The editors didn't like
That large screen is too big for some people
The plastic finish doesn't give the phone that premium feel
Overbearing TouchWiz UI
Disappointing speaker
Very big
Screen can very occasionally go blurry
S Pen can struggle with capital letters and spaces
Heavy
Slight delay on home button
Picture could do with more detail
Tacky and slippery plastics
Size can be awkward
Stylus is very easy to lose
Camera is rather disappointing
Hard to use one-handed
Handwriting recognition needs some work
It's expensive
Big and weighty
Expensive
S
Pen is still complicated
Slow camera shutter
Size may be a barrier
Size/format won't be to everyone's taste
Still a few errors with predictive text entry using the stylus
We were expecting higher screen definition
Made mostly from plastic
Aside from the 7-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab
Which could technically make calls
The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is the biggest touchscreen mobile phone in history. It's absolutely massive
And while many techies will love the extra space
It does make it a somewhat niche device. For every person spellbound by its video skills on the 8.04 from Welwyn Garden City
Abstract: Looking at what transpired this year alone, it’s a safe call to proclaim it as the year of the phablets, especially considering we’ve seen a handful of devices pushing the 5-inch mark. In the last couple of months though, we’ve seen the very best in t...

Quick setup, easy to use, iPhone and iPad App, no computer required, nice design, long USB cord, motion and voice detection, and video recording
App has been improved but is still buggy and slow, video limitations, can't export video, and low quality video
The Samsung Galaxy Note II phone isn't for everyone… For starters, if you're someone who makes a lot of voice calls, than holding this up to your face is gong to get tiring very quickly. Instead, this is a device more suited for a user who is primaril...
Abstract: When I reviewed the first Galaxy Note last year and compared with the Galaxy S2, I felt that while it has its merits from the size perspective, its feature set wasn't that enticing for me to switch to a larger device. This time round, the Samsung Galaxy N...
Make no mistake, the Samsung Galaxy Note II is a large device. And that means it's not for everyone, namely those with smaller hands and pockets. But when it comes down to performance, stamina, usability and functionality, the Galaxy Note II leaves much o...

Abstract: After a week with the largest smartphone in the world, I'm practically smitten. The Samsung Galaxy Note 2, a 5.5″ behemoth, isn't the first phone that I've said that I would replace my iPhone with, but it's at the top of the list now. Why? Because bigger ...
Excellent camera and unique software capabilities because of S Pen and 5.5inch screen.
Large size may be too much for many users to overcome.
The Samsung Galaxy Note II's above average size is both a gift and a hindrance. The fact that a phone could be so large to be considered a tablet means that it has added benefits that most handsets lack, but it also has challenges unique to this phone. Th...

Abstract: I posted my top 5 smartphones for the 2012 holiday season at the beginning of the week and as you can see I put the Samsung Galaxy Note II in 2nd place. If the device wasn't so large I would have put it in first place instead of the iPhone, but it just is...
Abstract: Video Review: Samsung's new Galaxy Note 2 smartphone just got bigger, thanks to a 5.5-inch super AMOLED HD display, a 1.6 GHz quad-core processor, 2 GB of RAM and the new Android 4.1 Jelly Bean OS for only $199 with a contract. Matt Mira joins John Bar...

Abstract: The original Samsung Galaxy Note shocked the world with success when most thought it was just a flashing star. It was the first phone to sport a display bigger than 5-inches, 5.3 to be exact. Was it too big, was it a tablet, or was it a phablet? Nobody kn...

Gorgeous 5.5-inch display, Powerful processor, Snappy camera, Improved S Pen, Very long battery life
No LTE yet, Pricey, Size makes it a bit unwieldy
Samsung's Galaxy Note II for T-Mobile offers a gorgeous 5.5-inch display, innovative pen features and killer firepower, but you'll pay more versus other carriers.
