How long will the note last - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

My question is how long will the galaxy note last like years wise since its a dual core s3 and quad cores are comming out will the dual core phones be diminished like the single core ones have been
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA

There is Still no quad core that's compatible with AT&T's lte.
The North American version of the htc one x has a dual core for that very reason.
No device in this market can "last" years if you wanna be on the bleeding edge. And as the price drops for the note others who wouldn't spend 300 bones on a brand new device will be attracted to this beastly screen imo

Do you think the note will actually become like cheap I bought mine for 320 with tax and I'm wondering like the infuse started at 200 and when down to pretty much free will that eventually happen to the note

I run an Infuse site on Facebook and it is about to top 4000 likes. When I upgraded to the Note a couple of months ago, it was at around 3700. It's a single core beast that still gets mad love. I'm not worried about this dual core beast falling off.

If you are asking " How long will it lead the pack? " The answer is until something better comes along that has better specs and the same or bigger screen size... considering the pace of technology it wont be long.
IF you are asking " How long will the Note last Physically? " .. the answer is YEARS .... that is IF you have an i717. There are less moving parts on the i717 than the international Note .. it has that main button that is used alot. " Anything that moves .... eventually dies " . The parts that will wear are the head phone Jack, power button, volume rocker, and the USB port.
Hope this helps

I hope Samsung will use the Exynos chip, or at least the 2.0 ghz dual core one... if they swap out for qualcomm again... i'll be mad.
any ETA on the Note 2? By September hopefully?

Who's to say there will be a note two? Has there been any confirmation or rumors?

And my opinion on this topic is that the note will last however long you want it too. Basically however long you think you can keep using it before you decide you want or have to upgrade to the new phones.

The infuse had to be pried from my cold dead hands. Its still right here in the cabinet next to me with Zeus 5.2 rockin on it. I can turn it on right now and it's still sitting at 75% charge. I haven't plugged it in or used it in 6 weeks. My journey from the infuse to the Note went something like this.
SGS2: Cool.. dual core... smaller screen.. No way I go smaller screen. PASS
HTC Inspire: HTC Phone? Sense? LOL.. PASS
HTC Vivid: See above
SGS2 Skyrocket: Neat. Interesting. Not much better than my hyper modded infuse. Note coming out soon.. PASS

Im not interested in quadcore phones. I just want a phone that I can get 6+ hours of screen time.

If youre the type of person who needs the latest and greatest, then I would say no dont get it. However, if the note fits your needs, by all means...pick one up. I dont regret it at all. Got it on launch day instead of saving my upgrade for the sgs3. If you care about quadrant scores and all of the braggin rights, wait for the sgs3 or just get the international Note w the 1.4 exynos dual core processor.

Quad core phones are overrated currently and not ready for Prime time, used the right way at least. Its all marketing hype & a battery killer. Look at the HTC ONE X. The new S4 processor is just as fast as the Tegra 3 model if not faster in some situations. The Tegra 3 HTC one X will be outdated before any application can take advantage of the quad core in the phone.
As far as the dual core vs quad core One X situation Snapdragon S4 IS the faster SoC ... Anandtech already posted benchmark results showing proof ... Tegra outperforms it only in multi threaded tests, which are a rare in a smartphone ...

I've been using smartphones for years and the Note is the first one that has stopped me from scouring rumor posts every day looking for my next phone. Just saying. This one will be relevant for awhile, particularly if mfrs are slow to come up with a successor. Can anyone with a Note imagine going back to a device with lower screen resolution...

Qualcomm and games (next generation chip)

So while we got the latest duel core from Qualcomm, and snapdragon 1.2Ghz is looks like they working in a new one already
See here : http://androidandme.com/2011/08/new...ming-consoles-will-be-replaced-by-snapdragon/
Man I can't wait to see some games taking the full advantage of the duel cores phones yet, but and hopefully by year ends we have more nice games, i think tech is moving really fast on smartphones now, I hope batteries can't keep up with these processors as well, what you guys think?

I believe that there's already better, especially the new Samsung galaxy 2 s. Apperrntly its CPU and gpu blow qualcomm. But ours is still a strong chip. I know nvidia is working on a better tegra chip which will feature a quad core CPU and a better gpu. I can't wait for that one

Basically positive this phone is substantially faster then a tegra2. This and exynos are close as hell. Comes down to the apps/benches themselves.
And NVIDIAs quad core chip, kal el or something, is being binned as a tablet part. Stop trolling.

That would be false. Straight from Nvidia:
“Project Kal-El-powered tablets are coming this Fall, and phones around the CES 2012 timeframe.”
Unless they've changed something, we should see phones with quad-core chips not only from Nvidia, but other manufacturers as well in 2012. Supposedly the new Nexus will have a quad core chip though, so we'll see what actually happens with that at the end of this year. From what the different news articles earlier this year have said, the first quad-core tablet should be hitting the shelves sometime this month.

Anyway, even the next-generation cpu-gpu mobile combos won't top consoles. Plus no one will be taking advantage of them for a long time. Look at all the crap android games out, very few push limits on any high end phone.
Really? So I'm going to give up playing my games on my 55" LED in full 1080p & 5.1 DD for a 4.3" screen? Yeah, I see that happening.....

What ever happened to that game that qualcomm was bragging about that takes full advantage of its dual core. Some rpg game. That was one reason i wanted qualcomm and also prior to releasing evo 3d the qualcomm spec surpassed all the others on paper Although not really so true now.

SGS3 officially revealed. Your thoughts?

I think the new processor will be amazing but I can't say that I'm liking the rounded edges. This thing is borderline pebble-shaped.
It will be interesting to see where they take the design to with the Note 2, to say the least

Does this mean no 1080p/1200p for the Note 2?

sent from my phone/tablet thingy
I dont like the rounded edges either. The only thing i like about the phone is the new processor. And they finally add the light notification, which is good. Besides those two things, Im not impressed. Everything else is just software update, which the note will receive sooner or later. I will stick with the note for a while.
My curiosity is how long it'll take for the Dev's to pull the good parts out of the GSIII's ROM and port them to the Note...
I like the bigger screen, but wouldn't trade my note for it.
Dislike the round edges
Like the bigger battery
Like the gorilla glass 2
Dislike that the ram didn't change
Dislike that the screen didn't change much other then the size
Like the new smart stay
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Yeah, Im definitely curious about how SMART it's going to be, but like many have said before - the SGS3 is mostly software, which will eventually come to the note at some point. And if S-pen functionality can be kept too, then the Note with SGS3 SW will be all we'll need tilll the note 2 comes out.
I had been eagerly anticipating a device that would be worth switching to from the note because (lets be honest) who doesn't love a new phone? But I can honestly say that this one wont do it for me. I guess if there was a way to have quad core and lte living together then I might consider it but I just love the note so much. I know it sounds crazy but I just don't see them coming out with anything (other than maybe the note 2) that would be worth switching to from my current note. This is sad because I love getting new phones so I guess it bittersweet for me.
Love the note. If you're not on seraphim it might be time take a look in the mirror and make sure you get your priorities straightened out...lol

What about the rumor that the USA version won't get a quad core processor?
4.8" is close, but I don't think I could go back to a less than 5" screen.
i may just buy the international version of the s3 and wait for the Note 2 for my next LTE upgrade.

i think the US version of the S3 won't have a exynos processor......don't think its compatible with LTE modems........they may end up using the snapdragon 4core processor instead due the LTE compatibility
I agree, this phone isn't a game changer by any stretch of the imagination. It's basically the HTC one with a removable battery and MicroSD port. It is pretty, but so is my note. The quad core isn't that impressive anymore because of this:
http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/03/tsmc-ramps-28nm-arm-cortex-a9-chip-to-3-1ghz/
imagine a phone that can process that freaking fast! We'll see where the processor wars go. The note keeps me happy, I can wait.
Also if you want a little more in depth look, here's android centrals' post on the S3. Though I like AC in general, I think they were really humping samsung's leg when they wrote it.

You clearly don't understand sarcasm. A 16x optical zoom in a .5cm thick package is clearly impossible. If it were possible, the company responsible would have already showcased it at one of the popular electronics conventions, as an innovation like that would be ground breaking and would not be kept quiet for a phone release.
Besides the ludicrous camera claim, do you think corning would release a new glass with a phone before showing it off at a convention? No. Also, would Samsung release a phone with a 1.9 ghz quad core exynos without exposing the processor first at a convention? No. Along the same lines, we would have heard something about a tegra 4 already if it was going to be put in a phone.The solar powered phone thing has also been tried before, and it was a flop, and that was on a phone much less powerful than you described. So unless there's a new super efficient solar technology as well that they're choosing to let Samsung reveal with the Note 2, that claim is also BS.
Sorry, but whoever is telling you this stuff is clearly taking advantage of how gullible you are.

except for the rounded corners, the white looks EXACTLY the same on the front.
LTE? Nice talking with you guys, as in the SGH-I717R is probably going bye-bye. Good thing the accessories are interchangeable with the other GT-N7000.
Yep , After reading about it and how soon the ATT version will be here... will be grabbing it once it hits my store.

I'll keep what Ive got for now ...
I can only afford to screw up 1 device at a time ....LOL
I have big doubts about this being a us version.. The iphonish button was never adopted by att on previous device unless I'm mistaken I don't see why this would change now

$50 bucks says the att version is a near dead-ringer for international version. I'll bet it has the home button, quad exynos, everything. Samsung has enough muscle to dictate more of its hardware to us carriers. I'll bet there is little variation in note 2 specs worldwide.
Not to mention those leaked Verizon photos of the note 2,which I believe to be legit.
US note 2 will have a home button just like the gs3.

Running this exynos processor in my note 10.1 3g variant and the battery life is phenominal. On h+ all day and I'm getting 10h screen on with around 25h unplugged before hitting 18ish %.
5.5 inch note 2 is half the screen size of the note 10.1. 3300MaH in note 2 battery is just under half the size of the 7000maH in the note 10.1. Given the scaling, I wouldn't be surprised to see comparable battery life.
The processor, though running 200mhz faster, won't make much difference because it isn't running full throttle all the time. The only question is what toll will LTE take on the battery life in LTE areas. Samsung obviously came up with some new LTE tricks to get it to work with the quad exynos in the first place - I wouldn't doubt if improved efficiency is a part of those new tricks.
Samsung made a statement awhile back that better battery life was a focus in 2012 - so far they've lived up to it and I believe the note 2 battery life will be quite good. This processor is extremely efficient, as is the other hardware.
The note 2 is gonna be a well-rounded performer from what I've seen.
I've read several places that the note 2 variants with LTE are getting a 3300MaH battery instead of 3100. We'll see when it's released. Based on the scaling mentioned above, 3300 makes more sense.

with the release of the S3 to all big carriers I would bet that the note2 will be as well.

SAMSUNG's Flagship devices are s3 and Note 2. So yes most definitely.

Note 2 benchmarks

Im thinking about taking my dna back for the note 2. Went by the verizon store and was running some bench marks to get a feel for it. It was scoring 14000 in anutu, and the 3d test was running 35fps tops, could it just be that phone? My old s3 scores 11400.... It just seemed extremely weird that the mali 400 was scoring that damn low. Now i didnt look much into what the software version was but can anyone comment on 3d performance? Wildblood etc?

Dude, don't worry about synthetic benchmarks. The Note 2 simply feels faster than the DNA.
I had the DNA for a week and exchanged it for a Note 2 and haven't looked back since. I just couldn't stand the heavy scrolling and slow animations when scrolling home screens on the DNA.
Do it, you won't be disappointed.

Ended up getting one and the damn rep did the OTA locking down the bootloader. But even on stock its much smoother and battery life cant even compare.

Why don't you go and exchange it for another one and don't let them update your phone

Since i swapped the dna for the note within 14 days they said i cant exchange it again. So hoping they get this bootloader unlocked soon

Aww that sux, but good job on getting the phone! It's just simply a better phone imo. The only thing the DNA had going for it was the screen and that's basically it.

I messed with an HTC Rezound for some time but I couldn't stand it. Htc devices look nice but honestly I don't like the feel of them or the functionality of them. I hate HTC sense with a passion. It's so bloated and laggy yet so basic.

Touchwiz is more bloated than Sense. By about 1gb, in fact.

Not sure why you're using size as the determiner but I find tw to be much more functional than sense.

I liked the dna, it was a decent phone but for how i use my phone it just wasnt working out and the note 2 was the only other quad core option. Im happy with it so far. I just wish that stupid arse rep hadnt done the ota, love me some cm10.1

I have both phones right now and the DNA is most likely getting sold! I did buy the Note 2 first though but I wanted to see what all the fuss was about with the DNA and while it is a very nice phone it is just not as smooth as the Note 2 is... I have the DNA on a stock kernel because the only kernel that is available that overclocks the DNA is waaay unstable but they did just drop a VERY nice rom for it over there (ViperDNA) which is one of the most customizable roms I have ever used on a phone. The DNA really has nothing on the Note 2! Yes, the screen is beautiful!! But I think that is why it lags like it does...? (pushing all those pixels) As far as Touchwiz over Sense... I like them both but Samsung has just got them beat right now (everyone for that matter)! If Samsung made phones that were not ALL plastic that would be my wet dream. If you don't want a Note 2 cause it's too large then get a DNA but if you can handle the BEAST then you have one of the best phones, if not the best, that you can get!
And having owned both phones the whole benchmark thing means NOTHING! It's real world use and that's where the Note 2 will win every time!
As far as the difference between any version of sense or touchwiz, I'll take tw any day. Love me some tw. I just wish theyd make a tw rom thats compatible with theme chooser.
