[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] E90 Commie:
It needs the Exynos 5250 and 2 GB RAM paired with a future Key Lime Pie upgrade in order to be interesting. Even if it would be shipped with ICS, I would say that Key Lime Pie as a future update is necessary, otherwise it will be obsolete quickly when Google releases it.

I view it as follows: The N7000 has Jellybean in progress and ICS is pretty matured, both with the stable CM9 and ROMs based on Samsung stock. The N7100 will be very similar from a software point of view.

In order to be tempting, the N7100 has to offer something that the N7000 "can't do" (everything is relative of course) and that is Key Lime Pie/Android 5.0.

When I bought my N7000, the ROM development was already very well progressed and I will never again do like the Thunderbolt, i.e buy a device immediately before the ROM chefs are up to speed. Sitting with stock ROMs and "basic debloat" versions isn't interesting to me. Jumping on to polished, tweaked and enhanced ROMs are much more interesting.

I highly doubt that the N7100 will get the Exynos 5250 and I guess that it will ship with 4.0.4 with 4.1 upgrade coming - i.e very similar to what we have on the N7000 already.

So I think I will pass this and wait for the Note III.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] awesome-member:
sadly I think the latest leaks are genuine and we just got........ SAMSUNG'D pretty hard.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ajamils:
I really hope that this picture does not reflect the final product because that just looks like an oversized S III and I will just stick with my OG Note. I never really cared for S III design and with such big size, it looks even worse.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] gdourado:
If the camera is from the S3, I am so going to trade my note for an 808 pureview...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Tuffcheez:
Wow, if what I'm looking at is true it's a let down. I'm due an upgrade, and was holding out for the GN2. I'll wait a little longer to see...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] LoVeRice:
As if original galaxy note wasnt look like an oversize galaxy s2, and as always lots of borrowed specs from galaxy s3. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ajamils:
It was an oversize S2 but S2 wasn't as ugly as S3.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] msx999:
Can someone explain why there are two dates being talkes about ie the 15th and the 29th?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ajamils:
15th is the date of "official" Note 10.1 announcement and 29th is when Note 2 is expected to be announced.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aceo07:
It better have a notification LED...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] msx999:
agreed on the notification led.

Personally don't want a curved device ala sgs3.

Would love 1080p but know thats unrealistic.

Hope it's a stonker, recently sold my htc one x to get a note as a stopgap till my contract expires in September.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aalupatti:
People don't realize how much s2 has contributed to the development of our note due to internal similarities.

I am hoping the same with s3.

S3 forum is brimming with so much development and I hope to see that with note 2 as well.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] msedek:
Rgb screen its what does the trick xD... Enough for a jump with no doubt
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] gedster314:
The money from my S3 return is still set side waiting for the GNote2.

I almost had a heart attack today. My MacBook Air went pyscho and jumped off my bed and landed on corner right on top of my GNote. The Air was fine but my Note looked like the glass had broke. Upon further inspection the Air must have just done a glancing blow and ripped my screen protector. I pulled of the protector and thankfully the glass looked brand new. I knew I should have sold my Air last month when someone offered me cash for it.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nnick:
Niw I have a dilemma: get the Note 10.1 and keep the Note 1. Or sell the Note 1 and get the Note 2.....?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chasmodo:
As long as you don't get an iPhone all is well. ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Kangal:
If N2 is an oversized S3, the improvements will be small:

- OTB Jelly Bean (maybe ?)

- 1.6GHz Quad-A9

- 400MHz Mali400

- Larger 8MP quality camera

- RGB 720p

- 5.5in

- No physical buttons

- 2,700mAh (?)

I think those would be enough points for someone to upgrade from the S2 or S3, but not much incentive for someone who has a OG NOTE:

- AOKP/PA 4.0.4

- 1.6GHz Dual-A9 (same performance, slightly higher consumption)

- 400MHz Mali400 (same performance, slightly higher consumption)

- Decent quality 8MP camera

- PenTile 800p (decent quality)

- 5.3in (same as 5.5 size)

- Physical buttons (less distractions, more screen estate)

- 2,500mAh (still a HUGE battery)

I wouldn't upgrade. But I would use the opportunity to get cheap OG Note 1's.

So be smart, don't be a retart
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nnick:
Nothing to worry about.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
Im not gonna get the 2. The OGN isnt even a yr old...

Woohoo just saw some possibly leaked pics of the front frame, and it's looking good. No bar of soap shape in sight!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aalupatti:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SsZzliMm:
Hehe, I will LMFAO if the true specs will be completely different from the rumours when it will be unveiled at August 29 :laugh: I hope this new shape will be the Note 2 :good:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tbong777:
Passed on the S3 to get the Note 2...Will likely keep mine as a back up and to test out Cyanogen ROMS. I need a back up international phone. The wife is happy with her SGS2.

I will likely upgrade for a couple iPhone 5s and sell them in October if I don't lose my UL Data. LTE is not something I need or want. I barely use carrier data as it is (hence why I pay $15 instead of $30 per phone) no messaging either. We use FB, GoChat and Googe+ for that.)

Looking for that Wolfson DAC though......
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Dungeon47:
I was basically about to write this post. If you have a Note 1 and aren't wealthy enough to be irresponsible, don't buy the Note 2, it's just an S3 with a pen and a big screen, and the S3 is a marginal upgrade anyway. I'll be glad to get a Note 1 cheaper for my wife.

Look carefully at this picture, it might be because of the light materials but the top of the phone looks curved to me.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Izy:
That's because its already mentioned the phones going to be curved. Or have a curved LCD for that matter. About time
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
Awwww... I just got my Note... Guess I will sell for Note2
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dsmas:
+1. First there will be a loss of 30-35% on sale. again a possible inreased price of say 30-35% on existing Note 1 price. The increamental size of Note 2 is marginal. The present size of Note 1 is fine. if anybody wants bigger and bigger then Tab should be the choice. The video performance and powerful chip and color improvement should be the criteria for going for another device.( I am not feeling the Grapes are sour)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] JulyDerek:
I doubt it that Samsung will only give us a minor upgrade to the office original Note & expect people to upgrade or get new buyers at a higher price point than the Note 1.

I expect some major spec. upgrades for the Note 2.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Zamboney:
None of the specs mentioned make me wanna upgrade so far. If i didn't already have a Note - the best phone in the world - I'd get a Note 2 ofc, but the differences are to smalla of the rumours. They have to do better to really compete with the iPhone 5.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Kangal:
There's no such thing as "iPhone 5".

Can't wait for the debut of the iPhone 6 later this year : )
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] msedek:
Apple its to busy suing samsung around the world to be able to deliver something new or better xD
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tbong777:
If it has a Wolfson DAC it will be worth upgrading....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Dungeon47:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Roshamboing:
I'm sure it will be a sexy phone, and since I bought the international on my own dime, I will be eligible for an upgrade by the time the Note 2 comes out. Score!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] JulyDerek:
Looks great!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] MamaSaidWhat?:
That mockup above ^ has been confirmed as fake. Some guy made it, as an opinion of what he THINKS the Note 2 COULD look like. Check the first or second page of Android Central (or any other popular Android blog/news site) :)

I'm hoping that Samsung do make the Note 2 its "own" device (not an oversized S3) as they've now sold over 10 million around the world. If I wanted an S3 then I'd buy an S3 :p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aceo07:
I actually wouldn't mind a Note2 that was basically a S3, with s-pen technology. :D

Keep it the same size as the S3 too. Also keep the notification led.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Bingoig11:
Once again, Note 2 will probably be an oversized S3 like the Note is an oversized S2...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N4KA:
Who says that?

I don't hope so, the s3 looks ugly as hell.

Let's hope samsung can once in a while develop a good AND nice phone...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] AviatorBobo:
I wish it was a bit more than what is rumored! :) a bit faster "cpu" that is... Don't get me wrong, I am still getting it... But to me, the rumored phone is just a small upgrade to my original galaxy note...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shaolin95:
I will probably get it anyway if the dev is good after a few months in order to have a newer phone to trade when note 3 comes out but I am not impressed if its only what the leaks are reporting

Sent from the Mighty Note International!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] msedek:
Can not agree with you here... Note 1 was a pilot test and by that time seemed logical to come with a shape and specs very similar to their most wanted, best selling phone.. But looking at the recent note's selling numbers seems like the Note has earned it's own way (10 millions devices sold)

That said... I believe that note 2 has its owns designers/developers and won't share a single thing with s3 wich its a good phone but with a horrendous design

Edit: Samsung knows a lot of people dislikes s3 design.. I don't like it either.. And they won't screw it with note 2

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] brooon:
There's no accounting for taste, right? :) I for myself LOVE the design of the S3, I ever had any phone with such a nice look. chic, sleek, modern.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sharchanas:
Lets hope that Note 2 wont have black color problem. I returned my Note to warranty because of that...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] msedek:
Rgb screens

Fanboy point of view.. I own several samsung devices but I'm able to view what's good and what's not about samsung (devices/policy/etc) most of the sales where from blind people who just want to own the latest thing ever.. As its a expensive device they would never say s3 its UGLY as hell...

It's a really bad copy in design of galaxy nexus with the ugliest back cover ever designed by any human...

Beauty lies in the eye off the beholder... :p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N4KA:
Yeah, but I am quite sure not many would call it a beauty...;)

If the note will just be a big s3 I won't buy it and wait for the new nexus' or maybe the rumoured htc phablet.

Whatever, it will be an interesting 4th quarter.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aalupatti:
I thought the main selling point for the new note would be

- larger screen

- better screen

- larger battery

- faster processor

- more ram.

- better spen support

- more updated os

- of course lighter and thinner

And so on.

In have noticed that even though people always complain about looks pre release, they seem to forgive that part later on

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] brooon:
So they should hire you for their QM team, I think ;) ;)

Hmm,...quite a hard judgement...

Refuted! I won mine for testing purposes...so I´m in no way biased by my now-empty-moneybag --> and still love the design of the S3 (as many, many other users do as well btw). When I saw the photoshoped "S3-Note2-version", I was just like: damn, that would be it!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
You can decide what looks good to YOU.

I neither own, nor will ever own, the S3. I have seen and used it, and I think it looks just fine.

That's MY opinion, and if you want to disagree that's fine.

We can hold opposite opinions and both be correct.

I think the Note is a very generic looking slab, to be honest, and I personally quite like the last mockup.

I had the gs3 for a while I traded it for the tmobile note. IM waiting for the note 2. The s3 on TMobile has 2 gig ram witch makes it fast but the damn thing had too many Bugs. The current note is much slower, not even a gig of ram is very noticeable. As long as the note 2 has quad core, more than one gig of ram, and the screen Is super awesome IM getting one for shire.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
Because we don't want to wait another year for something that we don't necessarily need? (i.e more cpu power)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] msx999:
from the little research I've done, although LTE will be available this year, phones will likely start rolling out at the start of 2013, might be best to wait till then.

If the Note 2 does have it for future proofing it will almost certainly be a massive selling point, although I think it is likely to be implemented into the next nexus phone/HTC flagship/SGS4
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 Specs.

Specifications

•1.4GHz Quad-Core Exynos 4412 Processor

•Mali-400MP GPU

•2 GB RAM

•16/32/64GB ROM (Partitioned as Unified Storage!) with microSDHC slot

•10.1 inch, 1280x800 LCD

•7000mAh Non-Removable Battery

•5MP Rear Camera, 1.9MP Front Camera

•WiFi A/B/G/N (2.4 & 5 GHz)

•Bluetooth 4.0+

•Dimensions: 262 x 180 x 8.9 mm

•Weight: 600g (3G), 597g (WiFi)

•Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) with TouchWiz

•Pressure Sensitive Pen and Wacom Digitizer

•Other Extras: An IR Blaster (a TV Remote), USB 2.0 Host, MHL,

The Good

•Loud, front-facing stereo speakers. These should be standard equipment on all phones and tablets.

•A big, long lasting battery.

The Bad

•The build quality. Terrible even by Samsung's low standards. The back is actually squishy, and you can feel it deform while holding it. It's noisy too, the plastic creaks, groans, and grinds when you pick it up. Regular, strong plastic would still be unacceptable when everyone else uses aluminum, but this... this is insulting for a $500 tablet.

•An ugly two-tone "please don't ever confuse this with an iPad" design. It's not designed to look good, it's only designed to not look like an iPad.

•A 1280x800 resolution display on a flagship device is not ok. Asus does 1920x1080, and Samsung makes a 9.7 inch, 2048x1536 display for Apple. They seriously cheaped out here.

•The pen feels cheap too. It's a hollow plastic tube. It's got a button that doesn't do anything useful, and you can't customize it.

•No NFC on a device that is, by definition, a secondary device. Have a Galaxy S III and a Note 10.1? Well, guess what? You can't tap to share because Samsung cheaped out. 2 months ago, NFC was all the rage at Samsung HQ. Now, all of a sudden, it's not important enough to include in your flagship tablet. What happened?

•The new multitasking features, floating apps and split screen, just aren't any good. Compatibility is limited to a handful of not-very-useful TouchWiz apps, and split screen has terrible lag when switching between the two open apps.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aweskelo:

okay 6 days to go till we know everything.

The trailer does look promising, I wouldn't rule off a major positive/upgrade of this phone... (One can with for 4g compatibility in the UK). What would have been AWESOME is if at the end of that trailer it said something like 'filmed and edited on the new note 2"....

Based on that trailer I would assume that this phone is more geared towards multimedia. I really hope the camera is good. (Hows the camera on the SGS3?)

Yes guys. We have sadly situation. Just one little upgrade (I speak about 2gb of RAM) will solve all perfomance problems. But we will never see it becouse it will drop down future sales. Ideal phone is horror for managers.

They are not alone on the market - so they have to bring better devices if they want to survive...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] deserthi:
This new phone will be better than the SIII in that it will have both quad processors and 2 gigs of ram. With the SIII you get quad core with one gig of ram in the international model and dual core with 2 gigs of ram in the US version

This will insure that while all that ram and processor power may not be usable now...it will in the future so here is a phone that will be able to be used for many years to come. I just sold my GNote and will be in line for this new one unless the new Iphone is just really outrageous!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] zkyevolved:
Why wouldn't we? The latest SGS3 looks NOTHING like the iPhone, therefore it's more than probable that the SGNote2 will follow in the same footsteps.

I think Samsung has just realized that they have their foot more than in the door, so they don't need to copy as much anymore. :)

I know I'll get flamed by a lot, but I actually like the SGS3 design, if the Note2 follows in design, I'd buy it for design. It could look really nice :).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Reynaldinho111:
I also quite like the design, not too keen on the color but it looks good, something a little different. I'll probably end up getting a note 2 whether it follows the design of the s3 or not. For everyone saying they won't get it unless it has the exynos 5, I'm sorry but Samsung won't ever put a dual core processor in any more of their high end phones again, even if the performance is a thousand times better. The average consumer doesn't give a s**t, 4 cores sounds better than 2. Samsung is a business whose objective is to make money and more people will buy a device with a quad core. I honestly hope I'm proven wrong but I just don't see it happening...
