That pleather back does the trick, I'm sure it will feel better than the el cheapo plastic on the Galaxies and the old Notes. I think I might have found my next phone. Unless the LG G2 launches here first that is.

I thought i was the only one that liked the LG G2. I own the Note II but i wouldn't mind upgrading to the G2.

given the choice, which version would be better? the 3g or the lte one? i do not much care for super fast internets, because hsdpa/hspa/almost 4g is good enough for me. i'm more interested in the performance of the phone and also power saving.

The octa core is a bit of a fluff, like someone put it in another thread.

Definitely go for the LTE version, the 2.3 Ghz quad core is more than enough to handle things, and might even outperform the octa core. :eek:

This time around I am sure the LTE version will receive just as much, if not more, support from the development community. I like me some AOSP on my devices. Will fully check out the Samsung features, of course. :p

GSMArena has got the rumored specs up : http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note_iii-5665.php

I really really hope it does have a FM radio!

Just drooling over the description! It really is going to be PREFECT! OMW OMW OMW!

And the Gear watch seems amazing! I'ma definitely looking to get this to pair it up with my Note 3! The possibilities for added functionality is basically endless, and this space is only just opening up now.

And the new 10.1 tablet is, hands down, the best tablet there is (going to be) right now.

Damn near perfect for me, I see a few fellow S2 users in this thread.

I hated the pebble design, the Note 3 takes design inspiration from the S2 and I cant be happier :love:

Now to move onto the accessories, the Note 3 showcased itself on the Spigen website early on and I cant think of a better accessory maker presently, I still have their screen protector intact after 2 years of abuse and its as perfect as the day I installed it :D

I hope they make this :

You are 100% correct!

Never thought of it, but the Note 3 does look exactly like an oversized S2 - and maybe the reason why I liked it immediately!

Give this man a Bells!! :D

I think the reason you guys like the looks of the S2 and Note 3 is because you are secretly in love with the iPhoney. :D

I think most S2 owners are gonna get this (I certainly am) :D Mainly because our contracts are upgrading Oct, Nov and it takes something special to move away from the S2...

I agree, the S2 rocks and will continue to do so for a long while yet but the Note 3 is the first phone to give me the same warm and fuzzy feeling I had 2 years ago, had it not been the case I would still stick with my S2 upgrade or not.

Never thought I would see Kingrob give up his S2 also :D

Yes, and a lot of the S2 buyers (like myself) are now ready for an upgrade after two years, so the Note 3 came at exactly the right time. Now I am just wonder when it will be available. :)
