Too big for using as a phone as well ?!? - Galaxy Tab General

Thinking about giving my sgs to wife and getting me a SGT,,,,
But how many of you (dare to) use it also as a phone ????
I mean, it's a small/medium TAB, but a GIANT phone !!!!!
I would not mind to replace my phone with the SGT, but that will be like starting a new trend ... I guess

If you guys thing it's too big for a smartphone, have a look at this....

I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility, I tried it while walking in a mall and certainly did get a few strange looks but I think it's fine. As long as it fits in my pocket that's what matters.

Yeah, it only fits in the "rear-pocket" (dont know how thats called in english) of a jeans. But you can although see about 1/4; 1/5 of the device, so you better be aware of thieves...

And did you use it straight in your face like a normal phone? Someone mention turning it upside down and lowering the volume...
Does it work that way?
I'm waiting the oficial launch in Brasil to get mine, and I want to use it as my regular phone too...

I wouldnt want to walk around that way. It looks kinda strange. I think a bt-headset would be a good solution.

It Can't Get Better Than THIS ..

Each phone that is released has something new that makes me want to buy it. Some people want smaller phones, I wanted larger. Larger than this would be nuts .. for me anyway .. I couldn't hold a larger phone. So what is next? What could possibly be better than this? I guess other makers will just try to improve on this phone leaving the size alone.

That is why I am waiting for this one. For me the perfect size is the biggest screen size that will still fit into my pants' front pockets.
"It Can't Get Better Than THIS .."
Thats what she said!
it all comes down to the cpu/gpu i would think. 2ghz+ cpu's, gpu's that rival the psp, how about game streaming like that coming out soon, no need for powerful gpu's then. want to play the latest ps3 game on the go would be no problem with game steaming. but with that kind of option network operators would need to sort out their tariffs.
just a few thoughts
Tbh, I don't find the streak too big. But then I'm nearly 2m tall and can wrap my hand around it pretty easily in portrait mode..

I never really paid attention to your name, lol. I'm quoting a guy who happened to use "sheesh" when he was telling this dude to calm down. I saw it and it made me laugh so hard that people around me here at work asked me if everything was okay.
Aside from that I plan on using the Streak (if released for TMO USA) as my primary phone. I am currently looking for the best bluetooth out there. As I plan to try and not to slap the streak against my face.
From what I've seen and read the streak just seem overwhelming to us Yanks because everything gets smaller and now there is a tablet/phone that is breaking that barrier. When I bought an extended battery for my g1 you should have seen the reaction from ppl. They acted like it was a brick.

I got it because i wanted a Tablet not a phone but now i have used it my TP2 is on the back burner and i use this as my main phone,like i said its outstanding now but when 2.2 is on in sept (i hope) what will it be like then.
If i had a choice of any phone in the world this would win every time but i still do not see it as a phone to me its a Tablet that can make calls what a bonus

Thanks for the reply, i've just sent back my iPhone 4, and will be buying out my contract and starting a new one with o2 solely for this phone, hope it's worth it, but it does sound as though it is, also i've had a play with it in the o2 shop a couple of time.

BTW .. I have one of the Dell "give-away" phones. Unlocked for ATT and T-Mobile. I am NOT getting a 3G signal. I don't know if that is something I need to turn on or if it should automatically connect to 3G. On my Nexus One I could turn it on and off and I left it off because it sucked the battery dry half way through the day.

I plan on getting one as soon as they are released here in the U.S. I'm 6'7" or just over 2m tall myself, so I don't think I will have any problems using the phone myself. Actually, it will probably almost look normal in my hands. That's also why I got a Great Dane

Yes, main phone. It is just the right size for me. Perfectly balanced. Yes, ok, it looks a little big when you use it as a phone, but I am 6'3" so I can handle it.
It fits well into your pocket, you have to remember that it is thin. It isn't much bigger than some leather wallets.
I love my device... I can confidently say... I would be hard pressed to go back to a smaller phone now, as I would lose so much in doing so.
The streak is so much more than a phone.
When people (who generally that havent used a Streak) say it is too big.... well that is like saying a laptop is too big for a MP3 player.
shEEEsh said:

The only way they could make it better for the U.S. would be to make a version with T-Mobile 3g bands.
There is no chance I would ever pay $500 for the Streak if I still had to pay $65/mo for voice + data on Att with a 2gb limit.
If Dell actually follows through with a T-mobile 3g version then I will insta-buy it

Do other people laugh at you when they see your tab?

Well they at least laugh until they see how awesome it is
I find it kinda funny when i pull mine out and friends/family of mine who haven't seen it laugh their ass off until i show some stuff
Do your mates laugh at you with your tab?
hell yeah, my colleague mock it most of the time coz most of them are using blackberry
especially they keep acting using my tab on their face to make a phone call
i dun care though, at least my tab are getting their attention ^^

Yeah, thats pretty much how it is for me. Once you explain that you don't hold it to your ear and that its a speakerphone (nless you use BT headset or headphones) then it makes more sense to them. And as for what it can do?...

"Is that a Kindle?" is the funniest one I've heard...
yep, as above 'until they see how awesome it is'
then they get jealous!
bought my wife a 3g ipad for xmas and she got me the Gtab, or itab as i sometimes call it while mocking her with the awesomeness if it
her ipad lives in a bedroom drawer and never gets used by either of us
and that is the absolute truth
I just tell people it's the ipad2 with more customization features, and less of The Man to get in my way of making it look like I want it to.
Whenever I use someone's ipad I get all annoyed that I have to always have something open, whether it's the app drawer, or an actual application, can't I just get back to my home screen?

Exactly the same with my colleagues... Until we look for something and they try to read their small iPhone screen while everybody comes to check on my Tab because obviously it's more readable. Only objection from the same iPhone colleagues: "Yeah looks much bigger on my iPad". Unfortunately the iPad stays home because it's a pain to carry around ahaha
First thing I hear when I showed my tab to relatives: my ipad is better.
This was before the screen was even on

" there isn't free wifi here."

I get a load of laughs as well as the customary Trigger Happy TV reference but once they pay attention they like it a lot
ive done it when they were laughing at me..they suddenly stopped when i showed their own videos taken from gtab
No one laughs at my Tab because they see the H&K MP-7 under my coat or the H&K USP on my hip... Its highly unlikely they even notice the Tab when I have it in my hands. But if they did, and they said something negative about it... well, it would get ugly!

[OFFTOPIC] SGS2 is a total disappointment... "Important" functions NOT working...
I read about all the features of the phone, it all got me very excited but some things are not working...
First of all, it doesn't bring me beer when I use vlingo and say " get me beer"
Second of all, Crysis 2 is not running at all. Phone's not that fast..
Last point: I put my phone into airplane mode, threw it in the air.....
Worst transformer ever.....
The rest is working pretty damn fine, so its maybe not a total failure. What are you disappointed about?
First I was like "Hahaha.. NOT" but after a few seconds I started laughing at your post xD
I have not been blessed with a GS2 yet, still waiting. The only thing I could be disappointed about is: build quality/how it actually feels in (my) hands. Further the TouchWiz and Battery life are two things I am semi-worried, but you know TW can be replaced by custom launcher or ROM and Battery life should be decent with tweaks.

Build is better than it looks, but the same goes for the sgs1. Dropped mine once and nothing to see, wiped the grains off and no damage at all. For the sgs1 you could buy stronger backplates and the same will go for this phone, looking at its sales. Samsungs internal build quality is actually one of the best in the business so I wouldn't be to worried. Touchwiz 4 is quite nice. Huge improvement over tw3, still I ditched it within 2 days. Launcherpro all the way for me
It's so thin, i can barely see it, wait...
because the thing i am disappointed is, that we still not have it here in Germany.
We should get this Phone about the same time as UK, but forget it. We are still waiting for that. Most of the people are ordering the phone in UK or Austria because they have it already and not only that, they still get new charges.
I like this Forum and i would like to make some Tweaks on this phone too, but i don't even know when I can get it.

They ARE the best in the business. Look around, nothing comes even close. They manage to fit virtually everything in (more ram then anyone else, quality cpu, screen out of this world) light and this THIN -->

Other companies are feeling the pressure now. 4inc and over screens need lightness otherwise it just becomes a brick, but then they have to fit in all the top specs inside too and they don't have the tech yet to do that.

The Massive Phone Held to your Ear

I think it's odd how many people say the Note is too big, or you will look funny holding the phone up to your ear. I make at least 40 calls a day, and I do not use a headset, and not once has anyone said I look funny holding the phone to my ear. Maybe I do look funny, but nobody has ever mentioned it, or even looked at me funny. I think the first few days I used the Note, I felt a little weird, but now I don't even think about the phone size.

If someone doesn't want to get the Note because he or she "will look funny with it" and not because it's too big or any other actual reason - there's something wrong with that person, not the phone. Enough said

It doesn't matter when it's big enough to satisfy expectations my friend
I agree w. OP. I am a Prof on a 3 campus university. I am always walking around them and the research labs. I have no problems with putting the Note in my front pocket, talking on the phone with it my ear, using it with one hand and of course being able to do email, schedule, find a room number of a meeting - all while on the fly walking w/ or w/o the pen and usually using the dead accurate voice commands and dictation - never get a strange look.
I use the note like a computer and get things done with such less frustration than past phones ( moving between touch, pen and voice and using allot of gesture controls for speed). I am on one campus when a crisis happens on another ( I am a Grad Chair for a Interactive CS school on one campus and Dir of another small program in Cog Sci on another), checking email and voice inputting a reply or room number or person to call - saves me hours of frustration if I had let the problem grow and not made a quick fix or alleviated with a quick email.
The phone is a godsend and the 'it just looks to big for me being on my hip bus in Manhattan with my hipster friends ( hey I grew up in Manhattan) is just stupid press BS which we have to read all the time. Although 5 million of us know better.

Years back, the smallest phone was the trend and if you owns a small expensive phone, you would be the talk of the room! But nowadays, large device/screens are the growing tend. 4.3-4.6 inches screens seems to be the most popular but I think it won't be too long before the majority of people would adopt a 4.8 or 5.5 inches phone!
Thing is we all like to browse websites/check emails/watch photos and videos on the go, and to be able to do this with ease, we need more screen space. The Dell Streak 5 was great but it was built with very outdated hardware/specs. Samsung definitely has won the consumers by making the Note stands out of the market with the S Pen and some top hardware specs.

Off to something new. Maybe the HTC One...we'll see.

I still have my good ol' hd2, only one volume button works, bottom buttons are finnicky, and I had to sacrifice the radio antenna coax to use it for a wifi coax, usb port is broken out of the phone, but I still take it out of my drawer of dead phones and play around with it sometimes. RIP HD2, best smartphone ever made

Hi James, sorry to hear that news buddy,I recently passed on my HD2 to my wife and after very little use by her (tbh she barely uses it as a phone,more like an move player) she had broken the head phone socket,i.e the jack won't slide in. As you can see from my sig I've gone to a galaxy note as my daily driver, it's been a great move, but if you were considering the note, get the international version unless you really need the 4g lte of the us phone.all the best to you ..Marc

:crying::crying::crying::crying: I cant tell you how upset I am after loosing my HD2 today...
they say a person's anger is his greatest victim and I learned that lesson
Smashed my HD2 on the floor in anger...now I only have bits and pieces of it left. Was my first phone I bought with my first paycheck...more than the price was the emotional value of the phone...nothing can bring it back.
Take a lesson from my experience and never let your anger lead you. :crying::crying:
A last pic.
^ a Woman can cause so much rage but yours seems beyond that...
poor HD2. (though that thought sometimes crosses my mind - smashing teh pone)
