I had noted vs I have noted

"I had noted" and "I have noted" are both proper English phrases, but they would be used in dissimilar contexts. "I had noted" is used to talk about something that was noted in the past before another past event, while "I have noted" is used to talk about something that was noted in the past and still has relevance in the present.
