Samsung Galaxy Note II

2012-08-29
hey guys if that would have urged you here at Aoife 2012 in berlin and we just taken look at the brand new galaxy note to you from Sampson it's just been shown to us for the very first time I've unlocked it you heard the little water sprinkling sound it's very much like the Samsung Galaxy S free it's still the same user interface is still the naturist by a design that doesn't really have that much an HR in it but whatever Samsung describes the Galaxy Note 2 as an expansion and refinement of the galaxy s free interface and you know the features that are introduced their sharing features etc but as much as this is about refining that interface and that software this is also another speck heavy device it has a 5.5 inch 1280 by 720 Super AMOLED display I don't know that it's without the pen tile range when I think in my defense I had take a closer look as two gigabytes of ram 1.6 gigahertz quad-core processor this is a very powerful device and extremely snappy take a look at the silver one here it's called Mountain grey I believe something is actually introduced a new S Pen here it is if it is given it a new shape it is now wider and longer to give me a better grip and there is now a rubber tip at the end and over here on the display you can see that now there's an automatic s-pen keep or application which pops up as soon as you pull the S Pen out of its silo on the back of the device so here you can start doing things with the home screen it seems seize the day with magic one so now it's called a magic wand I guess her so this is what Samsung cause a contextual screen where you can kind of see the variety of things that you can do with the S Pen the S Pen is integrated with a whole bunch of Samsung's own applications so software on this is Android 4.1 jelly bean the very latest version you should be coming out in quota for we've got hspa+ on this device you can presume and expect that there will be 8 LTE versions as well as I say this is a silver / grey one it kind of has that look that Samsung has given the galaxy s3 with the pattern on the back is still plastic and we've got the white version over here again very much like the galaxy is free you can kind of think of this is an expanded galaxy as free terms of size 5.5 inch display as I say with a stylus and there's a stylus lot down here at the bottom you get a little vibration when you pull it out and you get this magic wand menu over here much like the samsung galaxy is free this is NFC integrated as a 31 milliamp hour battery which is massive the only other smartphone class device that we've seen that has this sort of a battery is the droid razr maxx from motorola there's a size comparison so the droid razr maxx is y on another device with a 3000 + milliamp hour battery and we'll just take a look at it right here next to google's nexus 7 produced by asus to give you an idea of the size of this thing like the best way think with the Galaxy Note 2 is we took kind of that experience that occurred with the galaxy s3 both in terms of design and software experience and brought that to the note platform so you kind of got the refinement and evolution of what we did with the original galaxy note along with all of those great sharing features and the power of the galaxy s3 device so I think thinking about it as or thinking about it along the lines of the same galaxy s3 it's absolutely fair because it does feel and act a lot like that but now you've got the further advantage of having the s pen and the note characteristics with that so for us I mean we've got a number of iconic platforms one being the Galaxy S series of devices so galaxy s2 galaxy s3 then we've also got the note family of devices kind of as another flagship platform for us so started it with the original note kind of creating that unique category where we took a very powerful smartphone and integrated a lot of great tablet functionality and so and then if you look at kind of what we did with the S Pen with the Galaxy Note 10.1 kind of extending that paradigm a little bit further to content creation and a bunch of the unique tablet functionality and now kind of continuing to extend to that category further with the Galaxy Note so absolutely look at it as being a very different device in our galaxy s3 well needs to well the reality is what why would you stop extending I mean I think as long as consumers continue to look for kind of these unique features and as the technology continues to evolve we're going to continue to deliver these innovative products
