While some media outlets questioned the viability of the device due to its 5.3-inch (135-mm) screen (which was, at the time, considered extremely large for a phone), the Note received positive reception for its stylus functionality, the speed of its 1.4 GHz dual-core processor, and the advantages of such a large screen size.
Dok su neke medijske kuće sumnjale u izdrživost uređaja zbog veličine ekrana od (135 mm) 3.5 inča (koja je u to vreme smatrana prilično velika za telefon), Note je dobio pozitivne komentare za funkcionalnost olovke, brzine dual-core procesora od 1.4GHz i prednosti tako velikog ekrana.
