Hands on: Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (N7100)

New Delhi, Dec 3: The Samsung Galaxy Note smartphone was the first hybrid tablet-smartphone device to be launched, and very quickly people became a fan of the new category of devices, called Phablets. Well, phablets


Display and touch




The Galaxy Note 2 N7100 has a 5.5 inch true 720p (1280 x 720 pixel) resolution display that is more than useful for people to go creative and play around with the S-Pen stylus. The display is built using Super Amoled technology that offers better colour and contrast levels too. Overall, the display on the Galaxy Note 2 is great and as with all the top end devices from Samsung it certainly livens up the device with colours.

The display features a true 720p resolution, which is slightly lower than the older Note, but for all tasks right from video to imaging and browsing the display works wonderfully.

The touch sensitivity of the device is good and very accurate too. Multitouch and gestures are very cleanly recognized by the device, resulting in perfect action every time.

The S-Pen stylus adds to the utility as well as functionality of the device; the Gorilla Glass 2 gives it the perfect protection and protects it from damage from the pressure sensitive stylus. The S-Pen stylus is sensed by the device from a couple of millimeters above the display, which shows its level of sensitivity and aids flawless productivity. The S-Pen also has functions associated with the hovering so you can scroll through pages and menus without even touching the screen. The brightness levels of the display are quite appropriate and make the device legible in bright light too.

The TouchWiz user interface works perfectly with the device's hardware and makes it very easy for a new user to get comfortable with the big screen and the stylus too.
