So, as you are all probably aware of by now, this phone gets people's attention. Anywhere I pull it out strangers come up to me and ask me about it. I tell them it's like a cross between a phone and a tablet and then I show it to them in action. I usually show them the split pane email screen and then a screen grab along with some annotations with the spen.
What functions or apps are you using to show the note's capabilities to strangers with short attention spans?
Careful now, u don't wanna have one of those strangers grab it and run.

I build / repair computers so I get a lot of traffic daily and everyone here knows I like to be an early adopter of everything. I don't make it a point to show it off, but if someone see's me using it and ask about it. I'll pitch it like a salesman would. The screen size and vividness usually grabs peoples attention. As far as apps, It's android, the only novelty is the s-pen. I will let people use it that I know are responsible while they are in the shop.

That was actually one of the reasons I refused to get an iphone - the iphone people running around showing off STUPID apps. I thought they looked like tools.
Lightsabers or whatnot.
If someone approaches me about the Note, though I do want to show how great it is. I want it to do well, and I want to kind of steer people away from all the STUPID Note ads.
The biggest oos and ahhs come from:
1) Playing video - best to use a HD one already on your sd card. (youtube is lower quality)
2) The keyboard - I often hand my phone to people to let them type their contact info. They very often say, 'wow.... this keyboard sure is nice'
I use thumb keyboard 4's 5" layout, max landscape height. Very comfortable.
While I talk about the note I casually do:
3) Games - I like to show puzzle quest 2, since it is very dense graphically with statistical numbers. Casually mention that playing it on a small screen is just painful.
4) Google Maps is always impressive, especially if you demo GPS lock.
5) For 'readers - amazon kindle, minimum size font/minimum margins is very impressive. Tons of text, and very readable.
I never show off the stylus to be honest.

Well I showed mine off to a AT&T corporate guy and got a job interview for at&t business sales from it.

Guys, it's been a crappy, amazing, hair pulling experience. The ol' X2 had a shot at being great, but fell greatly short. Thanks to Nitro and Dragonz though, it's been an enjoyable experience. However, I am using an upgrade line from my family's account (screw early termination fees) to upgrade to the S3, and am pre-ordering it tomorrow. I just want to say thanks to everybody for contributing to this forum and phone, and for helping us push along this blur-filled pile. I'll miss you all, but i'm willing to bet more than a couple of you will be joining me in the S3 section. I'll definitely keep stopping back to check on this forum, as I'll still have the X2 to play around with (glorified MP3 player, probably) as I probably couldn't sell it for much (even in good condition). Thanks again guys, it's been a journey!
I might be joining you man...but with Verizon yanking unlimited data from new S3 users and pushing back the release date, I'm almost certain I'm going for the nexus. Congrats!
Sent from my MB870 using Tapatalk 2
Im getting the sgs3 as well. But i won't be able to get it untill august. I have no early upgrade and i will be buying it at full price. So hopefully i will get to keep my unlimited data that way.
Since day one this phone has been garbage. I hate this phone. It has so many issues that i can't even keep it as a dedicated mp3 player cause it has issues in this very simple program that my env touch can do with out a hitch and do it better.
This phone is crap and moto knows its crap cause not even ics can make this phone better.
I bought another phone at full price before and it was a feature phone that cost me around $600 so the sgs3 won't be to bad to stomach. Btw the phone i bought at full price was moto razr v2. And that phone had significant problems as well. So 2 phones littered with problems from same manufacturer, means im done with them never buying a moto phone again don't give a damn now that google owns them.

Heck if I had the funds now I'd offer to buy your X2 from you. Though I have a Bionic now I wouldn't mind having another X2 (long story why I don't now). And of the different forums I'd have to say this one is the best. That's why I keep coming back.
To bad this glorified mp3 player can't even play music correctly lol

Can't say I blame you. Hopefully the devs will continue their work for those of us stuck with the X2!

Hey everyone,
Just a short summary on me first and what gadgets i've owned before..
Every single iPhone, the 2G, 3G, 3GS, 4, 4S, Every single iPad, 1,2,3,
The HTC TItan Windows Phone, also I have the new Lumia 900.
The original first Motoroal Droid, and the Nexus one, the LG G2x, the Samsung galaxy S2, the Motorola RAZR MAXX.
As you can see I love gadgets, I don't have an ounce of fanboy'ism in my blood period.
Android in itself actually upset me, i just got tired of all the BS...that's why I hopped around phones a lot.. i got tired of resetting them.. battery pulling..etc etc...the Sluggishness of the UI.. etc.. The SGS2 was really IMO the best Android phone out of all of them that i've ever used.. i loved it.
Now we are here to the Galaxy note... WOW..JUST WOW.. i'm blown away by this thing.. maybe it's the screen size? or the gorgeous looking screen in general?
The build quality is NOT CHEAP.. for those of you reading this.. i was worried about that looking at videos b/c it LOOKS like cheap plastic.. trust me it's not at all.. coming from the RAZR Mazz which is supposed to have a solid back? that thing was garbage compared to this build quality.. I even love the feel of the clicking on the Power Sleep button.
Software-, I used it for 2 hours out of box, and was pretty turned off.. i was thinking to myself.. oh god here we go.. So i RUSHED to the XDA forums looking for roms.. i asked around nobody really answered or helped me so i figured it out on my own.
I ended up choosing the Team perfection Objection (RC3)..
i'm BLOWN AWAY... it's so smooth and fast... EVERYTHING WORKS.. i love it..
I can honestly say this is definitely going to hold me over until the iPhone 6 gen comes out. And it might take a miracle to pull me away because i have a feeling i'm going to fall in love with the huge screen size..
Camera-, it takes GREAT pictures.. i'm sure you guys already know that.. but i just had to confirm for those still thinking about buying.. coming from an iPhone 4S i don't feel bad about this purchase at all..
All in all.. my only frustration is that i don't have an LTE signal yet where i live... it's frustrating b/c it's literally 10 miles down the road! I could literally travel down the road and it picks up... it's also not where I work... =-( I hope ATT gets it's act together.

Imagine how I feel, I'm coming from my old trusty HD2 running Android... Been holding out for the longest and yes I'm happy I did. When I first purchased the HD2 I was amazed at the size.... Now with the Note, I think I purposely walk around with it in my hand so that everyone could see it. I kind of look forward to hearing comment like "Damn thats a big ass phone! What is it a tablet?". I think thats what get me through the day.... Can't wait till the devs get the official ICS for i717!!!
I really need to root this thing. Had it about a week, switching from Sprint, so we are trying it and ATT out for a bit to see if we want to leave sprint. And I have to say as the phone stands out of the box it's good. But other then the screen it didn't blow me away. But I have a feeling once I start flashing roms its gonna be great.
Not sure i could even entertain the idea of going back to a 4 inch screen iPhone 5 = FAIL

Same here... I was using a Samsung Galaxy S 2 Skyrocket and that's no small device. My wife has the same phone. When I hold it in my hand it feels tiny. At this point, the iPhone is a joke. A fragile device with little ability to customize and a tiny screen. No thanks. I know several people who left Apple because the iPhone is archaic and they don't regret it.
I dont know what it is but for some reason I just REALLY want this phone right now. I have to admit when the gs3 was first announced I thought it was the ugliest thing out there. Lately its been growing on me and I just want it very badly right now. I probably seen every unboxing/review video of it in youtube and I constantly check for updates on what the situation on this phone is. What makes matters worst is that i pre ordered this phone on Verizon so i have to wait longer then everyone else to get it. Im just hoping for a stroke of luck that some how The verizon model gets shipped out before the 9th. Anyways am I the only one like this?
i think the hype for this phone has been just so much a lot of people are feeling the same way...
im actually about to return my HTC Evo 4G LTE (which is an AWESOME phone), for putting in my pre-order for the sgs3
the removable, larger batter and the 2 GBs of RAM really have me pumped, plus a lot of cool extra features, gesture controls, etc make this a super exciting phone...

Exactly! lol and i think what sold me the most on this phone is the fact that the battery is gonna be way better then my galaxy nexus so i dont have to worry about it dying all the time. Also all of the other features are just amazing.

lol noooo you're not the only one. I've watched almost every video on youtube.. over and over and over again and finally someone shared a video of the Canadian version which is the same as the U.S. one which I will be getting on June 21st from tmobile I am too too excited! imma have to pay 600 somethin for it.. grrrr
hahaha same, im stalking this phone like a bieber fan.
Yea you're alone. I'm coming from an Evo 4G, and there have been some decent replacements, like the nexus, galaxy S II, but I've been stalking this phone since it was first annouced back before march. I'm with Sprint, so I'll have mine next week. You can live vicariously through us.
Waiting on a pre-order is worse than simply waiting for release in my opinion, since the money is already gone from my account, but no phone in hand. Reading about how much the international people are enjoying theirs already makes it even harder.
You are not alone. I am also very excited for the S3!!! Then again I have an X2 so really any phone is looking good to me right about now lol!
I'm pretty blown away by the specs of the S3 and if I don't have to pay full price for it, I'll probably get it. Does anyone know if I would still have to pay full retail price for the S3 if I upgrade my contract before the 28th and lock in another 2 years unlimited data?? On Verizion, obviously...
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda app-developers app
I am glad I am not the only one who feels this way. I think Samsung should start doing their press release events the day before release because making us wait this long is simply unfair. I am secretly hoping that my carrier will call me today and say 'we got a stack of phones in early, would you like to pick yours up early?' LOL. Seriously, I know once I have the phone a while the novelty will wear off a bit but I want it now. And its not like my SGS2 is not a good enough phone or won't hold me over for another year. Do we need help or are just simply victims of marketing?? haha
And now it looks like the Canadian release date has been increased another week to the 27th.
I can't wait either cuz I'm not rooting this evolte since its temp so I want my permanent gs3 yeah buddy.
I thought I was the only one... I thought this was the ugliest phone, but it some how has grown on me, a lot, like I haven't been this bad since the first iPhone came out (everyone was going crazy about it)... and the fact that I haven't seen any U.S variants is driving me nuts...
Lol same here, I almost bought the international version a few days ago to use on AT&T. *Patient running on low*

Currently waiting for my S3 from Verizon also and going crazy but over the last couple days it seems that I'm phasing it out more and more. I was going crazy at first and now I'm just like whatever when it comes it comes especially with no solid release date, I've heard so many 6/28, 7/9, 7/10 all I know is that its pre ordered and I'll be in the first batch of shipments whenever it happens.

Just a phone dude. And like all android phones that get rooted, you never find it perfect because you keep flashing and flashing until some other phone comes out and you feel the need tio get rid of the one you have.
I'm on here like 100+ times a day among every other site that I can find info. I even went and did a recon on a T-Mobile store to find the best tactical advantage for me to get my phone first. Crazy!

hey all,
Its actually a sad day for me. My rezound finally totally kicked the bucket and i no long have a deving device. So after some thought, i desided that I will no longer be doing deveolopment for the Rezound. Its been a fun ride while it lasted, but with family, work, and other things going on, my time has been spread very thin. I hope you all continue to enjoy the rezzy and i hope ill run into some of the rezound community on another part of the forums.
If anyone is wondering, I went with the LG G2 and if i ever find some time again to dev, it will be for that device
Thanks everyone for your support, and contributions that made developing the rezound so much fun. Also thanks to all the other dev that help me get started with ROM development
It's sad to see you go. I loved your ROMs very much and I hope you provide your awesome skills to the G2 community. You did very well here and you deserve to rest; Many thanks for everything!

After 2 years I retired my Rezound and purchased a Galaxy S4. I was also able to keep my unlimited data which the possible loss of made me keep the Rezound longer than I wanted to. I started to wait for the Galaxy S5 but I got such a good deal on the S4, which was free at BB after 50.00 gift card I took advantage. The few upgrades in the S5 were not worth spending a couple hundred dollars more.

I want to thank everyone for thier hard work, you helped me take steps into the world of Custom Roms. Ive since then Moded a Razor Maxx, a Galaxy S3 and my Transformer TF700T. My wife and I get to trade in for the new Galaxy S5 tomorrow. So with a sad heart I say goodbye and good luck my friends.

hey all,
Its actually a sad day for me. My rezound finally totally kicked the bucket and i no long have a deving device. So after some thought, i desided that I will no longer be doing deveolopment for the Rezound. Its been a fun ride while it lasted, but with family, work, and other things going on, my time has been spread very thin. I hope you all continue to enjoy the rezzy and i hope ill run into some of the rezound community on another part of the forums.
If anyone is wondering, I went with the LG G2 and if i ever find some time again to dev, it will be for that device
Thanks everyone for your support, and contributions that made developing the rezound so much fun. Also thanks to all the other dev that help me get started with ROM development

How do you like the G2? I love the front with the beautiful screen and tiny bezels...just wasn't sure how I felt about the buttons on the back...

Every phone should have buttons on the back... Why manufacturers didn't implement this before is beyond me, once you have it a while you will see how natural it feels to have them there. Plus with knock on/off you only use volume buttons, I rarely ever even touch the power button.

Hey, its takes a little getting use to, but overall i love it. I notice for the most part i dont use the buttons on the back. It has the knock on and knock off feature which is implemented really nice. so 95% if the time i use that. The only time i really use the buttons, is when i need to adjust the volumes. Other then that, the phone has been rock solid, fast, great battery life. My only complaint is the speakers are not the best and not super loud, the rezzy smokes it any day, but overall, the best phone ive had in a long time, including the rezzy.

After 2 years I retired my Rezound and purchased a Galaxy S4. I was also able to keep my unlimited data which the possible loss of made me keep the Rezound longer than I wanted to. I started to wait for the Galaxy S5 but I got such a good deal on the S4, which was free at BB after 50.00 gift card I took advantage. The few upgrades in the S5 were not worth spending a couple hundred dollars more.

You know, i was real disappointed when the finally released the specs on the s5. Made some small improvement, but not enough to justify the wait or the extra money. Personally I tell people to go with the s4 unless the s5 has a feature that the must have.
Sold my last Rezound yesterday... was a mixed bag of feelings, I loved working with it, everything I learned over the years, and the community, yet I really love my new devices.

What device did you get again? Not sure what I'll be doing. We may jump ship. I can't afford VZW anymore. We have 4 lines on the old 1400 minute plan each of us with $30 data and we're up to nearly $300/month. If we switch to Share Everything, it would be even more. But if we don't, trying to decide between the G2 and the One Max. Why are we such slaves to technology?

My personal phone is a Nexus 4 on Aio Wireless, works great and I save a ton of money every month. If I had to get a phone today it would be the Moto G, my son has one and the battery life is ridiculous, 7 hours screen on time for web browsing and basic use and it out performs the Rezound in all aspects except camera.

Looks like the Moto G is 3G only. I'm considering the Nexus 5 if we go to T-Mobile. Also considering AIO as well. If we can't finance our phones with T-Mobile, then there no reason not to go with an MVNO, right?
