Any way you can return it? The note 3 event is sept 4 (tomorrow) you might want to look at that. The note two is a great device but if you bought it just now at on 2 year contract price then it was a mistake

This phone rocks anyway..

Good community here, and I can't see it going anywhere anytime soon. Most people seem to be skipping the note 3 so I'd say our phone will still be relevant for quite some time

Note 3 is not my cup of tea. ..
That processor is gonna sound like a toilet flushing the battery. ..and the camera is lacking image stabilization. .

Leather black color looks odd. ...and 5.7 inches of display was a mistake. ..

Not to mention a guaranteed lock on the bootloader with endless exploit patches sure to come. ..

Sorry. ...I'll keep my rock solid note 2...at least another year. ..or until Sammy puts out the S5 active. ...

You did well getting a note 2...as it is a great device with great support and community. ..g

(All my opinion of course)...g

The camera does have image stabilization...

Also the processor is more efficient, therefore battery life should be equivalent to ours currently.

"13MP Camera With Stabilization

The Galaxy Note 3 includes an upgraded 13MP camera that includes smart stabilization. This is Samsung’s optical image stabilization which will make photos look better thanks to advanced technology. Users also have access to a host of camera modes found on the Galaxy S4 including Dual Shot."

You're right about Sammy image stabilization.

Which is going to be thru software based. But having true OIS is a big difference...
The phone is moving where the lens is sitting still. It's like it's on its own separate gyroscope!! I first seen it on the Sony camcorder at the CES show. The other functions that we'll get will be nice. But I'll hold out till the next model. Where technology will be very advanced by then...
Jmho;)

Then Samsung lied...
And besides the obvious boatloader issues...
A custom rom kills the neat software tricks... g

    Well after a long hard 3 months using an Iphone4 after my dell Streak 5 bit the dust. I decided it was time for a new phone. My choices were either a MEGA or Note 2. I checked out both but to my surprise the mega didn't flow as nice as the Note. So I took it home with me and am now the proud owner of a Note 2:laugh:
