The Note 2 comes with an improved S-pen stylus which is held inside the phone similar to the Note 2. Under the hood is a really fast Quad-core 1.6 GHZ Exynos CPU with 2GB of RAM and the front of the phone is dominated by the 5.5 inch Super AMOLED HD display.
The model number is GT-N7100. It was launched for Rs.39,900 in India and the sticker price is Rs.41700 on the box. There is a 3100 mAh battery inside the Note 2 and we are going to be testing the battery life in the next few days to see how long it will last. The Galaxy Note 2 is a pretty interesting package from Samsung. The Note 2 feels a lot more refined and smooth to operate compared to the Note 1 thanks to the hardware improvements and also the fact that the Note 2 runs on Android 4.1 JellyBean out of the box. Stay tuned to FoneArena for more Note 2 coverage.
Consumers who had pre-booked the device should be getting it this week or early next week. It is going on sale in the open market in India next week.
