http://www.sprintfeed.com/2012/01/rumor-galaxy-note-heading-to-sprint/

wtf! I just bought my SGSII yesterday

CES is next Tuesday if you want to take it back.

I knew it i knew it i bet it will have wimax and lte haha cant wait

I personally think its too big, I'm very happy with the E4GT's screen size, its basically perfect for me.

im getting one the same day it comes out, ive been waiting on this

5 inch screen lol. Really?

My only worry is we will have to wait longer for ICS because they will concentrate on the Note. I don't think I will jump ship. Something better is coming the second quarter.
On my Epic mobile phone.

May have to jump on this. One problem might be slower updates than normal due to the modified version of touchwiz that comes along with having the stylus

I would really love to have this bad boy but not on sprint. I will pass until later in the year to see what comes out on not just sprint but other carriers.
Also if sprint does infact put this out then they better put out the full specs and not try to hide the crippling they do aka E4GT. Sprint better be upfront and honest and not try to pull the wool over any eyes this time.
Cant wait until the true hardware specs comes out. Lets see if sprint uses a 6 year old chip in it like they did the E4GT aka cheaped out.

Holy ****. I'm in. It's been fun guys.

It looks like a version possibly for att has surfaced, but it uses a qualcomm cpu like the tmo gs2, hopefully that is not the case or this would be a downgrade. More display real-estate and pixel density with a lesser cpu, no thanks.
If this turns out to be the exynos, that is going to be a hard decision.

What was the E4GT specs that were different to you? I got what I expected to get. The TV out actually working right was a added bonus that my E4G was suppose to have.

Probably because of the exynos/lte incompatibility. Or is it HSPA+/Exynos incompatibility?

This phone will not sell well here. I have a hard enough time selling the epic touch at best buy because its size.
Actually you know what, if I put the epic, the note, and the iPhone side by side , customers will notice the puny screen on the iphone and go with the gs2 instead

better hinges
more power, a real top of the line phone, with hoppefully the same overclocking capability
hdmi out for emulatorgaming
better and faster camera, the focus suxs
and a thick phone with a decent battery, none of this ultrathin crap

Na, like with the desire z, i'll just wait until the first blond 14 year old girl buys it and then don't know how to use it, buys a iphone instead then sell it to me for little or nothing
I payed 210usd for this last year, almost new :0
(Tapatalk, phone)

I'm also wanting to upgrade this yyear, probably going to get an android tablet next month, in which case, if there isn't a decent phone similar to this by july, ill wait for an iphone 5

the droid 4 looks like they have the right idea, but its to thin, and i dont like when they waste so much space on the front, no need for buttons,
and i dont like when they make some parts of a phone thin and others thick.

bigger screen, bigger battery and this would be mine

As I've said in numerous identical threads, get the MyTouch 4G Slide. We have overclock, our ROMs are mostly Sense-free with CM9 around the corner, and there is no hinge problem.

I don't think mytouch lineup is even available here.. its ugly anyway. Droid 4 would be the phone to get atm, but i'm fine whit DZ for a year more @least..
For more power i'm getting android tablet once the new ones come out. Probably transformer prime, but first, i want to see whats the Lenovo tegra 3 tablet. I would like a proper stylus enabled tablet.

The MT4GS is less than five months old and still a top-of-the-line device that's beaten the Galaxy Nexus in an Antutu benchmark test.

Sold my AT&T Note & ordered a Unlocked Nexus!

What's up I've come to the dark side, well the other dark side. I've been on XDA for a while. I just ordered my unlocked Nexus from Amazon tonight for $502 with 1 day shipping!
My short story, I originally took the GF to AT&T to show her the Note as I though it was the perfect phone for her. She doesn't own a tablet like me and uses her iPhone to read her Hollywood gossip yada yada. I figured she would love the Note.
I also ended up loving the Note too "new toy syndrome" so I had to have one. Our upgrades weren't due until May. So I went ahead I threw down $650 for the AT&T Note.
Now don't get me wrong the Note is awesome! But the reasons it didn't work for me is.... Well first my area was "supposed" to get LTE in June but that failed and was pushed back till 2013. So what good is a LTE phone will no LTE! That's a big reason I didn't buy a international Note. Also I fell for the old "the note will get ICS in Q1" silly me I think I'm done believing or hoping for carrier updates anymore.
And honestly I've been in love with the Nexus since its unvailing. It's such a sleek pristine looking device. Not to mention pure ICS experience. I tried to set my Note up like a ICS overlay. But still had that god awful touch wiz lag.
I think I made the right choice, obviously. Nothing taken from the Note but me already using my Tablet daily it felt a tad redundant to have a 5.3" display and my tablet. I think the Nexus screen size is perfect. I have big hands and was able to one hand the note while typing but felt like it could possibly fall. I find the iPhone to small like I'll crush it, the Note a little on the iffy big side. But the nexus seems perfect size in today's mobile smartphone standards.
So just wanted to welcome myself and I have a lot of reading to catch up on!
Can't wait to get my Nexus with no AT&T branding and bloat less! I was gonna get the white model but it was $40 more and I thought the black looked more stealth and clean. I had a white note but I liked how the entire device even the dace was white.

I just did the same. I am not disappoint.

Good to hear someone who understands where I'm coming from. Again nothing against the AT&T Note. It's just hard to beat the Nexus design and pure Google ICS bliss.

You won't regret it. A few weeks ago I was on the edge about buying the Nexus or not b/c of the price, but as soon as I got the phone all of that went away. It's an amazing phone and you won't regret it
Let us know how it is when it comes in!

Just did the same and Got my nexus yesterday.
However, the ICS version on it is 4.0.1.
I tried to perform a software update but it keeps telling me that my phone has the latest update.
Any advise???
Thanks

I had the intl Note and I miss it. That's probably my tech ADD.

Haha, understandable. My GF will still have the note if I wanna mess with it. It's a great phone but usually when I'm home I always grab for my tablet. Plus the Nexus screen is gonna feel huge being I had to use a spare iPhone 4 for a day until my Nexus comes in. It's only for a day or two but I feel like I'm gonna crush the little guy lol. So small!

Yea the S-pen was nice but I didn't use it as much as I would have liked, but again only had the note for a few weeks.
Now the the thing I used the S-pen a lot was for Draw something with the GF, but I felt like it was cheating hahaha! And I was much better challenging the little one in fruit ninja. I found it a lot easier playing it with the S-pen, plus I hate that feeling when I swipe the screen fast with my finger tip. Odd lol.

There are many guides on the web and also tool kits. You can try and follow the instructions here
Most importantly you will need to set up Android SDK and drivers. Once this is done modding any Android device is a few short scripts away.

Waiting on the carriers is not fun. The carriers do not have the end users interest at heart. Although buying off contract carries many risks with GNex this is a good device.

Since your contract will be ending soon, don't renew if you can help it... go here instead:

Galaxy Note 8 - That's just too damn BIG!

I thought this would be more of a tablet designed device but its just a HUGE SG3 and I mean HUGE!

I think the Note 8 inch is more like the Note 10.1 - meaning it's not designed for telephony use. Probably Sammy's intended response to Apple's new offering.

One of the other shots shows clearly that it has, what looks like, a speaker at the top. Just like a phone. Which doesn't surprise me as much as that there is also a huge bezel. I don't see how a phone call could be made on this.

But really where do we draw the line? Why can't larger sized tablets with cell modems also have the ability to make a phone call. I probably wouldn't use it, but it should be there. I gues there shouldn't be a difference between a tablet and phone. Just Android devices with cell modems that come in different sizes.

Ere...How about.... don't buy it? That's the beauty of Samsung, options.

Shame about the screen resolution. Samsung are becoming pioneers in innovation yet the screen resolution is still low. Either way, I'm going to end up buying it.

Yes, there's also an earpiece up top for making calls, as we saw in yesterday's shots. But that's nothing new -- 7-inch Samsung tablets have been doing that since the original 2010 Galaxy Tab.

Realistically speaking....it is a phablet and not a phone...soooo why is people saying that it's too big? the only problems I hav with the device is 1. the camera should have been 8mp. 2. the design should have been a little more innovative instead of looking like a bigger note -__- and 3. What is up with the pixel density? 189? fuh real? At least 260....Anyway besides all those disadvantages I think It's super awesome and one of the best tablets yet....look past the faults and you'll fall in love *_*

I am thinking for an upgrade for Galaxy Tab Plus and this one should be ideal, but it will be used solely as tablet (not phone or hybrid whatsoever). But I want it to have tablet layout not like Tab 2 7.0 JB.

Back in a phablet once again!!!

Well after a long hard 3 months using an Iphone4 after my dell Streak 5 bit the dust. I decided it was time for a new phone. My choices were either a MEGA or Note 2. I checked out both but to my surprise the mega didn't flow as nice as the Note. So I took it home with me and am now the proud owner of a Note 2:laugh:

Good community here, and I can't see it going anywhere anytime soon. Most people seem to be skipping the note 3 so I'd say our phone will still be relevant for quite some time

Note 3 is not my cup of tea. ..
That processor is gonna sound like a toilet flushing the battery. ..and the camera is lacking image stabilization. .
Leather black color looks odd. ...and 5.7 inches of display was a mistake. ..
Not to mention a guaranteed lock on the bootloader with endless exploit patches sure to come. ..
Sorry. ...I'll keep my rock solid note 2...at least another year. ..or until Sammy puts out the S5 active. ...

The camera does have image stabilization...
Also the processor is more efficient, therefore battery life should be equivalent to ours currently.
"13MP Camera With Stabilization
The Galaxy Note 3 includes an upgraded 13MP camera that includes smart stabilization. This is Samsung’s optical image stabilization which will make photos look better thanks to advanced technology. Users also have access to a host of camera modes found on the Galaxy S4 including Dual Shot."

Which is going to be thru software based. But having true OIS is a big difference...
The phone is moving where the lens is sitting still. It's like it's on its own separate gyroscope!! I first seen it on the Sony camcorder at the CES show. The other functions that we'll get will be nice. But I'll hold out till the next model. Where technology will be very advanced by then...
