Glad they went that way. I was honestly concerned that by adding the QC discrete antenna that they were going to disable the standard one... this also suggests that the phones are becoming more and more standardized. I would think adding a discrete antenna to the existing board is a lot easier than a whole new board and associated support.
Hopefully this is a permanent shift in their thinking and future Samsung releases on CDMA will go down the same road. This very much puts me in the camp for this device - if I stay with Sprint or the MVNO.

Yeah it looks like Samsung will be doing the same thing they did with the S3. All the carriers will get EXACTLY the same phone worldwide.

Note 2 does seem to have the same hw across the board with the exception of adding the CDMA antenna. Maybe lesson learned from the past few years...?

Gahh, the soft home button is one thing I do like more about my S2 over my wife's S3. I don't care for the whole pushing-straight-in-on-the-bottom-quarter-of-the-device-until-it-responds thing.
I suppose that's just one minor detail overshadowed by 100 other awesome features about this thing I could eventually get used to!
Sprints rendering of their version is EXACTLY the same as the International Version.

Yes, the GN2 looks like similar specs across the board, but to say the GS3 did is way off. There were at least 3 variants of the GS3 like international quad core/1 GB rom, US dual core/2 GB rom, Korean quad core/2GB rom. So to say the were EXACTLY the same across the board was what I was referring to.
Would anyone trade the GALAXY Note II in for the Next Nexus if it had an A15 processor?

That is very true everything you said.
I guess we can say the exterior hardware is exactly the same across the board. Just like the Note II will be.

Wasn't disagreeing... Think they're tired of so many different flavors to support. Costs $$$ after all.

International phone. Not world phone.
As mentioned.... The lte exynos is on board as confirmed by multiple sources already, and yes...Samsung has been quoted to be aiming towards the same exact device worldwide with limited differences between carriers, the only issue on previous releases has been limitations of the prior exynos
Also previously confirmed is the home button.
All we need now is a firm date. We already knew it would be out mid Oct to mid November....so that really isn't new info

Well, according to sextape's pix, there doesn't seem to be a sim slot. Either it's hidden somewhere else or it's hidden INSIDE, which would be sad
My Sprint SERO-P contract os ending in Nov, this seem like all the signs are pointing at this as my next phone. Perfect timing.

20I was looking through some Samsung RDF's this morning and stumbled across a new unannounced phone!
For those that aren't familiar with an RDF they are the development and design specs for a given build on a phone. This one just happens to be for a phone that is not yet out or even announced! EDIT: I have now confirmed with a source of mine that this is in fact the RDF for the Samsung Galaxy Note 2!
Some of the cool things I found in the RDF?
- Exynos4412 processor
- 1280x720 resolution
- Android 4.1.1!
- Support for EVDO, DOrA, WiFi and LTE!
- 2 GB RAM
- 16 GB HDD (with expansion slot up to 32 GB)
- 8 Megapixel camera
- And more!
Honestly there's a ton of stuff in there and smarter minds than mine should be able to pull more out of it. This early in the RDF process I'm guessing that this is purely an engineering build and may not even be the final specs but still something to keep an eye out for!
Now for the fun stuff! FYI - The RDF is only viewable in Internet Explorer.

Enjoy!
EDIT: Garwynn has pointed out that the Galaxy Note 2 has specs that are identical to that of the RDF. Check out this article from DroidLife for pictures and info.

Now we've got pictures of what appears to be a test model! Courtesy of our friend Sextape.8Seems like a lifetime ago RW discovered this device would be unleashed onto the world. Now I hold this beast in my hand!!!

-Galaxy Note II Edition7Glad they announced it today! Would love to get it when I have money, cause I have an idea how about a ROM that all stock apps (maybe even 3rd party apps) support multiview?! When I can get my hands on one, I will work on it. But I know it can be done
