SQ & (semi) reasonable postage??? is it April 1 already?
Almost. They may be practicing for the big day. :)
yea I just realized the steep postage… ouch
I "note" that the Note at DWI http://www.dwidigitalcameras.com.au/store/product.asp?idProd… is now $556 with no extra postage charge. Bit higher than last time I looked at DWI - it was $545.
Please don't neg this comment just 'cos you don't like DWI - it's just here for factual info and comparison - not a DWI recommendation.
I got my Note from DWI and I cant fault them on the service. It arrived in a couple days exactly as promised.
And also FYI the DWI sister-company is $555 http://www.eglobaldigitalcameras.com.au/samsung-galaxy-note-…
I' negged you guys for mentioning DWI.
And I've +ed cos he negged. ;)
Obviously I'd have negged you back, but I'm out of ammo.
Great phone (disclaimer: I own one) but I couldn't help having a little giggle at
"Full screen utilization for fast and effective tasking"
What does this even mean? There are phones where the whole screen isn't used?
GNexus wastes half its screen with soft buttons.
so the Galaxy Nexus has buttons that are 640 pixels high?
oh right yeah
Yeah i find ICS abit of waste with the buttons on the screen and such
waiting for vodafone release…
Optus just released their SGNote plans starting at $5 on $59/month, which is ridiculously expensive. Vodafone would be better, but I don't think it would be that much better. Cheaper to buy those grey imports and use LiveConnected.
Agreed, much rather have it cheaper with a choice of month to month plans. 2 year contracts suck
cant agree more. plan for live connected is only 11$ pm which is around 260ish for the plan. Still better than playing 1000 in total from any carrier. Plus you dont have to be stuck on a contract for 2 years.
i couldn't have put it better myself
Dont they realise this phones been out for 7 months or so? lol
Are these Telstra 4G compatible? I'm waiting to see if Samsung release a "Telstra 4G" version.
No the 4g version of the GNote only comes with US 4G bands, like "the new iPad", so it will never work here. And the 4G version uses a different (and crap) cpu.
Off topic but new iPad, it will work here as the specs for its 3G capability are same!
Getting better, I quite like the size & once these suckers are sub-$500 (shipped or B&M store) locally I'm taking the plunge! :)
like-mind ,but it might be a few months to go, not sure if I could hold that long :(
At the rate they're dropping I'd be thinking about a month or so I reckon! ;)
not bad, but I am waiting for the tablet version of this, that pen(well one a little better 256v128 levels of sensitivity) 10.1 inch screen = digital sketchbook = awesome, if they hadn't announced that I'd get this
s-pen doesnt work with draw something
it does - just not as good as in smemo.. WAYYY BETTER then a finger
should have been called the Pen-S lol
Anyone know if I can pick up?
I paid $150 more at launch, at this price it's a steal! Yet to see a phone come close to comparing.
I love my Note. Just wish it was bigger. Seriously.
wouldn't fit in pocket if it was bigger i reckon.
can't wear skinny jeans with these
Noob question - is it straightforward updating the software to Ice Cream Sandwich when available? Do you lose settings, data, etc when you do?
google it
Brilliant, thanks a bunch. No reply would have just as helpful.
Simple answer: Yes to the first & No to the second.
best phone in the world
Is it better than the Galaxy S2 ?
apparently there is no champion in every aspect of a smartphone so really comes down to what matters to you most. IMO you won't find it inferior to S2 in general
I'll tell you why I got a note instead of an S2:
Better processor (Dual 1.2 GHz vs. Dual 1.4 GHz)
Much much better screen (S2-800x480 vs. Note-1280 x 800) (2.67 time better)
Battery is much larger (1650mAh vs. 2500mAh) (51.5% bigger)
Its bigger (4.3" vs. 5.3")
The Note comes with 16GB of space but a has a slot for a 32GB micro SD where as the S2 come in the 16GB as well the more expensive 32GB but has no micro SD slot)
It wins on all fronts
You mistook the last aspect. Its the Nexus not the S2.
Battery larger but the screen and processor also higher which will consume alot of power I assume.
Looks like this expired. It's now $578.95 + postage at http://www.shoppingsquare.com.au/p_277477_Samsung_Galaxy_Not…
It was expired but it is back again today at $529.95 + postage.
Any difficulty fitting it into your pants without awkwardness?
Yes its awkward, but the phone fits easy.
Please explain, how can it fit easy if it's awkward too…
It's cheap! I just back from HK and there is HKD $55XX.
