the screen is way too big.
it's like a mini-tablet.
besides the screen, it seems unique to the other hundreds of android phones.

I love the size and the fact it's a mini tablet.
I'm a big ass dude with big ass hands and it'll be fine or me. It could also replace my Vibrant AND my iPad 2

I love to have this thing but it might not find a way into US anytime soon

Wonder how the nexus prime will be compared to this beuty

Who's excited? I am!
Screw the GSII! Give me this, and you can have my phone and tablets.

I would buy in a minute i need a large screen I have Big Hands and It would be way easier to read on it.

wow I really like it but then again I can't buy a new phone.

Not excited unless we can port a fully functional gingerbread from it...which most likely is a no go.

It really bothered me that you only had 99 thanks...so I gave you one to give you your hundredth.
But after having a vibrant 5.3 inches seems perfectly fine by me now. I even the vibrant's screen is getting a little small, but it sure is beautiful.

This is my dream phone! Perfect screen size,great specs.Too bad it won't be available in the US

I loooove the huge screen!!!

wow your the forum police You have no right to tell me what to do. I have just as much right to speak as you do. I choose not to like samsucks but that does not make me a troll. PS did you ever read the thread NEVER AGAIN. There is a lot of ppl upset with the way samsucks don't update their phones.

It's a little to small to relplace my iPad and a little too large for me to want to replace my vibrant with it... Am still mostly on the fence but am thinking the Nexus Prime will be my next phone.
For folks who don't already have an android tablet or iPad i can see this device filling both the phone and tablet role... I just think there's a bit too much of a sacrifice in the middle...

I too am wondering about the Nexus Prime

That thing is AWSOME!!!

Definitely thinking about getting this, or the prime.

It is available for preorder at Negri Electronics for 750USD (a little steep imho)!

How to root video: http://androidroot.org/watch_video.php?v=3B53OKX72N7R
So, after many speculation it has a QUAD core CPU, 2GB RAM and a 5MP Camera. The only drawback is the 720 screen, not 1080, but anyway it is the perfect tablet imho, you can do everything with it!.
Will you buy it, and why?

That's WAY too expensive for a tablet.
Especially since it is a 16GB. They can't compete with prices like that.

lol 750 USD? this is gonna be a joke.

A Watcom digitizer is alone 200$ and when the tablet will be available on proper retail channels it will be around 550$. So, under that price it will worth every penny.

If the pen is not necessary, this is a subpar tablet. The TF700 is better.

This is the only thing that makes me want the tablet, SPen, and also Samsung build quality, i own the Prime and i know what i am talking about. TF700 suffers the same I/O problems like TF201.

I have been saving since introduction of first iPad to buy this. I have used windows tablets with wacom pens and only I know how frustrating that is.
Sent from GNote.

For that money they could provide NFC ...i don't understand the omission, you could pair it with your phone easily, Nexus 7 has it. At least it has BT 4.0.

it's a beautiful tablet with a great specs and s-pen but it's a little bit expensive.
i wonder what for the infra-red, remote control what, note 2 maybe?! samsung smart tv maybe?

Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 also has IR for the control of TVs and other IR enabled devices.

BTW, this device has the Apt-x codec for bluetooth audio (also BT 4.0 I believe). This codec works great and is sort of rare right now. OS X has it built in but it's sometimes difficult to use (other codecs compete, for some reason). Anyway, there is presently only a handful of devices that use this. I want it as I own a Soundmatters Foxl that uses this codec. It works well and sounds better than regular bluetooth audio (which is marginal).
Note: It's interesting that OS X has this codec but iOS does not. Lame. Also, it's apparently one of the only Android device that uses it.

I hope it does have exFat support (ntfs in my dreams .. ), my Prime has it.

Nice commercial:

What is it that you are missing?

Strange, why no 1080p? This one is top of the line Samsung tablet at the moment, should got at least 1080p. 1280x800 for 10.1" tablet is so yesteryear imo. Battery concern? Mali-400 can't handle 1080p?

When I sit down and give it a bit more thought perhaps I am being over critical...I just can't get excited yet! Will have to wait and see how it fairs in hands on reviews. I just hope the S Pen calibration is improved over the N7000. As a left handed user I find it pretty poor and the continuous cycle of having to reset the 'left handed' calibration option in the pen options is just frustrating, especially on a device designed to work with a pen! A slight bump in screen resolution and processor speed would have been a nice touch, though on balance these aren't necessarily going to be deal breakers.

I really don't need 1080 screen resolution...it comes with age (worse eye site)
As for pen, it's something different because it has 1024 pressure levels, not just 256 like our Note does.
Another selling point for me is the inclusion of 2GB of RAM, dreaming of dual booting in Ubuntu (or in worst case WinRT which needs a lot of RAM).

Sorry for the slight off topic but Touch Screen Tune from the market sorts out calibration. Does need root.

Also, if i activate the pen cursor in ICS i don't feel the need for any calibration.

I think I just found my new phone, upgrading from SGS2. The specs blow away any phone right now.
* Qualcomm 8064 CPU (Quadcore)
* 2GB RAM
* 16GB ROM
* Graphics processing comparable to the XBOX 360 (Adreno 320 graphics chip)
* 2000 mAh 3000 mAh battery upgrades
* 4.3 inches high PPI retina screen, 1280x720 resolution. The touch screen to do (the OGS / TOL), the single glass fit technology, Ultra Narrow design to protect the glass.

Not sure if it has expandable storage. But by currency conversion it works out: $315/£200!!
Should be released in October. Hope it works in UK

Nice phone! If only we could get it for under $400 shipped in USA. Hopefully works for T-Mobile....

even anand is blown away

I wonder if this will have solid rom AOSP/ROM support... you might imagine so considering it's running MIUI out of the box.
Also, battery life.

Will it have an english MIUI available though?

Great specs, especially love the option for 3000mAh albeit with an extra 2mm thickness. But no mention of an SD card slot?? 16GB inside is fine but not enough for me on the whole.

I want one so bad! Hopefully we can manage to get them here in the US for under $400... It's beautiful.

Based on what I've read, don't expect to get your hands on it until the specs are no longer a wow factor.
Apparently this company has some very interesting marketing strategies, the price is apparently more so an initial head turner and far from permanent. Supply is also iffy.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2

Only missing feature is NFC, but hard to complain about at that price with those specs. Even if it comes in at $450 or so in the end that's around the Xperia P range so not out of sorts. We'll see if they release the goodies for the devs to tinker with.

Has this gone on sale in China? Maybe one of the Chinese users could clear our queries with regards to this phone. I'm chiefly concerned about the following things:
1. English support (should mostly have)
2. AOSP support (almost certainly might have)
3. Build quality and spares!!
Damn it I live in India and we are China's neighbours. Start selling you phones here guys!

amazing what they can produce here :cyclops:

don't expect aosp support as they will probably never release the kernel source. the first one was okay... many of my friends have them but.although they get updates every week they still seem to be only about 75 stable.. the new one has me interested from a cheap hardware angle but I like beingable to choose my own Rom

@joshofbass
what do you mean by "they still seem to be only about 75 stable"?
reboots? freeze? I need a dual sim so that i don't have to lug around 3 phones

NFC??
Does anyone know if the MI-2 supports NFC technology?
I have seen many websites which write the specs and other useful information,but none is mentioning whether or not it has a nfc chip.

NFC is not listed in the specs on the official homepage. Neither is microsd support, btw ...

the best phone!

It seems that this have 2 times more RAM and ROM, than D5 series. Do you find this useful in practice?

Very interesting because of the combination 1GB RAM, Kamera, 600mAh and 8GB ROM, round case.
But why 4.4 and not 5.1?
Most 5.1 watches have 512 Mb RAM and 4GB ROM.
Is it possible to install 5.1 on the Comet?

YOTA3/Yotaphone 3 Officially announced

The YOTA3/Yotaphone 3 has officially been announced here (in Russian)!
The phone is being referred to as 'YOTA3' for the Asian market, but will be known as 'Yotaphone 3' in Russia and "other markets".
Here are some translated quotes from the post:
"The development of a new generation smartphone took 10 months. In general, more than 100 technical specialists from Russia and China took part in the process of creating the phone."
"The phone has two versions - 64 and 128 GB, also released a premium version of the smartphone."
"Compared to the previous generation smartphone, the new phone has a more advanced operating system Android 7 (Nougat)."
"The device provides for the use of two SIM-cards, has a front screen Samsung Super AMOLED diagonal of 5.5 inches and a back screen E-Ink diagonal of 5.2."
"The amount of RAM doubled to 4 GB, and the battery capacity was increased to 3,300 Mh."
"The smartphone has two cameras with increased light output. Resolution of the front camera is 13 megapixels, back - 12 megapixels. The phone is also equipped with touch controls."
"On the back of the smartphone an additional sensor is installed, which will help to more accurately determine which screen the user wants to unlock. On the front side is a fingerprint sensor, which simplifies user identification and improves security. "
"First, phone sales will be launched in China, then it will appear in other countries, including Russia."

There goes my wish for illuminated EPD..
Doesn't look bad, though..

I would've been happy with this device if it wasn't for the missing 3.5mm headphone jack. I use my phone primarily for listening music, and there's no way I will be carrying a clunky adapter or using some crappy bt headset.

It's coming soon :
https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2017/8/24/16196766/yotaphone-3-specs-release-price

So it has 3.5mm audio plug after all (GSMarena specs). But the EPD screen seems not back-lit and the PPI increased only by 20% (Yota2 235 ppi, Yota3 282 ppi) that's still not the Kindle resolution at 300 ppi. Even the Boox Onyx readers have 300ppi standard nowadays. Comon Yota cheaters.
Support:
Oh yeh and wondering if the support is going to be in Russia or China. They would have to up the ante in case they ever consider sales outside Asia
LTE
Big ambition. Dual SIM needs support at least 1900 MHZ LTE because the 2600MHZ is still spotty. I doubt it will have 1700/2100 combo required in Canada. Add 700MHz for use in buildings and you have a pretty tall order.
Otherwise upgrade from YP2 will not happen.

How do I import one to USA?

Quick chinese review: https://www.anzhuo.cn/review/p_21935

More stuff in chinese, the phone is now sold down there:

Lots of users pictures from the online shop JD: https://item.jd.com/5471470.html (scroll down)
Confirmation that there is no 3.5 mm port, but a type-C to 3.5 mm adapter is included.

Reading from the comments it seems there is no mirroring function, the e-ink only works with yota app.
That would kill it for me, useless
Sent from my YD201 using Tapatalk

I have just bought the Yotaphone 3...
However I can't mirror the main screen onto the eink screen of my Yota 3. I have the Yotaphone 2, so would there by a way to port the Yotahub/Yotacover/Yotapanel from the 2 to the 3? Also, all the instructions are in Chinese which is slightly annoying. Do you think the mirroring function would be added later by an update? Thanks
