    I don't have a Samsung Galaxy Note II (yet) or an iPhone 5. But I have found numerous customer comments out there stating that the Note II is far better than the iPhone 5. They say that the Note II has more features than the iPhone 5 making it more superior. What do you think?

    I also don't have a Galaxy Note II, I saw on the news that the Samsung phone is giving iPhone a run for their money and may just out sell the Apple product. It does look like a nice phone to have. When I upgrade I am thinking about get the Samsung Galaxy. I have never wanted an iPhone.

    Hmm... Samsung definitely is worth the money. On the other hand, the iPhone is too overpriced. Bombarding Samsung with patent suits is not going to revive the declining market share of Apple iPhone. However, I have noticed that having an iPhone is more "prestigious" as compared to the Samsung Galaxy (at least in my area).

    I haven't tried either, but at a glance, seems like Apple leads the charts (and I hate to say that, because I'm an Android user). This blog post numbers a few reviews from popular websites:

    I would definitely recommend the Galaxy Note II. Bigger screen, better processor, more memory, and a ton of software features like widgets, custom homescreen (Putting icons where you want them, unlike the iPhone which sorts the icons so that they are next to each other), running two applications at the same time (say texting and watching a video at the same time) and an included stylus which can be used for drawing, writing notes, etc. If you don't want to have a 5.5 inch screen because it is too big, use the Galaxy SIII, as it has the same features (except for the stylus) with a smaller, yet still pretty big 4.8 inch screen.

    No way the Galaxy is better than the iPhone 5. I believe iPhone is the best phone ever to be built. I don't have an iPhone 5 but all my friends have one and when I tell you it is amazing it is amazing. Hands down the best phone ever.
