It's very fast, the battery is great, storage is no problem and the screen shines.

I think the battery sucks...but I am on it all the time and used to a huge extended evo battery. I may want one for the note as well. I actually like thicker phones they are much easier to hold the thicker they are. One thing iphones originally got right

Every review I've read, and my own personal experience, argues the battery is one of the reasons to get the phone.

In addition, if you register your phone through Samsung, they're sending 50% accessories coupon. You can buy a 2nd battery for $25 (regular price is $50).

I really like the S3 but am seriously thinking about going with the Note 2. We're going to BYOD at work and I think this will be my best option.

A friend of mine has the note, and while yea, its cool, its novel, etc. Its the size of a ****ing house. I could never use it from a business perspective. It looks like he has an ipad glued to the side of his head

Is he the guy from the burger King commercials with the tiny hands?

I dont know why ppl are worried about it from the standpoint of how big it looks to your ear. Who cares? If you are using a home home or cordless phone they are all still bigger than the note and nobody says that is too big

Most of my phone use to make calls is in my truck with Blue tooth. My Phone is for text emails and internet.

Just got mine, all I can say is WOW. This thing made me hard when I removed it from the box. Fits fine in my pocket, dont even notice a difference between it and my galaxy nexus. I highly recommend.

Can anybody tell me how to do split screen? I want to be able to simultaneously surf the web and have half the screen be the internet and other half be youtube, skype or something. Im told it can do this but I have no idea.

When you have the video playing you should see a square in the upper right corner, just tap it.

I have been looking. Not sure I want to do it, but I'm kinds digging this phone. For those of you that own the phone, would you be willing to tell what you paid? What carrier you're on?

I see on Amazon wireless that the price for one of these phones drops significantly from day to day. Today for Sprint people, it's 199$. Today for new Sprint customers, it's 99$. I've seen it as low 89$. The Verizon version is 149$ today.

I'm not sure I want to deal with a phone contract. So I'm hedging. Help me out.

Sprint.

I paid $300 a little over a month ago.

My brother said that he just saw it at Best Buy for $200.
