What is your main purpose for purchase? does screen quality matter?

Why are these two even ditectly compared? One is a 7" tablet, the other is a phone. So what are you looking for? A tablet or a phone?

One is a phone, one is a tablet. Pointless question really.

You will be forever updated with the nexus

One is a phone, one is a tablet phone if you get the 3G version like I did. It replaced my SGS2. I had the same decision to make. The number one question to ask yourself then is if you need a device in your POCKET all day to be contacted on. The answer for my life currently, is no. My tab goes from home to my car to my office desk. I also carry it in my jacket pocket when I must (like when I'm in town without my wife and may need to be contacted) but for practicality reasons I'm murse shopping for when summer comes around.
A good test I did myself is see if you have a way or mind carrying a book or notepad of similar size for a week. It made no impact on my life, so I got the tab. I completely understand this doesn't work for a lot of people though, you just need to find out what your needs are (pro/con list to the rescue!).
ps, there are other things to consider too of course. The Nexus has a better camera and direct OS updates from the mother land. Everything else as far as I'm concerned goes towards a 3g Tab 7.7.
To each his own!

Look like you want a combination phone and tablet I think. That's the reason why you make that comparison.
If you have a phone you would like to get a Galaxy tab 7.7 then. If you dont have a phone I would suggest you the galaxy nexus. Or you might think obout galaxy NOTE. It's very unconvenient to use tab 7.7 as a phone.
I have a HTC sensation XE and a tablet 7.7. If i only have to choose one i would like to get galaxy NOTE. It's a 5.3 inches phone.

Wait until the official announcement of the Galaxy S3, the Nexus will be about $150 cheaper then as it will be a forgotten phone when that beast comes out.

[Q] Which Android tab should I buy? galaxy tab or note?

Hi not sure if im in the right place however im in the market to buy an Android Tab, i own an ipad 3 but my wife wants a Samsung Tab and im unsure which to go for, does anyone have any suggestion?
She specificly wants a Samsung but im unsure of the difference between the Note and the Tab2 any help would be appreciated.

Note. Tab 2 is like Tab without LED Flash.

Tab 2 would be a much better option.

And why would Tab 2 be a better option? I have tried the tab 2 over a period of time and i must say that compared to the Note 10.1 it sucks, big time!
I have a N8000 and its easily the best tablet i ever touched. I have owned several tabs (Transformer,Folio, Vega, GT-P7500 and some more) and some are good but nothing compares to the Note 10.1.

You must be trolling! Anybody would prefer a quad core processor, two gigabytes of ram, and a five megapixel camera over basically the same specs of the tab 10.1 that the tab 2 10.1 has.

Neither one of them.
About the iPad, I don't even want to talk about it or any other iBullshett from Crapple. If you are one of the Apple fanboys, by all means please buy it and get out of here.
And now the Galaxy Tab. I have one and I wouldn't recommend anyone else to buy it. Talk about specs, Galaxy Tab isn't the best tablet out there, in fact it only has a dual-core 1 GHz processor, 1 GB RAM and very poor screen resolution which lead to poor performances and speed.
But all that still doesn't annoy me as much as Samsung's lack of proper support for 3rd party development. ICS has been release to the public almost a year ago and here we are still desperately waiting. Sure you can flash some custom ROMs to have a taste of it, but thing is, none of those ROMs has a fully functional camera due to the lack of the required driver which Samsung doesn't want to release. The same thing is happening to the Galaxy S3 now, it might take years before S3 users can get the Project Butter (which has already been launched) to their phone. But this is kinda offtopic so I don't want to talk much about it. All I want to say is: due to Samsung's crappy support, stay away from its products.
What I'd recommend you for now is Google's Nexus 7. It's Google's very own tablet so you can be sure that you'll always be up to date.

I'll advice you to go with ipad 3.
I've my tab and my friend has ipad.
Comparing both.... Ipad is way better than 10.1
Incase you want android, go for nexus 7,note 10.1, or Asus infinity pad

I don't know what some of these guys are talking about but my tab 10.1 works great for me, even being almost 2 year old technology. I love this tab almost as much as my s3, almost
Anyway, here's a video breakdown of the 2 side by side to give you an idea of what you're looking at:

In my opinion, iPads are toys. Great for entertainment but if you want something that is close to a lap or desktop replacement get a Tab. Ignore Browy. The Tab 10.1 does NOT have "very poor resolution" or performance. I updated to ICS and it's plenty speedy, and there are lots of custom ROMs and tweeks to enhance it even more. something iPads will never have.

Listen to Kishorsidu and Browy. I agree with what they say. Don't buy a Galaxy Tab 10.1 it's too old. It was a good tablet when it was first released, but technology has moved on, and there are much better devices out there whether you want Android or Apple.

If you ask it this way, ipad 3, for sure! 10.1 is ****ing slow and old, and fw support is weak(official and xda)
I know there are android fanboys around that will argue against any apple product no matter what. I find this stupid and fanboyant!
I've been through Symbian, Symbian UIQ, windows mobile 5, 6, 6.5 , iOS, android, dos3.3- dos6, windows 3.11, NT, 95, 98, XP, 7, beos, os/2, all sorts of linuxes starting with slackware 3.2.
What you learn in the end is: there is no best, superior super duper ultra os. It all depends on your needs, what you expect and like!
So, go to the store and compare, read reviews and decide.
Also note, android like any linux product is a beta( even the "stable" versions). Its for people that like fiddling with stuff. This is not a bad thing! I like doing this from time to time.
If, on the other hand, you need something that just works, without being constantly kicked, pushed, rushed and fixed you might like the ipad. I dont say that iOS has no flaws and bugs, what I say is that in general, the things that apple promised, work.
Also, note that all apple devices get at least 3 years of official updates. Most android devices get forgotten in oblivion by their makers in about an year and your only hope is xda!
P.S. This is not anti-android, anti xda post! I respect all xda devs for what they are doing and I like android as a concept! I'm just expressing my view on the current situation!
regards

samsung galaxy tab 10.1 is still good unlike everyone says. you just have to make sure you don't screw with it too much installing custom roms and whatnot. i have had mine for a year and it's still amazing fast considering the fact that it's loaded with a pile of apps. don't exclude it from your choices.

this rom is amazing. get it.

The right device depends largely on what you want to do with it, and whether you're invested in either ecosystem. If you've already got a library of music/books/movies, etc. via iTunes, then the iPad is the choice. The same is true if you're invested in Google's ecosystem.
However, in terms of Android tablets, I wouldn't recommend the Galaxy Tab 10.1 (unless you're on a tight budget, because one can be had fairly cheaply)...and I say that as someone who owns one. Its not that I dislike it. On the contrary, it really does everything I need it to do. The problem is there are several newer, better tablets out now.
Probably the top 3 I'd consider (not in any order):
ASUS Transformer - Quad core Tegra 3, 1920 x 1200 resolution
Nexus 10 - 1.7 GHz Exynos, 2560 x 1600 resolution, Google reference device will be among the 1st to get updates
Galaxy Note 10.1 - S-Pen functionality is awesome and it has some other great features
You may also want to consider a MS Surface or other Windows 8 tablet.

Its quite an amazing deal alright. Even if you bought it, swapped a line in and cancelled the account it would be cheaper than buying it on Swappa.com. this guy said it here first, though, i believe http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2036150

If the "cheap feel" of the GN10.1 bothered you you are going to REALLY hate the GN2. It is a quality piece of tech but feels very light and plasticky. Honestly you will probably put a case on it anyway so who cares, but its not going to win any "look and feel" awards.
You gotta love Samsung - "Looks like hell, works like heaven".

I'm waiting for the 1 inch Note IV that I can wear like a watch
I don't see the need for a Note 6.5 inch. Too small too take serious notes but too big to carry like a phone. Kind of a nothing burger.

No possible way for 6.5 inch note, unless it replaces or is offset of their 7" tabs.

That somethin we said when the note 1 came out but still people buy it right

Well theres a market for a Note phone, tablet, probably 7" too, but i dunno about holding 6.3" phone to my head, nor 10.1 phone. Tablet sure, but....i understand they think if they can take the bezel away, but not as a phone. We are approaching the limit.

My wife has a NoteII, and it's a great phone. If I could find a practical way to carry it (too big for a belt case) , I would get one in a heartbeat. To me the "look and feel" of NoteII is the same as Note10.1.

Just played with the Note II at the Sprint store. It is big enough to take notes on if you write small.

This is kinda about the note 2. To mods. I am not trying to sell or link to anything here on XDA. I just want some opinions.
So I want to trade my Note 10.1 for a New note 2. Does that seem okay? I know sometimes if people have an available upgrade through their carrier that you could probably get the phone for two or three hundred. So it would be a good deal I think. I think the hardest part will be finding someone that doesn't mind using up their upgrade. Anyway thoughts and commets welcome.
My phone has bit the dust and I dont really have money to use for a phone so thats the only reason for the question

Should this be in another forum? LOL, but anyway, got my note 2, love every moment of it, and now my note 10.1 feels relatively choppy. Hopefully jelly bean (whenever it gets to me officially) will solve it.

Getting a Note II today...Fed Ex can't get here soon enough. I'm also in the market for a tablet and narrowed it down to the Note 10.1 or the Nexus 10. For those of you that have both Notes does it make sense or is it redundant?

Maybe I'm backwards
But I got the galaxy note 10.1 AFTER my galaxy note 2. The galaxy note 2 is AMAZING! It's such a big upgrade to the original note. To be honest I don't really need the tablet but I felt having a bigger screen would be more productive. Im lucky my boyfriend decided to buy this as a Christmas present. The phone is definitely snappier. It just works how it should. Remember everything is optimised probably mostly for the phone . I feel the tablet could be a lot tighter but then again the note 2 does have jellybean. The screen is a lot nicer than the tablet but again higher ppi. If you replace the tablet you might miss the bigger screen to be honest. You can work with it, but it's still small for drawing. Probably note taking will be alright. I'll admit my phone is pretty much deals with everything I need. Definitely the smartest phone I've had.

My boyfriend was actually trying to put me off getting the tablet because he said it's just a bigger version of my phone. However, I've been using it a lot lately because I'm too lazy to use my laptop. I'm going to prove to him I'm going to use the galaxy note 10.1. I have wasn't sceptical about tablets as well but the bigger screen estate really does help. Particularly with split screen, and if I want to read magazines or manga. But it's up to you. I especially got the note because it's so cheap right now :3

Well, the fact there are 2 pages of comments in 2 days should tell you that GN10.1 owners are interested in discussing the GN2 as it relates to the GN10.1. Since they are sister devices this thread makes perfect sense. The mods get that.
With all the garbage repetitive threads in this forum, this one actually makes sense.
---------- Post added at 03:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 PM ----------
Question for those with the Note II and the GN10.1. Do you find the Note II real estate sufficient to take notes on the fly as you can with the GN10.1 or do you have to write so small that it becomes difficult?
It's been hard from me to try this out at the store as all of the Note II's have magnetic anti-theft devices attached which play hell with the pen input.
I suppose I could try writing really small on my GN10.1 to simulate the experience. Also I could write more often in landscape mode which would provide the same basic width as portrait mode with the 10.1.

So what do you guys think is a fair price for the note 10.1? Am trying to get a note 2. Just need some opinions. Thanks. I would rather just trade outright but if I cant i need to know a good price to ask?

Looks like the ones up for auction in eBay are bidding at around $380 for used units.

Worth It?

I know this may be a biased crowd but I was wondering if this tablet is worth $319? I am in the market for a 10'' tablet and I've narrowed it down to a few options that include the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10''. Also is a good tablet? I've read some of the post in this forum and I'm hoping if I do chose to get this tablet that it'll get some custom roms because I am not a fan of touch wiz. So overall what do you guys think of the tablet?

I bought the 8" model of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 and am very happy with it. I have also looked at and priced the 10" tablets and $319 is a very good price for the 10" tablets. I got the 8" tablet because it is a more portable tablet for me and it fits in my purse a lot easier than the bigger tablet.
I hope that this helps you out.

I just bought the 10.1 and I really like it. Size is a matter of pure personal choice though. I already have the Samsung Note 2, so I have a large "phablet" for browsing and needed my Tab to be large enough to do real business (excel, coding etc).
fyi... I also have the Logitech ultrathin folio for the Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 (case and BT keyboard) and it rocks!
