my note 1 is brighter than my note 2?

Hi,
Just bought the note 2 but i compared the brightness to the note 1 and note 1 wins.
Is my note 2 defective or is this normal?

Not normal at all, the note 2 is WAY brighter than the original. I have been hearing that some units of the note are lacking the brightness they should have.
My advice? Go and change it for another one.

Does the note 2 have the black clipping the first had

There's a off topic thread for these types of post. I think you make a new thread for unnecessary things imho. WE all know the phone is being announced 2day!!

I don't understand the disappointment with the 5.7" display. What was people expecting. The step up in screen size from the Note to Note 2 was .2". It was only natural for the same to happen between the Note 2 and 3. If the Note 3 had steeped up to 5.9" or higher, then Samsung would have nowhere to go with future variants of the Note. People need to get over it. I wish the screen was bigger, too, but I understand where Samsung is coming from.

Well they want to sell a lot, and keep it from being a niche device that only caters to a very small market.
Obviously they want to keep their numbers up, and there is a limit to which most people are willing to go.
I don't understand all the complaints, I think it looks awesome personally.

Note 2 or nexus 4?

Wich is better for you?

Easy one this..
Nokia 3330,.. Pure 2" black pixel screen on grey background, monophonic ringtones, Numeric keypad for high speed texting..
blows the note 2 right out of the water

Nexus for latest software. If you have a nexus, you'd probably get addicted to mods.
Note 2 for battery life and stability. Since there's not as much mods for the note 2, you'd just be using your phone like a regular person would.

Just wondering why what is best for me is relevant.

Before this thread gets closed I'd like say that I went from a Nexus 4 to a Note 2 and haven't missed the Nexus once.

I own both devices. I use the notes 2 far more than the nexus 4.
Nexus doesn't even have USB on the go. i've been able to transfer data to a usb off my phone with the on the go cable on numerous occasions on the note 2.
Each user is different.
Yes the nexus 4 will get lots of updates, but personally i think it is missing something in terms of experience and i haven't been able to put a finger on it.
i use the s pen rarely but when i do its very easy to use and sometimes fun when messing around with photos.
The camera on the note 2 is better imo. so is the multi window stuff etc etc.
for the price point i would say nexus used to win for me but the note 2 is a great phone and i don't even need to upgrade it for a few years to come (ok until note 4 lol). however i will be flogging the nexus 4 for a nexus 5 when that's out because i'm bored of it already

Note 3 or S5 or wait?

I am eligible for an upgrade and was wanting some input on what others would do. Should I get the S5 or Note 3 or just wait for the Note 4 or S6 if there will be one?

I know I'm waiting for the note 4 or anything later this year.

Def not worth getting the N3 now on contract. Personally I couldn't downgrade to a smaller screen (S5). I might just buy the N3 used. I'm DEFINITELY upgrading to the N4.

I am in the same boat and have decided to just wait on the Note 4. The battery flap on the S5 ruins it for me for some reason.
I already have most all of the Note 3 features on my Note 2 so there is no real reason to upgrade to that one either.

Thanks for your input everyone. I think I'll be waiting for the Note 4 as well. I also don't see myself downgrading to a smaller screen since I've had the Note 2. I kind of like the attention it gets when I pull it out. Cough cough lol

Note 3 or note 4

Idk I think I might keep my note 3 very disappointed Samsung didn't do something different, honestly looks like a s5 with a spen. I think I might honestly be very interested in a iphone6 if they do have a bigger version. What our y'all thought's on the note4?
