If you like the Nexus 4, why do you care about others' opinion?

I have both. The n4's Achilles heel is the glass back. You need to treat it with kid gloves. Don't bother with the 8 gig though, get the 16.
Also, $475 total (n4 8 gig is$300)is to cheap for the note. The note 2 is $700, you are getting lowballed big time, unless your note is in crappy condition.

I think tmo has the N4 for sale 50 bucks through Feb 18th... problem is for that price, you might as well have both (considering the 475 offer)... I would like it but wouldnt love it and with the G Pro, Goggle X phone, M7, GS IV, and even GN III all worth saving up for... id be hard pressed not to:
A) Sit back and enjoy what I have now
B) settle for, hardly any upgrade in a few areas, while at the same time losing out on the battery life, screen real estate, potentially samsung 4.2 official support, etc.
Considering I can flash CM10.1 and have basically the same thing too...

If I were to make the trade:
N4 has to be clean, 100% plain and simple
300 extra would be the very least, depending on the accessories, as I have already paid for plenty of accessories that would be worthless to me, therefore included in any deal (70+ for otterbox defender alone)
Also would want verified stock backups of everything (chances are they have done some rooting, flashing, etc just like I have)
Even with all this, I really still would question what id be gaining in the end, this note is just amazing

The reason why I say 300 is because I know I can get a new note 2 for roughly that right now and wouldnt mind adding a line to have both (but would then keep all my accessories)

If it were me, I would have accepted this, maybe $250, since I would have thrown in the impossible to find wcp 700 wireless charger.

the biggest problem with the nexus is that theres no way to add more storage space to it so youll get around 10gb usable if you get the 16gb and the screen brightness on the note 2 can be easily fixed by a little app called a brighter note

And to think, there is going to be an octa core processor with KLP or even better within 6 to 8 months... personally I think id just rather start saving whatever is deemed the GNII killer

If you want an N4 I would say $200 on top of a BNIB 16gb N4. You're just selling yourself short tho, when LTE drops in a few months you are gong to be kicking yourself. The fragile glass and locked storage of the N4 deterred me big time, not to mention the horrific battery life that curses all LG devices. I would keep the Note 2, the N4 is back in stock everywhere and prices are dropping left and right. The Note 2 will still be worth 450-500 in 6 months, the N4 goes for $300 all day on my local craigslist.

I second this, that's too much, his Note 2 is used as well.
I have found deals on craigslist that have people trading their GS3 for Note 2's plus $100 cash.
The Note 2 is not much of an upgrade honestly, sure it has the quad core CPU, larger screen, the stylus and such, but it's not much over the GS3 IMO.
If you can get him to bump it down to $100-150 cash, then I think it would be worth it.
If his is not rooted and yours is, use it as a bargaining chip.
I'm with Spartan on this one...
Yes, you do get 2 extra cores (Same Speed), little bigger screen and a "magical" stylus, but with all that brings faster battery drain as well.
Also, don't forget to use cases, screen protectors and such as extra bargaining chips.
Good Luck Brother

i read the title of your thread, and immediately this question came to my head.... "why?"
meaning why is your friend a drug addict trying to squeeze every penny off you to feed his addiction for a smaller device that does everything the note does.... except dual view. except that.
also, hate to say it, the note 2 is FUGLY....... freaking-huge-and-ugly
it is already gigantic. hope you have big pockets.
it is heavy. pretty much say goodnight if you drop that thing without a case.
oh ok yeah put a case on it!!!.... hope you have even bigger pockets.
sorry, just not an appealing device to me compared to what the s3 is and does. like somebody else mentioned, hardly an updrade... besides that s4 and and 300 class GPU...
if you are PURELY looking for hardware updrade, then tell him the s3 plus 100... both devices are used. there is no reason to give him a $300 device + $200 cash.
sounds like he doesn't like the product he is trying to sell you, to be quite honest.
BOOOOMMM!!!! -cb out... rofl
Short answer, 250 plus the s3 is way too much in my mind. I I wouldn't give more than 75 plus the s3. But then again I love my s3 and prolly wouldn't trade at all.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
Pointless. Enjoy the S3 and save your money for the S4
Well long story short, I didn't go through with the trade. Thought about it day and I just couldn't justify giving my GS3 with a stack of cash on top of it for the Note 2. He actually got some guy to trade him a Note 1 and $250 for the Note 2 on CL. O well...
Thanks again for the advice everyone. A "Thanks" will be added to all! Haha

S3 vs. Nexus 4

Thought I'd share my thoughts on the N4 vs. the S3
I bought my wife a Nexus 4... if I liked it, I planned on selling my S3 and getting another one for myself.
That way we could share accessories, car docks, etc... there would be some benefit to having the same exact phone.
Anyway... her Nexus 4 was delivered yesterday and I'm not sure that I like it any better than the S3.
The N4 seems bulkier and while the N4 does have a slightly higher resolution than the S3, some of that real estate is used for the soft buttons home, back and recent apps.
So when you have them side by side it looks like the S3's screen is bigger on a smaller device.
The play store is sold out of N4s right now anyway, so I don't really have a choice.
I think once CM10.1 (or any AOSP 4.2 based ROM) is stable there'd be no reason to go from the S3 to the N4 (until 4.3 comes out and you have that 3 to 4 month lag).
Also, my S3 has 32GB and a micro sd card slot.
Ok?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk
What do you mean, ok? It's the general section. It's alright he didn't ask a question good point FunkyELF. That's how I feel about it too. The difference isn't worth the switch. Just hold on to your S3 until the S4 haha I wonder if they'll get the flex screen stuff working in time for that. I'm so excited for tech in 2013. Happy NEW YEAR!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35174070#post35174070
There are many things that I don't like hardware wise about the nexus phones, I used to own the nexus one and I was very very happy with it until I lost it, but the new models don't appeal to me like the original did... too bad other android phones get updates only if you're lucky :/
I almost bought an N4 over the S3 until I heard about no wifi calling on the N4 through T-mobile. That plus the lack of expandable storage and glass back of the N4 pushed me towards the S3 and I haven't regretted my purchase at all. Dropped a 64gb Micro-SD in the S3, installed Nova Launcher and BAM..Samsung knows how to make a great phone. I still hate touch-wiz, but any launcher of choice fixes that rather quickly. I really wanted the N4 until I tried the S3 + Nova Launcher.
Same here buddy. I got my gf a N4 and I compared it with my s3. to tell you the truth I figure why would I want a nexus4? If I flash CM on my s3 would be better. The only thing I liked about the n4 is the hardware with the back glass. But Im happy with my s3 and not going to get me a n4.
I agree with you the s3 seems to have more space on the screen.
By the way my gf is getting tired of the n4 she doesnt want to root. So there is no way I can fix what she wants. She says that some apps like bank of america and cnn dont work properly, she hates the fact of not having adobe (even thought i told her I'll put it on and she dont want to, she says that if it was taking off it was for a reason.) Another thing she doesnt like is the speed of the phone browser wise. But anyways I like my s3
Message to the OP.
AOKP 01/03/13 is stable as any ROM I've ran. I've yet to find a bug and I've been stress testing all day. S3 is better, and if u want stock aosp android, the 4.2.1 ROMS are coming along nicely and aokp feels comple

Thanks for this post, when I read the title I was afraid it was another " should I upgrade" thread. Nice to hear from somebody who is able to compare them side by side.
Funny how no one here on the S3 forums seem to mention the price of the N4 as an advantage.

How is the price an advantage, there are plenty of places where you can get the s3 cheaper than the n4.

Well unless you are on the value plan. Then your price is 500+ $$. That's what drove me to get a gnex prior to this phone. I paid only 250 for it when I paid 529 fory gs2. I paid 549 for this phone and laying it in installments. The nexus four is half that price. So yes it is an advantage.

It's not an advantage to get something that's gonna suck when the real s4 comes out.
It's like calling an HTC hero a g2
That "thing" is just to trick people who can't wait for the real s4.
Also Google wants to prove they can put out phones by themselves. Which they can't. Lord knows I wish they could.
We need to let the companies know we aren't Isheep.

Well comparing a phone that is actually sold to a theoretical phone "s4" is not a comparison at all. I do think that Google has put out good nexus devices bit obviously not everyone likes what they put out, hence why people choose the s3 or other devices . Those people want SD card support, etc. When I owned a gnex I actually felt at peace knowing I'd be running g the latest and wouldn't have to be refreshing xda forums hoping for a good rom to run. There are reasons I'm on the sgs3 and not in the gnez but its not because it wasn't an awesome phone , but because the features it offered were not as beneficial as what I get from an s3. (WiFi calling, SD card, increased in call volume, media volume. ) I am not going for the "s4." Because Samsung is also towing us along like sheep. Yes I said it. How many of you actually will keep your s3 longer than 1 year? They only care about competing with iPhone.

Lmao "fake" S4...
Google wasn't trying to make an S4, or to even compete with the next generation of the Galaxy line; they wanted to make a high end Nexus device with a low price point so they can gain a higher userbase in their ecosystem rather than giving Apple a chance to herd more people into their's.
It's really not about which is the better device, the S3 or the N4, but rather which device is more suitable. I love the S3 because of its screen size, microSD slot, and the screen saturation. On the other hand, I'd jump at the chance to try out a Nexus 4 because it's pure vanilla with a sharper screen, pure black slate at the front with no branding or logos, and the build quality looks to be able to provide a very premium feel.
That's actually a good point.
I still like girls staring at my screen size

Funny thing is, for those that don't pay attention, TMO followed up the $50/per "online deal" with a "free" deal the following weekend...
Yes, I would've still had to come up with the same $300 plus tax up front, but instead of only getting the $150 rebate (had I waited a few days) I would be getting $300 back (mail-in rebate), therefore only paying TAX!!!
If that is (hijacking?) "another's" post, or "flaunting" how rich "$150" makes "me" then yes, I guess, "I'm guilty"

That's exactly what I was thinking. Plus I have two upgrades coming in Oct anyways. I honestly wanted to trade for the S4 but I saw that offer and just thought the value was higher for two Optimus G than one Note. I could off them, get the S4 and probably have some cash to spare.

I want something different now. Also I might not go Note 3. My main reason to drop Note now is I have difficulties handling it with just one hand. Almost dropped this badboy tryna text while carrying groceries with the other hand. I love the phone and tried to adjust but it's not going well. Certain spots of the screen I can't reach unless I'm doing two handed operation.

You know you can speak your text messages through the voice option on the keyboard. I just did this right now to compose a response to your thread.

That is a very good deal but I don't know if I can see myself without my note . . . I've gotten used to its size and other phones don't feel right in my hand. But if you need something smaller by all means go for it. Just have them checked by a sprint tech to ensure you aren't getting a pair of lemons.
My bad chuku, I didnt mean to quote you.

I get what your saying. I do love this phone and I'm honestly scared I might regret it. I called the guy up to get better pix at different angles and now he keeps texting me too see if we are going through with it. Also we doing the exchange at sprint so if I go through with it they both getting checked on the spot

Coming from the note 2 you won't like the lgog much I had one and battery life is a downright joke. The processor is a bit snapper but not much, the screen is gorgeous though. But if you want to sell the pair to get the s4 I get it. I was tempted by the S4 but I'll hold out for note 3 instead as it will have the same guts but a bit more powerful with inch larger screen than s4. My whole point is don't be rushed. Have them check for water damage and most importantly CHECK ESN.

What you guys think, fair deal or what? I'm only considering it because although I love my Note I get frustrated with how it feels during one handed operation.. Small hands here lol. Also I could replace my sisters busted up Evo 3D or maybe even sell both for like 400 a piece and get S4 off contract..

No really because it will have full 1920 X 1080 resolution and it will have inferred so it can replace your T.V. remote.
I am expecting the Note 3 to have the S4 International guts. The Sprint S4 essentially has the same guts as our Note 2. I would like the S4 for one reason, easier to fit into my pocket and keep away from the kiddo lol. With that said, I will probably find someone to trade my Note 2 with for there S4. May add a 50 $ bump haha.

Opposite way. Instead of pinching go the other way.

Sg3 vs Sgs4

It's the sgs4 that much better to our sgs3. I'd like to hear some opinions?

Not enough to drop big bucks when you can just upgrade when the s5 rolls around. The s3 is still a beast of a phone with plenty to offer, even more so now with multiwindow, so I would just stick with it. At least that is what I am going to do

Maybe it would be more suitable posting in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192611
Plus, if you search around xda there are tons of topics on gs3 vs gs4.

Everything this guy said. I'm happy with my s3. Plus I just got into the rooting scene a month and half ago.
Yeah, I'll wait for the S5.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I think it is worth upgrading, at least for me personally, since I had the s3 & my upgrade since Dec.1080HD 5" display, 13mp camera (for family pics), bigger stock battery, 4.2.2 out of the box & more. Besides, the google edition is around the corner so you can always grab that. Or the Note 3 when it comes out.
The point is, there's always something better. The important thing is for you to be happy with your choice.
There is a sticky for this discussion
