Samsung Galaxy Note II is a clear and unequivocal upgrade compared with its predecessor. It’s now more powerful, lasts even longer, and ships with the best software that Samsung has yet put on an Android device. The Galaxy Note II 1280 x 800 display actually loses a few lines of pixels in the new model, now offering a 1280 x 720 resolution, but Samsung believes the 16:9 aspect ratio and a move away from Pentile technology will be appreciated upgrades for users.
Though it would be fun to watch movies on the hybrid phone, Galaxy Note II plays selected video stuff. Check below for what Galaxy Note II supported video formats:
- Codec: MPEG4, H.263, H.264, VC-1, DivX, WMV7, WMV8, WMV9, VP8
- Format: 3GP(MP4), WMV(ASF), AVI, FLV, MKV, WebM
