Samsung Galaxy Note : Price, Review and Specifications

Samsung Galaxy Note

Samsung has delivered and lived up to its brand name by producing some of the best tablets and cell phones available today. The Samsung Galaxy Note is a compact device that offers a complete package of entertainment as well as networking features. It is powered by a 1.4 GHz dual core processor and can match up to any PC or laptop as far as its screen resolution is concerned. It is integrated with both the attributes of a Smartphone and a tablet. It is available in two models with 16 GB and 32 GB internal memory.

Performance

Smooth is what you will feel while operating from this device. A brilliant browsing experience with internet speeds up to 21 Mbps. This is powered by the 4G LTE feature. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity including direct Wi-Fi connectivity is available. The processor is powered by 1.4 GHz dual core Android technology. This ensures that your system does not lag and slow down. In terms of battery life, Samsung Galaxy Note is way ahead. An average of 14 hours regular use can be made comfortably. Furthermore, you can access the web and browse comfortably for an odd 9 hours. If you change the clock frequency to 50 Hz when not in use, then you can enjoy 24 hours of activity without a single recharge. The stylus adds to the flexibility and ease of use. You can draw, make presentations, play games and do much more with the help of the S-Pen.

Features

One of the best things about this product is its 5.3 inch WXGA screen. Combined with the 1.4 GHz dual core processor this enhances the users’ graphical experience. It offers a clear and bright display. It has a media player which has several codecs to help it support various file formats such as MP4, DivX, XviD, WMV and many others. It offers a 5.1 surround sound experience. Add to that the Android power. It runs on the Android Ginger Bread version. It also includes the GPS feature and supports GLONASS. The GPS feature is highly commendable. The location is highly accurate. Even if it is manually switched on, it compiles the data within a couple of seconds. It has the provision for both front end as well as rear end cameras. Video calling is not an issue. Video recording is of HD quality and it supports HD images as well. It is an apt tool for taking notes, or customizing presentations with its available multimedia features.

Design
The design is robust and is really good for people who prefer wider screens. Powered by the super AMOLED technology it is 5.8 inches long and has a width of 3.3 inches. The thickness of the phone is slightly on the higher side as compared to other similar devices. It is 0.37 inches. The look of the device is smooth with round edges and it adds to its classy appeal. The model is available in a variety of colors including the carbon blue and the ceramic white. The Samsung Galaxy Note is no doubt bulky in appearance, but the display quality compensates for this negative (if at all you think it to be one). The front end camera supports video chatting and has a resolution of 2 mega pixel. The rear end camera is a solid 8 mega pixel tool, which allows you to click detailed pictures and video. It also includes a stylus, known as the S-Pen. With the help of this stylus, taking down notes become much easier. Besides, there are several other applications which are easier to access with the help of the stylus.
Bottomline

It is a bold step taken by Samsung to come out with this product. It cannot be entirely classified as a tablet or a Smartphone. It has features of both. This is a product which will give you a smooth run without any interruptions. This is a good buy for those of you who like to enjoy movies on their phone; but if you are image conscious and size of the phone is an issue, then this is not for you.
