the.s3 is a nice phone. but the bottom bezel/lip is uneven and throws off its balance

S3 just perfect

The note front on looks more like the s2 in shape but bigger. But the s3 is new design, new shape and much nicer to look at and feel
If you dont like the Thanks button, click it to make it dissappear

I agree, to be honest the S2 felt a little square while holding it, the first thing I said when I held the S3 was OMG you can't feel the corner!!! this is holding the phone with one hand and having the bottom right corner rest on your palm (right hand). The note 2 is just the note 1 with the S3 curves or you can say that the note2 is the iphone5 of the OG note... (didn't wanted to mention the i word but that's how it looks to me).

In real life I prefer the S3 but look at the photos and it looks like some cheap Chinese phone.
I mean I've just never seen a phone where photos just do it so little justice.

The shape of the S3 is great, but they should have cut the bottom bezel much smaller and centered the button, in that regard the Note looks much better.

I think since this is the S3 forum, you'll probably find most people prefer the S3... Why does this thread even exist? It's just flame bait...

That's like asking: What design do you prefer? This fork, or the bigger, bulkier variant of this fork?

Why don't organize Vote mate?
Much more interesting and informative

Gs3. The note II is too big IMO. At least for me it is. I cant see going any bigger than 4.7-4.8. If I need something bigger I have my Nexus 7 or something bigger? my Transformer Infinity.. hahah

thread closed. this is likely to cause flame. further people get the phone they prefer and as xda members then can post in the appropriate forum.

New pyramid photos leaked (Desire HD 2 ? )

A couple of new pcitures have been leaked showing the htc pyramid aka the desire hd 2 , looks pretty nice i was pretty much sold until i saw it has 770 mb of ram , i like that the camera no longer sticks out ( less sctraches) and it looks thinner than the desire hd and i also think they dropped the unibody case kinda sad but at least the battery cover will be beasy to remove

indeed qHD screen would nice and also a BIGGER battery!
I hope the qHD screen will get higher refresh rate than 60hz... otherwise frame limiter will be also set to 60fps, and those shiny new dualcore will be really limited...
Uuh how I miss a simple way of opening the back of my DHD, the picture from this one here really give me new hope.

The hardware specs are WOW. But the design to me looks a bit feminine like that of samsung. What i mean is....the design is too much of curves on the phone. The top and bottom are also curved and not flat. I like the look of DHD which is VERY masculine hehe

I feel opposite, I much prefer DHD way of keeping minimum area of weak parts of the body making the overall feeling sturdy and cracklingless
Well, DHD by default is not that with it's weak mini covers, but they can be worked out.

WOW really a 5.3 inch screen with Super AMOLED resolution of 1280x800!!! Wonder if it will come to Sprint (hope so)

I liked the idea of the streak but my wife made fun of it saying it looked like you had a book on your ear.
I would still like a 5" phone...but with LTE and HSPA this is prolly a Verizon device, right guys?

Imagine though. You just use it with a bluetooth headset. Its big enough to really browse the web and do more data oriented things.
Pair it with a fold up keyboard and think of all you could do. It can be both the tablet and the phone. Get the best of everything to fit in your pocket.
I wouldn't want a 10" tablet anyway because its to big to really use with one hand.
Hope you carry around solar panels to power that thing..

Why would anyone prefer a 4" over 5" phone? That just views my mind... Think outside the box. A 5" phone wouldn't have to be any bigger than the epic. There a ton of wasted space on the epic fire the screen size.

The new Samsung Galaxy S II will have the 4.52 so we are getting closer to the 5" mark. Just hate that we don't get updates really Samsung where is Gingerbread??

Samsung Galaxy Note size comparison with HTC Vivid and GSII Skyrocket

I was testing out the Galaxy Note at CES 2012 yesterday and have to say the white Galaxy Note is great looking. I put the GSII SR next to his big brother and brought along the HTC Vivid as well.
The AT&T branded Note did seem a bit laggy, not to bad but I noticed a bit compared to my GSII SR.

Nice someone who was or is there lol. Anyway hopefully the lag is fixed soon, like the international note and did you test the spen calibration?
The international Note "lags" compared to the international GS2 too. Mo' pixels, plain and simple.
LOL, yeah on the road back home. Actually the pen seemed calibrated. Samsung removed the original stylus and they had the pen that will be a assessory which is like a regular pen. It was more comfortable to use.
Also once you were in the application there is no lag using the application, again this could be fixed or not, but its nothing that would make me stop from buying the Note.
Samsung really was pushing the GNote, as it was advertised everywhere.
By the way, there was a lot of attendees with the international Galaxy Note. I saw the blue one and liked the back color blue, but something about the white one that is just calling my name. The white one does look bigger because of the color compared to the black one.

They removed the S-Pen phone dock?
Yeah, the lag is really due to the 3X pixels it has to process. So just have to accept it when compared to the S2. Hopefully ICS will help it out.

The stylus dock is there, Samsung didn't put the pen stylus because at CES 2012 show, most likely they would disappear. Even though in the lobby Samsung had setup a charge station with some Galaxy Note phones to try, and out of all of them, only one had the pen stylus.
Here is picture of the white Note which is looking nice.

Close inspection looks like very poorly made, dodgy stitching, the plastic of the phone holder looks like it is of the hard/brittle type.....looks lovely, but suspect quality imho

Looking on the pics from link - ordinary plastic ruins all effect, compared to... other models on photo above.
It looks like someone got an ancient-style made golden necklace with the can opened in the centre of it
My honest opinion is that it does look pretty cool.
Even though i wouldnt have it myself.
But i dunno. Just feels like its more the kinda thing you see for iphone for than s3 lol.
But any way thats only my opinion mate

I wouldn't know how it fits on S3 because originally it's for iPhone.
But indeed it's a nice case.

I wish they released the all gold like the note 4 which wasn't released in America either ): had to go with a black note 4 and black edge
Not a gold phone fan but just the trim is hot. I like it.

That trim, that trim! Sexy as heck! I would look for a transparent case just to show off.
The fact that this exists is almost as amazing as the fact that a new species of snail was named after Joe Strummer!

At first I thought I'd rather see the Gold Note Edge version called the Joe Strummer model than naming a new snail species named after him. I have too much respect for the snail!

Then again, "If you havn't got something serious to say then piss off!"
Love the quote! Ok. I'm fine with naming the snail after him.
I guess my only complaint would be that the home button isn't gold as well....
ooooooooooooooooooh.... I want!!!!!!!!!!
I would buy this even though I just bought my $900 Edge. And I'd rock it with no case!
Gold is a bit too obvious...
The thing that makes the edge distinctive is its sleek look: functional and attractive in an unusual but still understated manner. In my subjective opinion, the gold trim doesnt quite fit that ethos - it kind of screams "look at me".
Cool but not my taste.
Id love a solid crome or brush aluminum trim tho.

What are people's thoughts on removing the black/white paint on the metal sides so that that the whole trim is silver/brushed aluminium?
What would be the best way to do it? Rubbing lightly with a scourer while holding a vacuum nozzle nearby to make sure fine particles don't get into the phone?
Some sort of solvent?
