I have been using this phone for last two years and its the best phone in NOTE series. Its best in all specs like camera wise, sound wise, performance wise etc. It doesnt hang and works very smoothly and very easy to use with touch wiz theme.
It has a giant battery which is so cool with this segment.It has typical Samsung style which can be a draw back of this mobile phone otherwise its perfect with this price range.
If you are a NOTE fan and want it in budget then you should go with Samsung NOTE 2.
