybe it will change in the next years but for now it's useless but maybe quadcore will be a must have in the next years and dual core will not be enough who knows, anyway since int version will have the best support (official support and dev support from the community) that's the one for me, GPU and audio chip made helped me to decide. Both are almost equal imo.
[Galaxy S III General] nodstuff:
Seriously guys. That story is bull****. Do you really think that Samsung, the maker of the last two nexus phones and last years best/best selling phone, didn't know about the requirements for jelly bean??

Seriously??

The f*ckin nexus s is getting JB, it has 512mb of ram, 360mb usable.

That story is crap.

Anyone think we will get JB officially.
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
im 100% sure we wont get jb from HTC. that said, our devs may port it over, in time...
[HTC Rezound] richii0207:
That kind of assumption cannot be made considering HTC has said nothing regarding JB, we shouldnt be spreading more rumors than we already have.
[HTC Rezound] Divine_Madcat:
Will "our"...... smh..

Anyway, i wont bet on anything offical; while i am sure there are examples, not many HTC phones get more than one update.. we are still waiting on ICS.

That said, i have more hope that once we have a working RIL (among other components) that a CM JB will come along. Given that this new version shouldn't be the leap that ICS was, i doubt we will need a whole new kernel.. probably just tweaks here and there (possible once we get source)..
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
Spreading rumors? in case you didnt notice, WE STILL DONT HAVE OFFICIAL ICS!! there's a snowball's chance in hell we get official jellybean from htc. and he was asking our OPINIONS! in case you didnt see his exact words were

^^THIS^^

I'm disappointed in how slack they've been with the ICS update. They cant even get that out. When I bought my phone in January they were going to have it out in Q1, well we are two days from Q2 being over and still no update.

---------- Post added at 10:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:17 AM ----------

I think that's overly optimistic. We wont even get Sense 4. Sense 3.6 on 4.0.3 is as far as the Rez goes. Which is highly disappointing because I really like the phone hardware.
[HTC Rezound] drmanhattan:
bro the rezound has been a day late and a dollar short with all updates, which is a shame considering its' relatively top tier hardware. I say spend your time speculating on ways to raise capital so as to acquire a galaxy nexus like the rest of the devs who wanted j.b.

Unfortunately our phone came out right before a major hardware overhaul by HTC which pretty much put it at the bottom of the priority list. They pretty much used the Rez as a tent pole to sustain sales while focusing on the one series IMO. Whatever though I had the decision of getting the gnex and getting the latest and greatest software for the foreseeable future or getting the greatest hardware with the galaxy s3. I chose the latter so there is a chance a few months from now I will be in the same situation software wise that I am in now with my rez.
[HTC Rezound] annath:
Will it be possible for devs to port Sense 4/ 4.1 later? Or is that hindered by that RIL snafu I see people mentioning?
[HTC Rezound] vortmax:
I'm no developer, but I think the RIL issue is a showstopper for sure. I'm just hoping we can get 4.0.4 with Sense 4 and an overclock kernal to boot!
[HTC Rezound] badogg:
There are already a couple of Sense 4 Rom's available.
[HTC Rezound] Divine_Madcat:
Indeed.. just sadly, not all of them are on this board (as i learned, there seems to be a rather big history about it).

As it is though, i would say to give an S4 ROM (Joelz, Bored, or Newts (again, not here)) a try.. all are great roms, and S4 is a big jump over S3.5/3.6
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
It will be a year before the Rezound gets a JB update from HTC, if it ever gets one. The Rezound didn't sell well due to all sorts of marketing fail. Verizon was/is all about the RAZR. We are the redhead bastard step-child. The proof of a stable OTA for over a month now, and Verizon still is sitting on it, after they pushed out the OTA for RAZR, is enough for me. By then who is still going to be on this phone? The next gen phones will be out and mostly almost all of us will have moved on.
[HTC Rezound] jimbo.levy:
Sadly, you're spot on; and what makes matters worse is that our device is MUCH better than all of the RAZRs to date.

The HTC Rezound should've been called the Droid Incredible 3. People would be more familiar with the device I think if that were the case. Also, VZW released the first device with Beats audio to grace the US. They were stupid to not give this phone the hype that it definitely deserves.
[HTC Rezound] maniac2k:
Why would they update the rezound when they can push a new phone model sporting JB? It wouldn't be a good business move.
[HTC Rezound] Cares:
True but they need to provide a minimum level of support otherwise customers will leave HTC for other manufacturers who will support their phones.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
By providing us with ICS (eventually) they have maintained the phone over 2 OS versions, thereby meeting "minimum level of support". If you think for a second that HTC is going to officially give us JB on this phone, well, you're going to be waiting forever...
[HTC Rezound] ijustwantmydock:
I believe HTC will give us jb just not til early next year
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
We aren't even going to get Android 4.0.4. Its been out for what, like 4 or 5 months now and HTC hasn't even updated their ROM to 4.0.4? Why on earth would they bother with JellyBean, which is like 4 days old now, when they can't even seem release an up-to-date version of ICS which has been out for months??
[HTC Rezound] dlochinski:
While I won't hold my breath on a JB official update, I do have faith that our devs will get something working for us. I have been running ICS pretty stable for 4-5 months now, so lets root them on!

[HTC Rezound] Nic2112:
Why would they? If HTC ports 4.1 to the Rezound, they have to spend money on development and what kind of revenue do they get? None.

So why bother? They know we'll just buy the next phone that has it already installed, and when 5.0 comes out, we'll buy another phone.

People who love Android are tinkerers, and tinkerers love to have the latest and greatest hardware so that's why I think most, if not all manufacturers will make minimum effort to port new releases for their phones. They will focus on their next phone so that they can make money off of their work.
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Unless the next phone we buy is Samsung.

Maybe if we get enough people to threaten to switch to samsung...

Meh that won't work.
[HTC Rezound] Tornlogic:
Bite your tongue! Samsung is just as bad as any other OEM out there.

Honestly JB isn't as big of a jump from ICS as it is from GB to ICS. So I believe almost any phone officially getting ICS will be bumped to JB.

So if we get ICS, I believe JB will follow. Notice I didn't say "soon".

http://www.incipio.com/Samsung-Galaxy-S-III-Cases/Samsung-Galaxy-S-III-Cases.asp

Contents:

1. Phone Case

-Silicone rubber

-Acrylic

2. Screen cleaning clothe

3. Dry screen protector

Where purchased: T-Mobile Store.

Price: $29.99 + TAX

Review: I bought this case to hold out for maybe a Speck, Otterbox or Body Glove. But man I was impressed with the design. It feels very sturdy and tight on the phone, yet it is quite slim and easy to take off the case. With the acrylic, it slides in and out of pockets. But with the rubber on the sides it grips firmly in your hand.

Compared to Speck, like I said it's easy to take out. When I had a Speck candyshell on my HTC One X, I felt like I was going to break the One X anytime I needed to remove the case. This is essential as we have removable batteries and SD cards, so accessing the back is required.

Compared to Otterbox, it's thinner. The depth of this case is .49" measured with calipers.

I highly recommend this case. It looks very nice, feels great, thin and slides in and out of pockets. plus it comes with goodies like the screen protector and cleaning clothe. Along with the acrylic background, I plan on creating a Captain America Shield decal and using the blue area as the center of the decal.

Cons: Top and bottom parts of rubber are a little flimsy. But it makes it easy to hit the home button if you have big thumbs.

If anything goes wrong, I will update the OP.

EDIT: With the plastic backing, it's perfect to put a decal on.

Do you have any pictures with the case on the actual phone? The pic you posted shows the camera not centered in the cut out, so I'm not sure if that's a real phone in the case or just a piece of cardboard .
