Its pretty crazy big, but I mainly use it for texting and playing on the internet. I always talk with it on speaker phone in my comoany truck and bluetooth in my personal truck or the wifes car so the giant size isnt too big of a deal. Its big but thin so it fits in my back pocket fine. My son loves watching cartoons on it so its working good so far. The battery life is freakin awesome though, easily double what my iphone 4sand probably quadruple(no ****) what my evo had. I wouldve gotten the S3 but the note has almost double the battery life of it and battery life was my top concern this time around.

Battery life better be good, with something that big they have all the room in the world to put a big battery in it. So with it in your back pocket what do you do when you sit down?

Sit down, doesnt crack or anything but I dont have a ghetto booty (sorry to get your hopes up) so it hasnt been a problem. The battery is actually pretty small, probably about the size of my evo. My son watched cartoons for an hour on it streaming from youtube and netflix, and ive been on the internet for about two hours and its stil got 67% battery. My iphone would be dang near dead and my evo woukd be dead by now.

No Ghetto booty.... Damn.... My phone does great with movies, it seems like internet drains the battery the fastest.

I came home from vacation Saturday to my new Galaxy S3 and I'm loving it so far. I like the Note 2 for its capability and such, but it's just too big to carry on me at work. I would have to reconfigure everything on my belt or vest and maybe remove something that may come in handy someday. That really isn't worth it for a moderately better phone IMHO.
