On the iPhone 5 release date, I decided to buy a Galaxy SIII. Until September 22, I was loyal to apple since the release date of the original iPhone.
Let me just say, The galaxy s3 owns the iPhone in every way. I see why apple suing because their finally beaten. Anyways should I return the galaxy s3 and wait out the note 2. I really like the S pen feature because it would be useful for college or should I wait till black Friday and try to find the galaxy note 10.1 on sale. anyone's opinion would be helpful. I have till October 22 to return the galaxy s3.
Note 2 because it has the features of a phone AND a tablet and it can be held everywhere
The S III is a good choice but if doesnt have tablet features, hope I helped

I forgot to mention that I have really small hands. It already hard enough to hold the SIII. Is the note II that much bigger.

Sorry to say that but the Note 2 is actually bigger :/ but its your opinion to choose

If you want the features of a tablet and phone, then the note 2 would be a great choice. I am considering the note 2 myself, wanting the ability to have my phone and tablet in one device, a 'phablet'.
If you're worried about the size drop by a store and check out the current note. I could be wrong but I believe they are the same size.
I remembered! Why not to buy an S III mini! Its a 4-inch screen phone, 1GHz dual core, 1GB RAM
Isn't that enough for a college guy

Actually, the note 2 is even bigger @ 5.5"
To big for my taste. I couldn't even use the first note @ 5.3" with one hand. Other than that it was nice, like the S pen.
Sent from my SGS III
The new note is bigger as in 5.3" as apposed to 5.5" but the note 2 s not as wide as the original note so that may help with the people that had trouble handling the first one.

Im in same situation as op. My 30 days up on thr 22nd. Also. Ive been trying to find out if note 2 will release before then. If it does, id likely swap. I like the bigger 5.5in. Screen. Would compliment my note 10.1 well. I did just get a 4200mAh Hyperion extended battery for my SG3 though. Loving the sick battery life im getting now. Very hard to kill battery now.
Sg3 is a great phone though. Id still be happy if I keep it. I went from an old 4in. Atrix 4g to 4.8in. Sg3.
I have the s3 but I will be using the hubby's upgrade for the note 2 when it comes out. It will have no problem fitting in my purse and the hubby will be happy with the s3 since he currently has the galaxy s. Can't wait!
I would say get the note 2 if the bigger size isn't an issue. It looks awesome!

Note 2 has significantly lower ppi at 267 according to their leaked specs. I would go with S3 if that's a Deal breaker for you
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
I would say it really would come down to price of what you could get the 10.1 vs what it will cost you to upgrade to the note 2. I would guess you would be paying close to if not full retail being you just got the gs3? The hardware specs between the note 2 and the gs3 are not what i would consider significant, certainly not when compared with the difference between the gs3 and 10.1 tab. As far as the phablet potential goes, there are pleanty of options on the gs3 on the custom rom side of things that would be pretty similar to the note 2. If it were me i would keep the gs3 and go with the tablet, which is going to be more conveinient in a school setting. Just my 2 cents.
I love s3 but I could be a wrong but I believe the note 2us variant has 2 gigs of ram and works with lte with the quad core processor, where the s3 is qualcomm dual core 2 gigs but if u want a phablet/big phone and don't want a regular tablet that would be my pick. But if u have a tablet or are getting one the s3 is big enough for this year lol.

I had same problem ,which one too choose. I went with gs3 its amazing. Like everything. And its still feels like a phone on your hand. I watch a lot of movies on it . Screen is amazing.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
My two cents - I chose the Galaxy S3 because the Note 2 just seemed to be trapped between two worlds to me. I don't even feel comfortable on my Tab 2 7.0 because it's too small to really get anything done on, though it's great as a reader or media player.
They're all great devices, but I feel like my phone and tablet are better off separated.

In my opinion the note is just to big. I would go with the s3 and try to pick up a note 10.1 tab. I love having my phone and a tab so if I want the extra screen size I can switch on over to my tab. But at that same time I can't take it every where as for the note phone you could.
Hope this helps, Dev

Should I get the
- Samsung Galaxy Note 2
- Samsung Galaxy S 3
or
Wait for Galaxy note 3.. or wait for Galaxy S4 ?
I'm not sure when the GN3 and GS4 are coming out.. so I dont know if I even should wait.
I really need and want a phone right now as my other android phone's screen is pretty cracked.
I dont mind the size.. so Idk which one I should get..
Does the Note2 have as much development as the SGS3? I'm into the whole dev kinda thing.. im not here to buy a phone to keep it stock.
-----> I will thank everyone's posts <-------
The Galaxy S4 won't be out for at least several months and the Note 2 is only a couple of months old, so the Note 3 is a way off yet.
As far as development goes, check out the development section of the Note 2 forum, it's very active. Having said that, the stock software on the Note 2 is pretty good, especially if you want to take advantage of the S-Pen.

I am in the same shoes as you... Almost. I currently have an S3 and just bought the Note 2 also. I am contemplating if I should keep the Note 2 and sell the S3 or just return the Note 2 and preserve my upgrade for the S4 or N3.
I don't know why you would want one or the other but let me tell you what motivates me. I want the Fastest phone, best battery life. The Note 2 does that. The thing I didn't count on was actually coming to a conclusion that a 5.5 inch screen wasn't too big.
So it depends what floats your boat.

I had a S2 first before i bought my new note2, all in all it depend on what you wish for. We can answer or decide for you which is better. Thing that you have too keep in mind and ask your self are. 1. Will you be confortable having a big phone?, if not a S3 seems perfectly. My case , everybody seems to have a laugh at my big phone, some like it a lot, others find it just too much. But when i put on a show with it, they are like damnnnn.
The only problem with the note is when you have it, you most likely never would go back to a smaller phone again.you will feel strange having a S3, or 2 in hand.
im coming from the s3 which is a great phone but you wont regret note 2 bro its AWESOME:highfive::highfive:
Got both and whole heartedly recommend the Note 2
Go for the note 2 !! you wont regret it :good::good::good:
Coming from my s2 which is still very good. The galaxy note 2 is amazing an makes my old phone look slow. Better battery life faster in all aspects download ing etc. Once u use one u won't want to swap. Big or not it still the best phablet on the market.

No. If the leak holds true then the GS4 has got to be the laziest design upgrade, ever.

Still haven't seen a phone announcement that makes me feel compelled to part with money for a new phone. 8 cores are cool but there are still nothing software wise that makes all those cores worth it.

It will all depend on the specs. If it gets wireless charging, way better processor, 2gb ram, 32gb internal memory, same or better battery that's removable and better features plus the ones I currently have then yes I may sell my note 2 for the gs4. But it really has to impress for me to go through the trouble of selling my note 2 and buying the s4 at full retail.

It remains to be seen if the footprint of the phone gets bigger with that extra .4 inches of screen; it may be the same size! That'd be cool. But regardless, the S4 looks boring and it'll be more than 2 years until 4 cores of processing will not get you where you need to be. 8 core phones are something that I completely do not care about, I'd rather they put that effort into better design materials.

Agreed. Although, the iphone 4G to 4GS (or 3G to 3GS) set the precedent for lame/lazy design upgrades. I think Samsung is just following suit.

My Epic 4G died a few days ago and I had an upgrade. I chose the Note 2 over the S4. Battery life, bigger screen (to make up for the loss of my keyboard) and SPen plus other things that I cant put into words sold me. I used both side by side and just loved the Note2. When we get 4.2.2 I think that will make the note 2 even more awesome...IMHO. Now I have TWRP on it and trying out ROMs...Loving the Note 2. :good:

I don't think the megapixels have much to do with low light as the quality of the sensor itself and f.stop and aperture. I'd much rather a lower MP with better sensor and F.stop than all the megapixels in the world.
But i get your point nonetheless.

I thought the same, but many of us came from the Galaxy Note 1 where it was the same difference, 5.3 to 5.5
Alot of it depends on screen quality difference for me, and it would have to be much better for me to pull the trigger on it

I still have the note 1 too. There was a significant difference in software, battery and performance between 1&2. There is not much on the s4 that I can't do on the note 2. I use my 2 for work and a bigger screen would be a benefit. Not saying I won't get the 3 but if the rumours hold true , in my case, there would be no benefit to upgrade. Will see what Sept 4th reveals.

this is the smart thing to do..
I grabbed a note 8.0 a couple of months ago, and it is fantastic; there was a BIG difference between the note 1 and 2, so it made it a worthwhile upgrade; going from the note 2 to the note 3 appears to be nothing more than bragging rights, about having the newest phone.
Until the Note 3 actually comes out, none of these "leaks" have any relevance to most people anyways, so we will just have to wait and see..
I'm happy with my Note 2. The same as I was with my GS2, thus skipping the 3. However, I'm excited to hear about the new software features - I want to see a photo editor that really takes advantage of the digitizer.

I will get the 3 more than likely regardless but I wont get rid of my 2 either as its still an amazing device.

Did you see some of the comments on that article? One guy was disappointed because the screen wasn't "at least" 6.5 inches. Really? That's ridiculous.

I would be surprised if we see 4.3 on our device anytime soon. I bet it will be at least 2014 before we see it.
It makes sense from business standpoint to not upgrade the Note 2 to 4.3 while the Note 3 is out for a bit.
Same reason why the Galaxy S3 was never upgraded to 4.2. They want to heat on the S4 as long as they can.

Ya think? From what I've been reading (rumors) it seems like Samsung will be skipping 4.2 in favor of 4.3 and it sounded like its not far off. Maybe within the next couple of months. It would be nice but what you said makes sense also. I guess time will tell.
Wow that pic really shows how lame an upgrade this is. 6'' would have been the natural progression for note 3. This pic makes me feel even more disappointed.
Let's see what Htc and Sony bring to the table then... After 4 Samsung phones in a row for me they finally disappointed me :/

Well, xperia z ultra is horrendous. Great specs but very unwieldy looking. To much upper and lower bezel. One max looks interesting but buying HTC is as likely for me as buying an iPhone (not in this lifetime). Will wait and see what they show before condemning it for screen size alone.
Sent from my SGH-I317 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Problem for me is that, screen size is pretty much the main thing I would like to improve over my Note 2. The multi windows or floating windows option would be much better on a slightly bigger screen not to mention other apps making it more productive using other apps that can benefit from the added size.
The Z ultra has horrible bezels but I dont mind that much. If it was not for the stupid battery I would be all over it.
HTC...well I had a Tilt 2 once..that was my only HTC so not a big fan but at least it is 6".
Then again, I probably wont have floating windows with those so is all a tough decision but looks maybe I will just keep my Note 2 for now :/

It depends on the CPU/RAM for me, at the moment.
1080 would be a nice increase in resolution, but if you are happy with the note 2 (as many of us are) so far, the note 3 doesn't seem like a big step up from what we got already.
That said, I've got an upgrade coming up in a couple months, on one of my lines. So I could get the note 3 on upgrade and not spend a dime.
But, we don't know the whole picture yet.
If they frack with the internals like they did on the note 1, I'm probably going to skip the note 3. Unless the north american version is top tier, and not cutting corners on slower memory or a cut back CPU, it's going to be a hard sell for note 2 owners like all of us.

You have to remember people wanting the screen to get much bigger are a minority, they have to go the way business tells them. After the looks I get with the note already I can safely say most people already consider it huge, so it makes sense they wouldn't want to push it to the point where they would lose most of their sales. We definitely represent a small minority here

Yeah, I agree with this. Most of the people that wanted a bigger screen are the ones in the rooting and modding community. Everyone else that I have met or know always say "man that's a big phone" or "that's just too big". How unfortunate.
I would have actually preferred to have the phone size reduced without the loss of the screen size, but a slight increase in the screen size with much higher resolution is not bad either. Any larger than the current size would be uncomfortable to carry around. If so, it would be better to buy the Note 8 instead!
