[Q] looking to get a new tablet

I have been reading up on all the new tablets and have narrowed it down to Samsung i believe.
So what i wanted to do is get you guys opinion on which one i should get.......
1) Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1
2) Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1
3) Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0"
4) Google Nexus 10
5) Google Nexus 7

you should first ask yourself, which screen size tablet?
10 inch-
1) Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1
2) Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1
3) Google Nexus 10
7 inch-
1) Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0"
2) Google Nexus 7
after that. ask yourself, keep TouchWiz? if so-
1) Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1
2) Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1
3) Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0"
or ask yourself, stock/vanilla Android? if so-
1) Google Nexus 10
2) Google Nexus 7

Here we go..... yes i understand this is the galaxy S3 forum....... but this is the general section of the forum.
Let me "re-phrase" my question so that people dont TROLL.
I have a GALAXY S3 and would like to know which of the samsung tablets out on the market work best along side it. Does anyone with a GALAXY S3 have a preference to what tablet they use?

i own a Galaxy S3, and a Nexus 7.
but as you can see in my signature, i'm running CM10 on both. thus i like having the stock Android experience.
back to my original reply. if you like TouchWiz that much. get a Samsung one. if you want a stylus, get the Note 10.1. what screen size do you want? what will you be doing with your tablet?
i mainly use my tablet for reading, so i wanted the 7". i used to have an iPad and a Transformer. both were too large.

I am really looking for a tablet so I dont have to pull out the laptop every time i want to check my email (personal an work) or look at facebook.
I have a nook color on MIUI but i am lookig to upgrade to more of an all in one deal........ email, web, games, spreadsheets

none of the above. And btw, those 3 Samsung are terrible. Just go in any Best Buy and try them, they are ALL sluggish.
You should wait for the next wave IMO.

It has nothing to do with our version of the GS3

Very happy with my nexus 7... I had iPhone 4s and iPad.... Got sick of the oversized iPad so I went to staples and looked at the tablets and loved the smoothness and price of the nexus 7... Bought it and returned my iPad $330 in my pocket.... I then fell in love with android and sold my iPhone 4s on CL and bought the S3... Walked away with $450 cash and better devices.

Galaxy sIII s memo on note II

My girlfriends Verizon SIII has a s memo Widget but the note II doesnt but it seems like it Should because of the Spen. So is there a way to get it on my note 2 or is it like Verizon exclusive or s3 exclusive?

First questions go in Q (uestions) & A (nswers)
Second S note is the notes version of S Memo and is designed specifically to work with the S pen
I like to break stuff!

Thank you, mood can delete post now

I just don't understand the thinking of others sometimes, just mind boggling
Hope this helped, haha.

[REQUEST] Tap to wake, slide to lock functionality

So I am new to the Galaxy Note II, coming from a Galaxy Nexus and I am pretty darn happy so far. But, there is ONE thing I miss about my Galaxy Nexus, and that is PGM2!
I will be the first to admit I have no idea where to start on developing this, but I will also be the first to throw down some coin if someone else is able to develop something just like PGM2 for the Galaxy Note II!
It really was the one true must have thing on my Galaxy Nexus. It saves your buttons, which Samsung is known for not having the most reliable.

yes yes that would be a nice feature to have saving hard keys.
Count me in on donation.

+1 would love that too

I have mentioned this to a kernel dev to try and bring pgm2 or s2w to or device

That's awesome! I would gladly pay for the app. I paid 3.99 for PGM2 on the Galaxy Nexus, and I would spend it again for something on the Galaxy Note II without hesitation.

OG Note ii running JDevil

When I clink on the link provided in the OP's post, it tells me the app is compatible with my device, which is Galaxy Note II. Am I missing something?

I must be missing something not seeing Galaxy Note 2 compatibility with app.
In Description
*** ROOTED DEVICES ONLY ***
*** GALAXY NEXUS ONLY ***

Yep, love that app on my Nexus. Wish works on the Note!
I've spoke to the PGM2 developer awhile back, he said he can't do it for Note since he doesn't have the phone. Bummer!!!!
Here's the alternative, wave your hand to turn on/off

Nova Launcher Prime & Tasker
If you have both those apps. You can set nova actions double tap to lauch a tasker task to lock the screen. Works pretty slick to lock and turn off the display....
Still have to push a button to wake. ..

Note 2 V's S4

Hey everyone
anyone any thoughts on this? I have a note 2 and I love it. I am well used to the size and to be honest I don't think I can go to the S4's 5" screen.
Am I or will I be missing out on anything that the S4 has or will the note 2 get all the features in an update.

IR Blaster is the only major thing you're missing out on IMO.

And lte possibly.
Sent from my GT-N7100

the IR blaster as aforementioned and the extra sensors if you care for such

The ir blaster would be a handy little thing to have but I don't feel it would outweigh the extra half inch of real estate.
Any note 2 owners switching to the s4?

I can't even imagine switching from note 2 to S4. In fact I'll be missing out on even more useful options. I really hate how the new layout of the S4's settings menu, it looks outdated and I hope they change that before 4.2.2 is released on the note 2.

Note 2 is way too good , no chance of replacing it with S4 .......Will wait for Note 3 & then decide on replacement.....As of now NOTE 2 ROCKS !!

If the Note 3 is more like the s4 than the Note 2, then I won't bother to upgrade.

I read, that with the update with the new S4 features that came come to the note, the menu on the GN2 is will become like the S4. I hope that is not the case as most reviews of the S4, have nothing positive to say about the menu..

When you hear about 6 inch Full HD (1080p) RGB screen, 4000mAh battery, 32GB internal storage and the slot for the external cards up to 128GB you will upgrade immediately.

Not switching. Note2 does excellent job for me. Might think about change after 4.2.2 is released. ..

@Smokie365
1. Best battery ever on a Samsung smart phone - This is very important to me when I am out and have no access to charging , secondly I like to check my social networking media and love to have lot of widgets and live wallpaper - Try this on a S4 and you will know how bad the battery life is on S4.
2. How can you ever Trade a S-pens capabilities for a S4 ????
3. Instal a customer Kernel and overclock your Note2 to beat S4 performance.
- IR beamer !!! really - are you going to use it ????
- I am still not utilizing 100% of the sensor and motion control on Note 2 , S4 - Iam not sure if will use them all even though they are quite innovative.

And has anyone any idea when it will get some of the features?

The next probable update would be 4.2.2. Date unknown.

Note2 is best.. no need to replace that with s4.. wait for note3 and change it with note3..

Are you guys always using S-PEN?

Do you think S-PEN is the thing that you bought Note 2? I bought my Note 2 for more than one year. I barely not use it until my note got KK with S5 Mod. I used it today for memo but I still think the Note function is complicated. I wrote a memo and I want to make it link with my tomorrow schedule(S planner)but it recognized my hand writing as an several parts.I still not know what I can do with scrapbook. I admit that Note 2 has a lot of function but most of them are not simple. What is your opinion?
