While I wait for the phone to arrive, what's everyone experiencing from Sprint 3G and 4G lately? I was with them for a month in February with the original Epic 4G and it was nothing compared to what I got with T-Mobile. (Hence why I came back, lol.) Now a free phone and true unlimited data sounds good though.

Congrats you'll love the phone, it's pretty legit. I like it way better than my Evo. As for the speeds, I guess they're not "as fast" but I never have any issues with them. Works fine for me.
So I have been playing with the phone today and wow. I'm very impressed. I kinda love it, lol.

Because now it will be almost impossible to move to a smaller screen.
It's huge, sharp, bright, has wacom support, high contrast, and completely perfect. There's no going back....
Anyone else feel the same way?
It's gonna be hard to go to the inevitable sgs3. I plan on keeping my note throughout though, as a Wi-Fi tablet/ in car media center
I don't even have mine yet and I agree. I played with it for 15 minutes or so yesterday, and now I can't wait to upgrade from my Infuse. And the size is so perfect. I know that the Note will only be able to be replaced by its successor when Samsung releases it. I hope they continue the series, as I will be a Note user for life if they continue it. Hell, I could even go for a slightly larger screen if they manage to figure out edge to edge displays that will fit in a similar sized package. Samsung has nailed the future of mobile devices with this one. Completely secured my loyalty to them through the Captivate, Infuse, and soon the Note. I can't get over how awesome of a device it is, even though I don't have one to call my own yet.

Not just ICS.
I have dreams of full CM9 w/ the S Pen apps baked right in.
I didn't realize i had missed the AMOLED screen from the cappy until i came back to it with the Note.
My girlfriends atrix is impossible for me to use anymore since the screen is so dark and small. Only thing I'll ever miss is the notification LED

I cant wait for BLN baked into the kernel and CM9.
I've been that way since AUG 2010, was the 1st time I picked up my Dell Streak 5...Welcome to the feeling
I agree with you all 100%. My husband tried to get me to read an email on his iPhone. After using the Note for 2 days exclusively, I had a hard time navigating it, let alone seeing it!

The streak was sub-par compared to this thing. Samsung hit the nail on the head for sure with the Note!!!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA App
I know the feeling of not going back, had my hd2 for two years, I was running cm9 on it and I was worried that I was going to miss ics, but this phone is beautiful and it's so smooth that I can wait patiently for ics, it's a wonderful device!
Your so right the phone rocks.
I gave up a SGT 7" for this and no regret.

haha, I don't have mine quite yet either but I totally agree. first true smartphone i had was Captivate, current phone Infuse and awaiting the Note.
Hands down my favorite phone.
Now I have to figure out my new signature on the XDA App. My Infuse was "Sent from Steve Jobs' iPhone."

This new launcher coming out looks like it'll be awesome on the Note:

Looks nice
apparently its launching 2/29! Ill definitely be giving this a try on my note and possibly my touchpad
I want this!!!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA App
Looks rockin, but appears it may have a big learning curve. Looks like it has a crap ton of interactions. Can't wait to try that.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
that's awesome looking, it has a retarded amount of features and ways to modify the layout, it's gonna be a sick launcher.
This is gonna blow my mind on the Note. Thanks for sharing.
I watched videos of this UI 2 yrs ago before Blackberry bought the company, Tat UI I think. Guess the BB deal fell thru??
Yea i saw this a while ago it looks cool though
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Thanks for the heads up, I'm really looking for a launcher to do separate portrait and landscape modes, I've heard of Sweeter Home 2 or ssLauncher, but really was hoping for a well know launcher to support this, any ideas?
Has anyone seen this thing work as a launcher? The video showed lots of set up stuff. With all the features and animation it might be laggy. I guess we'll see next week.
This is good code, wish it was out now. Will definately purchase.

on the 29th of this month
i bet this will be a huge battery intensive launcher although I do admit it does look pretty cool.
So the website is down now. Maybe to prepare for the launch?
Yeah, website not working for launch day. Oh well. Nothing really new but this launcher sure gives you everything in one package. Wow! It would be nice to take a look at it.
it will not come out until tonight stated on their blog so that might be this afternoon for us!
It's up for sale. $16.80!!!!
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tsf.shell
yeah I dont know if I will be spending that on this... it has to be more resource intensive than the standard TWLauncher. if not I would be surprised.....
Since my experience with my infuse was so horrible and I mean horrible (replaced 5 times) they are allowing me to upgrade my second line early so I figured I'd spend it on the Gnote, my primary line is up next January so I figured the note will hold me over for 11 months. How good is it? I've played with one briefly the other day and really liked it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using Tapatalk
Its great so far , get it. You have 30 days to play with it just in case.
I'd like to think the abundance of positive threads in this forum attest to what a wonderful device it really is. I am absolutely in love with this phone, and haven't felt this way since the first time I played with an iPhone back in 2009.
Best device I've ever owned. No complaints at all

You won't be sorry! I came from an iPhone 4S and I'm not sure the camera is quite as good but its still excellent. And the rest of the phone is far better! I'm in love with the screen and I'm just beginning to get the hang of editing pictures with the S-Pen. It's an awesome phone! I ordered two extra batteries and a wall charger from Amazon to go with it so that I'm never stuck to a wall.
I came from an lg nitro HD and this phone is awesome.I smile every time I pull it out of my pocket. And something really cool that I just noticed is that Swype rocks with the s-pen.

I really like my note alot, perfect size IMO. I have no problem going from my ipad2 to my note but using my note then picking up my Atrix or iphone4 and they look tiny!
Hahaha! Just kidding. Who would do that anyway?? But really, leave your opinion here

I was expecting something unexpected like Apple have always done in the past but now it just seems like they're just playing catch-up with either Android, Windows Phone 7/8, or any other mobile OS.

Oh yeah. I'm all over the iPhone5. I mean I might be if it even had better features than my Amaze, but I can't think of one thing it is better at. Same number of cores, same camera, smaller screen, same amount of ram, one less led flash, smaller screen, My Amaze even has NFC. Soooo no. If I was buying a phone right now, I'd still choose my year old Amaze over iPhone 5, even if they were the same price.

Slightly bigger screen, finally 4G data connectivity, not much to win anyone's attention, even some apple fanboys admitted it was crappy.

OK, as for me, I am not bias... I love the iPhone, and I also love android. I own a Mac computer, with an android phone and tablet. Its what works for me, but with the iPhone 5, Apple is playing catch up. As for me, I am not going to get the iPhone 5, because my S3 by far dominates it in specs, customization, etc.. I just feel like Apple could've done a better job with it.
It looks exactly like an iPhone 4/4S, just taller and 2 toned. I have a friend, who got an S3 less than a week go, and just returned it because the 5 was released. And what was his excuse when I asked him why? "Smoother ui, better build quality, refinement" .. I was like "LOL". Fanboyism to the fullest extent.
But to wrap this up, the iPhone 5 is a good phone, don't get me wrong, but there are already "better" phones out there on consumers hands, so it doesn't wow me. Besides, who wants a locked down OS?

yeah, I'm the same as alot of opinions here, it just didn't do enough compared to the competition out there to impress. The larger (stretched) screen is an improvement, but side by side its the same thing as the 4S.
I think the thing that is going to piss alot of people off is the new connector on the bottom. How much crap is out there for it, car docks, home stereos, alarm clocks etc. that are built for the 4s and below, and now its all garbage. I'm sure they'll come up with come kind of connector to couple it together, but it just won't be the same.
