My Galaxy Note 2 is dead. Bought it from a samsung dealer SLOT in Nigeria 10months ago.It is supposed to have 2yrs warranty.They said it would take over 3months for it to be fixed by Samsung.This model of phone is supposed to be recalled back by Samsung to get the mother board chip replaced.Why would they make a phone charge over 700 dollars that would be used for 6 to 10months, then stop working.This is a reap off on Nigerians because it wouldn't happen in Europe.

yogi, 16 Nov 2013Hello, Samsung. This is my personal opinion and can also be... moreLike seriously you think samsung is coming is coming here to listen to your complaints? This is user opinion page where users and intending users interact and share opinions and experiences. Not for suggestions to samsung. Please visit samsung website and lay your complaints there.

@ All. As it's my all time practice that battery is one of the premium things you should care more. I always have backup battery with me. And for 6 months I use 1 battery and then use other and then replace it with the last one. Currently I am using Anker Battery and getting battery backup of 2 Days. With Original battery it was 5 to 6 hours more. That's what I love about replaceable batteries and as Engineering works every battery cells/ions get discharged by number of recycles.
I never feel worried about charging my Note 2. With playing games and browsing all days and downloading office all days, My Note 2 always make to 36 to 40 hours. I have almost 3 Note 2 Around and their battery backup is absolute class. My brother holds Iphone5s and all the time he is worried of charging. So I sense, I am holding a great phone with great display and great specs.

Two note 2 died last week. Mine which was a little bit than a year old, hence out of warranty and my wife's which is only 4 months old that I bought in dubai and that the local dealer in lebanon refused to fix foc.
Both stopped working suddenly and were diagnosed by the local dealer having insane emmc chips. They quoted us 375USD to repair each.
I googled the problem and found that most of the note2 and s3 have such bad chips. (There is a diagnostic tool available on the playstore named emmc check which detects if your phone has a bad chip)
I wonder why Samsung didn't initiate a product recall!! I paid a total of 1500usd for those phone fir God's sake.
This would have never happened with Apple or Nokia.
Shame on you Samsung!

Thita, 16 Nov 2013But it's has 3100 mph of battery,how can it's happen Battery backup is ok. I charge it after every 24 hrs approx. Its absolutely ok. Perhaps nokia battery backup is little more than compared to samsung. And it is quite a large phone, its obvious that battery backup will be little less. Its ok man. Now someone like SUDHAKAR wants battery backup till his grand's grand children arrival. Its naturally impossible. Its better for everyone here to simply avoid him. And if someone wants kitkat better purchase it from shop. U cant force nokia lumia 800 to support android gingerbread. Maybe they are still creating the software for note 2 which may take some 1 month. I like it as it is. I dont feel like updating it. If I would have to take phone with android 4.4 I would have taken another phone. Not note2

Dont belive SUDHAKAR he is one of the trolls only. Some months ago. I saw his opinions in nokia n8 forum and he use to complain same battery backup problem. He told everyone that he has nokia 103, one of the xpresss music phone by nokia , an n79 and nokia n8. Man he dosent own any phones. He is just playing silly pranks. After this review ur game of trolling will surely over. I should not see u here after this. If any doubt check some reviews of nokia n8 of november 2012.

Hi, Galaxy Note II users.
How long do you charge your Note II smartphone from low battery (15% or less) to 100%? New, just has been used less than 1 year or more, never mind.

We are not agents of Samsung, we are not getting paid from Samsung for doing their false publicity. Every set has good things and bad things. if our note 2 is so perfect then why samsung made note 3, why upgraded its processor Ram and Camera.

Hello, Samsung. This is my personal opinion and can also be considered as an advise and idea. I'm using note2 for the last 3 weeks and I'm really enjoying this phone. Let me come to the matter. Today my friend asked me to suggest her a good phone within the price range of 15000. Sadly I was not able to suggest a Samsung product to her and asked her to go for some lumia 625 or 720. If you see your products those are launched in India, no phone is good below 30 or 25k. Every other phones are dual sim which is completely waste for performance. It cannot work without lags or hangs and everyone knows it. I know some evergreen phones from Samsung like s2, s3, s4, note2 and finally note3 but what about normal people? Can they get a phone in this price range? People are not going for Sony only because Samsung is good but also due to their worst quality. You can see many good phones from Sony in 15k price range but they dont have quality even in their top end phones. So please understand the need of the people and launch your phones accordingly. We dont need some 10 phones with dual sim. 3 phones are more than enough. Give some performance phones within the price range of 20k at least. I know you are competing with Apple but consider about people too. This is the only reason still Apple is leading is US. Start considering people from every angle then you will be the first in this whole world. Its up to you whether to take this opinion seriously or not. But one thing Samsung.....Even I (we) know business. This is just an advise from business angle.

> 10 minutes* phone calls
> 4 hours WiFi browsing*
> 20 minutes * online texting (instant messengers)
> 20% display brightness (manually set and then auto enabled)
> 20 minutes* of 720p video playback
* means non continuous
I am using on the above conditions. If I am not using, I am putting it in PURE OFFLINE mode (even bluetooth and WiFi off) when not using it. Still I am getting only 24 to 28 hours of battery backup. First of all try to accept others feedback. You are talking as if you went directly to the Samsung company in Korea and bought the handset. Correct yourself.
