It’s the biggest deal in phablets, and one of the hottest things in smartphones as a whole. We’ve been covering it in editorial and video pieces for a solid week, and now we get to talk about it on the air. On this episode of the Pocketnow Weekly, we’re talking Galaxy Note II.
Of course, that’s not all we’re chatting about on this episode of the podcast. Join us for discussion about last week’s AT&T event in NYC, Samsung’s new Galaxy S III Mini and weird little Galaxy Music, HTC’s future prospects and the Windows Phone 8X versus the Nokia Lumia 920, and the iPhone’s continuing Maps issues and the “purple haze” (non)issue. Also, Brandon Miniman asks what we’d change about the current phablet experience, and Anton D. Nagy tells us what it’s like to be a “waiter,” in the smartphone context.
All that -and some truly awesome listener mail- await you. The various player links are below, so help yourself!
