Samsung Galaxy Note 2: Specs and Updates

I made this post to inform you readers on how the specs of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 N7100 will be.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is an upgrade to the Samsung Galaxy Note (which I am currently using), and to  give you an idea the Note is a big smartphone making it in a class of its own called Phablets. Phablets are the what you might call hybrids of the industry which is in simple terms too big to be a phone and too small to be a tablet.



Back to the Samsung Galaxy Note 2, I will try to make this specs presentation as simple as possible, so here we go.

NETWORK
- it will function on all networks including
 2G Network - 850/900/1800/1900
 3G Network - HSPA+21Mbps
 4G LTE: 100Mbps / 50Mbps

PROCESSOR
- The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 boasts a wopping 1.6GHz QUAD CORE processor, compared to it's predecessor's (Galaxy Note) 1.4 GHz Dual Core processor.

OS
- The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 carries the latest Android version of the JELLY BEAN 4.1

DISPLAY
- Set at 5.55inch HD Super Amoled (1,280 x 720) compared to Note's 5.3inch display

DIMENSIONS
- The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is slimmer and heavier than the Note, 80.5 x 151.1 x 9.4mm: wt. 182.5g
compare to Note's 82.95 x 146.85 x 9.65mm: wt. 178g still the Old Note is Wider but Shorter.

BATTERY & MEMORY
- Battery = standard 3,100mAh Li-Ion Batteries
- Memory = 16 / 32 / 64 internal memory including a 2GB RAM, they are microSD expandable up to 64GB, so does that mean that ig you have the 64 internal and 64 expansion, you have a monstrous 128GB memory smartphone? Awesome.

CAMERA & VIDEO
- Main camera (rear): 8mp Autofocus, with LED flash BSI
- Secondary Camera (front): 1.9mp VT camera BSI
Video: Full HD(1080p) Playback and Recording
- Format: 3gp(mp4) WMV(asf) AVI,FLV,MKV,WebM
- Codec: MPEG4, H.263, VC-1, DivX, WMV7-8-9, VP8
Almost the same with the OldNote except for the downgrade in Secondary Camera by a mere 0.1mp, from 2MP front camera.

AUDIO
Supports - MP3, OGG, WMA, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+, AMR(NB,WB), MIDI, AC-3, Flac, with Music Player with SoundAlive, and a standard 3.5mm Ear Jack.
What is Soundalive? it's a feature which optimizes your listening by making automatic adjustments to sound quality by analyzing the source, its basically an automatic equalizer in simple terms.

CONNECTIVITY
It has the following:
- Blutooth v4.0 (Apt-X Codec Support) LE, USB 2.0 Host, WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n (2.3&5 GHz), Wi-Fi HT40, and Wi-Fi Direct, NFC, S Beam

AND NOT TO FORGET THE S PEN WITH A SET OF NEW FEATURES.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 will come in Titanium Gray and Marble White

So basically it's a better version of the Galaxy Note sporting a somewhat SIII kind of features especially physically. all that's left to ponder on is the price, I really do hope they don't end up like the Iphone 5 which made it's price the biggest turn off of the product.

Recommendations:
If you are not an Apple Fan you might want to try this phone out. if you are upgrading from Samsung Galaxy note, SII and other lower specs smartphone maybe you could try this phone, if you have a small hand maybe not, but if you really want to the use your 2 hands, but still if the price is right.

Prices are still awaiting announcements and Release dates are not yet announced for the Philippines, but for the UK it's Oct. 1 and the US it's  Oct. 24 this year.
