Samsung Galaxy Note 2 vs Samsung Galaxy S3

 

Samsung is responsible for two of the most highly anticipated phones of the year - we\'re talking about the Samsung Galaxy S3 and the Samsung Galaxy Note 2.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 has another big plus point to shout about though - the S Pen. This is a stylus that uses a Wacom digitiser, making it much more advanced than the average capacitive stylus. It can sense varying pressure levels. To break it...

Samsung Galaxy Note 2 review

 

The Note is back, bigger and better

Enormous battery ; Expandable memory ; Amazing screen ; LTE capable ; Blazingly fast

Expensive ; S-Pen is still complicated ; Slow camera shutter ; Size may be a barrier

Still a little too large for some, it's still a great device to help users enter the phablet market at a reduced cost.

Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (16GB)

 

Big-screen browsing and a capable battery make the Note 2 a tempting proposition

Big screen ; Fast browsing ; Long battery life ; Smart features ; Good sound

Heavy ; Slight delay on home button ; Picture could do with more detail

For all this, the Galaxy Note 2’s size will no doubt be the, well, biggest aspect for most people to think about. But you can rest assured that if you do want that big screen, everything else this smartphone offers is more than up to scratch.

Samsung Galaxy Note 2

 

The Galaxy Note 2 is the successor to the, erm, Galaxy Note, which is predictable. What wasn't predictable was how we would feel about this new handset. The Note, you see, is a bit of an enigma. A massive phone, or really small 3G tablet. It sits in a...

Fantastic screen, pen is great, loads and loads of power, great battery life

Handwriting recognition needs some work, it's expensive

When you get the Note 2 out of its box, your first reaction will be to its enormous size. Some will find it absurd, but those who want a big screen with loads of beautiful detail, a much better battery and some cool pen features will "get" it within 10...
