Anatomy of a gadget: digging into the filling of Samsung GALAXY Note II
Good evening, Habrazhiteli!
In August of the outgoing year, Samsung Electronics launched the long-awaited flagship in the second generation, simultaneously combining all the best features of the tablet and the form factor of a large smartphone, which created a fundamentally new niche in the mobile device market - GALAXY Note II . Like its predecessor, the novelty was greeted warmly, as evidenced by impressive sales: in the first 37 days of sales, the volume of devices sold amounted to more than 3 million units. Today we would like to show the stuffing of the gadget and tell about its purpose.
1. HD Super AMOLED Touchscreen
The GALAXY Note II screen is a 5.5-inch capacitive touchscreen (multitouch) measuring 141 mm in size with a resolution of 1280x720 (265 ppi) and an optimal aspect ratio of 16: 9.
2. Digitizer
It is a thin metal membrane that creates an electromagnetic field that is sensitive to the movements of the S Pen. Allows the smartphone to capture even the smallest movements of the pen at a distance of 12 mm from the screen, activating specific functions, such as the quick view of the Air View content, for which you do not need to touch the screen with a pen.
3. Holder
Due to the fact that the holder is only 9.4 mm thick, magnesium was used to strengthen it - a lightweight, malleable metal of silver-white color. By the way, magnesium-based alloys are an important structural material in the aviation and automotive industries due to their lightness and strength. In the holder are all the main components of the smartphone. The interior space was further optimized by remodeling individual components, such as the camera and speaker.
3.1. Antenna and speaker
The antenna of the smartphone is designed to catch radio bands in various regions around the world. The device supports the SoundAlive sound enhancement technology, which allows you to optimize the audio stream for a mobile device, select low frequencies and make the sound surround (of course, as much as possible on miniature speakers).
3.2. 8 MP rear camera and 1.9 MP front camera
The main camera located on the rear panel (8 MP, 1080p @ 30fps video) is an autofocus camera with LED flash + BSI sensor. Front camera (1.9 MP) - VT-camera + BSI sensor.

3.3. Proximity sensor
Galaxy Note II is equipped with a proximity sensor, which is located on the front of the smartphone.
3.4. Light sensor
The device is also equipped with a light sensor located on the front of the phone. Both sensors help to effectively consume battery power and save it.
3.5. Headphone jack
The Galaxy Note II has a standard mini-jack headphone jack (3.5 mm).
3.6. Vibrating alert
The vibrating alert in Galaxy Note II has six different options that can be assigned to different contact groups, along with ringtones.
4. Motherboard
There are more than 1000 important components on the motherboard, which together are a sample of Samsung's advanced technologies.
4.1. Chipset
The gadget is equipped with a powerful processor Samsung Exynos 4412 1.6 GHz (4 cores, ARM-Cortex-A9).
4.2. LTE, HSPA +
GALAXY Note II supports many modern network standards: GSM / GPRS / EDGE850 / 900/1800/1900, UMTS (3G) 900/1700/1900/2100, HSPA + with speeds up to 21.6 Mbps and HSUPA with speeds up to 5, 76 Mbps
4.3. Inner memory
In the presence of a slot microSD 16/32 GB.
4.4. Bluetooth / Wi-Fi
Bluetooth 4.0 (with Apt-X Codec support) and WiFi a / b / g / n HT40.
4.5. Gyroscope
The smartphone has a triaxial gyroscope.
4.6. Accelerometer
Also available is a three-axis accelerometer.
5. back cover
The back cover carries integrated GPS and Bluetooth antennas.
6. Battery cover and NFC antenna
Without near-field communication, this is nowhere.
7. S Pen
The S Pen has become longer and easier to use. In addition, everyday tasks are easier and more intuitive thanks to features and applications that support S Pen. Improved features of the S Pen also provide additional opportunities for instant writing ideas and combining handwriting with any digital content directly on the screen of a smartphone.
