I have to agree, I'm one of Samsung's biggest fans and this is just hideous beyond belief, that bezel....

Looks like everything else they make just bigger... To me it's what apple has been doing for years and has been getting smashed for by fanboys... It looks cheap and the design is horrendous, typical SS

okay you make one and let us judge your "original design"

Yes. True. But I guess Samsung wants to completely stay away from Apple-patended-rounded-corner designs.

Also, I think they feel as long as the design is selling, they don't want to change it. As the saying goes -- "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"

With all of Samsung's designs, they are actually good but that design really shouldn't be meant to be overused and it gets boring and annoying after too long. They also look too cheap, except the the Note 2, it doesn't look that cheap to me for some reason even though it looks like a bigger twin to the s3 o.0

performance and features are everything for me.. yeah note 8.0 definitely not a good looking device.. but that's the reason why i never choose nokia wp.. i don't need good looking phone but inferior OS..

inferior OS is your opinion but cheap made products are a fact coming out of SS... I don't expect anything less coming out of Korea though.

If it has touch rejection, it doesn't need that bezel. The iPad Mini has a thin side bezel because it has that, but this isn't even about Apple vs Samsung, because Sammy uses the same technology on the N1 & N2.
