Verizon Note 2 Pre-order, Release date, and speculation thread

My brother got his S3 5 days before the in-store release. If we are going to get our Notes early, they need to ship Friday. I'm just not very optimistic.... :(
 
My dad and I had to go to two different Verizons just to play with a real working DNA. The first VZW had not gotten it's shipment and the employees were waiting for the FedEx truck to come. The second VZW had one. It is a lot smaller than the N2 and the screen looks really nice, but it's not changing my mind. On the 27th my dad and I are going to upgrade.

I have to say, when I first heard about the Note 2, I was decidedly uninterested. I mean, who wants to lug around a tablet all day? But, after looking at it in the store, I have started to change my mind. It really isn't comically large, like I expected.

Currently, I am still using my Droid inc. I was pumped about the Motorola razr hd, but what a disappointment. I don't tend to buy new phones every 6 months, and I want the best hardware I can get. So far, the Note 2 is the only thing turning my head.

Personally, I don't care if I have to wait. I want the bugs worked out, before I buy.

Are you referring to the Note 2? If so, what bugs?
 
This may not mean anything, but my expected ship date just changed from "by 11/27/12" to "Not available at this time."

Huh? Are we talking about same phone? Have had mine since att launch and absolutely zero "bugs". Unless you count being awesome a bug.

Since it still shows my order as received and in process, I am hoping it means that the date is not available because it is being changed to an earlier date.
 
Seven more days until we get our devices! I'm getting super stoked for it :)

I read in an article that the verzion version will ship with the latest jellybean which would be 4.1.2? Is that correct or they blowing smoke?

That's why you have a Stylus :p. I have a feeling I'm going to get into fights with my bf because I'll pay more attention to my phone lol. Too bad no one else around me sees how amazing this phone is, there's no one to talk to about it :(

Fights? Puleeze...you're armed with the S-Pen. Poke him with it. That'll make him leave you and phone alone. :D
 
Lol morpeee. My gf was an android convert ever since our galaxy nexii last year. She loves her phone but I kinda wish it was a more solid model for her to have started on. Stock experience is great but the radios on VZW blow on our phones.

4.2 is actually the latest version out now...would be great if we get it on our Notes...
 
Played with the DNA today...
Really nice phone, nice display, nice form factor. I think it all beats the Note 2 personally, but bummer on the memory and battery. Also, many of the apps had a back bar on them. Guess it's because nothing is ready for true HD?
Anyway, where is my NOTE VZW?? Sheish.

I personally think the ONLY thing it has on the GNII is the fact is has 1080p display.............though who really needs a 1080p display on a 5" phone? thats it! I dont see any other advantages to go with the DNA over the GNII not to mention I am not a fan of HTC at all ever since the incredible. I returned the incrdible within a week of purchasing it. I Liked nothing about it all! That is enough for me to never purchase a HTC phone again.
