Although it appears to be just a large version of the Samsung Galaxy S2, the Galaxy Note has all of the perks of both their popular mobile phone model, and a tablet, all rolled up into one. The Samsung Galaxy Note is a super smart, practical, and overall powerful device that will likely mark the beginning of the phone-tablet hybrid market.

High Definition Display

With a full 5.3 inches of vibrant, saturated colors, this HD Super AMOLED display delivers the best possible viewing experience available. With a full inch above most mobile phones, the responsive screen makes typing, steaming media, and browsing a million times better. For navigation, you have the choice of both touch, and a Stylus “S Pen” (which accommodates to both right, and left handed users), which gives the user plenty of options.

Photos And Videos

The Galaxy Note doesn’t skimp on it’s photo and video hardware, either. You can take crisp pictures in any light with the rear facing 8MP camera, complimented by LED flash, auto-focus, smile and face recognition, geo-tagging and image stabilization, and capture high definition, 1080p video. The impressive 2MP front facing camera is great for self portraits and video calling.

Plenty Of Features

The Galaxy Note lives up to the expectations of both a high-end mobile and tablet, with enough features and support to keep you busy. Not only do you have Bluetooth, WiFi, 4G (LTE), and a NFC chip, you also have GPS and an FM radio. Although smaller than most tablets, this phone holds it’s own with a tablet caliber battery, lasting for 26 hours of talk time on a single charge.

Perks Of The Stylus

With the included Stylus, you will be able to enjoy a variety of perks and apps specific to the S Pen. First, typing on the keyboard is easy when you prefer the accuracy of the stylus pen, rather than your finger tip, but the responsive touch screen allows both. Shortcuts with the pen make navigating menus fast and easy, with simple gestures that are easily recognized, you can go back, to the home screen, take a screenshot and more all with the Stylus. Apps designed specifically for the S Pen include S Memo, a note-taking app, which allow you to write and draw, and is intuitive enough to straighten rough lines to clean up handwriting and doodles. You can also play a variety of games with the S Pen, including Crayon Physics, or enjoy productivity focused apps such as Polaris Office.
