Conclusion
|
The Samsung Galaxy Note is no ordinary smartphone and isn't shy about the fact it straddles the border between mobiles and tablets. We can see why business customers would like it, but it could also appeal to users who aren't convinced either by existing tablets or by other oversized phones like the Samsung Galaxy S II or the HTC Titan. |
The Samsung Galaxy S3 delivers a first-rate user experience. With its top-notch hardware, this handset never flinches or falters. On top of that, Samsung has loaded the S3 with plenty of innovative new software features—most of which are pretty good—as well as an excellent camera and a powerful battery. The Galaxy S3 is clearly an iconic new Android phone, but for such an exciting handset, it's a shame to see such a conventional design. |

Cons
|
- You either love the big form factor or you hate it - You're going to look silly making phone calls - Stylus can be tricky to use - Holding it in one hand is a strain |
- Design is a bit vanilla, it's nothing new or innovative - Touch-sensitive buttons often end up being pressed accidentally - S-Voice function nothing to write home about |
