My note 4 is defective or something, So i bought me a different phone. but i still use my note 4 as a tablet at home only. I was thinking of selling my note 4 to get a note tablet, are any of the tablets on par?
Ive played with the tab s, and it was great but ive come to really like my spen and multitasking on my note 4. I know note tablets are a bit older than the note 4 but would any of them be a decent replacement?
I too am curious about this. I still use my note but I am one for uniformity and right now I have an lg gpad LTE which is a great size but I got it when I was using an lg g2. Im going to do some research

Hi,
Thinking of selling my Galaxy Note 10.1 and getting a Note II to replace my phone.
ONLY think I'm still concerned about is, what is it like to read digital comics on the Note II? This is something the Note 10.1 does really well, and probably what I would miss most. On my current Galaxy S2 the text in comics is way too small. If I can move to a Note 2 I can potentially ditch the Note 10.1.
So can the Note 2 do comics? What I'm thinking is the Note II has basically the same screen resolution as the Note 10.1 - that's a plus.
But it has a much smaller screen - that's a minus.
What do you think? Anybody read digital comics on this device? Also interested in magazines/books in general.
Lots of comics reader on the play store. .. you can read comics comfortably in the note 2.(awesome Screen)..I also have a note 8 which is better than the note 10.1 for that

How does it compare between reading them on the Note 2 and a tablet? Do you have a strong preference?
Hey,
I read my comics on Note II with Komik reader, and I love it. Obviously screen is not as large as a tablet, there's that - aside from that, you wouldn't mind this at all. In fact, I find it far more comfortable to read comics on Note because of it's weight compared to a tablet. Which is why much prefer using my N2 over my Nexus 7 for reading comics. That's my opinion obviously.
Are there any developers working on custom ROMs for Tab 3 (8" version)?
I'm trying to decide between a Nexus 7 (2013 model), Note 8.0, and Tab 3 8".
Custom ROMs, preferably AOSP based, are very important to me. The Tab 3 has been out for 2 months and there are still no custom ROMs available for the 8" version. Are we likely to see some fully functioning CM or AOSP ROMs anytime soon?
Crickets.....
Well I made a post
Like this yesterday and a developer said they will be porting a stock 4.3 ROM to it soon but I would wait a month because the lg g pad will be coming out and it has some crazy specs
I bought a 8 inch version yesterday, awesome tablet even straight out of the box, but was shocked that theres no custom ROMS for it, is it dead or something?

I would not expect any development for the Tab 3 8.0.. This is just not a Tinker's Tablet..
If ROM's are what you are looking for, you need to return this Tablet.. Pony Up another $100.00 bucks and go for the Note 8.0.. I stood in the store for like 30 minutes holding the Note 8.0 & Tab 3 8.0 side by side comparing everything.. Even though they are both 800 x 1200 Res Screens, Our Tab 3 8.0 Screens are Brighter & Sharper than the Note 8.0 's Screen.. I TRIPLE CHECKED that..
Having just sold my Galaxy Note phone, I knew all about the S-Pen and knew it was something that I would not miss.. so why spend another $100.00 for a Screen that is not as Bright or Sharp as this one? That's why I chose the Tab 3 8.0 I also have the iPad Mini which is an 8 inch screen.. I now feel this is the Perfect Size Screen for a Tablet..
But, You need to choose between the Nexus-7 2013 ( I had one and returned it for the Tab 3 8.0 ) and the Note 8.0.. You will have all the ROM's Pacman, Carbon, Slim, AOSP, AOKP, CM 10.1 to choose from..
But.. You will either give up screen size or dollars for the luxury of running those ROM's..
I just Rooted so I could install a Custom Recovery do Backups and Remove any App I deemed not needed.. I'll play with some Xposed Framework if Launcher Theming gets too boring..

Hahaha. You returned your nexus 7 for a tab 3 8 too? Now we don't need to install auto hide! Bezel buttons FTW.
I actually have both the note 8 and the tab 3 8 right now. I still don't know which I'm going to keep! Pros for the tab are that its lighter and narrower, thus easier to hold when reading. Pros for the note are that the wider bezels make of easier to type on in portrait. The s-pen is a cool toy but ill probably use it 3 times a year. Speed is mostly irrelevant. I don't see a difference for day to day stuff.
I don't know what you're talking about the screens being different. I thought they are literally the same screen.... like the same part from the same factory. Is that not correct?

Hey Rum!
They are suppose to be the same.. but my in store eye test told me quite different.. maybe there are variables that we are not aware of.. But I set them both to full brightness and compared several similar screens.. and it was no contest in my eyes.. The Note 8.0 was good.. but the Tab 3 8.0 was better..
Good Luck in your decision Rumatt.
sad, until now still no Dev for Tab 3 8" and 10", it's more likely they all go for N7 2013.

Waiting for cm team to release a mod. Based on their sources majority of roms will flow out.

Hello, I own Galaxy S2 and Galaxy Note 8.0, but I'm considering getting Note 2 instead of those two I got. Just wondering what is the screen difference between those devices? Some websites appear differently on S2 and Note 8 using mobile agent on both browsers. Even wh3n they are the same there is a lot more stuff on Note 8's screen.
My question is what is Note 2 closer to: S2 or Note 8? Is it huge phone or small tablet? Of course considering what's appearing on screen and hum much is it.

Note 2 is close to a tablet but still a phone. So for me it is at the edge. However, you can not compare it with a S2 it is much bigger and I think it is a great alternative to these 2 devices. Because the S2 is too small as a phone and a 8" is too small as a tablet for me as well. Tablet should be at least 9,7"
Hi Friends,
My note 2 is dying and I have decided to switch to new phone.
Could you please suggest recent good ones?
I was thinking of Nexus 6
Any opinions?
Once Note, forever Note
So go for Note 4, Note Edge or Note 5.

Considering the Nexus 6 price drop, thats probably what I'd pick
But if money is not a concern, why not the Note 4/5 ? The S-pen has its moments. I think I would definitely miss it if/when I switch to a non-Note phone
PS: Note 2 dying ? I dont believe that, unless you broke it or something
My Note II, is almost still as good as new, so I wanted to try something even bigger this time over? so I'm using the Huawei X2 for the last 2 months now with the expectation that will return back to my Note once it's proven that the X2 is too big for daily use, but none of that happened so far?.
So, it looks like Samsung is jumping directly to an S6...

My guess it is going to by hyper-expensive. Happy with my S4 for hopefully the next 5 years (I used a 2014 Note 10.1 for that long).
Really? I still have my note 10 2014 as a backup though considering giving to the nephew as a toy...
Find it a bit slow, these newer phones and tablets have ruined the experience of the older devices...
