The Note is not for extra small hands. I have seen more Notes used by girls than guys though, even girls with very little hands. So dexterity also figures in.If you have very small hands and limited dexterity, you may need a very small phone, maybe as little as an iPhone? Get whatever size phone...

Gartner is reporting first quarter world-wide smartphone sales and what a quarter it was for Android. Android vs. Apple Apple is up 16 million units which is really great until you see that Android is up 45 million units. Android (in purple above) now has over a 55% marketshare and may have...

I wish you would have allowed for the possibility that we may have always liked the phone. In similar polls on other sites that gets about 45% of the vote. The real issue may be that it is not the biggest and the best. The Note still holds the crown. The Galaxy S III is a mid-size flagship...

Nice find. The S3 has to be at 4.8" or close to it to set the next level. The Galaxy S II HD was 4.65" last September.

In 2010, the Galaxy S got Samsung up to 4" but everyone else was at 4.3". Still a good start. In 2011, the S II got Samsung to 4.3" and then 4.5" with the Epic Touch. Then came the SII HD hit 4.65" on Sept 26, 2011. Then the Galaxy Nexus and then the Note surprised everyone. Motorola got...

Alex, great article. I posted this in the blog: ------------------------ The Samsung S3 will have to at least equal the Samsung Galaxy S II HD specs from September 26, 2011: http://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-announces-galaxy-s-ii-lte-and-galaxy-s-ii-lte-hd-720p-display-korea ? 720p HD...

Yes, the new phones are worth it. Unless you are transferring multiple photos, songs, or other big files, keep the LTE off and save your battery. The point of the new phones is the big HD displays.

That is exactly the right question. The EVO 4G innovated. It was the first 4G phone and the first major 4.3" display. HTC was no longer cloning. HTC was innovating. HTC was leading. Sales went through the roof. Profits soared. Then in June 2011, HTC went back to their High Tech Computer days...

The sacrifice for 3D was a lower def camera, lower def display, and a small screen Those kinds of decisions are killing HTC. Finally HTC has a phone that can take on the GS2HD from last September and Galaxy Nexus from last November. Instead of leading the market last summer, 3D put HTC...

Well said. No one dreams of owning last year's phone. You may not be able to afford more, but it is not what you hope for.

The renderings of the SIII show the display at 4.8" but in a case no bigger than the 4.3" SII. That's the wonder of edge-to-edge.

It's funny, when this thread started, the thread title was asking if a 4.5" phone is too big. Now you might have zero interest in a 4.5" phone because it is too small.

Yep, you have a rogue app or widget. Our Getting Started section on Extend Your Battery - Speed Up Your Phone will show you what one it is.

Samsung said that they sold over a million Notes in 3 months. The Galaxy S II line sells 5 million a quarter with models for ATT, Sprint, another ATT, TM, Verizon, Korea, and at least 6 others. The Note is a huge hit. Watch as Samsung finally rolls it out to other carriers.

The Note is simply an amazing phone. It is the perfect size. If it came to Sprint, I would buy it.
