Samsung Galaxy Note 2

Also released to the public at Unpacked 2012 was the Galaxy Note 2. A lot of people were expecting this to be released at IFA 2012 and Samsung didn’t disappoint.

I got some hands on time with this amazing device (you can see some of my videos on here for some of its software features).

On release the Galaxy Note 2 will be released in titanium grey and marble white.

In this photo the original Galaxy Note is on the left where the Galaxy Note 2 is on the right.

I got some hands on time with this device and also managed to perform a speed test using the Antutu Benchmark app from the Google Play store, check out the results below:

My overall impressions on the device are that I WANT ONE! It’s really great for creative people and I’m forever drawing so would love to get my hands on one to have a bit more play time. There’s also some really fantastic software features (see my post here: http://staceysamsungmobiler.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/galaxy-note-ii-feature-videos.html)
