The official design of the "Samsung Galaxy NOTE 2" you say?

Here, I found it:

Quite possible. For this design, the home button is likely in the screen. Therefore going to the 5.5 inch screen doesn't increase device size.

that looks like the smallest bezel I've seen in a phone.Looks really nice. Not sure I like the different radius of curvature between the bottom and top though.

Normally I'd agree with you. But...!

- Samsung's Physical Home + Capacitive Menu/Back isn't that great
- SONY (X10) makes the best buttons
- The Gnex and N9 without front buttons looks great, the iPhone has one button and looks great
- The S PEN will support On-Screen buttons, not the alternatives

PS, the slight curvature on the Galaxy Nexus is a great feature, I wished Samsung would adopt it... it would also help them differentiate themselves from Apple's (amorally) patented design.

other things...

Does samsung ever print logotype on the bottom? No?
Front camera is on the wrong side?
the screen never cover the hole body from side to side?

I doubt I switch from GNote to GNote II...still looking forward to the presentation.

You're right.
I think Samsung's Tweeted that this isn't the Note2. Other's were quick to point out it was a "leak" for the S3.... so pretty much confirmed this isn't it.

Nonetheless, I think putting the SAMSUNG logo on the bottom is a better utilising the space instead of extending the bezel. And the display can't be edge-to-edge but it can be pretty darn close.

I hope the Note2 has some ques from this picture, and comes with specs that are worth upgrading to. Otherwise, I'll stick with rev1 thank you.

I heard samsung can repair new galaxy screens for about 40-60 Euro in some European countries. Anyone know if its possible to send them and where it is? Cant find the information @ samsung.com.

I have broke screen since yesterday :(

I might have to buy a Galaxy Note II :D

Damn that sucks. How did it break?

Is it just the digitizer?
The screen and the digitizer?
SAMOLED Screen only?

Sorry I got no info on that, just Google for it.
Otherwise, send a query to your local Samsung by email or phone. You might be surprised by the response.

Otherwise, go to those Middle-Eastern dodgy phone places. They will try to rip you off, however, they may be able to fix it. Be weary, but they can Unbrick various Hard-bricked devices and change iPhone entire screens so its not impossible.

PS I dropped mine from 1 metre height, but not just "dropped" it, I sort of launched it heavily at the ground. My phone's got an old screen protector and the TPU Kickstand case. It landed on the screen part towards the corner onto solid Tile floor. No damage visual : )
