real simple, I want to add another phone and I'm stuck between waiting for the SGS3 announcement at MWC or getting the Galaxy Note. So I figured I would ask you guys and get some feedback on which one you guys would go for and why?
waiting for the gs3 myself. Had the first one.. now second..and looking at the supposed leaked specs for sgsIII... I want it. But the note looks dope too. Tough call
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777
SGS3 is not even officially announced yet, m8.
Waiting for SGS3? by the time SGS3 released and well supported, you then wait for SGS4?
If I had the funds for the note, I'd get it yesterday.
One time at football camp, I put my shoulder pads in my arse.
The sgsII is almost too big itself, imo. The note is definitely too big for my taste, although a very nice phone. Rumored specs of the sgsIII have me waiting on it for sure.
i am def going to see what the note feels like in hand before i make the decision, but im split 60-40 toward the SGS3
Yeah the note just felt rediculously oversized and I don't no, I wouldn't wanna wait till October or something for gs3

The Note is a mini tablet. It even comes with a stylus. That should give you and idea if how ridiculously large it is. Good luck on your decision. I'd say just stick with whatever is best now and have fun. Worry about the future later.

note has nice specs but I wouldn't want that giant thing pressed against my ear when making calls, looking Ridiculous really. As for S3, it probably won't land on ATT shore before Oct.

Good advice. The only reason I'm thinking about it us because I want to keep the SGS2 for Dev work. I really want to start development in apps, rom's etc
Well, the best comment I've heard on the Note is whether or not you'd look like a douchebag holding it to your head talking on the phone, and I want to say the answer is yes which is why I will keep away (See picture below). As for the GSIII, it first has to get announced, which hasn't happened yet, and then it has to release internationally a few months later. Then a few months after that is when the US adopts it which is, I want to say, maybe near September or something so I want to say not worth it waiting for it.

If you have a badass phone now why would you get a half phone half tablet. Just get a good tablet and actually have the best of both worlds
But yes, cell phone contracts should switch to one year contracts, but that's probably never going to happen. Sounds most optimal, however.

Getting a tablet, once again the reason I'm looking forward is because I will use my Sgs2 stricktly for Dev work when I aquire the new phone. So I was asking opinions. As of now I'm 70-30 SGS3

Well, isnt the Atrix the sister of Bionic? I heard from VZW that it was delay due to melting issue. Over heat in situation due to the dual core it uses.

I like the fascinate, I dont like samsung, the samsung charge looks a lot like the fascinate, with LTE, and front facing camera, I think is better than the thunderbolt, but again, what good is it to have an unencrypted bootloader if the source codes are not released by samsung, see how we have managed with the fascinate, just hunting for leaks, fortunately we have better releases from our devs than from samsung or verizon, and it is very true what Nitsuj17 wrote, we dont want to support a company that wants to control how you use your owned and purchased with your hard earned money phone, screw motorola.
in simple words, I think I am leaning towards samsung charge

Correct and correct. Cyanogen (of all people) has actually picked LG over HTC for his next phone because of this.
I have been with samsung since my first cellphone back in 2004, I will be getting the charge when the price drops.
I think all of them will eventually lock bootloader. Either that or suck.**** on release like samsung. Tbolt looks promising, so is charger.

Same here. I think I'm addicted to the AMOLED screens (cause it sure isn't TouchWiz, using SPB Mobile Shell on the Omnias and LauncherPro on the Fascinate).
The Charge is the new 'big brother' to the Fascinate. The same guts more or less (nothing has changed profoundly), but the 4.3" SuperAMOLED+ Screen vs the 4" SuperAMOLED screen is sexy. Then you sprinkle a little 4G in there and some new cameras, and bam, you have the Charge.

With the OTA 2.2 update tho I'm pretty damn happy with my Fascinate once again. I really think it'd take a screamin' dual core 4G phone to make me really want to jump to a new on.
Yeah I think a dual core would make me more likely to upgrade even sooner.
The charge originally was supposed to be a dual core, but alas it was not to be.
$300 is steep, but if you think about it, its the exact same price as a 32gb iphone.
Think how much better a charge will be than an iphone:
almost 1 inch larger next gen screen.
lte
not stuck on inferior os
etc etc
If you think about it that way, the price seems much more palatable.
I just hope they make the physical buttons better than the DX. Those were flimsy.
That is steep. All of my last four phones were all under 250. Charge has less ram than tbolt. So what warrant the price?

i really doesn't tickle my pickle just yet. i need to see the actual device, i can say one thing though. too much chrome?
I'll leave that decision up for when I see the whole phone. But I must say I like the design if it really will be curved.

I am absolutely into it. Assuming they even come CLOSE to the reported specs, I am already a customer. Now I just gotta convince my fiancee to let me buy one off contract < a month before our wedding!
i was expecting a near edge less frame, mostly glass on the top. maybe a silver band around it, then a black cover on the back with no expandable memory and a non removable battery, oh wait...
but yeah, frameless glass would of been nice. more squarish too. round/oval looking phones are nasty IMO, on of the reasons why i didn't get the skyrocket.
As many 'concept' designs as I've seen out there, I would take this with a grain of salt as well. My understanding (based on other fact-less rumors) is screen will fill in most of the frame without 'dead space' like you see in that image.
My first Samsung ever was the infuse and i loved it. then i got the SGSII and i was blown away. made my mother buy a Samsung fridge too! But anyways, i have learned that samsung doesnt fool around. I am really expecting a good looking device. either way i will eventually give in and buy it lol.
I have to get myself a Nokia too.
Let me know when the AT&T pictures are released.
I'm with chris, at&t does have a nasty habit of making their phones horrendous from the international version. Why they can't just leave the designs I do not know!

+1 for removal of that center button.... makes the phone look super retarded imho... My mum-in-law has the int'l version, and each time I use it I get a bit jumpy cause I think I'll press the button too hard and damage the phone.
I dont think this is it....for example take a close look at III, last I is much closer to second than first and second are + third I seems little higher...second fact is that words fast vivid slim were already used by samsung for SGSII: http://bmobile.co.tt/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/ad_galaxys2.jpg
and the third fact....it looks weird at least to me....maybe only a strange render (if that happens to be real)
Never mind.

Don't jump to conclusions yet, wait till May 3rd for actual details.
I want to know if the GS3 att will be like the HTC One X. No quad core in place of LTE.
I guess we will get that answer if they say the GS3 is LTE capable. It would suck to wait months only to find out we arent getting the goody like the rest of the world.
Damn, those specs make my laptop cry of jealousy.

This.
I would love to have a nearly bezel-less phone. I measured with a ruler on my S2, and if the screen is edge to edge like some of the concept pictures, a 4.8 in display will fit on it without increasing the phone's footprint at all. This is what I'm hoping and praying for...
It may just be the announcement for the Galaxy Tab 19. We all need a 19 inch tablet.
Impressive, indeed. Though when I'm available for an upgrade, we'll all be waiting for the GS4 to be announced. Oh well, I just got my GS2 a few months ago and wouldn't want to give it up yet. Besides, the screen size on the GS2 is as big as I'll ever go.

I completely agree. My Captivate was the perfect screen size and I've made due with 4.3 but anything larger is just getting too large. There really does need to be more focus on battery life more than anything. I have many friends that would like to get a smart phone but they think charging the phone every day is too much... and I completely agree.

That is quite a chore, you have to plug it in and set it down. And if that wasn't enough you have to unplug it in the morning. Just terrible.
I am tempted to mod my phone to use a TouchStone, it is really convenient on my TouchPad. I heard the GS III might have inductive charging built in.
I just hope TW 5 or what ever they use is not only themed a lot more like stock ICS, but also portable to the S II.
I am also hoping for a bigger screen with a smaller bezel. Like the ONE X, but with thought out buttons.

user error? mine works just dandy! recorded the whole Devils celebration over the rangers and too kstills at the same time. zoomed in and out perfectly.
That's tragic, you made the determination that there are lots of defects based on your experience with the phone you got. Seems kind of silly. I would say based on the number of phones shipped, and the few comments on defects I have read in ALL the forums I visit.
In all honesty, both Samsung smartphones I had were buggy. Not just defective, but permanently borked in one way or another. GPS that doesn't lock? Yep, I had one.
Don't swear off one company just because you got a lemon. Samsung has its lemons too. When life hands you lemons.. send it back for a good one

since when has SS become the benchmark for good quality phones? They had a plethora of issues when the S and S2 first released as far as I'm concerned. My cousin got his S2 in Jan/ Feb this yr and it is buggy as hell and by that time the phone had been out way too long.
But anyway my suggestion: return your phone and wait for the S3. I think you will never be able to be satisfied w the quality of HTC phones because you have already formed a conception about them. Even the buggiest Samsung phone will be better than an HTC good phone according you. Return it and get another phone. At the end of the day it's your money your experience you should get what makes you happy. And by doing that you are doing goods as well since there are less negativity going on around.
Cheers.

Wanted to share this with folks, as I know a lot of you would like an early upgrade to the Note 2.
First, we are a business customer; that is my wife works for a large corporation that allows us some nice discounts on our service. We have 3 phone lines in our family, so we are not that big of a account personally..
I called CS today, and asked about an early upgrade. We are only in month 10 of our agreement, so I didn't think I had much chance. The first guy I spoke to was trying to get me to change my plan, and add a line, and do all other stuff, so he could "justify" upgrading me for $299.
I told him no, I didn't want to add a line, or do anything silly like that, and asked to speak to retention.
After being transferred, I politely told the gentleman that I wanted a $199 upgrade to a Note 2; I mentioned that Sprint and T-Mobile had promos for that price, and, I could sell our 3 phones on ebay, and make more than enough to pay the cancellation fees, but, I wasn't threatening to leave, nor did I want to leave, nor did I want 3 upgrades; just one for me.
He came back and said he could do the upgrade for 299, plus he would give me a 30 dollar credit for the next 6 months, effectively making the price 119!! (299-180=119).
I asked him to waive the activation fee, and he said he would give me another 36 dollar credit to take care of that, and, also, throw in 2 day shipping for free!
So, I should have my phone by Friday, and am excited to move to the note 2, especially at THAT price!!
My point is, it appears that now that Xmas has passed, they are more receptive to doing early upgrades for those of us that don't really qualify; also, being very polite, and nice to the agent probably helped me as well!
Thanks to all the great friends, dev's, and mods that I have made in this thread, and, a lot of you have already moved to the Note 2, and I am sure a lot more of you will be there soon as well. Hopefully, you can be as successful as I was in getting an early upgrade if that is what you so desire...See you on the other side soon!!
:good::good:
Sniff.....(wipes eyes)
There goes another satisfied customer....

So true, man..If we always waited until the next "big thing" came out, we'd all still be using bag phones!!

I really like the notepad feature. I can write easily, but the unit lacks portability.

I LOVE that 2 tone look....acoustic modems FTW!!
Its true that there will always be a next big thing. The flashaholic in me wants a note 2 but att extended my upgrade time to 1 1/2 yrs when I upgraded to the note and I didn't upgrade early. So wait until Oct or pay full price. I'm sure they would be happy to let me pay full (overpriced) retail.

I count on the prices on Craigslist to drop. I have never used my upgrade, because I never want a contract.

Not me, I figured how to get multi view and the fancy camera feature About Face. I'm set.

Have you guys not tried xposed frameworks and the multi window apk? Works on stock tw based ROMs.
