AnonD-10050, 06 Sep 2011Again 1000 dollar for cheap plastic. I would have gone for ... moreyeah, but the iPhone doesn't have a pressure-sensitive pen, Android OS and the screen is much better, not to mention all their typical Apple annoying proprietary and exclusive junk that it comes with
also you can't let yourself be seen with Apple products lately without people shaking their heads and cursing you under their breath
I seriously hope this phone gets cheaper tho, I also wanted to buy it

The article fails to mention, that sales taxes in Denmark are 25% and that the price displayed corresponds to the price of an Iphone 4 with 32gb.

Jeez, Quadrant score? Lol. That app isn't even well optimised for Dual core devices and you guys compared with the score of that app!
I got 2900 when I ran it first time, now its 3700 sometimes on my SII.
Quadrant is non sense.

Apple is like a religion to most of their fans. So whatever the price, they'll hand their hard earned money over and thank Steve for granting them that opportunity. Samsung doesn't have a cult following like Apple. So charging close to €1000 for a niche product like the Galaxy Note is insane. This thing won't dive faster than the Hindenburg, because it will never get off the ground..its doomed from the get go!!

Why are all the companies going crazy after big screens. It would be like the 90's when the only mobile phone was produced by Motorola and it was the same size as this Galaxy Note. I personally think 4.5 is the max screen any mobile should have or otherwise these handsets will not remain handsets they would be tablets and we don't want that. When tablets were released they were failed because they were not much portable as a mobile phone. All companies are now finishing the difference between a mobile phone and a tablet.

AnonD-16139, 06 Sep 2011so when the iphone is expensive its worth is? but no other ... moreWell, isn't it the Samsung and Android fans who always go on and on about expensive expensive expensive. Suddenly when your company charges you a lot its ok? Isn't that a bit hypocritical? If you believed in what you were saying, it would be the Samsung fans who would be the most outraged about this price, not Apple users.

stop your complaining gsm arena, u all know the price will come down within a matter of weeks, look at the SGS II, already u can get it for abt AU$600, by the end of the yr it will be $500, this galaxy note will start high but drop like a pair of boobies on a white girl who just turned 31.

Well, one has to remember that the Note will come with an electronic pen - probably similar to the one sold for HTC Flyer. If Samsung is able to improve on the resolution and ease of writing with this pen - I may be considering the purchase. Especially if quality of built is similar / a bit better than Galaxy S2. And - theoretically - I should be happy with the form factor - big enough to read books and pdfs yet still mobile enough to fit in my pocket. Looking forward to seeing some reviews when the Note is released... ;-)

I was seriously considering this as a smartphone as it is just small enough in my personal opinion. I know others will beg to differ, so please no comments about that. I seem to remember that the first prices for the Galaxy S2 were not far short of this and it subsequently came down?? No way will I be entertaining at this price point. Samsung have now in all probability just given free reign for mobile providers to also rip us off for it. You will pay the same or more than a brand new mobile phone but still pay the same monthly line rental which is precisely what killed the first Galaxy Tab in the UK.

If this was Apple, nobody had anything to say. Don't forget it's a unique product with no competition so far so it is to be expected such a high price.
