like most i was worried about the size of this phone but choose to give it a chance and i am so glad i did. after using the phone for just a few days the size was no longer a problem. now when i pick up my iphone it feels so small almost like a toy. the large display is so crisp and clear and it is so nice to be able to view web pages in their entirety not just a small part like i was able to see on the iphone. the other thing i was worried about was moving my music and movies to the android OS. that was no problem either thanks to doubletwist (found in app store). it allowed me to move everything over via wifi in no time at all. the call quality is every bit as clear as anything out there. the dual core processor is plenty fast even when multitasking. the only down side i have found is wishing the battery would last longer after a day of heavy use watching movies making calls and playing games and music. after a few hours of heavy use i do find i need to recharge the phone. other then that, this is a great phone and i do not regret my choice to buy it at all. give it a try, if u can get use to the size you will not be disappointed in any way.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Finally a phone for people who are tall

Finally a phone that fits my hands, I won't have to worry about the misspellings anymore. The phone design, plus the S pen makes it a worthwhile choice for someone who would like to keep business with them but not have to lug around a laptop or tablet.
I purchased this product becasuse of the size and design. I was going to purchased a tablet. But I purchased this instead. I love my galaxy note. It is my favorite device.
The Phone is great in almost all areas. It does fit a pocket. Screen is easy for reading e-mail etc. Battery life is limited.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color
Cons: short battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!

A gigantic phone. A small tablet. the first time I saw this phone it was love at first sight. It runs really smooth with a hd display. I recomend a large or unlimited data pack but everything else it's just awesome
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Way better than the iPhone

I have had an iPhone for over 4 years, and decided to switch only 2 days before deciding to go back to Samsung and the Note. I couldn't be more happy with this purchase. The phone is a bit heavy on the battery consumption, but this is also determined by frequent use with high brightness.
I had the Galaxy SII i777 and was happy with the phone but I needed Tablet features but didn't want to pay the high price of another data package(Grandfathered into unlimited). This phone does all that and a really nice screen to top it off. I have not had any issues so far and some things seem to work better than my old phone, blue tooth audio for one. The S Pen is amazingly fun to use and it accurate down to the pixle since Enterprise access to work(RDP/ICA) is kinda small on the screen but it handles it like a champ(big fingers). FYI it's not Blue, its more like Magnetite and would have been a better name since it's the Galaxy were talking about;)
