Cnet has a pretty good write up talking about it, but I thought it odd, but interesting, to compare something so small to something so big. While I don't agree that one requiring a full size dedicated tablet could easily forego that need in favor of a Note, I do find that they offer up some good talking points. I gave up my nook color for the time being, things are working out well for me so far, but time will tell.
Edit: Added pic.
They are comparing the note 10.1 which i believe is a soon to b released tablet... Not our phone so not sure why the guy is talking about our phone in the article????

Yea I caught that after posting and while reading comments on article. Wasn't aware of a 10.1 Note in the works. Will be interesting to see what churns out. I kinda like the idea of side by side apps...dead space and shadow gun at the same time...hmmm
Maybe you should change the TITLE to reflect it is the 10.1
I like the paper and pen quibble.

Just wait until Samsung OFFICIALLY announces the tab 10.1/11.6 perhaps even today . Just like before right after Apple releases their iPad Samsung will come out and top it. Last year Samsung went ahead and changed the ergonomics of the Tab 10.1 within weeks to have a slimmer lighter tablet compared to the iPad lol .
It was originally rumored to have a dual core CPU that similar to our Note phones with the same resolution. I have a really really good feeling that will not be the case that it could have a even faster CPU, & mind you that have not even said what the GPU is. I can assure you that Samsung has prob made changes to that of the specs we seen at Mobile World Congress, i hope
They will not let Apple go about their glory without a fight. Especially after them taking shots at the Galaxy tab during their keynote. Which someone at Samsung has already commented on lol.
Samsung has a rumor going around that they are "pocketing" a Galaxy Note tab 11.6" with a resolution of 2650x1600 beating out the new ipad by a million pixels.
Either way Samsung has something big today at 4pm central. Could it be the new Note tablet, ICS for our Notes? Galaxy S3. Who knows its still Samsung so lets not hold our breath lol.
I dunno about you but id love to buddy up my Galaxy Note with a 11.6" version
Well they I kinda only compared one set of features that really were pretty much the same thing. Cool but they over looked a lot of stuff on the iPad. This is coming from someone who hates apple products.

I will be interested in the Galaxy Note 10.1 once it comes out. I just pre ordered the new ipad. (I had a $500 gift card from a sales contest). It delivers March 16th. Depending on when the Galaxy Note 10.1 is coming out, I may sell the ipad. Does anyone know when it is coming?
I love Apple products, as a shareholder! Wish Samsung was publicly traded in the US!
Leak pics and introduce on 05/22/2012 of the SIII? I usually change new phones every quarter until i got the Galaxy Note. I will certainly stick with this untill Note 2 coming out just because of the screen. Anyone here have the same idea?
SIII Specs:
Quad-core processor – Exynos 4412 with ARM Mali-400 GPU
4.8-inch Super AMOLED HD display
8MP rear-camera, 2MP front-camera (as suggested by a supposed image taken with the SGS3)
2GB RAM
4G/LTE
Ceramic Case

The screen will be the same?
But i agree... I will stick with the note as well. And i switch phones a lot too.

I think that I need to calm my a$$ down when to comes to phones because I change alot as well. But this phone is defitnely my winner and the battery last me anough that I don't have to charge it fine times a day!!! Besides new phones come out every what two weeks? the s3 looks nice but just not as badass as this phone, I'm sure alot of us wouldn't of mind having this phone a lil slimmer lets leave it for the Samsung galaxy note 2

Wow, now those specs are awesome.. Just wish the camera was 12MP instead... But I def would cave in throw $300 @ that w/o a problem off bat. Might just completely hold out for this , the -.2" screen real estate wouldn't be missed coming from the Streak....
I feel like this is just a photoshop. Home button, power button on the opposite side? The home button especially. Doesn't fit in with the prospected worldwide launch, as I'm sure they would do away with the physical button for North America. To me the physical button in reminiscent of old smartphones. I'm certainly keeping my Note but if the s3 actually looks like this I won't be getting it as well. I have 3 upgrades to use this year lol but I'm not going to get a phone with a big clicky home button
Edit: This is definitely a photoshop. The volume buttons on the left are not shown from the side profile shot, showing the power and camera which would be on the wrong side.
I will pass not willing to give up on my 5.3 inch screen. Love my note.

Def getting the S3 when it becomes available, love the note just loved my beloved S2 more and miss it. Cant wait for the S3.
The leaked pics are BS.
Qualcomm doesn't have a quad-core chipset available yet.
Unless this runs on their 8960 chipset [that has an integrated LTE chipset] the performance of any S3 released before Q4 2012 would probably be very similar to the Note.
The leaked pictures are just mockups, and it's a good thing too. They wouldn't sell many with a phone that looked like that.
I, for one, won't be changing - I've been through three Android phones in the last year and finally found one that I love enough to keep for some time.
My wife, however, will be able to upgrade in August, and at that time I'm guess it will be curtains for the iPhone 4; I think she'd like the HTC One X but no one touches Samsung's screens right now, so it might be this one, if it's out by then.

If that's true (and they don't need to use Qualcomm) then scratch everything in my previous post.
That phone will blaze, undoubtedly, but I still don't foresee myself going back to a sub-5" screen again.
That first link is definitely a fake.
I'm pretty sure that was one of the concept pictures to the iPhone 5 that was all over YouTube before the 4S came out.

The S2 and the Note are already "valid" iPhone competitors.
The only thing apple has over any current android phone is a smooth OS, but that only lasts until the next major iOS update, at which point you're forced to get a new phone.
IMO, it's another bogus spec of SGS3
Whatever the s3 is I'm getting it.

this time i'm undecided
normally i'm jump right into the next best Samsung device without much of a though, but without knowing what's in the bag this time, i'm not as eager to get it
however if it's really a Quad core and runs on AWS 1700, then i'll sure hit it
the problem is there are no official quad core exyno CPU announced by Samsung
and Tegra 3 or Tegra 4 is a no go, nVidia doesn't like open source, so do not expect any updates for your Tegra devices
and the Qualcomm S4 / S5 quad core doesn't look like to be ready yet for this year, it's been relatively quiet in that front
So I don't know if you all got this, but for some reason I wasn't billed the upgrade fee for my galaxy note since you could only preorder the note on a contract and not without one. If I am able top do this with the s3 I will probably sell the s3 and wait for CEA 2013 to roll around the corner.

I just bought an AT&T Note today from XDA but I'll be really tempted to switch to a SGS3 if it comes with Samsung Quad-Core & LTE. If I'm able to control myself, I'll wait to see if what Note 2 comes with.
So I see some rumors that the Galaxy Note II is due out in October - I've only had my Note for about 9 or 10 months but already starting to covet it. I could use the hairline cracks as an excuse, but really I just want the new features.
The other part of me things that it is a waste of money - in another year or so, the Galaxy Note III or some other phablet will be out, and the Note II price will drop, just like the Note price is about to drop.
Are you going to upgrade to the Note II? What are the reasons?
[Side question - is Samsung shooting themselves in the foot by releasing new phones every 4-6 months? I think it's a little crazy. I wanted a GSIII until I saw the rounded corners and felt the "tiny" screen in my hands.]
No. I'm perfectly content with my note. I'll probably upgrade next year. Maybe something even better will be out.
It just isn't enough of upgrade for me.

I personally will TRY to upgrade. If I can't sell my note chances are I'm not. The photo taking video feature and the little small details that they've implemented are very appealing.

Yeah - the group photo thing really appeals to me as well. I suppose if they find some way to implement some of these small features into our current phones with a Jelly Bean update, I'd be more inclined to wait until next year to see what else comes out.

No, I mean the thing where you take a picture, and it actually takes like 5 pictures and let's you choose the best face of each person in the shot.
I want it for the battery life. the battery life in the current note is an absolute atrocity. but if they still have it charging at only 1 amp there is no way I'll buy it because it'll take an even more pathetic amount of time to charge. My phone is on the charger more than it is off the charger. literally.
I say no as well. The hardware upgrade is minor and any software features we could want will eventually filter into roms built by the XDA devs. I see no reason to leave the Note yet.
I'll wait until next spring or summer for the s4
Ha ha I'm upgrading just cause I'm an asshole and I have three lines available for upgrade in Oct Nov and Feb. Nothing better to do!?
Currently after seeing the specs, quad core with 2gb of ram, i want it.
Like my current phone i want to play with it at the store before buying it.
Hopefully it feels faster.
People say the performance is similar to the Note 10.1 and hopefully a bit faster since it will have Jellybean.
-Once you go NOTE, you'd say 4 inches a Joke

im in for the upgrade. Figure my original note will sell for at least $400 so making the upgrade a money maker (assuming $299 price)

I may only upgrade of I can get the European version with LTE, quad processor and 2gb ram for UK use.
So I've never owned a large tablet before, I had a nexus 7 for a few months but I sold it to pay bills. I have a galaxy s3 and between that my old nexus I know I'm definitely android fan all the way. To get the point I'm thinking of buying a nexus 10 but I'm hearing about a new version coming out late February early March and there is also talks of medium sized galaxy note 8 and a slightly smaller tablet sounds awesome, so my question is should I wait for the new nexus 10? Go buy the current one from walmart, get another nexus 7 or wait for the note 8?
Aloooottt of spelling and grammatical errors I know..
The only new version I could see coming out in the near future would be a gsm sim card version. For those people who want an lte version, not going to happen in a long long time, just get over it.

More powerful? Which one? First of all, why would they if they just released this processor on this device, first tablet with it anyways. Tegra 4 or the octa are not available and they have never revised a nexus device, they are not going to re-release the same tablet with any hardware upgrade, they will only do firmware updates, new hardware will come on the next nexus device. This is an awesome device, they just got to fix some things on the display/gamma department and thermal throttling.

Rumor or not...only time will tell...take a look here. I would hate to see it happen but if memory serves me right the Nexus 7 8GB got discontinued with the 16GB getting sold for the same price. Apples and oranges but could happen. Thumb down if it does.

A bit different , because for storage all they need to do is use a larger sd card inside the same device, CPU/GPU would require a lot more changes to the hardware, and would have a lot of customers pissed like myself that waited a long time for a tablet, and to see them do this and I got mine this Christmas, would not sit well with me and a lot of people, but hey that's just my opinion, really hope they wouldn't screw customers like that, and after I dropped a lot of money to buy a nexus 7 for the wife and a 10 for me, if they go and do that these would make the last Google/nexus devices I'll ever get.

Droid-Life posted a story about this rumored Nexus 10 2. Their thought (and it's all spevulation) is that they might announce it/show it off at MWC next month, officially announce it at I/O and release it in the fall. I wouldn't wait.
All the people reporting it are just regurgitating the original websites story and adding their own twist on it to make it sound like they've got the inside scoop. Fact: None of them know any more than the original story (if that's even true). It's typical bad circle jerking journalism. #1 reason I try to avoid almost all the Android `insider' (I'm looking at you Android Police) websites. It's hard to though when they all publish 9,245 stories a day to garner unwarranted page clicks.
NEXUS 11*
- 11” Super PLS TFT
- 8 Megapixel
- 2 Megapixel
- Octa-Core A15 / A7 (Exynos 5410)
- Micro SD 64 GB (Rumoured)
* Needs to get approvement from Google (Worlds first Octa-Core tablet)

what you all thinking about this?
Edit: this would be the Nexus 11 without the Google brand, and this one's definitely likely to have microSD support.
Samsung Galaxy Tab 11

Want. Especially with a MicroSD
If it is real and has the sd card support I'll upgrade in a heartbeat... Otherwise I'm happy with what I have for a long time
Aww I just bought my nexus 10 2 weeks ago I was hoping it'd be "new" for at least a year lol but I probably wouldn't upgrade since I just got mine also I'd rather have Google team up with another company. It seems that samsungs support for the tablet is very poor.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using xda app-developers app
I doubt it would get approved with a microSD slot. The Nexus line of things are known for not having those these days. I also hope it gets the T658 GPU, or even better a 2nd gen Midgard core. I doubt ill buy an upgrade to this tablet till it has at least those specs to make it worthwhile. The T658 has twice as many shader cores as we do, and twice as many arithmetic pipelines per shader core.
is it gonna be the same resolution as the Nexus 10? please colour calibrate the screen this time Samsung!
Even if it doesn't get released as a Nexus device, it wouldn't stop Samsung from releasing it as their own device.

Like the guy above me said, hit and miss. Some turn out to be true some not, but even if Google were not to approve this tablet, it will come out as Samsung tablet just without the octacore maybe, but it's definitely coming.
I'm so glad I held back from getting the 10, I actually made three attempts to buy one of Google and each time it didn't go through. I'm in Ireland and was using a proxy!
I would like, as someone said, another company to do the next Nexus tablet. HTC would be my first choice then Asus but that probably won't happen.
Anyone think it will be released at Google I/O? I really want a tablet, can't wait much longer!
when is google I/O
Not a chance in the world this will be released at Google IO in a couple weeks.
There has already been talks of the Nexus Nexus 7, so we will see Google confirming final specs and a release date for that. We will probably also see details or a launch of the next Android version as normally happens during Google IO, we will hopefully get details on the next Nexus phone, and we will probably also hear more on Google Glass and probably Google Fiber.

If they are then I will be on the N10 for a while. I really hope Samsung DOESNT get the next Nexus. Their hardware is decent (not great) but they completely ignored this device just like they did the previous Nexus phones.
No dock, no cable using the pogo pins, the cover is overpriced and doesn't do much of anything, useless magnets, etc. It looks like so much could have been supported but Samsung didn't care.
LG showed how it should be done, they got the charger out, MHL, the bumper/case and even the logoless headphones (yeah I know that isnt huge but its more than Samsung has done). And the phone, I had the Galaxy Nexus and my Nexus 4 made that phone look and feel like a turd immediately. Considerably better design and a far more rigid chassis.
Not happening. ^^ Nexus devices are rather a solid proof of concept for Android than some experimental whatever. If this 11" thing appears, I think it will be released by Samsung (without Google Nexus label).
I'm kind of hoping that another company picks up the next Nexus 10 other than Samsung as well. I believe ASUS has done a great job with the Nexus 7 and the Transformer series, HTC could knock it out with front facing BoomSound type speakers on a tablet, or even HP which seems to be falling in love with Android, which shoukd have been the case two years ago. Plus new generation of processors are right around the corner that could make for a great device (Tegra 4, Snapdragon 800, Exynos-55something). Having just sold my Transformer Infinity, I'm excited to see what the next generation of devices will be.
Why us this news? Is it such a shock that the Samsung OctoFaux is getting used in a tablet? Is it such a shocker that Samsung is incorporating an SD card slot with dual cameras?
It gets old hearing the same old stuff rehashed or companies 'innovating' while really just using the newest components at a given time. Shock me Samsung, build an aluminum tablet, build a tablet that feels stronger then a thin piece of plastic which pops and creeks when I hold it or gives in the middle (note 10.1 and gtab2)..... that would be news

same here, it truly is the best tablet out there but I just couldn't go for it after all the trouble people were having not even about the tablet but the service. And it won't be released, it could be revealed there, and if it is I would not expect it to be out until at least November.

The wireless charging dock for the Nexus 4 was only released ~6 months AFTER the release of the Nexus 4. That is not 'how it should be done'.
"How it should be done" is that there is a wide range of peripherals available day 1.
