Samsung is really pushing the screen size boundaries here, making the iphone seem more miniscule. Your thoughts?
It will probably come to AT&T 6-8 months later.
Or it's just a bad time to upgrade
im all over this when the pre-order comes up prob end of august
Pure Sex I will get my hands on one for sure
I learned my lesson...im getting the International version from now on. AT&T gets the watered down version as usual.

i own both i717 and n7000, the i717 is far from "a watered down version"
it just doesnt have the huge dev support the international version seems to have, and of course the int version always comes out 3-6 months earlier

I think itll release around the time the iphone 5 comes out. Just to threaten its sales. Samsung and apple are both going at each others necks to gain the number 1 spot

I think that is why they're making it narrower, to decrease your chances of hairline cracks.

5.5 is too big (for me). I really like my current Note, but I did pick up a S3 (kept the Note also).
The S3 reminded me how nice it is to be able to slip a phone in my pocket and forget it is there.
At the end of the day it is a mobile phone (for me) and all of the benefits of the Note (mostly taking down customer's orders without piles of sticky notes laying around) do not out weigh the hassle of a 5.3"-5.5" bulge in my pocket.
That's just my take on it. The Note really is a nice device and they have found a great niche.
I just wont go over 5" again.

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'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!

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.

they are out of line for a 6+ inch phone.......lol
thats monstrous.
im hoping the sgs3 will come in right around 4.8-5 inches. and i will snatch that up if the specs are decent ( def quad ) i hope
I hope not... this will be the GNotes downfall... in some cases it already is (too big). I love the size of mine, heck even my 2.5 year old son can hold it with one hand (kinda looks like he's holding a tablet), but ~7" is just crazy big... that's on the cusp of being ridiculously not-so-good looking.
Nope! Nope! Nope! Hope its fake, either way to big and no im not talking about its like a note and ill get use to it big, I mean it won't fit in my pocket

I don't even think these "tech sites" read anymore. They just blindly recycle each others garbage.
So I went from my ATT Note to BB8130 on VZW and found that had just traveled back in time to a time and place where things just werent easy nor connected.
I begged my friends for loaners and got the Droid X again on VZW and still no signal....but atleast is android...I don't feel too bad.
But the screen size, the crispness of that screen, and the Samsung calendar are features I mess greatly.....and I can't believe I'm saying this but the ATT network is what I miss most!
So now trying to switch either back to the Note or a GS3....
O yeohh AT&T is f****good network I. Have at&t for 10 year not problems.

I'm not too happy with AT&T's network in my area at the moment. The cell towers can't keep up with all the tourism. A few months ago I could easily get 49Mb/sec down, but now I'm lucky if I get 400Kb/sec, or even a data connection at all. Ugh.
Wouldn't trade mine for any other phone out. Will switch this for the note 2!

I think it is not possible to answer the question because every few month
a new generation appears.
If note 2 is released you can also ask: Note 2 or wait for Galaxy Nexus 2,
if Galaxy Nexus 2 is released you can ask: Galaxy Nexus 2 or wait for Galaxy S4 ...
The right time is never found, or buy now or never ;-)
Have to agree. There will always be something new coming out. Get the GSIII. Its an awesome device. You can always sell it if you really want the Note2 when it comes out.

There will always be something a bit better around the corner.
I'd recommend the GS3. Not only is the hardware very good, but because so many people have bought them, there should be plenty of pressure to support the device well, remove any minor residual bugs etc. Enjoy it now.
like people said..it depends on what you prefer. The S3 4.8 screen is perfect for me..fits just nice in my pocket any bigger it wouldnt be that comfortable to carry around when I dont have my bag with me.
I will be certainly getting the Note 2 no matter what<<
The key is you have to know what you like. Would the phone fit your life style. If we all said yes and you bought it because of our vote. You will blame us if you didn't like it afterwards.
If you like to switch phones around, You can always sell and trade.
