Samsung Galaxy Note 2 N7100

You guys have gone blind. These smartphones are not at all useful .
What will you do after you buy this phone ? You're gonna play for a week with its awesome features,try some games etc etc.

And soon samsung releases a Galaxy S4 which will be even more awesome than this phone.
And soon,apple,nokia and they keep coming and you will feel this phone will suck. And these processors will stop working in a few months. They even lag.

So,go for a phone which is around 10-15k which never change. You will be satisfied .

36K for a mobile ? Are you kidding me ? Seriously you can buy a Bike or a car in EMI.

You can buy a HD tv , AC .
And more useful,the money you put in here will be enough for your college fee for an year.

And if you have more money and you dont know what to do,donate them somewhere else. But dont buy these phones .

hey guys,i got my beauty 2 days back & believe me i am totally in love with this gorgeous. I was tracking this gadget from the day Samsung announced it in IFA Berlin and watched almost all the reviews, hands-on and unboxing videos on Youtube till date. I am not gonna discuss bout the specs and features but would like to talk on the experience with this phone. I am a tech crazy and would put show off on a second place over the actual things i am going to get after investing hard earned money into the technology. If i am throwing more than 35K, i would try to get maximum out of it and believe many of us want the same as well.
First of all please do not compare this device with iPhone 5 as its incomparable. Samsung is on a different path with the performance & features they have included in the phone rather than creating a rival for each and every feature present in iPhone. If you are an existing iPhone user, u'll find a totally different & amazing environment with the openness the Jelly Bean offers to you. The sharpness in the display is tooooo good. Despite of having less ppi you would be able to experience a crisp & stunning display as they have used RGB matrix instead of Pentile in the Note I.
The presence of mind Samsung has shown while creating this thing is mind blowing. Each and everything is been done considering how the user is going to face the problem. Despite of big screen its still manageable with one hand. The one handed operations like typing text, using number pad, calculator is very convenient. Other than this i am very much impressed with the voice command all over whether its talking with Google, unlock the screen, playing pause volume up down the song, off the alarm, using the camera...everything will reach above your expectations. Google maps are up to date and incredible.
So all and all its a giant surprise package which will reveal when you yourself will use it. Believe me if you have not used this phone, you don't know what actually the technology is. If you are serious about the thing you are looking for & want the worth of the money you are paying....go get it.
Let me do a favor by telling this to you that if you can not resist and want to have one very soon before Diwali, do not purchase it from a big showroom or any big mobile store. Instead go to any small retail shop and ask one from them. The reason is some of the retail sellers have direct contact with the distributors and they sell it on very less profit margins. I got it from one of them and encountered the difference of flat 2000K which is a huge amount for me. This money you can invest is buying some good accessories. Hope this review was helpful for you. Thanks and kip smiling :-)

First to mention, before buying this Beast: Galaxy Note 2, i had read a lot of reviews here in Flipkart on this mobile, but Max of them were on the common features that almost everyone knows from like the:

-5.5 screen
-Quad-Core
-2GB RAM
-Super AMOLED capacitive Touchscreen
-16GB Internal
-64GB External Expandable
-Camera: 8MP(Main), 1.9(Front)
-NFC
-OS: Android Jelly Bean
-GPU: Mail-400MP
-Stylus Pen

Yes, i agree, these are the Excellent Features which other phones cannot compete easily,
BUT, there are loads of other interesting stuffs that any TECH SAVY person will like a lot!!!

After buying this Galaxy Note 2 last week, i had been trying to figure out the extra features that this beast offers in excess to the mentioned above ones.
Some of them are as follows:

-First of all, the most attractive feature that i really liked was the Motion Sensor Capabilities that this beast is offering.
Let me note down some of them as tested by me:

1) To unlock the device with motion, tap and hold a point on the screen, and then tilt the device forwards.
2) When you pick up the device after it has been idle for some time or when the screen has turned off, it vibrates if you have missed calls or new messages.
3) While viewing a call, a message, or contact details on the phone screen, simply pick up and hold the device to your ear to make a call to that number.
4) Tap and hold an item on the screen, and then move the device to the left or right to move the item to another panel on the Home screen or the Applications screen in that direction.
5) When an image is zoomed in, tap and hold a point on the screen, and then move the device in any direction to browse the image.
6) While you are cheking mails or contacts in a page and you reach the middle or the last of the list, simply Double-tap the device to move to the top of a list of contacts or emails.
7) While the screen is locked, tap and hold the screen, and then rotate the device to landscape orientation to launch the camera.
8) Turn over the device(making it lie down with back-side up) to mute ringtone, pause media playback, or mute the FM radio.
9) Shake the device to search for Bluetooth devices.
10) Shake the device to update the list of emails or information from Yahoo News, Yahoo Finance etc.
11) Sweep your hand sideways across the screen from right to left to capture a screenshot.
12) Cover the screen with a palm to pause media playback. Move it away from the screen to resume.
13) Tap and hold two points on the screen, and then tilt the device back and forth to zoom in or out.
14) When the touch screen is turned off, move your hand across the Proximity/Light sensor to
turn on the screen lightly and view the number of missed calls and new messages, the battery
power level, and more.

The above are the special features that this phone provides in respect to various motions.

- Secondly, like the Galaxy S3, it has the Smart Stay, which enables the phone to keep the screen on as long as you are looking at it.
When you close your eyes or move away from looking into the screen, the Phone screen will automatically turn off.

- Thirdly, with the Quad-core processor and 2GB RAM, Gamers will really love this phone since some VERY HIGH RESOLUTION GAMES are just running with not a single point of lag in this phone.

- Fourthly, You would luv to watch videos in this phone due to itz big screen and the very good quality videos running smoothly.

- Fifthly, Music quality is really very good and descent. Radio works perfect.

- Sixthly, SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) Level is relatively low(The lower the Better) for the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 in comparision to other phones:

Galaxy Note 2: 0.171 W/kg
Galaxy Note: 0.39 W/kg
Galaxy S3: 0.342 W/kg
Galaxy S2: 0.338 W/kg
iPhone 4S: 0.98 W/kg
iPhone 5: 0.951 W/kg
HTC One X: 0.909 W/kg

Apart from the above mentioned features:
- I have not tested with the camera yet since i already have a Digital Camera.
But as read from reviews, the camera is quite good in its capabilities, with 1.9 front camera is just great.

- Also not tested with the full capability of the Stylus Pen, since it has loads of functionalities that has to be checked in details :-)

So simply after examining withlots of such exciting features, it simply stands out tall in the market.

I bought the phone today but not from flipkart. Got it at Rs 2000 less than for what it is being sold here right now. The phone is very big, that is the first impression I got.
First the average things about the phone:
The screen is good, but its like any other flagship phone. Personally i like the screen of my HTC one x a little better. Camera is average for 8 mp,similar to the hox/sgs2. Its made of glossy plastic, i got the metallic grey one. Its a finger print magnet.
The good things:
It is very very fast, faster than the HTC one x by a fair margin. The s-pen has some cool features, some useful some gimmicky, i dont know if i will be using all them but they are cool to showoff to people. The s-pen is a lot better than the one on the note 1. Used both personally. The difference is there. the screen is big and good for watching movies, its not of the pentile variety, but its not the regular rgbg matrix too. The battery is huge and while i have not had the time to test the phone, it should give good battery life.
The bad:
there is nothing bad as such about the phone. its size might be one point here, but people with smaller hands should not consider buying this. Glossy plastic might not get too many fans either.

You must be knowing all the specifications or yu can check in other reviews or google them..as its a review section i would like to review my experience...
i bought it on 13th october's afternoon..at rs.37,200 (so not from flipkart)..!!
See the phone is no doubt fascinating and yu feel good holding it..and the fact is it is really one good phone..its fast ..hd display..colours are better than earlier samsung phones..and almost every feature yu r looking for..its like the mountain top of phones today..there cant be more things which can be bundled into it..
The only drawback which i felt and everyone around me mentioned was its ENORMOUS SIZE!! its really big and it weighs 183 gms..its not for a girls hand ..or men with small hands..
its slim but not comfortable to hold for long..like i was keeping the phone down after around 5 mins..its like yu r holding a ceramic tile ..
thirdly talking about the s pen or the stylus its a good add on..as an eg..if yu r talking to some one and need to note down something so as soon yu take out ur stylus ..a note pad pops up..where yu can put down notes..
Fourthly it uses a micro sim so buying from such websites is a viable option only if yu have a micro sim already or can get it punched around ur place..
Finally..talking about the basis of my review .. i previously owned an xperia arc..of my three close friends one owns an htc one x and another s3 and last one the galaxy s2..if yu can hold around 200 gms of weight and make calls then theres nothing like it..else go for s3 or htc one x.or even s2...they r equally good options ..i just deduct a star for its size and weight..
