Having now so the existing 80 EUR expensive multimedia dock have disposed of, I ordered the new dock for Grade 3 for 25 EUR. Yes ... it loads and can be connected to the computer, but: a connection to KIES3 is only possible if I pull the connecting cable from the dock and connect directly with the grade 3.
Actually, a good device but Samsung manages to scare with these unnecessary side scenes the customer ...
Camera - Update: The camera deserves only 2 stars, alas!
Pen: Significantly improved handling and detection - this 5 star
Optics: The grade 3 sees something fancier by the not quite as rounded corners. The "metal frame" gives the look of high-grade and the leather optics ensures the style factor. Here is a good development in perspective
The faster processor ensures a constantly flowing operation. All apps and applications could be transmitted properly. The Menu offers compared to the Note 2 is not much new, unfortunately. Currently outweigh the negative items for me that the regional restriction, regardless of how often I am in Asian climes. Unhappy also again new charging plug: USB 3.0 MicroB, so Multimedia Dock equal in the bin, and amusingly, there are no chargers or docks with this connection. So adapter cable order (there are not in white) and connect them so that you do not always have to take the charger to work.
The pen has become a little more stylish and as a subjective sensation, I mean that it can be written much better.
The note (2) itself deserves 5 stars, with version 3 and the new investment of 700 EUR for one year, I would have expected more. How many have written here, Samsung looks increasingly like Apple, the buyer is the stupid cash cow and will rip you off. Would not surprise me if in 6 months Note 3S appears!
Who has the Note 2, remains! For all the first time to invest in a note, it is fundamentally the right decision, but then better a used Note 2 as a new note. 3
The soaring Samsung does not well, too bad.
Updates will follow after prolonged use.
