Its a lot faster than the original Note, and that was a surprise. I expected a minor increase in speed, but its not minor, its a truly noticeable step up. Also, the footprint seems smaller, and that is in the case. Its longer, but just doesn't feel it, nor appear so, unless side by side in comparison.
One game I have isn't optimised for the Note II, so is very contrasty, but still noticeably faster. Once optimised I expect the contrast levels will return to normal. Am I pleased with it? Definitely. Will I regret not waiting for the other phones due out soon? No. Most new phones come with non-replaceable batteries, and I can't live with that at all.
The screen is also sharper, and more detailed in rendering images and text. I'm not going to recommend it, as one person on here said (when I bought the Note 1, and recommended it) Its Too Big. So I leave it to you good people if you wish to believe me, or the tech guy. No harm, no foul.
