The Note forges a new class of gadgetry with this stunning phone and tablet gap-closer
Although the Dell Streak (below) came first, Samsung’s plus-size Note is the first tablet¬bothering smartphone to threaten a real scrap. It’s got nuff skills and a huge screen It’s a whopper. An impressive 5.3 inches of HD Super AMOLED goodness beams out at you when the Note powers up. It’s sharp enough to cut your eyeballs too, with a 720p HD screen that has a density of 285ppi ¬that means individual pixels are almost indiscernible. Although the iPhone 4 does claim 326ppi
If you’ve got the ability to play back 1080p videos at 30fps, then the full HD skills of the rear-mounted 8MP snapper will come in handy. There’s also an LED flash, while the front-facing video chat camera is a more pedestrian 2MP.
The elephant in the room is the stylus, or S Pen. Although the Note’s creators suggest practical uses, such as drawing a map or handwriting texts, you’ll obviously use it to draw moustaches (or worse) on photos and upload them to Facebook. The stylus is fun, but still a gimmick. The screen isn’t the only part of the Note that’s blinding, It’s screechingly fast, thanks to a 1.4GHz dual-core processor. Not since a fox outwitted a piece of confectionery has anyone seen Gingerbread running this quickly, Despite its supersize frame and powerful innards (there’s also a 16GB SD and an army of sensors), the Note hasn’t let it go to its waistline. It’s well under 10mm thick and tips the scales at less than 180g, We’re interested to see how long its vast 2500mAh battery’ll last, though
