Samsung-Galaxy Note II: U.S. Launch Date Confirmed by Nobody: 1:23am On Oct 14, 2012
[size=18pt]Samsung Galaxy Note 2 U.S. Launch Date Confirmed[/size]


While it didn’t exactly need to confirm the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 U.S. launch date, Samsung did just that today, sending out media invites for the Galaxy Note 2 World Tour set to take place on October 24th in New York City.

Earlier, Samsung’s invites only hinted at a Galaxy Note 2 unveiling on October 24th in New York City but today’s invite is confirmation that the Galaxy Note 2 U.S. launch date is in fact October 24th.

The company’s new invite does not reveal anything new other than the fact that it will indeed be the Galaxy Note 2 that will be showcased at the event.

Yes it is worth the wait but you may have to pay extra for the Note 2. In any case the price of the SGS3 might drop when Note 2 is out so if you don't like the Note 2 or its higher price you can get the SGS3 for cheaper.

Yea, it would. It's like $600 without contract. I'm thinking of kuku buying with because I hate any type of contract (they're like chains).

I'll buy my phone the same day I buy my iPad, the anticipation makes it all worth it.

Can you imagine that I've been patiently waiting since the ending of August? I've never been this patient tongue

It will make quite some difference at least a $100 worth.

I hear Apple may update the ipad come the 23rd won't you rather get the updated version?

The Note 2 is worth the wait.

$300 is the rumored price, atleast from some phone companies.

Apple is releasing the iPad mini. . . . which doesnt make sense to me. If I needed an iPad mini, I'd turn on my itouch. I'm going for the "New iPad".
I was thinking of the galaxy tab but it doesnt look sexy enough cry cry Too bulky looking and it reminds me of the Kindle fire.

Nooo who is talking of ipad mini, I was refering to the new ipad (ipad3). I hearsay that they may give it the new lightening connector and some other upgrades.

My friend has both the 2 and 3, he told me that the only difference between them is the camera. I'm thinking of saving myself $300 by just getting the second one. What's your opinion on that?

My opinion is that your friend doesn't know what he's talking about...

The most visible difference between the two models is the screen resolution.
Re: Samsung-Galaxy Note II: U.S. Launch Date Confirmed by Nobody: 6:08pm On Oct 22, 2012
Would screen resolution matter in deciding which one to buy?

E bi like say english dey fail you for morning time. I said I heard they want to re-release the ipad3 with the new lightening connector and some other upgrades. If you are gonna get an ipad3 won't you rather get the upgraded one? Ma so mi lenu jor!

Actually tex is right the screen is a bigger difference and kinda worth it considering that it has other upgrades. But like I said let's see what tomorrow holds whether they'd re-release the ipad3 with the lightening connector.

For real, they are thieves up in that Apple complex. If I'm going to spend my hard earned cash, I might as well make sure it's worth it.



@Lord reed

What's the difference between LTE and HSPA+ in terms of performance? One phone company offers GN2 with LTE and another offers it with HSPA+, not sure which one is better. I heard that LTE is the new revolution and might not available in some coast and still being tested, while HSPA+ is ubiquitous and already well developed.

HSPA+ 14mbps

LTE 72mbps


I do have an LTE modem and the difference is clear. I open web pages faster

and well youtube is a dream on that speed while else on HSPA+ which is technically

3G is just well painfully to use. buttom line is once you use LTE, there is no going back!!!

I think it might hit the stores in November too. Some phone companies are not even talking, no release date or price.

nah... there's no way the GN2 can be sold at 107k, at amazon its approximately $700 and even after the official launching that will be taking place in the US tomorrow, i still doubt the price dropping any lower than $60-80$. either ways,i think the phablet is worth $700.
BTW, is it just me, i think most of the galaxy S3 has one problem or the other. mine drops signal when making/receiving calls and takes about 10 seconds to come back on.
