I have purchased note 2 on 28th may 2014 after so much request I made to my father. At that time it was the best mobile samsung released. It has been 2 years since I am using this mobile and I am very happy with the handset. I bought this mobile at 37500 rupees. It is worth that money. Screen has been broken once but after repairing it is still running smooth as butter.
I think it will run for another 4 to 5 years. 2 gb ram is more than enough. I am playing high end games in this mobile and to my surprise it does not heat at all. I can play games for 1 to 2 hours battery life is also good(3000 mah). it is having a quad core processor with 8 mp rear camera and 2 mp front camera.
