I doubt it is Japanese. They do not do that kinds stuff. More likely made by a Chinese company. What will you do when it breaks?

first of all if a company other than samsung makes it then it is not a note II but just a phone that looks like it. And second at that price point it would be impossible to make a phone with the same specs and still make a profit so my advice is NO do not buy it.
That's the link from eBay but I was wondering if it had lte

You get what you pay for.
Buy that 250 dollar phone and tell us how well its built, how long it lasts, and if it gets any software updates.. (guess software updates is a bad example. LOL)
I have seen companys like these. They use diffrent components
If u flash a "note ii rom" to it most likeley you will have a brick.
But they do have nifty stuff.
Id like to get one and play with it. But I expect a total peice of s**t Chinese knockoff device

aftermarket note 2
If you want a clone note 2 there are a lot of Chinese clones, a few i saw even call themselves galaxy note 2, I think I know the one you are talking about, at least the price is the same, the specs are horrible, no service to speak of, the screen is actually only 800x480, I meg ram. I'd stay away from it. Manufacturer of that phone wholesales them for $119, a piece of real junk
Check Reviews on Amazon
On amazon there are alot of people Giving those devices great initial reviews. Then coming back and saying Do NOT BUY.. They Do work ok for watching movies on i think . But the stylus is a Rubber capacitive stylus not a Wacom.. I would save a few more bucks up and Buy a used Note 2 on ebay. or buy the note 1..
You can get new Note 1 on amazon for 350.00 Brand new..
Used note 2 are going for 400.00 and up on Ebay from respectable Sellers..
I am currently waiting for mine that i ordered yesterday to come in .. Like new IN Box with all accessories mint condition 475.00 ... I could not see buying a new one when i have a Nexus 7 32 gb a note 10.1 32 gb . and a nice 4 inch Huawei unlocked global phone (from amazon) .... ohh i also have a Nice destop computer dual booting.. a New 17 inch hp laptop and 11.6 inch hp notebook.. I know i am bad....
I am Erica and I am a Tech Hoarder . Please take my credit cards
I would get the nexus 7 or note 10 but can't use it as a straight phone that i know off. I would need a wifi to use to make calls and texts over Google voice

Runs smooth everything you would expect from a sammy device. I posted this to show my piece of early software i got ahold of.

The 22nd was a requested release date, never a hard and fast one. Best Buy has them and is displaying them as well. Word is that as soon as they come in they are being displayed by request of Best Buy corp. Good that you got one though. Very cool device from what I can see. The 7 inch was displayed but they didn't have the 10 inch one in yet and that is the one I want.

Galaxy Tab 2 P3113
Sagged mine on 4/9 and delivered on 4/12 from hhgregg for $240 including tax and shipping. Now see they won't have till the 22nd at he $249 plus tax regular price. Have the P6210 plus also, grabbed it onsale months ago for $299 total. P6210 is better but P3113 is very good. Know if we had root for root apps.
Bought mine on release day 4/22 at BestBuy.
Didn't actually know that was the release day. Was in need of a cheap tablet, was going to get Nook or Kindle Fire but for $50 more without the hassle of needing to mess with firmware for Google App support it was worth it.
Waiting for root. Any idea when XDA will make a forum for Galaxy Tab 2? (Prob same for 10.1 and 7.0 maybe?). Only reason I need root is to install the Cyanogenmod CM9 ported DeskClock and also have automatic time sync since I use this as a alarm clock and like precision.
One odd thing I noticed though. There's no "Stock" Clock app. (Called DeskClock on most devices). Alarm Clock+ and a few others mimic it and my Archos Home Connect 35 has it. What's funny is i tried to install the cyanogenmod CM9 custom build of it, and the package already exists on my Tab 2 7.0. But there's no application shortcut for it, and com.android.deskclock doesn't show up in the application listing.
Any idea's how I can access the clock or get the stock clock working? (I Know theres alternatives but it annoys me that there is so "Stock" Deskclock app.
So after 6 years of being on my mother's cell plan I'm getting the boot. I have a decision to make now. In 3 weeks or so I'll be moving to Verizon and I'm having a problem making a decision on what phone to get. I'd like to get some pov from the community.
1. I could get the S3 but I don't see a big difference from my t989. It's just my opinion. I'm not to impressed with the S3. To me it just seems like an extra gig of RAM and that's it.
2. I could get a Galaxy nexus and save some money. Save some money till something more impressive than the S3 comes out.
What do you guys think? If I'm wrong I'd love to be told.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2
The difference in money is not worth jumping to S3 from S2.
Nexus is good, but no memory expansion....so I'll pass on it.
I would wait for Galaxy Note 2.....Now THAT I will buy too, even
if I love my S2....

When talking on the phone (Note), use a small bluetooth.
And when you do something else on it, yes it will draw
a lot of attention...just remember...they are ALL JEALOUS of you!!!
So, it will be a "good" attention!
:good:
Try considering a prepaid plan w/ the use of google voice and VOIP program. I've heard it saves quite a bit of money.
And if you do end up going to Verizon, buy a Note2 and sell it. It'll probably sell pretty darn high if it's unopened.

I would wait for the Galaxy Note 2. If you don't mind being on a GSM carrier, than I might also wait for the LG Optimus Nexus. Some of the leaked specs for it include a 1.5 GHz Quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro CPU, 2 GB RAM, a 4.7 HD display, 8 mpix camera, etc. The best part is that the 8 GB model will retail for 299$ and the 16 GB will retail for 349$.

Perhaps a controversial suggestion in these forums; but how about a Nokia Lumia 620? It does a much better job of being a phone than my Note 2. I use my Note 2 basically as my laptop...I wouldn't consider using it as my phone though given its size, price & complexity.
I also find that some of the core apps on the Lumia have no equal in the Android sphere (Nokia Drive works completely offline; Nokia Music is completely free - and you can store about 12 hours worth of offline music).
If only Android were a little more user friendly...

I vote for the Nexus 4. You're getting a great processor, and a guaranteed updates for a while. dollar for dollar / euro for euro, it can't be beat. If I were on a budget, I'd consider that... for 3 seconds... and buy it. But make sure you get a case! Some people who have dropped it have complained of shattering it. But I don't doubt that wouldn't happen with the Note 2 or any other device.

From a owner of a 7" and 10" tablet (Nook and Toshiba Thrive), the 7" meets my reading and gaming needs, but the 10" is better for watching movies and streaming video. I personally only use the 10" now. I read on my gs3 now. Best part is I bought my Thrive from an apple owner who didn't like android. It was released in the summer 2011 for $600 (32gb) and I bought it for $200 and it didn't even look used. It has full sized HDMI, usb, micro usb, and I'm running 4.1.1.
One Dev worked on it for 6 months getting everything working. I've rooted quite a few Nexus 7 for my friends and they are great tablets as I'm sure the 10" is, but for my uses I didn't need the latest tech. So in the end if you can afford it screen size can never be to big. (That coming from someone who just bought a 70" TV because 60" just wasn't big enough).

Bought a nexus 7 for my daughter in fourth grade. Works wonderful for all the games, movies, streaming..No lag at all. She doesn't have to close out apps or worry about anything, just works.
So for the processing power...the 7 works great. Only thing I can compare it too is kindle myself...which it blows away.
Not disappointed is my point I guess. No idea on the 10.
She plays Netflix, Comcast on demand, and Spotify. As well as any game she wants from store, and the hd hack version of YouTube for the 720p.

Personally, I would go with a Nexus 10 (thought about trading in my iPad 2 for a Nexus 10, but it was too much hassle for right now). But it might be better to wait a while...the Nexus 10 is in its first generation and there are rumors they might release a refresh. I'd also take a hard look at the next generation Windows tablets...the ones with the full x86 Windows 8. I'm planning to replace my laptop and iPad with a Windows tablet, surface 2 if it's good or something comparable. Makes lots of sense to me to replace two devices with one, and have my main computing power in my desktop!

Hey bro glad to here about your latest android addition. However I need to let you kmow about a problem a lot of the Nexus 7's are having. I got one for X-Mas and started doing all the normal things you would do with a new device root, rom and some research. I found out that a lot of them are having problems with the screen lifting off the bezel. So about 2 days after I got it I noticed the screen was getting loose. So I held it up and looked at the edge and my screen was coming up. I could push the screen down and it would just push itself up. There are some guides on how to fix it at home but they never lasted for me, the problem just came back. I ended up taking mine back. I hope you dont have this problem. But I would look into it just to be safe.

Why dont you just ask this question and your other question on just one of your post instead of flooding xda with the same questions since they all relate to you selling or trading it. Plus every post I see you say you love your note 2 but damn you trying to pass her around like a $2 hooker.

I agree with the poster above. You say you love Galaxy Note 2, but still want to downgrade to Galaxy S3 with a little extra money. Upgrading is one thing, but downgrading shows how you feel about the device that you are downgrading from. That feeling is definitely not a love feeling.
Question that comes into my mind is: Why do you want to get rid of your Galaxy Note 2 just to get the Galaxy S3?
Because I have the iPhone 5 so idk if I should keep both nd use both our just trade or sell the Note 2

Let me get this right. You are using Galaxy S3 (SGH-T999) to post here about selling/trading your Galaxy Note 2 for another Galaxy S3 with more money, because you can't let go of your iPhone 5 and you now have two or more devices in use. Sorry long winded there.
Boy, the plot thickens.
Do you know that the Galaxy S3 is smaller, less powerful and less battery life device over Galaxy Note 2 being larger and more powerful device with longer battery life? This is why this doesn't make sense to us.
If you can't let go of your iPhone 5 then that should be your device. No need to sell or trade to get Galaxy S3 when you already own one. If you want to get rid of your Galaxy devices then why not give them to someone who really needs a smartphone and would make use of Android. Just make sure that you fully paid for the Galaxy devices before selling/trading/giving away.
Why are you using smartphone devices? What use are you getting from them? What would you like to do with them? Why would you go smaller, less powerful, and less battery life device over larger, more powerful device with longer battery life? Why not look at the new devices that are coming out? Are you just going for the most popular device of the moment? I am just trying to understand your thought process.
Keep both and delete your xda account.
