heh, I guess she hit the D key instead of the S key when she typed it.
Well, it might have monkey glass Less strong ... but allright.
I wonder how tough it is. Many people thought it had Gorilla Glass and that was part of their reasoning behind not using a screen protector etc...
Now not knowing how tough it is I wonder if people will reconsider going "naked"

Yes, I assumed the same thing, but I've gone "naked" with all my smartphones for a couple of years and never scratched any of them except my very first iPhone original model.
I wonder why they skipped the Gorilla Glass...all the other Galaxy S models have it. Maybe GG doesn't do the curve well?
I went naked with my EVO and never had a scratch. Just don't put it in your pocket with sand or car keys. Glass is very difficult to scratch.
Looks like Google is starting to cut corners.
They seem to have left out a bunch of things that were already present in the Galaxy S phones. Maybe to rush to market? Holiday sales?

I thought Gorilla Glass was a given on all new phones since at least iphone 4 came out with it. My Streak, captivate, galaxy tab, they all came with it. It looks to me like a step backwards on the Nexus S. Man, I really want to like this phone but...

Have you seen the prices of Galaxy S phones unlocked?
I opened mine brand new in the box.... and it has a few small fine scratches on it

I haven't looked but 570 after taxes can't be too much lower. I probably would have paid a little more for the SD card/Gorilla Glass/Notification light etc...

I feel this is the general consensus, and while I don't doubt there are many happy adopters of the NS, I can't help but feel some people are making excuses to justify their purchase. For example, many say we don't "need" HSPA+. Let's be consistent: there are many things on the phone we don't need. Yet when weighed against the fact that all carriers are pushing for "4G" going into 2011, disappointment over the lack of it is perfectly justified.
I want to like the Nexus S, as well.
youtube scratch test please
Highly recommend realook to anyone thinking of getting a SP
not sure if NS version is out yet
But I have one on my vibrant and cant even tell i have a SP on

I completely agree. Just because Google tells us that this is the best they could do this time, we have to bow down and take it; or find excuses to justify our purchase. That's why I got rid of my iphone; I was tired of making excuses about its limitations. I can forsee lots of buyer's remorse very soon.
Well it's been reported that the MT4G doesn't have gorilla glass either... screen seems just as strong as my Vibrant's, but again, that's just my opinion... haven't actually tested it heh.

I agree.
Google hasn't given any good reasons for people to go for a N:S instead of other phones (for example Galaxy S, which IMO still is better).
I run into people all the time who see my phone and have no idea what it is or even that it's a phone readily available from ATT here in the US.
They have no idea. Most people actually like it and want one. A handful think its HUGE. I am so used to it don;t find it big. I find the iPhone and my SGS2 extremily small now.
It appears Samsung really doesn't push this phone like they did the S2 and now s3.
I am beginning to wonder whether or not a "Note II" will be released.
Anyone have the same experience when other's see their phone?
Yep here the same, a lot of ppl i met did not know that device here in Germany as well. 10% think its to huge but i tell them in even 3 days after i got my SGN i never touched my other SGS1 and SGS2 incl. the SGT7
Well first of all remember that 80% of the population barely pays any attention to gadgets. So it's not suprising that a relatively new device like the Note is still not well known. I guess it also depends on the level of promotion. Samsung ran the Superbowl ad but I don't know how heavily advertised it's been after that.
In India the Galaxy Note has been massively promoted right from the start, something which surprised me at first. However it's been a big success and even regular people seem to be aware of it. Whenever I show it to people, the reaction is generally very positive.
I don't think there is any question that the Note has been a big global success. I think there will be another massive round of promotion around the Olympics and I will be surprised if sales are less than 10 million at the one year mark.
There will definitely be a Note 2 though possibly it may not come this year. There isn't much serious competition yet in this category and Samsung may decide that the Note will continue to sell well. In that case they may postpone the Note 2 to sometime next year when they could ship with Jelly Bean. My guess though, is that the Note 2 willl be released around November this year.
yeah in India, Samsung has done proper marketing for this phone. It has sold well too. I see a huge number of people using it here..
Most people I meet, just look on and are surprised GNote fits in my standard trouser pockets! Confused with a 7" tab.
Hi all. I really hope that a Note II comes along. I'm absolutely loving my GNote. The size is perfect!! I'm from Trinidad and the reactions that I've had have been split 50-50. For everyone that wants one, someone else thinks it's massive and they wonder....how can that fit in your pocket?!? Silly question really...standard pockets have ample room for the GNote. Unless you're a chick....or a guy who's metro or something....
Here in the Netherlands there is an amazing amount of people who have the Note.
I see them literally everywhere.
Sammy has advertised a lot on T.V. and bus stops.
It's unbelievable, they keep popping up.
Although it is a device not so hard to miss right
In Malaysia, Samsung did a great promotion. My company have around 40 staff, we have 7 staff using galaxy note including myself.

With any luck, there will be a Nexus Note.
For me, the Galaxy Note is dead in the water. I went through 4 units, the last being croaked by ICS, and it also had the eMMc bug. Onwards and upwards. Talk of the Note 10.1 and Note Mk2 seem interesting, but by the time they hit the streets in the UK, other manufactures might have something else to consider.
These devices are way too expensive to take risks with, and considering the now tarnished reputation of the Galaxy Note, its a once bitten, twice shy situation. Its a great shame, the Galaxy Note could have been iconic, but its not. The experience of owning one soon becomes a burden. Watching the Samsung ads on the telly just making you feel a complete fool while you wait for the next replacement to arrive, and then, its only to find its just as bad as the one you sent back. Then comes the acceptance this is about as good as its going to get, so you keep it. I had in my mind that it would be out of date anyway, within a year or less, I could flog it on eBay and get a better, faster, more reliable, more feature rich upgrade. Samsung wasn't going to let me have that luxury, they hit me with the Ice Cream Sandwich. Well I'm not going to repeat that part of the story here, but suffice to say ICS to me meant 'Instant Crippled Samsungnote'. That was it, I'm out, I'm not sacrificing any more of my life in a quest to get something that really doesn't exist, and that something, is a product free from major defects and faults.

Exactly, other devices have problems that affect day-to-day use for crying out loud. That LG 3D phone suffers from ghost calling, where the owner of the phone doesn't know calls were coming through, the iPhone dropped calls if you held the damn thing in a particular way! WTF are people whining about, when even the oh so mighty Apple even have flaws in their products that can affect all users, not just those who hack the crap out of them.
For a normal user who doesn't tamper, they will probably never know there is a fault with the emmc in the Note, everything else is pretty much software and can be sorted relativity easy. And for those users if something goes wrong Sammy will fix it, replace the unit, which ever, not the half arsed attempt like apple did and gave owners a cover!
They didn't fix it, they literally just covered the problem up.

Couldnt agree more !!
I have to say, of all the phone companies out there Samsung have always been my favourite, The build quality isnt as good as say..... HTC, but in terms of hardware ive never had a fault !
Samsung seem to be the only ''Developer Friendly'' company out there! Replacing bricks, no questions asked, Releasing Source code instantly (SGS3 code was released before the phone !)
it all boils down to the user, I wont judge you for not liking the Note, But no matter what you say, You will not stop me liking the Note
I love my Note (Phablet) !!
4 units and you still get the same "defects"?
i'd say it's a user error.

I dare say there are lot of very satisfied customers, but that is no excuse to continue to sell defective units, which it appears there are. Also, it is not an excuse to ignore, or disadvantage the minority who do most certainly have problems with the product..
Read my profile. I do know about andoid and where it came from, and I do know what runs under the hood of the 'note. Apart from that, I don't understand your argument. I own a Mitsubishi Truck and I don't care what's under the hood, that's Mitsubishis responsibility, and that's what they are paid to do.

My Note is running Asylum (a CM9 build) ROM. I have had ZERO screen issues. Stock ICS isn't bad, Touchwiz definitely isn't my favorite framework, but the good thing about Android is you DO NOT have to keep it. The Note is by far my most favorite phone I've had (And I had an Iphone).

.. being an early adopter, and running into huge issues? O_O this is my first Nexus device I am going to purchase, and I'm planning on ordering it day 1. Should I be weary of "defects" from a first batch or no? Has this happened previously with a Nexus PHONE? (not a tablet).
I'm planning not to "wait a couple weeks and see the reviews" because in reality, we all got the same phone, so why wait to get the SAME phone? The only difference will be knowing what the "defects" are, which I honestly don't think there will be a whole lot plagued with this..
There shouldn't be major hardware defects. Although software glitches should be expected and Google will push an update to solve those relatively quickly.

The same with buying any other smartphone.
Every smartphone out there has flaws that get blown out of proportion when released. Huge flaws? rarely.
Still you can bet your *** that I'm not spending $349 on a device until I feel certain, through enough reviews and early adopter feedback, that the issues are minor enough that they won't bother me. Otherwise I might have to pay a $50 restocking fee when returning it

Indeed. Just think of it this way. This is the Google development phone. So it's likely Larry, Sergey, Andy Rubin and the rest of the Google team are using. If it's broke, they are going to fix it for them and quick to get it usable since, well, it's them. By product is that we will get the same fixes quite quickly Best thing this time is that we are using the exact same model as them, no weird off variants like the Verizon LTE model.

In case of galaxy nexus, the initial units were great (as far as I know). Just wait a little over a week, see reviews from the real users, and you'll be fine.
I stumbled upon the GNex quite late, when the faulty units had already started shipping, my dilemma has been about all the screen issues with it...

I think running about 10 benchmarking tests would get any phone "hot". I'm sure the glass has a little to do with this when almost every other phone in the category is using plastic on the back.
I don't think any of the other reviews besides anandtrch noticed the heat but I'm willing to be proven wrong.
Also, I was on the same boat as you in terms of being a day 1 purchaser, but after seeing the benchmarking results I've decided to wait a few weeks before ordering.

Samsung is already aware of the issue. These phones are usually produced a week or two before they get into the customer's hands so this should be a non-issue for the ones coming onto American shores. And it's a manufacturing flaw not a design flaw like "bendgate."

Might even be fake according to comments. But we all know what @ssholes some folks are that hang around the interwebs.
Most likely is not true... But in case it is true... You can use the gaps as storage compartments... Or as card holders as shown in pictures... Nice feature... Lol
My Note 3 had a large gap on one side of the screen. It was like the screen wasn't set properly. I exchanged my phone and the new one didn't have the issue. Not a big deal. Issue was resolved.
You cant return the 6 plus for a 6 plus that doesn't bend
complete nonsense to even compare couple phones sleeping past quality control to fundamental design fault. I accidentally sat down with my Note 3 being in my back jeans pocket more than once (simply forgot, since I usually carry it in side pocket), so bending ip6 may not be as remote possibility as some want to make it.
its for the new screen shield
I went best buy to play with the Note 4, I tried to stick a business card and there was no gap there.
Scare Tactics
don't scare us like that! but honestly, sammy always takes care of it, and seeing as how the phone is already out in other parts of the world, we shouldn't see any issues over here in the US. its one of the only pluses to not getting a phone first :good:
