Samsung Galaxy Note Got Benchmarked at IFA 2011

A lot of people has been wondering about the Samsung Galaxy Note, which was announced at IFA last week. Some bloggers from the Greek site Techblog were lucky to run a Quadrant benchmark test on the said device.

The Samsung Galaxy Note ended up with a score of 3,624 compared to 3,152 on the Samsung Galaxy S2. The Galaxy Note is Samsung's "superphone", or bridge device between their smartphones and tablets. It features a dual core 1.4GHz processor. It also comes with a 5.3 inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels and Android 2.3 Gingerbread.

Samsung intends users to use the Note as a primary device. The device itself is relatively small enough to fit in a pocket and bring everywhere but the screen is large enough to do tasks a user would normally do on a tablet.

What makes Galaxy Note diverse, aside from its size, is its capacitive stylus called the S-pen and optimized software which allow users to easily take handwritten notes, annotate pictures and documents, and use the stylus to "clip" graphics to save into a scrapbook-like app. Samsung is said to be releasing their API so that 3rd-party developers can create their own apps optimized for the S-pen.
