Whatever you think about the form factor and size of the screen, there’s no doubting the fact it’s a beauty. At 5.3 inches, it feels huge compared to other smartphones, and the 1280 x 800 pixel resolution puts most netbooks to shame. Images really are razor sharp, and the Super AMOLED technology results in glorious colour reproduction. If you want a device for browsing media on, there’s no better
There’s only one real downside to the Samsung Galaxy Note – and that’s the feature that makes it unique: the screen. It’s simply too large for many people, proving considerably larger than the majority of smartphones.
Despite that, we love the Samsung Galaxy Note. The fact it’s ultra slim means there’s no effort in slipping it into a pocket, and once you get used to the extra size, you’ll not want to go back. Especially if you browse the web lots or enjoy watching m...

Samsung's Galaxy Note has all the trappings of a great phone. Its re-skinned version of Android gingerbread is understated and makes useful changes. Its screen is gorgeous to look at and a joy to use. Its processor allows for demanding multitasking and it...
Gorgeous HD screen, Slim and light, Powerful yet long-lasting, S Pen useful and versatile, Great for playing and recording video, Excellent value
Too large for some, Calibration issues with S Pen, Difficult to use one-handed, Gingerbread (but ICS update soon)
The Note doesn't quite live up to Samsung's marketing slogan: “Jack of all trades, master of all”. It's on the large side for a phone, doesn't fit into small pockets and usually requires two hands for messaging. However, if you can live with these comprom...
Gorgeous and huge 5.3in Super AMOLED screen, Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread, very fast dual core processor,
It's a big ol' handful, pricy, just big enough to look a bit daft when pressed to your ear
There's a touch of the Marmites about the Galaxy Note -- if you love its huge size, there's plenty to admire, with all of Samsung's top-notch tech on board. But if you hate the idea of cramming your pocket with such a massive device, nothing will persu...
As has already been identified in several other reviews this device is in a bit of an identity crisis and users are not sure how it fits into their lives. I would put myself firmly in that group as well, as I am still deciding where this goes. I love the...
Big screen is great with video and web browsing, Samsung's take on Android is smart, clever S Pen
Interface is a little sluggish at times, sound and battery life is so-so, not too pocket-friendly
We did warn you that we expected to keep coming back to the size, and of course we did. In a sea of smartphones, the huge screen is the obvious feature that sets the Galaxy Note apart from the pack. And essentially, it's a success.The quality and performa...
