Samsung Galaxy Note review
Note: Our original review was of the unlocked, £499.99 ($784) GSM Galaxy Note. We've updated the review to reflect our impressions and tests of the $299 (with contract) AT&T model as well. Check out the Connectivity and Software sections, in particular, to see the biggest differences between the two devices.
There once was a time, commonly referred to as the pre-iPad era, when people questioned if there really was a gap between laptops and smartphones for tablets to fill. The two...

Pre-orders for the device will kick off on Super Bowl Sunday, February 5th, and AT&T's promising that all pre-orders processed by the 15th will arrive in customers' homes in time for launch day.

AT&T's Q1 roadmap leaked: Titan II for $199.99 on March 18th, Galaxy Note for $299.99 on February 18th?
If your AT&T contract is just about up, you might want to hold off for a bit as it looks like some new phone options are on their way. In addition to the Lumia 900 — which is rumored to arrive for $99.99 on contract — AT&T's got another LTE Windows Phone 7 device in the hopper: a source has told BGR that the HTC Titan II will come out on March 18th for $199.99. Of course, if Windows Phone doesn't suit your fancy there are also plenty of LTE-equipped Android phones coming to AT&T: the Sony...

Samsung Galaxy Note announced for AT&T (hands-on pictures and video)
AT&T has just announced that it'll be bringing the 5.3-inch Galaxy Note to the United States, a beastly half-phone, half-tablet that spans the divide between two white-hot product segments. The feature list should sound familiar: it's in many ways the same Galaxy Note already available in Europe, featuring a 1280 x 800 Super AMOLED display, 8-megapixel primary and 2-megapixel secondary cameras, and the so-called "S Pen," a stylus integrated into the rear that can be used to register...

AT&T Galaxy Note confirmed at CES 2012
Phone? Tablet? It's Galaxy Note on AT&T and ready to be launched by Samsung here in Las Vegas, not that we ever doubted it. But where's the LTE logo? The Samsung Galaxy Note features a 5.3-inch HD Super AMOLED display and launched in Korea 19 days ago with LTE and Android 2.3 in tow. So maybe AT&T's just being coy and will surprise us on Monday when we expect this hybrid device to be priced during the official announcement.

AT&T-branded Samsung Galaxy Note promo images leak
Even before today, it was looking likely the Samsung Galaxy Note was headed for AT&T, and today PocketNow released some official-looking promo images that make it even more probable. Aside from swapping in four capacitive Android buttons for the single home button on the international version (as we saw the other day), the tablet / smartphone hybrid looks unchanged. There's very little left to do with this device but announce it, which we're fairly sure will happen next week at CES. If you've...

AT&T-bound Galaxy Note confirmed by accessory maker Anymode?
We had a good idea the Galaxy Note would soon be making an appearance on AT&T when we saw an image of the device emblazoned with the carrier's logo. Now there's even more evidence of an impending release after accessory vendor Anymode seems to have prematurely announced itself as an OEM partner for the Note's launch on AT&T. In a CES Media Alert, the company announces plans to exhibit its accessories at CES, which leads us to believe that Ma Bell will be making its plans official in Las Vegas...

Samsung ships 1 million Galaxy Notes, promises US release in 2012
The stylus-strapped Galaxy Note has achieved its first milestone, crossing the one million shipments mark within a couple of months of its global release. Shipments to retailers and carriers are, by definition, always greater than actual end-user sales, but Samsung will still be encouraged to see broad support for its unorthodox Android device. Measuring in at 5.3 inches, the Galaxy Note intentionally straddles the gap between tablet and smartphone form factors, aiming to be everything to...

Galaxy Note with LTE announced in Korea
We still don't know if it's a tiny tablet or a monster phone, but Korean Galaxy Note buyers will now have the option of picking one up with LTE. It might be available today, and Samsung announced that the LTE version will include NFC, unlike the Galaxy Note that was made available earlier this month in the UK. We don't know what Samsung's plans are outside of Korea, but it's certainly possible that Verizon or AT&T may decide to bring it to their LTE networks. If the prospect of an LTE-powered...

Samsung Galaxy Note hands-on preview
The 5.3-inch Galaxy Note is large and in charge at IFA today. We've gotten to grips with one of the very first units and you can find the hands-on gallery (and now video!) right after the break.
Samsung is well known for its amazing mobile displays by now, but we're not sure we've seen anything as amazing as the Galaxy Note's display. It's not just the high pixel density or Super AMOLED's great brightness and viewing angles, but the colors are some of the truest we've ever seen from Samsung....

Samsung Galaxy Note unveiled at IFA: 5.3-inch Super AMOLED display, WXGA resolution, and S Pen stylus
Ever heard of a 5.3-inch Super AMOLED screen with 1280 x 800 resolution and a pixel density of 285ppi? The answer, now that Samsung has removed the veil of mystery from its new Galaxy Note Android smartphone, is a most enthusiastic 'yes!' Codenamed GT-i9220, the Galaxy Note comes with a dual-core 1.4GHz processor (the same as in the Galaxy Tab 7.7), 1GB of RAM, 16GB or 32GB of built-in storage, an 8-megapixel rear- and 2-megapixel front-facing camera, and a dedicated stylus dubbed S Pen.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7, Galaxy Note, and Wave 3 launching at IFA on September 1st
Samsung’s plans for this year’s IFA have been unwittingly revealed early by the company’s own teaser app for Android. A tipster of ours went digging around inside the Samsung Mobile Unpacked APK and discovered the trio of logos you see above. They suggest that the company will be launching three new products: a Galaxy Tab 7.7 tablet, a Wave 3 smartphone, most likely running the latest edition of the Bada OS, and a Galaxy Note, a device whose nature remains a mystery. We’ve verified...
