I really wish there was something that could be done with the speed of the note camera too. Guess Ill have to wait and see how the Note 2's camera pans out and decide from there

Hardware issue, the nexus can do zero shutter lag, means take photo to photo, u only need zero second, but note's hardware didnt that good, zero shuuter lag is one of selling point on nexus when it release

I was using the nexus before swapping over to the note and I can vouch that the camera speed on the nexus is very fast. Now if only the note had this feature :laugh:
I have also had the opportunity to test out the camera on the S3 and the features are awesome.

So the problem is in CPU? BUT you allways can save picture in your RAM and then in ROM. as it saves Fast Burst Camera N7000 has 1000Mb of RAM you can take a lot of picture before it run out.

Wasnt Note released after the Gnex? Shouldnt the Note have had a zero shutter lag camera too..

Nexus was released November 17, 2011
The Galaxy Note was announced by Samsung during IFA 2011 in Berlin
Camera should work correct.

I guess the One X has 'zero shutter lag', my gf has it and it's scary quick at taking photos.
The Notes camera is fine for me but I suppose it depends on what your taking pictures of.

This. I take my One X whenever I go to an amusement park or some event where I need to snap super quick pictures of my kids.
I find that my Note with JB Camera+ takes better quality pictures, but the One X beats it hands down for speed.

Speculation : Would you buy a Galaxy note 7 inch -

I was using Gnote for almost an year and recently got nexus 7.
I have nexus 7 with me most of the time and seems that I have almost cut down 80% of using Gnote .
I wish samsung came out with a note 7 inch with phone capability...
This would a perfect device for me...
Anyone in the same boat ???

Since the announce of Note 10.1 i'm scouting the internet to find any rumors on Galaxy Note 7.7 (7.7 rather than 7).
I will almost certainly by a Note device with this screen size (and body - it should be narrowed down coparing to Tab 7.7).
So, YES

Do you use your nexus 7 out of your home?? Can you carry it in your pocket?? For me that's the point.
At home, you are right, nexus 7 would be better.

I would buy 7 or 7.7 inch Note no doubt.

it doesnt fit in my pocket so no I dont want a handbag

Me neither... the borderline on my part personally would be 6"... any phone or phablet more than that.. is an overkill already for a phone... a tablet.. okay but a phone and a tablet.. that's ridiculous already!

Yes. I currently own a 7.7 LTE and this thing is awesome.

Actually I bought a tab 7+ awesome piece of hardware.. Phone calls able and everything tried it as daily phone and its just too big..
Enviado desde mi GT-N7000 usando Tapatalk 2

In a heartbeat. I have the 10.1 tablet and it is just too big to tote around. It's a real sweet tablet. I have always liked the 7 inch size and still reach for my old HTC Evo View first. I would sell my Note phone and also the 10.1 and use an old flip phone for calls.

I used the original galaxy tab for about a month as my main phone due to losing mine at the time. I found it to be usable in most situations. It was actually pocket able even in skinny jeans (at a push). I rarely call so that helped. However a 6" device would be REALLY awesome. I'd get one of them!

For the information of all-Samsung was the first to introduce the Galaxy Tab 7 inch with phone capabilities. I had one and it was simply too big for a phone. The tab 7+ model is still available with features of the note.

Does not support pen. This is one feature that Samsung a leader in note category
Galaxy Note @ mobile

Size bigger than 5.5 inch is difficult to handle as phone
So note 2 will be fine for me.

Lol.. Was awkward... Had to have my hand wide open to be able to put it in my ear and talk.. After some minutes gets heavy.. And it's a pain in the ass to clean the screen every time you finish a conversation because the screen its all over your face..

I would buy a 6" Galaxy Note without blinking an eye.
I was hoping when the Note 2 was announced that it would be 6", but alas!

I'm not sure but I am guessing 6 is the top of normal portability.

I would love to but as it is I have difficulty typing one handed on the 5.3.

Give me a 7" Note with edge-to-edge AMOLED (so smaller than current 7" tablets) + a newer and more powerful Mali/Adreno GPU and i'd kill for it

Yes, but only with phone bezel.
If they put tablet bezel of 2cm, I don't want it.

Overall Impressions

Lots of people have their nexus now. For the rest of us, what are your overall impressions.
Great, good, average, could be better. You get the idea.
I've heard people complain about the touchscreen sensitivity. It bothers me that USB otg is lacking. Don't know if that will ever be fixed.
I love nexus devices. Had the g nexus, have the nexus 7, and I've loved those. Will I love this device?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

if you loved your gnex, you'll love the n4. its basically the same phone but faster & smoother. the screen is nice (better than the gnex) but imo not as great as the HOX. touch response is great for me, sound is better, all in all its a very nice phone. you won't be disappointed.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

I went from an Atrix 2 -> N4.
Faster, smoother, less buggy. Faster. Snappier. Smoother. Sexier. Smoother.
There's a trend there.

I like what I'm hearing. Wish otg was going to happen

Can someone please take a post a video of the camera app in action. Not of a video, but video of pictures being taken. I'm interested in the camera action/quickness. With or without flash, etc.

Note 2 to Nexus 4?

Dropping Sprint (have given them 3yrs to "fix" coverage in my area) and my Note 2. Going to T-Mobile and a Nexus 4. Anyone gone from a note 2 to a nexus 4?

I've went from a N4 to a note 2 and then back to my N4 . Both great devices the note is just to big
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

I did the same as the guy above. I bought it about a month ago and really didn't like how AMOLED displayed whites. When comparing displays, I thought the nexus was much better.
Also, I didn't find the spen to be all that useful, although came in handy once or twice. The phones are pretty equal in terms of speed. Battery life is much better on the note, camera is much better on the note, and the display size didn't make it stand out IMO. They have the same resolution so it displayed the same amount of stuff.
I figured the note would be out dated around August when the note 3 comes out and the nexus will continue to be updated for a while.

I just traded my note 2 for the N4 I have now. Couldn't be happier. Even with the drop in specs/screen. I love this damn phone.

Agree, for flashing hoolic like me, I prefer Nexxus 4 the awesome device ..

I just feel its so much more comfortable to use. I used the note 2 for a week straight to see if I could get used to it but it just didn't feel right . To me the only thing that's great on the note is the battery life.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

I have nevered used a Note before but I'd like to try it. The batter battery life and camera are huge attractions to me. It's just the size that I feel will be too big for me as I have a Nexus 7 already.

Once you go Note, you can't go back. I miss the size of the Note 1's screen and still not used to the Nexus 4 (had it since Dec). The Note 2 basically fixes all the problems of the Note 1, but costs $700. I didn't want to spend that much so I "settled" for a Nexus 4. For the price, the Nexus 4 is worth it, but I would have bought a Note for the same price.

I have had both. I don't understand how someone can say the note 2 has a better camera.
Only pros of note 2 : better battery. S-pen , Case options . Bigger screen & features 'if' that is for you.
Other than that, that's it.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

Nothing quite like some guy with an otterbox defender on a note 2, holding the phone to his ear. It's one of the most ridiculous things to witness. It's kinda like me holding my N7 to my face like I'm making a call. Hilarious.

I used Note 2 for six months and I loved it then sold it and got N4. I miss the Note 2's camera and big screen but N4 is much better looking phone with much professional built quality. I will keep N4 for a while.

I went from a note 1 to an n4 after 3 months. Just couldn't get used to the size of the note. The n4 works much better for me.

I agree I just came from the iPhone 6s plus and the fingerprint scanner was beyond great.

My wife has the Note 5 and between the two, I still like mine better. Its just a better footprint overall.

I've got both. I don't see any difference in performance except when I compared them in Gear VR. The Note 5 was way much smoother for some reason (maybe something dragging down the S7E in the background..?) picture quality is slightly better on S7E but it feels like the Note 5 has slightly larger field of view.
Otherwise it's up to everyone personal preference design-wise.
