{Review} The AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note – The All In One Fab Tablet
February 20th, 2012 by Christen
Samsung Galaxy Note on AT&T - Available Today!
When I first held the Samsung Galaxy Note in January at CES, the truth is… I wasn’t very impressed. My biggest reservation? The size & comfort factor of the device in my hands. But while using it during NYFW, I have a different perspective and appreciation for this hybrid of a device. Positioned as the “best of both worlds” device, the Samsung Galaxy Note is supposed to fill the gap between large tablets and smartphones. With a 5.3-inch touchscreen, the Note’s size does in fact fit between many tablets and smartphones. But make no mistake, the Note is a phone.
Don't call it a stylus...The Galaxy Note S Pen does much more than what you think...
While using the device during New York Fashion Week – I had the opportunity to test out it’s functionality in a real-world, fast-paced environment. Some of the aspects that I enjoyed using on the device includes, taking photographs, video and the note-taking function using the S-Memo and S pen. With the S-Pen, I was able to quickly jot down notes, edit photos by adding notes as well as cool screen “capturing” functions too.
The Samsung Family: Galaxy Tab 10.1 - Galaxy Note - Galaxy SII
As a well-placed Samsung family member, the Galaxy Note fits nicely when compared with the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and the Samsung SII. The S II is offered with smaller, but still huge, touchscreens of either 4.3 inches or 4.5 inches. Like the S II, the Note’s display uses Samsung’s Super AMOLED technology, and it looks absolutely amazing. As I shared with a fellow blogger, the Note’s 5.3-inch screen is the display that works out beautifully for watching HD-quality movies. (I’d rather view movies on the Galaxy Note than on my iPhone 4S).
The Galaxy Note: Camera and Flash Ready!
The Note, like the S II and the Nexus, has an 8-megapixel/1080p camera with a single LED flash in back and a 2-megapixel front-facing camera for video chatting or photos. Like the S II, the Note features 16-gigabytes of built-in storage and a microSD card slot that can accommodate a card of up to 32-gigabytes of added storage. The Galaxy Note currently runs on Gingerbread and not the newer Android Ice Cream Sandwich, but don’t worry Samsung will release the new OS update will be available by the end of March.
Using the Galaxy Note with one hand? You may want to rethink that idea..
With all the cool features that this device offers, the fact still remains that in addition to being a tablet device, it is also a phone. Making a phone call using the Galaxy Note was not as awkward as I initially thought. TRUE, it is NOT the Samsung SII (a phone that you can easily maneuver with one hand) – but the speed and clarity of the calls on AT&T’s 4G LTE network makes up for it (especially if you’re used to those ‘slower’ networks).
Overall, I enjoyed using the device. The ease & visibility of checking email, online surfing, and using social networks makes it a great device. If you’re not a fan of maneuvering with a larger smartphone for your mobile calls – I’d suggest investing in a stylish bluetooth device to make your Galaxy Note complete.
Available today for $299.99 with at 2-year agreement on AT&T.

AT&T and Samsung Team Up With Fashion Brand rag & bone to Launch the Samsung Galaxy Note
February 15th, 2012 by Christen
Last night at Dream Downtown in NYC – David Neville and Marcus Wainwright of rag & bone hosted the Galaxy Note U.S. launch party during New York Fashion Week. The creative collaboration between the Galaxy Note and rag & bone is a perfect fit as both emphasize inspiration and ease of use whether through fashion or technology. In celebration of the release of the Galaxy Note, rag & bone designers Marcus Wainwright and David Neville have designed a custom case for their partnership with Samsung’s Galaxy Note, available later this month.
“Working with Samsung on this project has been a very exciting process. We are looking forward to the release of the Galaxy Note and to be involved in the launch of such a cool device that merges technology and design,” said Neville and Wainwright of rag & bone.
Celebrities and guests alike enjoyed drinks, h’doeuvres, Valentine’s Day treats as well as doll transformations with the help of the Galaxy Note “Fashion: Take Note Studio Paper Dolls” application. The musical delights of DJ Mia Moretti & Violinist Caitlin Moe with Lady Starlight kept the crowd moving with the live musical performance by Band of Horses.
A great time was had by all, including myself who had the chance to walk the red carpet, perform a quick Samsung Galaxy Note tutorial & snapping photos / autographs using the amazing device.
On February 19th, Samsung Mobile and AT&T will launch the highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy Note, a new type of smartphone. It is the ultimate on-th-go device which consolidates core benefits of a tablet while maintaining smartphone portability and utilizes AT&T’s 4G LTE network.

Purging the purse with Case Mate!
February 7th, 2012 by ChristenIn an attempt to simplify my life, I figured I’d start first by simplifying my bag. (Which makes sense considering the fact that the majority of my life’s contents were totted around for the last three months in a 8lbs hobo bag.)
You could imagine my excitement, when Case Mate delivered one of their fashionable Kayla clutch crossbody designs to my front door. When it comes to downsizing, this clutch is the sheer definition of the word. Measuring at just under 5 inches long and 3 inches wide this fashionable clutch offers the convenience of mobility with with the option of fashionable colorblock style.
Designed to wear on the wrist or cross body with the detachable metallic chain, it’s as versatile as you want it to be. An outer pouch with a magnetic closure secures your device, and makes it easily accessible in a flash. The zip-around compartment fits the essentials for a night out, including credit card slots, ID holder and coin pouch. I was able to fit three credit cards, my ID, metrocard, a set of keys and my favorite lipgloss within the clutch. (Sidenote: The zipper is pretty strong too! I managed to over stuff the clutch without the worry of over extending the zipper.)
Although the universal Kayla Clutch Combo fits most devices, including all iPhones, BlackBerrys, HTC phones and other popular devices, I found it a bit tight-fitting to squeeze my iPhone 4s inside the slot while encased in a phone case of its own. (Sidenote: A naked phone slips in and out of the Kayla Clutch phone pocket a lot easier, for quicker access.)
I loved the thick cross body chain, it fit easily across my body (relieving my shoulders) and when positioned in front I always had immediate access to my phone & clutch contents with ease.
I loved the thick cross body chain, it fit easily across my body (relieving my shoulders) and felt light as a feather!
With a variety of colorblock colors and prices starting at $50, you may want to invest in more than one Kayla clutch to mix and match within your entire wardrobe…it’s worth it! Available at Case-Mate.com.
Super Bowl Fun On The Run With Chevy & Verizon Wireless!
February 2nd, 2012 by ChristenAs a transplant New Yorker, I’ve never really been excited about football, let alone the Super Bowl. Honestly, before this year the only thing that interested me about the big game were the well-publicized television commercials. (Hey, I’m a former ADV major in college and was in the industry for years…what did you expect?) Plesantly, this year seems to be a tiny bit different. With the New York Giants facing the New England Patriots, this is sure to be an exciting game on the field and off!
To add to the Super Bowl fun and excitement Chevy announced a first-of-its-kind app which will allow viewers of Super Bowl XLVI to play trivia, interact with each other via Twitter, participate in polls and possibly win one of 20 Chevrolets or thousands of other prizes. The Chevy Game Time app is available now in the Android Market, the App Store and at chevy.com/gametime. Chances to win begin as soon as the player downloads the Chevy Game Time app with instant win opportunities. In addition, players will also receive a unique license plate number. If their plate appears during a Chevrolet advertisement during the game or online, they win a vehicle. While watching the Super Bowl, players can answer trivia questions or polls relating to the football game, teams, commercials and other related events. The cars up for grabs are: A Chevrolet Corvette GS Convertible 4LT, (6) Sonic 2LZs, six Cruze LTZs, (3) Silverado 1500s, aCamaro 2SS, aCamaro 2SS Convertible, and (2) Chevy Volts. Just in case you don’t win one of those vehicles, don’t worry: you can still win one of thousands of prizes from Bridgestone, Motorola, the NFL, Papa John’s, or Sirius XM.
Not at home to watch the big game, don’t worry – Verizon has you covered!
For the first time ever the Super Bowl will be streamed live online and only to smartphones and tablets on the Verizon Wireless network. You no longer have to worry that you’ll miss the New York Giant’s action at Indianapolis’ Lucas Oil Stadium if you’re not near a TV. By downloading the Verizon NFL Mobile app, you will have access to a live stream of the game, the latest news, highlights and stats. The Super Bowl stream will even include replays of the popular ads and include additional camera angles.
It looks like I’m gonna have tons of fun with my smartphone during Super Bowl Sunday – how about you? Do you have the Verizon NFL mobile app or going to download the Chevy GameTime app? Let us know below!

February 1st, 2012 by Christen
Welp! It’s official! Facebook just filed for its inital public offering (IPO) to the tune of $5 Billion Dollars! Once they raise enough capital to cover everything, it will become one of the biggest tech IPOS of ALL TIME!
