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?

Yes. Its not like iPad 3 to 4. Its a generational change. Everything is better. I used nova as my launcher to put 5x5 grid but otherwise its all stock. One word fantastic. I look at my note 1 and its like looking at my HD2 compared to my Note 1! Battery life is 2x.

Can we use Note 2 SPen on Note1 ?
HI,
Did you try using Note2 S Pen on Note1? Did it work ? I am curious to see if this works on Note 1 (SGH-i717)

While I don't own a Note 2 yet I know the Note 1's stylus will work on the Note II and vice versa since they both use Wacom UD digitizers. I actually use my ThinkPad X61 Tablet PC stylus on my Note 1 perfectly fine.
Yes, both S Pen of Note LTE and Note 2 works on each other.
And about uograde , yes its worth it in every sense ,specially processer and battery.

Good that they work, but the first generation note stylus really sucked. New one is much better.

So I'm loving my S3 but there is one feature I really enjoy on the note 2- Annotating photos. Is there an app that is works like the Note 2 or a flash on this site that will be able to work on the S3?
True I could purchase the Note 2.. however I like my S3 and seeing that many features are ported from device to device I was wondering if that feature is possible on the S3.
Thanks

There are many apps that can do this. My favorite is picsay pro.

So my mom lost her E4GT and I'm due for an upgrade super soon. I'll be passing along my S3 to her and either getting a Note 2 or the S4.
I've done some research on both but would like to hear what you guys have to say without any influence from my already formulated opinions.
I'm with Sprint, the international version and the Nexus 4 are out of the question.
Should I get the Note now or wait a few weeks for the S4?
P.S. Don't worry about my mom, she'll have a Palm Pre and wont be phoneless.
S4 dude.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Meh, the s4 is merely a s3s with miniscule improvements, the note 2 is still more of an upgrade then the s4 imho. Samsung note line of phones stole all the fame and now its like the galaxy s phones are having a tough time catching up lol
Bring on the note 3 already!

It depends on whether u want more processing power (s4) or a bigger screen (note 2).
Sent from my Xperia Ray using xda app-developers app
If you are into photo retouching and artistic stuff go with the Note II. The S-Pen is worth gold! Whatever you do, I would say wait for battery tests on the S4 before you buy. And if you do buy either go for at LEAST the 32gb versions.
I have the note2 and my wife had the S3 and is getting the S4 she wants something in between the note2 and S3 and witch makes the S4 perfect for her. When she gets it ill probably steal it from her for a day or two though

note 2 i love the note 2 i loved the s3 but for some reason i couldn't downsize screens even. plus the s pen is amazing and well be getting the features that the s4 will have so why not get the note 2?
I would get the Note2 bigger screen spen is amazing. Plus like everyone keeps saying we'll have the software soon on are note2 from thw S4 anyway. Yes the S4 has a 1080p display but to me thats not worth not getting the Note2 because it already has most of what the S4 has

Well if you have lotsa money go for it... my note 2 will stay with me for another 2 years

No. Get the note 3.

Was impatiently waiting for the S4 but then I bought a Note2, Funny how life is.
hahaha thank guys for response,wait for KLP release first ..
So, your options are keep the Note 2 or sell it for a phone with a half inch smaller screen and no S Pen? No brainer really .

I use S4 along with Note2, as I work at Samsung's R&D. It's really worth to wait and switch
... nothing !
Lol dont get mad bro,i just ask huhu
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
See no reason to switch to S4 myself. Except for the full HD screen, but at the risk of losing a .5'', SPen and awesome 3100mAH battery. There are more features, but most s/w features will come to N2 eventually, so I don't think it's compelling enough to make a switch. If I wanted FHD display that bad, I might have switched to HTC One or something.
Love my Note 2 and sticking with it at least until N3 comes out.
note 3 or sony togari ... s4? nahhh

Exactly what I did. I replaced my S3 and became a happy owner of a Note 2. You cant compare them. The Note 2 is way better.
The only thing I would buy next is a Note 3.
If you don't care for the S-pen, you can consider the new LG Optimus G Pro looks like a beast.
I'm waiting for the Note 3 and then I'll decide which one I'm getting next.
not bad ..

As above. Samsung already said we would get most of them. Other than that the note 3 in October will be both bigger and better than the s4. Personally I'm done, I've been through so many phones over the last three years and I'm tried of constantly updating. The Note 2 is the first one that I can say I'm truly satisfied with. I'll only be updating every two years from here on in which means note 4 for me.

I like the looks if the new HTC but as it's far from offering the Note 2 features, I stick with my Note

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.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
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. ..

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..
