Hello all,
I'm due an upgrade in June and have my eye set on the Galaxy Note or the Galaxy S3. The one thing that compels me is the size of the screen on the Note, so I'm probably more inclined to the get the Note.
The only thing is, I don't want to buy the note and have the note 2 come out 2 months later, lol.
Maybe you guys can help me out here.

If you like to read and browse on a big screen then the note or the next iteration of the note is the solution. No contest there, anything less than 5 inch to me belongs to more of a phone. I am using the 4.7 inch HTC one x and the note, the 0.6 inch difference is missed when using the x. there are some occasion I wish a carry a smaller phone but on most occasion I am happy to fit the biggest size phone. The Samsung galaxy tab 7.7 on some occasion is perfect, yet the 5.3 for all occasion is perfect. Note 2 (700$~800$)won't be out international till November ish since that is when the original note got released. Buy note when possible keep it in good shape, resell and buy note 2. Dual core in euro note and lte note is adequate for most. So buy now and love life.

I agree - best phone on the market hands down... It's blazing fast, and there's really no need for quad core for any current use of a smartphone apart from tegra games, which you can run through chainfire. There has been no word of a note 2

get the note if you need/want the s-pen features.
Get the S3 is that's what it is, or get the Galaxy Nexus for ICS and JB
Don't wait for the Note 2 it wont be out till next year at the earliest.
There isn't any official information about the Note 2 yet, so you should go for either the Note or the upcoming S3.
Get the note, Samsung didnt realise how popular the note would be as such they never rolled it out quickly accross all the regions instead taking a staggered approach. The chances of a note 2 this year would be slim so enjoy what we have now
I think you should get the note if you love big screens like most of us here or get the S3 if you want more power and probably better spec which I am sure is going to be more expensive as well. But remember that there is always a better phone around the corner.
you should wait for the note 2
in the mean time use a string telephone
There is no announcement about the Note 2. Go buy the Note 1 now and skip a generation for the Note 3 and that way you'll always feel a significant upgrade.

What a pointless question! Should I get an existing only just released phone or wait for a fabled unicorn? Only you can answer that buddy. Personally, I'd go for a phone that is on the market (and amazing, by the way) rather than wait it out for the next generation which could still be years away!
S3 or Note - again only one of them is actually for sale (or has any firm specs) so you can't really make that decision either. If your contract is up in June, wait until then and see what is actually available at the time!
Pretty much everyone who has a Note will tell you how happy they are with it though. (Apart maybe the spoiled children who aren't happy we are having to wait for ICS )
Just get the Note. You could wait for Note 2, then for Note 3 etc. And the fact is that Note 1 is already amazing.
what about 3
You should wait for the note 3.... I dont understand people... You can also wait for the 4 i have heard it should be better...
Bought the Note now, it won't hurt you.
In matter of fact I do think this is one of my smartest decision i made. Definitely useable for work, for fun or just take a simple sketch

Whatever you buy and whenever you buy it, there's a always new model just around the corner, so there's no perfect time to buy. I can say that the Note is by far the best phone I've had - better than the S2 I had.

Hi,
Does anyone know of a kids case similar to the Samsung galaxy tab 3 7 kid edition one but for the Galaxy tab 3 8?
Kind regards,
I have been looking myself this listing claims its for the 3/4 but I am not sure how that is possible as the camera position is different on 3 vs the 4
I can't post the link.. but if you search amazon you will see this listing..

Now that the much anticipated Samsung device was launched and because we've had in the past Note 3 to Note 5 and Note 3 to Note 7 ported roms, will this Note 3 to Note 8 be possible? I surely hope so bc this would bring a sense of fresh air into my Note 7 AHEM Note 3 xD

Maybe better to ask this in the Galaxy Note 3 forum Dev's here won't be porting it to a Note 3.
But an answer to your question, Yes it sure will be possible. providing the Note 3 dev's have not left you to buy the Note 8
I'm sure someone will get to work on it as soon as the system dump is available shortly after release day.

i just waiting just like you for that new.rom
Actually, believe it or not I'm missing Action memo and personally liked old S-note much better. And frankly I don't see much software difference between N7 and N8, so you may be little disappointed.
two simple ways to do this.
1. Download the rom from: www.note8roms/downloads/note3/bootloaderunlocker/simfreeunlocktool
2. Go buy a Note 8
Edit: I just realized you dont need step 1 after all
I own a Tab s3 as well. Notes gets synced between the Note 8 and the tablet but if I try to edit in the tab a note written with the ... Note It says It cannot be done since they are two different versions or the app.
This is so unfortunate.
Anyone else? Any hint? Thank you.

Yeah in the same boat, this is actually very annoying. I can't seem to find a way around it.
I created a checklist in Samsung notes on my Tab S3, then edited the checklist on my new Samsung galaxy note 8, then when I go back to my Tab S3, it says I cannot edit it due to being edited in a different version of Samsung notes. I don't get how Samsung did not think of this.
I got the same issue but tried to find the same version of Samsung Notes (v2 and above) on Note 8 and installed it on my Tab S3. I can now edit my notes created on note 8....
How can I get this version?
I have Galaxy note 5 and tab s3 and I face the same problem although one month ago I could edit in both!

Depends. If you need money sell em eBay. If not use custom ROMs and have a good play around of them lots of fun.
I saw an article on what to do with all devices. I'm sure there's many articles out there for YouTube videos that might be the first shot actually.
