Samsung Galaxy Note II

Samsung Note series is the best phones to use for official purpose

The good Oodles of screen real estate make the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 terrific for videos, games, and reading; and its improved stylus aids productivity. A blazing quad-core processor, a great camera, and strong battery life round out the advantages of this Android 4.1 phone

In 2014 I received my Samsung Galaxy S5. I love it's waterproof, and a very strong battery life. Camera performance is awesome. I no longer use my compact camera as my S5 is now taking decent pictures. Plus it is handier! Some time in 2015 I changed the OS from KitKat to Lollipop. Unfortunately my camera stopped functioning after the update. Any time I use the camera, I needed to restart the machine. I checked the phone again and, happily, it was going back to normal. Now I can shoot again!

usign this for last 3 months no problems with this as its a wonderful .

samsung galaxy note 2 is best phone to use. It is having erfect viewing experience on-the-go, Latest Android 4.3 - Jelly Bean (OS upgrade available),14.09cm (5.55) HD Super AMOLED, 8 MP Auto Focus Camera with LED Flash,Air View, Popup Note & Popup Play and many more. 

All round the phone is great.

I just wish the keyboard function was different. Often need to change windows when trying.

Really happy with this phone, great functionality, easy to use. The screen is very clear and image very clean, it has a great LED Flash 8M camera, battery life is pretty good at almost two days, and all the apps installed work perfectly, especially the sat nav and maps which I use often.

I recenty got this unit and have been highly impressed with its performance in many areas. It has a giant hi-res screen and yet the battery life lasts about a day and a half. The standard battery is 3200 Mah yet the phone is only 1/4" wide. It has a 8 meg camera, which shoots great high resoltion photos and video. It has many internal app that allow you to use the included stylus to manipulate and color or play with the photos in very interesting ways.

It has all the best of Android 4. ice cream sandwich software to run it as a phone and yet is really large enough to use as a tablet.

Hence the new term "PHABLET" a Phone/Tablet combo.

It is the largest phone out in the wireless market at this time and for some it may be a lttle to big, especially if you have small hands or just dont want a large touch screen smartphone. But you only have to spend one day with it and you will never go back to a smaller screen.

I would highly recommend this SAMSUNG phone even though it is a little expensive because of all of its combined phone/tablet features. But you really get a lot for your money.

OK, so I've tried to break my Apple addiction, and my first step was to try out the Galaxy Note II.

Let's start with the positives: the display is fantastic, and functionality is definitely better than I expected for a non-Apple device. And price-wise, I got a good deal.

But unfortunately, I was more disappointed than anything else. The negatives:

- The SPen is small and the button is hard to find

- The back panel is way too slippery (dropped a few times)

- The speaker basically sucks. Needs to be much louder.

I'm going to try to get used to it, so there's hope yet.

The size of this is amazing. Some people complain about big phones however as long as the phone is thin, having a bigger screen is so much better provided it still fits in your pocket like the note ii. After getting this I barely touch my tablet anymore.
