The Samsung Galaxy Note II is the successor to the original Galaxy Note that started the trend of having a super large phablet. The Note II is even better, bigger, faster, sleeker and even more beautiful. Starting with the screen, it has a gigantic 5.5 Inch Super AMOLED capacitive touch screen with a resolution of 720 x 1280. Additionally, it also uses Corning Glass 2 in order to protect it from scratches. For such a huge phone, It is pretty sleek at just 9.4 mm and even with that sleekness, it manages to hold an S Pen Stylus in its body that really comes in handy.
The Note II comes with Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean(Upgradable to Android 4.2.1) along with a Samsung TouchWiz overlay bringing a plethora of new features to the already great Android OS like multiwindow, S Pen functionalities, pop up play, Smart Stay and tonnes more.
They’ve incorporated the same great 8 MP camera in the Note II that we have come to love in the S III. It is one of the best mobile shooter cameras on the market right now. There is also a 1.9 MP camera on the front.
Running all this stuff requires some serious power and for that, Samsung has used a 1.6 GHz Cortex-A9 Quad-Core Exynos 4 Processor that is blazing fast while the 2 GB of RAM handles anything you throw at it without any display of lagginess. There is also a big 3100 mAh battery in order to keep your phone running for a long time. Statistically, the Note II has a standby time of 980 hours and a talk time of 35 hours on 2G/16 hours on 3G.
