With Mother’s Day right around the corner I’ve been keeping my eye out for great gift ideas. I found one recently that’s sure to bring a smile to the face of any mom.
Samsung Galaxy Note received.
We were sent the Samsung Galaxy Note for review and it is the perfect combination of smartphone and tablet. It’s a great primary device that minimizes the need to switch back-and-forth between phone, tablet, camera, etc. One less thing for us multi-tasking moms to have to do. And it’s so fun too!
The Samsung Galaxy Note offers a number of incredible features including:
- The portability of a smartphone
- The large display of a tablet
- A light and thin design
- A notepad’s free and fun idea capturing
- Core benefits of other mobile devices – 8 megapixel camera front & back options, 1080p video, Music Player, & more.
Doesn’t this sound like a great device? I thought so, that’s why I was excited when it arrived in the mail the other day, just in time for Mother’s Day!
I love the general features mentioned above of the Samsung Galaxy Note as well as the S Pen.
The S Pen is more than a simple stylus. It not only points like a traditional stylus but it also features 256 levels of pressure sensitivity and allows you to do so much more with the Note.
I love how the S Pen tucks away. It’s got a nice slot in back that it fits into to make sure it’s not left behind.
Using the S Pen allows you to use S Memo & S Memo Lite. Both enable you to quickly take notes. With S Memo you can then share those notes on Facebook, Twitter, through Gmail and in any other service you load onto the Galaxy Note.
One of the most fun and handy features of the S Pen is that you can also add your own ideas to anything you see. You can write notes on photos or web pages, you can comment directly on a document, and you can even send screenshots of your family vacation complete with handwritten messages. And you can also send drawings in text messages. How fun is that?!
Also for those of us moms who are swamped with multiple school, sports, and work schedules the S Planner is a smart & intuitive calendar that makes calendar management much easier.
These features of the Samsung Galaxy Note and the S Pen make me wonder how I ever got along without them. Now that I’ve been using them I don’t know that I can ever go back. They are so handy, practical, and fun!
I made a video showcasing the Samsung Galaxy Note and S Pen and the above mentioned features.
Of course that’s not all. I was also excited to learn that the S Pen works with all Android apps. Some apps are even more fun or useful with the S Pen including:
- Draw Something
- Crayon Physics
- Skitch
- Ominisketch
- ComicBook!
- Sketchbook Mobile
- Soonr
- Touchnote
- Touch Retouch
- Polaris Office
I was also pleased to learn that the S Pen can adapt to right- or left-handed use and the keyboard can be optimized for one-handed use. It seems they’ve really thought of everything!
While I love the Samsung Galaxy Note, Dave is a techy at heart and he’s spent a lot of time playing with this device. He even said it’s making him think twice about his iPhone – now that’s saying something!
I’m looking forward to incorporating the Note into my daily life and enjoying it’s time-saving and fun features – that is if I can get it away from Dave long enough!
We both have enjoyed our time with the Samsung Galaxy Note and recommend it to anyone looking for a last minute Mother’s Day gift. It’s an amazing device and one that would have any mom floating on cloud nine this Mother’s Day.
That’s why I’m excited to offer the incredible giveaway below!

I would love to win this prize. My husband and I are not really up to date on the latest electronics and I am now getting itchy to learn.
Oh I want to win!
I really need a smart phone. I have a cell phone, but, as I like to refer to it, it is a dumb phone. It really can’t do much. It doesn’t even have a decent camera. It’s handy to have just to make and receive calls. I’ve seen the ads for the Samsung Galaxy Note, and I love it. I know some people are concerned about its size (being a bit larger than most phones), but I am not – I like the extra screen size for what I hope to be using it for. Thanks so much for a great giveaway.
i would LOVE to win!

I want to win. I love using the newest cell phones out there.
what an awesome phone! I want it! Looking at the pics is making my iPhone think I am cheating on it! I had to put my phone in the other room and check out the pics!
I want to win because my current cell phone is old
What a powerhouse of a phone! Looks awesome, great review, and i would love to have it!
I’d love it!
I would love to have a new phone and this seems like a great one.
I would love to have the galaxy note as a college student it would help a lot. I seen that the galaxy allows you to write documents it would be great to write out my essay so I wouldn’t have to continue using the slow computers at the library
I would love to win this! It’s Perfect
I badly need to win this giveaway because it has everything that i need, perfect for me! LOL. =))))
I want to win because I love the hugs display and the stylist. I watch a lot of media content and I like to draw a lot as a hobby. Galaxy Note is big enough and at the same time it is very portable. Just love this phone!
I want to win this sooo bad :P
My Fiance has been wanting this phone so bad and I would love to be able to give it to him but it is not in the budget right now so I hope win this for him!
I would love to win for my husband, it’ll be very usefull for him, thank you.
i have always wondered where the cut off for two big a phone should be
I would love to win this for my daughter
I would love to have one of these phones w/the s pen. I have a samsung now but the screen is small and I’m constantly hitting the wrong links. I think the pen would come in very handy for working, surfing or just checking email. Thanks for the opportunity to win this.
I’d like to win this phone for my Mom. She finally entered the “smartphone” realm with an old blackberry about 6 months ago, but she always uses my smartphone and has officially said she wants one of her own. This would be PERFECT. She’s starting her own non-profit and all the features this has would make it so much easier for her to manage her professional and personal needs all in one place!
I would love to win this phone because of the pen that comes with it! TY!
As a very busy work-at-home mom who has four schedules to coordinate (mine, my husband’s, and our children’s), I’d absolutely LOVE to have this phone! It would be a great upgrade from my current phone, and a nice little toy to play with during my rare moments of downtime.
I’ve always been curious about those phones with pens. I LOVE it! I love that you can use it for apps as well.
I’d love to use this, or give it to my sons to use.
This would be great to have on the go and to use with my son for his reluctant writing. Thanks for the opportunities.
I’d love to win!
I would love to win!
