How to Play and Work with SamSung Galaxy Note II?

SamSung Galaxy Note II

Samsung is currently working on a larger version of its Note for October this year. Multiple sources including GSMArena have reported that they got inside information on the arrival of a new Galaxy Note phablet, which will tout a 5.5-inch display from the original’s 5.3-inch screen.

As per rumors, the new Note, which may be addressed Note 2, will come with many rich features. It will run on Samsung’s new Exynos 4 Quad family of quad core SoC, Google’s upcoming Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and more.

Display screen: As per some sources, the new Note will sport a 5.5-inch Super AMOELD touchscreen. The screen will have a resolution of 1680 x 1050 pixels at an increased 360 ppi. Certainly, the large display will be one of the major showpieces of the handset, if the rumors are true. The current version of the Note has a 5.3-inch display and most other phablets in the market sport just 5-inch displays. But, the new Note is rumored to mount a larger 5.5-inch display.

Connectivity: Without any surprise, the new Note may feature all major connectivity options. Yes, the device will have 4G LTE, EDGE, Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, NFC and others. Chances are high that Samsung may also integrate Beam S and other advanced connectivity features on the Note 2, thus making it a mini computer. The device may only avail GPS possibly with GLNONASS and A-GPS support, say the rumors. Bluetooth 4.0 with USB and USB-on-the-go may be some other specialties of the Note 2.

Camera: There is an argument that the Note 2 will feature a 12-megapixel AF/touch focus rear camera. It can record video at full HD and it may also have video recording and playback features. Some sources report that the Note 2 will come with only an 8-megapixel rear camera. Indeed, there will be a front facing camera for making video calls and chats.


Multimedia and others: Needless to mention, Samsung will prepare the Note 2 with advanced multimedia features. The device will have MHL for AV out and it can capture video at 1080p clarity. An advanced S-pen digitizer and other features can also be expected with the rumored device.

Office: Running Android operating system, there are lots of free office apps for users to installed, such as QuickOfficedocument viewers, flash viewers and etc. If these android apps can't satisfy your requirements on working, try to convert office documents to videos, keeping everything from original files.


Storage: Following the path of the newly launched Galaxy S III, the Note 2 may possibly have a 64GB edition. Along with it, the phablet will feature 16GB and 32GB versions, of course with expandable microSD slots. Yes, users will require large storage on a device with a large display and all modern day features.


New firmware: Certainly, the new Galaxy Note phablet will feature Google’s new Android 4.1 Jelly Bean OS. Google has just announced its new Android version at its I/O conference along with Nexus 7, a 7-inch tablet that will debut the software. Surely, the upcoming Note will preload the new operating system.

Sum-up Apart from rumors, we have no information about a possible Galaxy Note 2. Samsung has never exposed anything about such an upgrade for the Note, which has been an immense success following its launch. Samsung has earlier this year uncovered a 10.1-inch version for the Note series. So we can’t completely refute the chance for a 5.5-inch phablet upgrade for the Note.

Comparison Between Microsoft Surface and Apple iPad

surface and ipad
Microsoft on Monday finally had its Apple moment. It unveiled a family of home-brewed tablets to rival Apple's iPad at an extremely hush-hush event here in Los Angeles shrouded in mystery and speculation. Microsoft is taking a huge leap with a mobile-friendly tablet, built on its new Window 8 operating system, which rolls out this fall.

The Microsoft Surface Pro and RT tablets will be designed in-house. The company is stepping into the tablet market at a critical juncture when growth in PC sales is slowing and consumer interest in iPads is soaring. Even some tablets built on Google's rival Android mobile operating system, such as the Amazon Kindle Fire, are selling strongly.

Microsoft said the smallest Surface tablet is 9.3 millimeters thick and weighs 1.5 pounds, which is similar to Apple's iPad, at 9.4 millimeters thick and 1.44 pounds. The Surface has a 10.6-inch screen compared with the iPad's 9.7-inch screen. Microsoft also emphasized the use of the Surface with a keyboard, a convertible usage model that the company has helped champion and Apple has publicly discounted.

Since the first Microsoft Surface models hasn't been come out until Windows 8 is generally available, we can only get small parts of its specs. And let's compare them with iPad.

Microsoft Surface vs. Apple iPad (released features)
surface and ipad

View Office Documents
Microsoft Office will run perfectly on Surface, depending on its Windows 8 operating system. But iPad can't.
For iPad, iWork can help users to work at it, though It's not free and not strong as Microsoft Office. eg. some animations, embedded audios and videos are not able to be played in Keynote. But there is still some ways to view powerpoint on iPad normally. And, if you need, you can also convert iWork documents to Microsoft Office documents.

Microsoft's Win8 Surface Tablets Are Coming Soon

microsoft surface
Microsoft unveiled the first computer it has ever made on Monday, a tablet called the Surface that comes with a keyboard and other features designed to stand out in a market dominated by Apple Inc. It is a sign of the new tactics the software giant has been forced to embrace as it tries to make up lost ground in the mobile market.

This is a video about Surface Microsoft has released.

Specs
Microsoft showed off the two versions of the Surface. The versions running Windows 8 will run chips from Intel Corp., which supplies chips used in most PCs. The versions running Windows RT will be powered by chips from Nvidia Corp. based on designs from ARM Holdings PLC, a variety of chips widely used in cellphones and tablets.

The Surface has a built-in kickstand and magnetic cover, which also acts as a touch keyboard. Microsoft didn't say whether the device would connect to cellular data networks or would be Wi-Fi only.

Office
Mr. Ballmer and other Microsoft executives repeatedly use the words "no compromises" to describe the tablet computers they envision running Windows 8 and Windows RT—which means that users will be able to use work-oriented tools like Microsoft Word and Excel programs, not just be used for watching movies and surfing the Web.

Price
The Surface will "be priced like comparable tablets," Windows Chief Steve Sinofsky said. Microsoft will sell the tablets itself at Microsoft's handful of retail stores and through some online channels.

"The Surface is a PC, the Surface is a tablet and the Surface is something new that we think people will really love," Mr. Ballmer said in wrapping up the event, which lasted less than one hour.

The first Surface models will arrive when Windows 8 is generally available, which is expected to be in the second half of the year.
