Samsung GALAXY Note II now available from three UK carriers

Samsung's recent video highlighted the larger screen on the sequel

Back in September, we told you that the Samsung GALAXY Note II would launch in the U.K. on October 1st. Well as certain as the calendar flipped over to October on Monday, three carriers in the region have announced availability of the phablet, Vodafone, Three and O2. Each carrier has its own pricing options. For example, on Three, the Samsung GALAXY Note II will cost you 69 GBP ($111.35 USD) when you purchase a monthly plan costing 34 GBP ($54.87 USD) or 36 GBP ($58.10). If you choose a Pay-as-you-go plan, the device will cost 499.99 GBP ($806.88 USD). O2 and Vodafone have not revealed their pricing information yet.

In the U.S., Samsung is going to introduce the Samsung GALAXY Note II at an event in New York City on October 24th. The excitement is building for the phablet and a Samsung produced video that displayed some of the new features on the device like multiwindow and Air View has raised that excitement level a little bit higher.

The Samsung GALAXY Note II with it’s massive 5.55″ Super AMOLED HD display helps to unleash your creative side by letting you discover information faster, capture ideas, and express them more efficiently.

Additionally when you’re using the 8MP camera you can snap multiple shots and the Galaxy Note II will choose the best one for you.

Available in marble white and titanium grey, the super-fast Samsung Galaxy Note II comes with a powerful 1.6GHz quad-core processor and because the Galaxy Note II is HSPA+ compatible, you’re able to enjoy faster internet speeds and quicker downloads.

The expectations and excitements keeps on getting higher and higher. I badly needed this device, the hardware is excellent, and the softwares are so awesome. It's one of a kind device, I bet other phone manufacturers will hardly compete with this beast.. Its feature rich phablet, unlike apple nothing innovative in their latest iPhone. I'm sure apple will do everything to stop from smashing it's iPhone sales.

Definitely this will be my next gadget...
