In case you don't want to reward BGR with page views, here's the summation:
The phone is too big. You will look stupid talking on it, people will laugh at you, and you’ll be unhappy if you buy it. I really can’t get around this, unfortunately, because Samsung pushed things way too far this time.

Wow, he has a serious stick up his bum regarding the Note. I wonder if one of the smaller phones in orbit around it fell out of orbit and hit him in the head.
Everybody's entitled to their own opinion, but that was ridiculous.

Well.. Its allways a matter of taste and nothing to care about if you dont like it...
I know alot people wanting to get the note, so there is a market and a big demand for beasty phones like the note.

That site sucks so bad!! I can't believe anyone even goes there anymore..
Who could even care about such an opinion, being the fact that so many people wants that Note, including me, but off course I'm holding back because of the price that here in country rounds US$900.oo so is a little off my league right now! lol

As above, everyone is entitled to an opinion. All i can say is that the two people in my office that made fun of the note before i got it now want one, and my wife is asking for one instead of iphone 4S (she has iphone, ipad, and macbook air). Maybe BGR has small apendages...

hahahaha, he's just afraid his GF will prefer holding the 'big' Note instead of his 'tiny' manhood
Sorry mate but you are a real no-go compared to OUR stylus
An article about the Note that affirms that you'll look stupid and people will laugh at you when you hold it is just stupid. The writer's lack of arguments led him to write such a nonsense in a news site. Come on.

Here in India, Samsung is going bonkers with advertising campaign for note. You see it every day on almost all satellite channels. It has reached the point where people have actually started to recognise the phone in public. Everyone knows its Note.
Kinda feel bad as its not something rare or unknown beast that surprises people anymore.

Lat time I traveled in Europe I had three! One for my Oz account with my email / WiFi & contacts, one for my UK / Europe account (because Oz account charge a fortune over there in most countries), and one Sat Phone for use when I was at sea in the Med.
It got so bad I almost gave it all up and went of a Sat Phone all the time, but the reception is useless inside any building.
My neighbors jaw dropped lookin @ my phone..
Funny, I keep explaining to others comparing the same with iPhone, for me its my first Android phone, and I am running ICS and end up showing stuffs pretty much and there will be a crash or something crazy..!! lolz, though after two days I feel other phones are so tiny.
Now imagine this: i show my note and everyone asks:" how much did it cost? " and i simply say:" it was free... Won it in a contest on Stuff.tv site"
And everyone thinks this: Damn you bastard... I never win anything!
And guess what? I already made new friends because of it LOL

The only stranger who ever gave my Note more than a moment's glance was a guy I was sitting beside in a seminar. I was using it both to take notes and record audio, while he was using his GS2 to record, and one of the Galaxy Tabs (I think 8.9) to take notes. He was looking over to it constantly, surely with the thought that it must be a great combination of the two devices.
As far as non-strangers are concerned, my wife (an iPhone 4 user) is jealous about damn near everything I've shown her on it. She might end up with the pink or white Note.
I was really surprised with the amount of positive feedback that people gave to the note, including iPhone users etc.
Something interesting I noticed was that at my campus there seem to be a lot of folks with a phone+iPad or phone+playbook or any other tablet etc. (even my gf falls into this category). It just seems sort of silly to me to carry around two devices everywhere.
To be fair, though, I would never use the Note as a primary note-taking device, and have definitely seen iPad users use their devices for this purpose. Like some other users have mentioned, a 6" screen would be just fine in my book, as long as it still made calls.
However, if I didn't have a stereo bluetooth headset I would notice the size of it when using as an actual phone much more...
Ha. How about this one, I was on the phone with the Note on Thursday afternoon in the foyer of our business complex (talking to ATT nonetheless) and saw a Guy walk past me looking right at the phone and is massive size up to my ear and COMPLETELY forgot to open the door to go outside and slammed right into it.
I laughed and said holy crap bud you okay? He said nothing and ran out the door!
This is what the Note will do for you.

Well, the Note held to your ear IS bonkers for its sheer size...
Yesterday my friends made jokes about exactly this situation all evening long - and yet could'nt resist to playing arround with it. It got the attention from both Galaxy (SI & SII) and iPhone users...
Wish me luck.
It's going to be shipped within 5-6 Business days (maybe earlier)
I've gone android before, but it was the HTC Vivid. Then I switched back to the 4S.
It looks pretty sweet.
From the reviews I've read, it's 1) fast 2) amazing screen --- OH BABY, NETFLIX! 3) a joy to game on
Looks very promising.
The only thing I'm scared of is holding it up to take a call in public LOL

don't be afraid hold your head high and hold the bad boy to your ear, show the world you have real taste in phones and are not part of some apple fan boy flock who will buy anything because it has a i at the start of its name....
Congratulations on your new purchase, and welcome back to Android, we've been expecting you.
Did you not at least go to the store and try one out first, just to make sure it would be the right fit for you and was not too big?
I am sure you will love it. And you have nothing to be afraid of when using the Note in public to make calls, just own it, like a boss.
Congrats! Welcome to the fun side!

I'd really appreciate it if you didn't insult me (I'm grouped into the Apple crowd). Just because someone buys Apple and likes them doesn't automatically mean they are a 'mindless iSheep' or such. I own a Note and an iPhone and love both Android and iOS and couldn't live without either one. I would appreciate it if you weren't so closed minded about OSes and technology (ie. not a blind Android-Fan-Apple-Hater)

i make phone daily....i am proud with my note...i have white hybrid case with it and looks stunning people are asking me what is that gadget i wish it would have 6 inchi screen =)) lol.note is amazing special with stunner rom!
For some reason, I really enjoy it when someone else asks me if I'm using the Note. I'm not talking about the 'Wow, that's a big phone' type of stuff stuff. Just a curious 'Is that the Note?' and I just go 'yeah!' enthusiastically and flash a big smile back.
Got it from a security guard today - was showing my e-ticket on the phone to the other guard.
It's no joke that I don't attract any attention when talking on the phone in public - I really wish I got more to be honest, so I could tell more people about it.
honestly, I feel really weird why would you feel this kind of pleasure when you receive recognition about you using Galaxy Note?
I love my Note but it's just not more than a tool, it does make my life easier , like what a good tool does.
it's like you feel really honorable when people give you recognition about you using a really good drill when you drilling hole
"hey sir, is your drill Bosch?"
"yes it is!"(oh stop it you :$)
I hate the common questions I get DAILY at work (Work at a cellphone shop, new people everyday...). The list is
"WHAT!? What is that thing a TV? WOW OH WOW"
"WHAT IS THAT? Is that a Tablet? WOW"
"Oh is that the new Galaxy(Common Speak )?"
"Oh wow the note? Can I see?"
"How does that fit in your pocket?"
"Woah, that thing is huge"
It goes on and on and I really am starting to get annoyed, just let me use my phone! hah.

Rofl exactly the same stuff here. Sometimes positive resposes and sometimes the crap you mentioned
Verstuurd van mijn GT-N7000 met Tapatalk
Same here:
1) 60% of "You could beat someone to death with this brick"
2) 20% "It's too big, I would never use such a big phone"
3) 20% "It can't fit in your pocket" (while I'm slipping it out of my pocket easily)
Everybody who got forced to use it (like some people in my company) do all love it in the end. Even girls like it here in Switzerland: A girl i know and her mother just bought 2 SG-N7000 and both loving the screen size. And girls can fit it in their bags
Size matters, as Hugh Hefner always said
Some of my friends jokingly say, "where's your laptop?". I just laugh. I love this phone. As for the pocket "issue", it's not one for me. I typically put it in my back pocket, but it will fit in side pocket too.
My friends always call it a TV and according to them I look so silly having a phone call with it. But I don't really care because someone who didnt used will never know how cool this phone is.
Besides, they don't know how silly THEY look with their tiny i****.

EVERYONE!
You tell those that ask/make fun about size that it's thin enough to fit in the front pocket.
This is true.
I've had it long enough(months) to be honest and say that truly... it is too big as a phone.
I speak PRACTICALITY for a phone,
it's too big. I've almost dropped it soo many times.
But, I Love It! The screen is in my face! Yeah! If the next iPhone is NOT 4" or more, I may get the 'Note' II.
Also, when ever I text/use a friend's smaller phone I say to myself, "yuke, what is this?!"
Yes, I cannot go back. Who can?!

And especially silly when they are watching videos on it. Then I whip out my Note and watch fantastic HD videos on it and I get dagger eyes staring at me.
And another funny thing is when my colleague keeps saying the Note is too big while he squints at his Iphone screen, reading only 5 lines of huge text.

Samsung wins in the end regardless since who do you think makes all the processors and screens for all of apples products? There were close to 10 million S3s presold in the Eu launch, think about what that will number be in the USA. Is there any wonder that all these shortages are happening? I compared my wifes iphone 4S to my S3 and the screen of the S3 is pretty much the size of her phone its like the inphone display belongs on a watch or something, any wonder why they are selling them faster then they can crack the whip in Shenzhen?

I am giving up my Note.
I pay for my father's phone and his current one has died on him. Because his sight is getting bad he wanted a 'phone like mine' with a massive screen.
I have considered the Note 2 as a replacement or the S3 but am being swayed by the Sony Xperia T as I take a lot of photos on my phone and the camera was my only point of contention with the Note - the camera hardware/optics aren't that great.
Regardless, I'll be visiting another forum soon so I just wanted to say thanks to Chainfire, Dr Ketan and everyone else who has made owning a rooted Note such an amazing experience!

So it's ok, may one common thread can be started to say goodbye to all or such kind of thread should be reported by op himself after some period to keep forum clean.

Don't want to start any flaming but my main reason for saying goodbye was to thank those who give their time, free of charge or depending only on donations, to make our phone experience better.
Most people understand the sentiment of thanking someone for having a positive impact on their lives and experiences, but if you don't subscribe to that then just don't contribute!
My next phone will probably be the Xperia T, if I can handle the reduction in screen size that is. My Mrs has just got an Xperia S and its a great phone, the stock software is the best I've ever seen on a phone, build quality is excellent. Thing is things are just getting great with the Note development wise, so will be sticking here at least until the price comes down a little on the T.
Oh and another reason to get a Xperia T - Codeworkx has got one.
Enjoy your new phone, nothing like being new phone happy.:highfive:

why don't you use the official off topic thread for all these? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32250473

Great idea, but it was a day late - the thread was only created TODAY.

My next phone will probably be the Xperia T, if I can handle the reduction in screen size that is. My Mrs has just got an Xperia S and its a great phone, the stock software is the best I've ever seen on a phone, build quality is excellent. Thing is things are just getting great with the Note development wise, so will be sticking here at least until the price comes down a little on the T.
Oh and another reason to get a Xperia T - Codeworkx has got one.
Enjoy your new phone, nothing like being new phone happy.:highfive:

I got the Xperia T in the end. So far so good - the half an inch less screen makes a BIG difference but the T is great and once I'd stopped using the Note for a few hours I didn't miss it so much. The camera is just amazing. I RDP to my PC quite a lot and was worried the smaller screen would be an issue but nope, it's fine, so I know it will be fine for everything else too.
This will be my last post in this forum because I can't be bothered with the likes of abhinav and because I'm moving on to pastures new.
Make sure you use the NEW off-topic thread in future guys
(mods: feel free to lock this!)
I'm sorry this post devolved into forum philosophy but hey, enjoy the new phone! For me, its Note or Note 2 for the time being... screen size being all to me!
