[quote=GeneL]I can see that Samsung is giving Apple a run for the money with the Note 2.
Well, no you can't because as far as I know, you have no experience with Apple's phone offerings.
No experience? Where did you get that idea from?
I am surrounded by iPhones! Friends, neighbors, relatives…there's no shortage around here.
I've had the opportunity to "play" with every model, since the iPhone first hit the market.
Actually, a year ago I was waiting for the new iPhone so I could replace the borrowed basic Verizon phone that I was temporarily using after giving up on the Treo, Centro and Pixi phones that I had used with Sprint.
I wanted an iPhone in the worst way, but when the new model came out, it still had a small screen.
I know that I wasn't alone in my disappointment when the 4s arrived with basically the same screen as the previous model.
As I've said for a long time, I wanted a cellphone with a larger screen, so I could enjoy programming streamed from my home DVR.
I decided to buy a used Droid X on eBay to hold me over until Apple decided to produce a larger screen.
Okay, the iPhone 5 is a bit bigger, but for me it just wasn't big enough.
Comparisons between the iPhone 5 and the Galaxy 3 and the Note 2 show that some features are superior on the iPhone and there are features on the Samsung phones that outshine the iPhone.
Besides size, I love the S-pen, which can be used like a mouse as well as writing and drawing. It will take me a while to master the myriad of features that my Note 2 incorporates, but so far, I do love it.
You like chocolate, I like Black Raspberry… it's a matter of personal taste and the numbers are indicating a wide taste for Samsung's latest beautiful "large screen" models.
So, yes I can!
I'm glad you're enjoying it. It is the bomb phone. People love it. Hopefully Apple will represent in this arena. Millions upon millions of people want a large screen iPhone. I know this in my bones.
