Samsung Galaxy Note II camera review

The Samsung Galaxy Note II comes with an imaging feature set that is very similar to its smaller sister model, the Galaxy S3. Image quality is almost identical too, with good exposure and vibrant colors but a lack of fine detail due to noise reduction. The Note's big screen is great for composing images but at the same time can make handling a little more awkward. The S Pen is useful for note-taking and sketching but with a lack of stylus-optimized apps doesn't give you any advantage when editing your images.
Pros:
  • Large 5.5-inch display for easy shot composing and reviewing
  • Very responsive camera, near-zero lag and quick shot-to-shot times
  • Fast AF
  • Reliable focus and metering
  • Flexible, customizable native camera app
  • Useful low light mode
  • Effective HDR mode
  • Good quality HD video
  • Manual control over ISO and exposure compensation
  • Good array of retouching options in the Gallery app
Cons:
  • Large dimensions can make handling difficult
  • No dedicated physical shutter button (but can be assigned to volume button)
  • Noise reduction tends to hash low contrast detail
  • Soft low-light images
  • Lack of shutter speed indication limits usefulness of manual ISO capability
  • Unreliable white balance when using flash in mixed light situations
