Samsung Galaxy Note: 5.3", 1200x800 SuperAMOLED, S-PEN stylus, 2500mAh attery... *phew*

[Sickboy]

Iphone4s - but I only got it to see me with a phone for a few days/week. I have been using the Galaxy S2 from it came out. I was going to wait for the S3, but when I held the note, I knew it was for me.

The screen looks freaking class.

The screen is great - brighter than the SII too - which makes it even better on a bigger screen. The Pentile matrix is pretty much un-noticeable which is a big plus.

Looking forward to the ICS updates.

Is the note also called the N7000 and its dark blue?

yes and yes. Mine said dark blue on the box - but as far I can see it's black.

^^ The battery cover is very very dark blue but so close to black its hard to tell except under certain light conditions.

Anyone know how to turn the clicking sound off on the stock keyboard?

Settings, sound and work your way down the list turning stuff off.

that turns the dialer click off too which I want to keep - stupid Samsung kb doesn't have a 'sound on key-press' option like other kb's. Also no text correction settings

 

[Grrrrr]

Use another keyboard then? The Samsung one really is rubbish

want it for the pen features and like the row of numbers - now have to use ICS Keyboard when not using the pen because Samsung's software dept is full of *****.

Random thought!
What are these like to sit on?
- I always keep my iPhone 3Gs in my back pocket, effectively sitting on it!
When I am driving or at work.
With such a big screen I am concerned I may have to put it in other pockets do not to crack the screen...

Will know by 7PM, if I am buying a Note or S3.

Unless you weigh around 4-5 stone I wouldn't advise sitting on it. I don't know anyone who keeps their phone in their back pocket. :/

 

[mrk]

Yeah wtf, sitting on your phone while in the car? wtf.

You might not know by 7pm, I don't think Samsung will be doing the live 'what does the phone feel like when you sit on it' test...

potentially dangerous too if you get a call and have vibrate on while driving through town.

But no doubt their models doing the sitting wouldn't break them any way.

 

[Seanoog]

Really? People don't sit on there phones...
Ohh well good too know: Note Not Advised For Sitting On.

 

[kona786]

Sit on face - Yes.
Sit on Phone - NO!

 

[Robbo]

It would probably be fine if you sat on it quite a lot (not too aggressively), but really...

 

[Grrrrr]

I wanted to update Swipe today so removed the pre-installed version and installed the Beta from the Swipe website. When installing you only get the option of the tablet version. I thought I'd have a look anyway and... it's not very good really. Even for the note the keys were too small.
