[Q] Buying the note 2 or waiting for the s4 - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

im in no kind of rush to buying a new phone but cant decide should a buy the note 2 right now or should i wait for the s4,i'm absolutely loving the concept of the note 2 and all of its features but im just so curious to find out how the s4 is gonna be,and what i saw on the rumour side it could be a epic phone and especially waiting for the new exynos processor

There is always something just around the corner and it is usually not as good as predicted.

agree to this, was going to say how bout note 3 after that s4 released... besides, you never know what tomorrow brings, are you even 100% sure that when s4 released you're still alive (no offense) ... if the budget is there, i'd say go for it, if not, thats another story...

Just buy the Note 2. You're missing out on months of awesomeness if you choose to wait around for the GS4.

Here is how i managed to calm down my hunger for buying every new coming phone;
I wrote down what i need and what they deliver and graded them. 2.5 months ago i was thinking about S3 or G-Nexus after selling my HTC One X which was a pain in the wallet, not a game phone. Then I noticed the 4 core at that moment was not deatly necessary (it's still not) and the software was more important and went for the Note. I love the design of the Galaxy Nexus and the Vanilla advantages but i told myself that it was not gonna grow more space or FM radio or better GPU out of nowhere. On the other hand the Galaxy phones were gonna have the updates eventually. So i crossed out the Nexus. Then the next battle was between S3 + Nexus 7 tablet or Galaxy Note with its S pen and bigger screen. I told myself if i was gonna have a 4 core tablet there would not be need for a more powerfull phone so G-Nexus was enough with a Nexus 7. However Nexus was not enough for what i want under my pocket because i was not gonna carry my tablet everyday with me. So the only choice left for me was Galaxy Note. And i bought it then it was repaced by a new one by the warranty. Lucky me So basically; first find the phones that atratcs you and elect them by calculating your needings.
It is just 4 more days. If it is cathing your eye everytime you see a picture or read an article about the Nexus 4 than wait for it. Once it is on the shops go and compare them. Good luck

Id say Get it. Think that there will always be something new and better in a close future. But right now this is the best for me and its gonna stay like that for a while I guess. I havent encountered any major problems. Yes the screen is big but you'll get used to it very quickly if thats a matter.
What if theres no s4 ? You can still wait and have it cheaper though

I had S2 & i was excited to get the S3 but something held me off, the s3 ram is not different from the s2 & the only thing that attracted me to the note 2 is the ram
My opinion get the note 2 it will not differ that much from future S4.

Would you do this trade for your Nexus?

I know a guy in real life, he is offering me a Galaxy Note in exchange for the Nexus and $100. I am really one the fence. I like the phone, but it might be a bit too large, would you do this deal?

Have both devices. If you can cope with the size its a great day device overall. But Nexus is a Google phone meaning you get updates faster. Note you have to wait for Samsung to release their source

So you would have to pay him $100 to get the Note? No chance. What makes the Note worth $100 more than the Nexus? Samsungs amazing TouchWiz UI or their lazy update procedure?
Phone for phone without any payment could be acceptable for someone who is ok with that.
But then I wouldn't even take the Note if he was paying me $100, so I'm biased.
Nope , don't do it ..
Now if the $100 wasn't in the picture then it would be a decision worth thinking about or if he was giving you the $100 =P
Stick with the Nexus

ive used both and i like the size of the nexus a lot better for a daily.
Wow amazing forum with lightning quick responses
Yes @ above. I would be giving him $100 and my Nexus. It's funny I even though I own the Nexus I already bought another replacement for this phone. This is why I am exploring selling/trading it.

Straight up trade or nothing and that's only if you think you could find use out of the Note. I know quite a few store owners who love it especially for their online sales as they can just take pictures of products and doodle on it and send it out to prospective customer.
My father's colleague, who's a Apple guy, switched to a Note also for simply one reason; He could have the text large enough to use it without his glasses on .
There are use cases for the Note for sure, I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss it like most on here would .
On that note, I wouldn't use one personally as again, it doesn't fit my use cases.
Don't do it, especially if you like rooting and such.
Not sure Samsung ironed out the brick bug, but it's not the device to have if you want to run anything other than stock. Even doing a factory reset was bricking them. Ridiculous.
I wouldn't do it either. Just because something retails for more money doesn't mean it is actually worth more. Then Nexus is a better phone, period.
SGN is a super nice gadjet , but Nexus is the most compatible with android , if it was me , I'll *****slap him with his 100 buks and keep my phone. but this is me, maybe you have a different opinion
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda app-developers app
He should be paying you $100 plus the note to begin with, if you do it not only has he ended up with the better phone but he's robbed you $100 , just because the note retails for more new doesn't mean its the better device, look at the iPhone for example its inferior to the nexus but still costs more.
Keep your Nexus, it's still the backbone of Android.

When i thought to buy a new phone, the first on the line was the Note. So i went to stores do "meet" it. First look, i feel disconfortable by its size and start looking other phones, so i saw the Nexus and it was love at the first sight. When i held it in my hand, i knew that i´ll be my phone.
It fits perfectly.
Today i think that if i bought the Note i was regret. Not only because the size, but the OS updates and customizations.
Keep your Nexus and be happy for the rest of it´s days.
(sorry for the english)
Keep your Gnex and the $$$ , add 99 more and get the nexus7.
So you ll be complete

the galaxy s3 you mean I'm sure, the galaxy 3 is a budget phone..
Iwouldn't even trade for the s3 personally, I love this phone
I have both and if its the ATT version its worth it. The dev support over there isnt bad and once you get used to the size, which I did very quickly, I don't even use the nexus anymore as the screen is so much more vibrant. Just slap on an AOSP rom and it turns the note into a great phone/tablet.

In my opinion the only S3 worht having is the international version as the US versions have been nerfed as they usually are by us carriers.
As to the OP keep your Nexus, I have friends who have the Note and they love it but development on it is nonexistant in comparison to the Nexus, heck my old Vibrant has more development going on right now.

S3 now or waiting for S4?

I am up for a new phone with my provider.
So I am wondering should I get the S3 now or should I wait for the next phone from Samsung.
I read abotu rumors that the S4 might be pulled up to go on sale with the iPhone 5.
Though based on track recrod I doubt to see a S3 successor prior to July 2013 (if not later).
Currently I have a Samsung Infuse (AT&T) and I am quite happy with it.
What are your thoughts?
No way will an S4 be released along side the iPhone 5. It's still a ways off I'm sure. Just get the S3, you won't regret it.

You should always upgrade ASAP when on a subsidized carrier like AT&T. Every month you delay is money down the drain because your current phone is "paid off", yet they don't reduce your monthly bill to reflect that.
Upgrade to the S3, and either sell your old one on ebay, or keep it as a backup.
Had the S2 and kicked the idea around for a bit. Man I'm so glad I went and bought the S3 out right. Sold the S2 on amazon and haven't regretted it once. If the S4 somehow resurrects the lord Jesus Christ back onto earth I'll snag it as well. I'm not really sure what the game plan for Samsung is next year.

Exactly, I had a skyrocket which is not much different from the S3. But I upgraded to the S3 and man what a difference it is in terms of software. Lots of great new things that I couldnt get even with the S3 roms on the skyrocket. Really good decision for me. And just like the other user said, you should get the S3 since your bill doesnt reduce. The S3 had all the features that I wanted in the skyrocket. HD screen and LED notification light. But I just had to get the skyrocket I couldnt stand my iphone anymore.
If you wait for the next greatest and latest thing you'll always end up waiting. When the s4 comes out you can always sell your s3 for some descent change and come within $300 of buying the s4 with no contract more than likely.

That's what I did with my s2, sold it on ebay for 330 after I unlocked it, and bought a brand new s3 for 475. In the end bought an s3 for $145 off contract. I'm up for renewal next March, so the s4 should be right around the corner then.

Get the S3, sell it for the S4. It's the disposable cycle we're all locked into. The phone is honestly freakin sweet though.

Not exactly true, if you are the first line on the account, your upgrades come earlier. For example, I am the first line in our account and get a yearly upgrade because of it. I get the 2-year price for a 1-year contract.
The phone is a great one. Top of the line specs, great size, and thinness make it so much better to hold. My only problem with the phone is the heating and that stupid home button.
Once you get past that though, it's really great!

I went from the Infuse to a S3, its a night and day difference... Put JB on it and its even faster.. Well worth the upgrade.
s3 since day one, will upgrade to iphone september, will get the new nexus device december and s4 april or when ever its released therefore keeping 3 updates a year!
I would get the SIII. The phone is sick and so fast when running JB. It is the best phone ever IMO. You would not regret getting this phone.
I thought I would hate the home button too. After a month with it, however, I really like it. I now wish my tablet had a home button!

Xda members are so savvy! I love all the talk about selling your old phone and paying the difference for the new one. It usually works out to paying less than the $199 new contract price. And when you're actually up for renewal, you actually make money selling the old phone since you dont have to pay full price and the new one is only $199! I've been doing this for years. I never keep a phone too long because its not worth much later. So definitely get the s3, then if you want the iPhone 5 or note 2 or whatever, sell the s3 and buy your next gadget. Waiting two years is for suckers!!!

if you are sick then go to doctor. Don't come here and spread your sickness with your ****ty comments.
@OP: I understand your dilemma, but I think we don't even have any news/leaks about S4..so you should just get S3. As many people said "you won't regret it"
The only dilemma I see is the new snapdragon s4 pro quad with adreno 320 probably hitting in a few months. Either way I'm loving my s3.

[Q] The future of the Galaxy Nexus

Guys, I need a little help from my friends.
I just finished my contract with a mayor carrier who I am not going to give free advertisement and I am looking into the Galaxy Nexus. Everything I have heard about it is great. The one thing that is stopping me from buying one is :
Is there a new GN coming!!! Will I buy one and the next day Google is going to release a new one!!!
I have not been a member of this forum for a long time but from my interactions with members I can honestly say that there is a lot of smart and tech savy people here. I know answering this post will be speculating. but I know somebody here must know something!!!
Come on guys...
I ordered a galaxy nexus this weekend and am worried about the same thing. But they way I look at it even if they announce a new one tonight it will be weeks, if not months before you can even get your hands on one. So yeah it may be worth it to hold out a bit longer but I needed a phone sooner, not later and the galaxy nexus has such a huge scene that I think there will be the latest software for the next couple years. My galaxy nexus should be here tomorrow and I am so stoked to switch over to it and flash cm10 on it.
We haven't even got a hint at the new Nexus. I remember that we all called the Galaxy Nexus the Nexus Prime *long* before it came out. I haven't heard any names floating around for the new Nexus.
I do recommend buying the unlocked Nexus from the Play Store. You will have an unlocked GSM device and no contracts to worry about. The price is good too.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I think no one will know it for sure. We all expect that Google to release the next nexus very soon but no one can guarantee anything. Honestly, I think if you need a phone now and want Nexus go for it. If you don't, you can always wait since we know the next version is coming soon.
I think even if the new phone comes out soon, the nexus will still going to be a good phone. I can see that the only good thing about the new phone is probably LTE support and most likely better camera. It of course will have higher specs for other stuff, but in my opinion, these are the only 2 major improvement of the new phone. The other specs is probably not going to be that huge of a deal
I do think that the next phone will be slightly more expensive since google has such a big success so I guess price is also something worth considering.
I also looking into the Samsung Galaxy S3 vs Galaxy Nexus. I S3 seems like an awesome and fun toy. The small detail is the $600 vs $350 difference in price.

I have a friend that has the s3 to me when I compare the two there isn't much different. Even though the s3 has a better processor the nexus is as smooth as the s3. I guess its all personal preference. It depends whether or not you want touch wis or pure android.

I highly disagree, look at the Nexus 7 and the pricing. The next Nexus will be the same price if not cheaper. As far as a huge success, not really. Most people that buy these devices are geeks like me and you. The average consumer will go and buy the S3 or a low budget phone (android).
I'm excited for the new one because I think Google will get it right this time and my guess is either Sony or Asus will land it.

N4 got backed ordered so got a Note

So I ordered a Nexus 4 on launch day to find out the next day it was placed on back order for 3 weeks. I saw the samsung sale and ordered a Note 2 with 200 rebate and 20 instalment plan. Thinking about completly cancelling my pre order status on N4 since Note should arrive in three days. What do you guys think? Also this is my fith phone this year I think I have an addiction problem. Went from a S2, Att Note unclocked with unstable blaze modem, galaxy nexus and finaly to my current S3.

Yeah I was contemplating real hard about selling the Note 2 and getting me a nexus but after lurking on the nexus forums and all the complaints and the lack of external storage (not to mention it maxes out on 16GB) coupled with non removable battery, it was a good thing i didn't jumped ship.

thtas what i was thinking ive been switching alllot this year cuz i allways want the latest and great but i think maybe the N2 might my device for a good year atleast which i havent keep a phone for a full year like in 3 years. Ive been checking out the N4 and have read about issues but then again a nexus is a nexus and main reason i wanted it was because it allways has the latest like my old GNexus.
Lol I was having the same thoughts untill I saw that smart dock. But than alot is missing in N4 so Note 2 is the best right now.
But I did order 2 N4s gave one to wife overseas and sold one on ebay for 549

The biggest thing about the Note 2 is it does everything that every other phone does, just at different levels. And it does more.
The Nexus 4 and even the HTC DNA do this or that better, but not everything a Note can do. Simply put, the Note 2 is a complete package.
thanks for the input guys, my intial plan before the n4 was releases or leaked was to get n2 as my main device and have a secondary back up smaller phone like a lumina 820 for when i didnt need a big phone. N4 made me rethink my plans. However like i said i just ordered the n2 and anxisouly awainting for it!

with Tmobile only having a $200 ETF, I don't think you have to worry too much about the contract. I got a note 2 this weekend for $50. $200 on top of that is still a $250 note 2- not bad at all.

Hospice care - i normally associate that with only one thing?
I have the S 3 (which I may gift down to a family plan member on an Mt4G) an now the Note 2. I got it since overall it may be the best device out there - the Note pen was an extra. I would be a bit happier if its size was between where it is and the S 3 - it is a pocketful - lol.
I agree with the other poster - it also might keep me away from another new phone for an extended period..
yea that was one of the reason i was debating of geting the n2 because of size. I had the original note and it was pretty weired holding it against ur ear i wonder if the n2 is slighty better since its not as wide.
My buddy ordered n4.. imho.. sucks. Kg blew it again. Not as smooth as note2.. and definitely not as many features

Galaxy Note 4 - Will you upgrade?

It's that time of the year again when new devices are around the corner. I pose a simple question. Will you upgrade to the Note 4.
Most of us, I'm sure, are under contract and most us may have renewed contract once Note 2 came about. (I know I did.) Any who, I've been reading a lot about the Note 4 and it's speculated specs. I must say, I'm impressed. I was going to get the Note 3, but at the time I didn't really want the upgrade, nor needed it for that matter. My phone still works great, but now has a crack on it and the battery doesn't quite last as long. Doing frequent rom changes helps get rid of the clutter... lol.
Final verdict though, I think i will upgrade. :laugh:
probably going to jump ship to windows phone. looking at a 1520 and going to straight talk
Yup. Going to get the note 4. It's a perfect phone for work and if it's got the flex display, I'll be extremely happy.
The gear had made it much better to not pick up the phone all the time to check who's calling or messaging. Can't wait. But have to until december. Oh well great Christmas gift to myself...lol

I like Samsung but their business model lately has been wonky at best with Knox and putting out updates. Not to mention them pulling and Apple move on new devices with a BS upgrade in hardware or software and calling it NEW AND IMPROVED kinda like the Galaxy S4 or the Note 3 just add an S at the end and you're all set.
There is a sticky specifically for upgrading and other phone discussions
Thanks
