A swedish blogger uncovered the 10.1 inch galaxy note promotional materials at the hotel the Samsung reps were staying. There are also giant billboards around Barcelona promoting a 10.1 inch Note. It appears the official announcement will be in the next day or so.

 

I wonder if this giant slab will also function as a phone? :lol:

If this will be fully functional as a phone, I am getting it! Can you imagine the size of the dialer on this thing! No more mis-dialed calls!

 

I'd like to see someone walking around with a 10 inch tablet to their ear, LMAO.

 

Can you imagine, unlimited data on a 10 inch tablet because it is also a phone? That would be awesome!

LMAO, its almost worth the try it and return it policy! Just so we can see the looks on people's faces~

 

But you do have a good point on the unlimited data, that would be nice!

They would almost have to create a new plan for it if it does have voice. Even though you can easily use more data tethering a phone to your computer, no cell carrier wants tablets with unlimited data. It would burn through data like crazy.

That's the truth. Since I've gotten my Prime I've been through almost 3.5 gigs, and I've only had it a week.

 

Most of that is initial setup and extra data required for some games though.

Wow! I hope that's all or mostly WiFi usage...

Yeah, its almost all while on my home or work network. I try to use my cell data as littlevas possible. Regardless of the unlimited state.

Yeah, so I gotta rely on open networks, if I ever bring it out. I have the 3G Tab through Sprint that I take out with me.

 

I was talking to a coworker about it. Pretty much anywhere I go that I would use a tablet vs my phone, has WiFi. Home, work, coffee shop, all have WiFi. I don't see the need to have a monthly plan for a tablet. Now if I had to work in remote areas, then I would see the need for 3G or 4G plan on a tablet, or a tethering plan.

Yeah, there really is no need for a data plan with a Tablet. I have the 2gig plan with Sprint which at the time was the lowest available. I've never gone over a gig. I've been considering going down to the 1gig plan for 19.99$, but know that the second I do it, I'll be running over the limit in no time :P

Using a 10.1" tablet as a phone, you could be the updated version of this guy...

      Does anyone know how well implemented is VoNR in the 5 boroughs. Does anyone use it? I have an iPhone 15 Pro. Does anyone know if T-Mobile is still working on upgrading their network? It seems like the service has gone down. My phone struggles in parts of the Belt Pkwy, and data is slow.

      I come to the US Open men’s semifinals and finals every year, and I’ve never been able to use my T-Mobile phone successfully. Usually AT&T is the top performer—good to hear Verizon has upped their game.

      One sector down, two more to go — — — — —  I was at Arthur Ashe Stadium for the U.S. Open today and the good news is that there is an n25/41 DAS setup throughout USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. From the "boardwalk" to the outdoor concession area, to inside the stadium; you connect to standalone n41 and n25 everywhere via oDAS and iDAS. The bad news is that in the actual stadium it's beyond useless. While I saw strong coverage as indicated by signal bars and I was able to make calls and send texts, there was no data throughput at all. Running a speed test failed 9 out of 10 times. The only time I got a speed test to work was by switching to LTE funnily enough or by using NSA 5G where the test would initiate via LTE and then n41 would kick in giving me ~20Mbps. T-Mobile has so much traffic on their 5G network that now n41 gets bogged down before LTE. That was a first for me! In the stadium in the same area Verizon got 1.2Gbps on mmWave and LTE kept timing out when trying to test it. My Boost line on AT&T got upwards of 150Mbps on C-band and I know they have mmWave deployed as I saw their Nokia mmWave antennas deployed but I was unable to test it. In the outdoor concession area T-Mobile performed well getting over 150Mbps on n41. AT&T in these areas saw over 250Mbps on C-band and I didn't get the opportunity to test Verizon there. It just seems like 140MHz n41 is not enough capacity for the amount of people inside the stadium. Hopefully T-Mobile is considering deploying n258 to all of these stadiums since they now own that mmWave nationwide. It'd make a world of difference in terms of capacity at these venues.

      Looks like the second n41 carrier in Seattle was finally upgraded to 90 MHz recently. No idea why it took so long but at least they finally did it.
