The Samsung Galaxy Note II, successor to the famously huge Galaxy Note, ups the ante with an even larger 5.5-inch display. Like other Samsung Note products, it's built with stylus use in mind and has several OS enhancements to support it. Additionally, the Note II's hardware has been redesigned to resemble that of the Galaxy S III.
