Possible to get some of these functions ported over to Note 2?
The camera and camera software looks like the biggest enhancement, no mention of cpu or gpu tho.

It's either a 1.9Ghz snapdragon 600 or a 1.6 Ghz exynos 5 octa depending on the region ( it is confirmed). The Galaxy S IV is definitely not worth "upgrading" if you're coming from a note 2. But if you're like me phoneless then it is a great choice!
The S4 is a 'nice' upgrade from the S3, mostly on the software side. Hardware is a modest upgrade. But I would not consider upgrading from my N2 to a S4. N3...we shall see...
Think the LCD touch got great improvement with air touch and even with gloves.Nice for winter
Are any of those features come ti note 2? Camera is better but cpu update is pointless for me now. I really don't game that much and note 2 feels super smooth. Half of those apps could and should come to note 2. Any infos?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
What I like:
- Their presentation (Finally something different, not just a guy standing on the stage blabbing about new features. Also stream was good quality and stable)
- New CPU (Although difference would really be only in games - S3/N2 is already incredible smooth. Also I'm not sure about battery usage of the chip. Must be incredibly high with all cores online)
- Air touch (mostly for interacting with mouseover elements on web pages like drop down menus, don't care much about gestures. Still I can pull out S pen on N2 if I find that page, which are thankfully rare nowadays)
- Glove thingy (does it work with thick ski gloves or just thin ones?)
- Smart pause (although it most likely does not work with 3rd party players which makes it useless for me. Maybe xda will step in? (somehow link it to simulating physical pause button))
- Temperature sensor (barometer on N2 is not really useful, at least there are no useful apps for it except for just displaying sensor data. But temperature could be somewhat useful)
What I don't care about:
- Most of the software improvements (mostly gimmicks - things nice to have and show around, but not really that useful.).
What I don't like:
- Pentile screen
So unless you have spare 600 dollars laying around, I don't think its really worth upgrading from either S3 or N2. We have reached point (or we are very near reaching it) where interface on phones is completely smooth and lags are mostly caused by badly written apps or apps waiting for resources (NAND, Internet etc.), so speeding up CPU will not do much, except for games. And things that could make use of that power (voice recognition etc.) are being moved to the cloud.

Pentile again??? pfffff.......... can't wait to se a macro shot of the secreen next to a 5" 1080 non-pentile from the "competitors" . I'm really curious to see if it would suffer from the lower percieved resulution "issue" on such high PPI count. Personnaly i don't find either the s3 or the non pentile N2 to have a sharp screen... hopefully the N3 will come out full hd with RGB.
P.S not a fan of the octa... those 4 low powered cores running the UI might and most surely will cause small stutters, i've already seen some hick-ups on a "hands on" video from the conference, but those phones weren't running the final release software soo... fingers crossed..looks like the days IOS is crushed in smoothness are still to come.....

What can we learn from the image?
-HW button for camera
-No HW button but ICS software buttons (like GalaxyNexus)
-Better SAmoled screen higher PPI, i dont think the screen is bigger.
-Edge to Edge screen
-Learning..
Looks pretty good huh?
Tell us what you think of the image and give us your opinion!
If it is, I don't want it! No hardware/dedicated buttons=No deal for me! Most likely this isn't the Note; I'd find it hard-pressed that they'd have a new version built a few scant months after the first Note was released. That would kill Note sales!
it is fake,there are any official information about note 2. but i like this design very much

If the screen size and resolution remains the same then you dont get a higher PPI.

EarlZ maybe was meant like the PenTile vs Samoled Plus. Same res but not the same res. And you know what I mean
From what I understand PPI does not care for subpixel its basically display resolution and display size.. it does not factor in the subpixel count.
Could be the Galaxy S3?
Apparently a snapshot of it was leaked in a promo video at CES this year.
If screen is edge to edge, that wouldn't be good imho. There needs to be a bezel. Otherwise you would have too many accidental presses just by holding the phone.

A design with such a thin bezel doesn't look too realistic.
Yeah I remember seeing that picture and others on sites but I'm pretty sure it was concept fan art for the Galaxy SIII.
Just compare the sharpness of the camera/earpiece grill vs the sharpness of the image. Obviously it is a render.
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium
It's sure a fake. Why should they invent a mobile phone without and buttons at the bottom. It's ugly without. Just my opinion
Note 2 most certainly won't have hardware buttons.
I'd rather have them too.
Will mimic the Nexus.
Google has already directed developers to begin developing with that in mind.
This concept is the Samsung Galaxy S3, not the second note (N8000)
Btw N8000 got the wifi certificate some time ago I am looking forward to see the younger brother of my phone.
It's a concept none of us will ever see in real life, but many will dream about.

Here's the thread:
Here's the spec's his friend has confirmed so far...
* A 4.7 inch screen that nearly takes up the whole phone, but some bezel space was needed for the camera, , speakers, mic, and so cases would fit on it. He said it WILL be HD and have a ceramic "micro arc oxidation" back.
* Quad core exynos (spelling?) 4412.
* The screen is Super Amoled Plus with HD.
* The camera is a 12 megapixel with flash.
* 2 gigs of ram.
*8 millimeters thick, and no bump this time around, just "smooth".
*2250 milla-amp/hour battery, but no wireless charging.
The thread is new so he will be updating it as he gets more info from his friend.
As always, it's best to be skeptical of new information, but, if this info is true all I have to say is HOLY FUARK!
Looks like an s2 with a sticker on the bottom.

My best guess would be specs similar to the HTC ONE X.
1.5ghz quad core (samsung may clock it slightly higher)
1gb ram, i dont see why it would go to 1.5gb or 2gb as this seems like overkill to me & not needed, ive never been close to using 1gb on my SGS2.
4.7-4.8 inch 720p screen
Overclocked Mali gpu, which would be disappointing as alot of us do that anyway.
8mp, 2mp - can't see that changing, i see no reason too
7mm thick.
Even lighter than SGS2
Ceramic back.

Isn't the back button on the wrong side too?

"...it will possibly have two optional launchers, ICS with touchwiz overlay and vanilla ICS"

All I care about is more MP in the camera....do this & I'm sold

I was really considering the One X before i watch this video (even though I don't have a clue what he is saying ) but after seeing this it's like there is a HUGE difference in screen size!!
I was thinking 0.6 wouldn't be that much to lose but it seems it is, damn you Note
Yeah I thought exactly the same but screen size on ONE X seems a lot smaller and I think we are all doomed to wait for Galaxy Note II or so!!!
I still say this phone is going to have major battery complaints.

I'm going to get One X when it is on sale in the UK and sell my Note. As much as I enjoy using the Note the last 5 months and still think the Note's screen and expendable memory is great benefit compared to the One X. I'm mainly changing for the 4.0 software shipped with HTC. Had Samsung kept their promise of ICS update by end of April, I'd be happy with keep on using Note, but I'm starting to get sick with general slowness of Gingerbread.
The pic alone should be sufficient to see how this comparison does not make any sense as all the others comparing the Note with "the rest"...
The Note is THE SOLE AND ONLY ACTUALLY USABLE SMARTPHONE TODAY, the One X is just one of the other countless, useless stupidphones I am no more interested in.
Most concerning part of htc one x is battery.
Does 1800 mAh battery will enough for 4.7inch device?
Note have 2500 mAh
One more thing i suspect is GPS, note have dual support gps + glonass, n thats y mote having marvelous gps fix, hardly i do have read complain about this, i think one x don't have glonass.
No memory card slot also annoying part for one x.
Some positive thing is powerful processor, n preinstalled ICS for htc x.
Overall i do stick with note only, if i explain just one reason, can't compromise screen size anymore.

He basically put down some specs and display comparison. He has that the one x, has that outsticking camera is a minus for the phone since it more likely gonna scratch. He also said that the screen viewing angle is almost edge on edge but NOTE is slightly better. Both are fast phones. Also his conclusion is the HTC one x is a great phone smaller better pocketable but the Note is still the slightly better all around phone. But the size can be a issue with some. And I didn't translate it word for word just a short version.
Samsung Note

Well, either this person had a small penis or didn't had a galaxy note.

I hope Samsung will release also some info about support of Android versions for this model.
Many people are mad with them for SGS(+) and Ice Cream Sandwich
I don't really care what size the screen is or how many gigaflops it's millions of cores can produce, just don't make it look like crap or make it out of something that creaks if you even glance at it.
Truth is that I will not replace my i9000 to S3 until S3 will be made differently I mean like steel all around (including screen frame) with carbon fiber battery cover, if it is going to be better - it should be better in every single way not just specs. I use my i9000 like an egg and it already have scratches on frame close to usb input and back cover because of my nail. No scratches on screen but i have tiny little dot on glass i do not know how it got there. Samsung was going with galaxy series very well - time to make a quad core tank with lifetime usage possibilities.

So your main criterion for choosing a phone is how it looks?
I've been waiting for this... Will it be the one for real?
surely will have great spec, but just wondering if it's worth its size??? not sure if will replace my SGS (one) or simply buy a tablet to meet my need for internet browsing while on the move... and hope the battery will last for 24hrs of normal usage (two emails/calendars sync on, various apps, internet etc) without looking for power outlet mid-day. My SGS hardly last for one day on one charging...
You could fit a 4.6" screen on a phone around the size of the i9000 if you ditched hard keys and had the screen almost edge-to-edge. I won't buy a phone you need to wear on your belt.e
What's the story with new phones coming in at 4.6"+ displays?
I would think the original galaxy S at 4'' was superb fit for pocket and portability. Increase that to 320ppi with a superamoled HD display and voila we have new SGSIII.
I can't see why they going for such big displays. I even have the 4.3"" HD2 and that's the max I would see for a phone.
There will be disappointment and exhilaration with this release. Either way I am buying this regardless....
EDIT: I am hoping for Wolfson DAC in the audio output. It must have this dac..

Not at all, we all know this thing is going to be a beast of a phone, so I have no worries about it's performance, but I want something that doesn't look like it was designed by an art student trying to be "edgy"
But it is getting to the point now where they will all be more powerful than any of us realistically need for the near future, so the look (OLED vs TFT is becoming more of a non-issue) is the only real thing that's going to differentiate them. I don't like the HTC aesthetic, it's just boring to me, Sony have gone all bling again and others like Motorola just seem to design their phones for corporate boardrooms.
Samsung just seem stuck trying to refine the "not iPhone" shape of the SGS 1 in Europe, and it's getting a little boring, time for something new. And it will probably save them a few quid if Apple can't keep suing them because of a physical home button.

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.

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).

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.

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.
