Galaxy Note is over 5"!! That's HUGE!! From iPhone 3 to 4S would be a decent upgrade or if you keen on Android take the SGS2. Still the most accomplished of the droid handsets...
Agree with all of the above and that Note really is crazy big. I was at Vodaworld yesterday and was watching someone using a Note on a call... That thing was nearly as big as her head.
Note, hands down. Its Android with huge screen
I am used to the size and it really doesn't look so big anymore!!!
Love it
4S.
Both are very good phones, though Apple has the more established App Market.
Even to this day, I struggle to find app on Android, that rival the quality of those on the App Store.
Sometimes I wish I traded my Transformer in for an iPad..
Androids AP market is very rich. Apple has to many workarounds, struggles to play different video formats, and the SA Apple market sucks
Galaxy note is way better, faster and slicker
I'm still trying to find an Android app that's as well developed as PenUltimate on iPad.
