Good for you ... Samsung is the best hardware for now
sent from xda-app
device : note2
ROM : cm10.1 nightly

Jump "back"? You did own Note 2 previously then? Why'd you ditch it at all in the first place?
Welcome back anywho

I tried the experia z as well..
Although I loved the crisp screen the battery life was just awful compared to the note. I think I will stick with my new note II for a while and wait until the next generations of hardware.

yes i did but sold it few weeks back as i was getting the xperia z at a tempting price since the seller had just used it for a week but sumhow was missing that bulk handset in my hand hahaha !!!

Yes. Before the note I thought the size was just ridiculous. Now even "big" phones like the s3 and nexus 4 look too small.

It's not really that stupid, xperia Z has pretty damn good specs. Not that i would be tempted, since i love this ultimate phablet.

Actually what we care is the battery life specs dosnt matter cuz it only have a crisp screen
Only if the xperia were to have an octo core and a better battery then I would want it

Actually it's not idiotic, people love to get new phones and I would like to swap it for a week. But I wouldn't have it for a long time since the screen is way to small. But I wouldn't be mad if I got one. As there is much awesome features in Xperia that I like but Samsung doesn't have. But the feature way I think Samsung is better. But I would definitely like to use Xperia Z due to it wouldn't be boring to get another phone to play around with
Also about customisation they got some themes standard. And I think it's sad that Samsung doesn't have that. I like to customize my phone and change the look. HTC is one of those who actually is one step forward but they got too few themes but it changes even the notifications and pull down bar. Sony just change the icons and menu background. But what can we change from Samsung? We need 3rd party apps to change what we want. It's a bit of a shame.
I can't call it idiotic to swap the note ii to Xperia Z it's all about what you want to do with your phone.
So your comment is idiotic no matter what people will one day be tired of their current device but they maybe not be able to change. I'll wait for note iii or ill change to galaxy mega as its a cool phone/tablet

I simply miss all those motion features on xperia z, the one i simply luvd and crave for is swipe the palm to capture screen then the led notification light which shld b pretty standard for a handset ,the one on xperia is pretty tiny and a lil buggy last.but nt the least i find note pretty user friendly.

bought one finally ))

Got to borrow a Z for four days a while back to try out LTE in another city. Atrocious screen (Seriously terrible), poor battery life, bad camera, & broken software. Shame, as I love Sony's industrial design, and their approach to Android skinning is rather nice. Keep wanting them to make something great, they get close at times but the basics are all wrong.
Note keeps on being fantastic.

I remember when I sold my note 1 for HTC One X, that was the worst mistake I have ever made. Since then I have tried the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, Optimus G, Galaxy S 3 and now I'm back on the note 2. All the reviews are saying that the HTC One is the best phone out there right now, but don't let them trick you like they did me with the HTC One X.

From HTC to Samsung

I am a total HTC guy as i am flash junkie.. i am obsessed with huge display phones... seeing Samsung note i am all over it, but still i dont think i can flash like i can do with HTC's...
What do you guys think should i make the jump to samsung or wait for HTC to release a > 5 inch screen phone, is it even under HTC's rumored phone lists...
Well, I saw the Sensation xl, and at 4.7 inch its a beast as well.... And 1,5 ghz....

new galaxy note

hello people...im currently using a galaxy mini...im going to start working in a month and i am about to get a brand new galaxy note come june end...do you guys think its worth it?i mean i have read about it EXTENSIVELY, watched many videos, but have never really come face to face with it...
my usage will be for calling, texting, emails , news , games, presentations and other basic stuff like that...im going for the note coz i LOVE BIG SCREENS...im almost six feet tall and have really big hands...
and oh yeah i really dont mind how weird i might look talking over the note
so with all this in mind can i buy it?
It is an amazing phone, I've had it for 2 weeks, different roms have different battery lives, but the stock one is still very good by default.
So, go for it and come tell us about it!

Before I got my Note I was juggling between the Note and a S2 but went for the Note and I'm so happy that I chose the Note over the S2.
Go for Note. Or if you think screen is a bit big then S3 is to be released soon. That would be my next choice.

I know this sounds like a fanboy comment, but in all honesty, the note 2 is the greatest phone ever. Like what michael Jordan is to basketball.
It has double the battery life (if not more), better screen, much smoother, better SPEN with a working handwriting. I hated the aspect ratio change at first but it's starting to grow on me. Besides, being thinner makes it "alot" easier to hold.
Edit: One more thing, No BLACK CRUSH/CLIPPING

Completely agree wih all of the above. Best phone I've ever had, a nice upgrade from my note1.Ive been using smartphones since the first kyocera phone/palm combination in the early 90s. First phone I've had in last 3-4 years, including a brief iphone stint, that I didnt feel after a couple weeks that I'd entertain an upgrade in 6 mos if something better came along. Really nothing of any significance lacking on this phone.
battery life is insane, performance is stellar, running jellybean, specs to the roof, big a$$ screen, BATTERY LIFE AGAIn cause its really impresive.
totally worthy...
its truly a next gen device.
much better sound.
much better battery life...
grearer screen
an accurate s pen unlike Note 1.
even b8gger screen.
16:9 ratio to make it EASY to hold....
i could just keep going xS
I was going to upgrade for sure from my international note 1 as soon as at&t launched the Note 2, but now that I flashed jellybean the Note 1 feels like a whole new phone! Jellybean in its self is an upgrade! I will try to hold out as long as it can but as everyone here states, it seems the Note 2 is a beast of a phone.... So I guess I'll have to see if I can resist when I actually touch the device! But seriously if you have the international Note 1 definitely try jellybean.... You won't be disappointed!

Wow.. thanks for the reply's... now I really can't wait. I'm using Straight Talk/Att Sim right now in an At&t Note. It's tough knowing I could walk into Tmobile tomorrow and grab one for $650 and unlock it and use it. My only problem is I'm wondering if I'll be better off with the At&t version.. for coverage reasons.. I'll have to check out radio frequency's and how easy it is to unlock the tmobile version. I figure I'll get about 300 for original Note and I'm gonna sell my Nexus 7 since I almost always reach for my Note first, should get 175 or more out of that then it'll only be 150-200 out of pocket! can't wait..

Nice second is the Note 2. I honestly love Samsung as a company they add something new and exciting with each of their new phone. I just wish that they made better build quality. Though i understand they went for a skinny light weight phone and all. I really wanted a solid build like the Nexsus 4 the build quality is Excellent on the nexsus 4. Oh well maybe next phone they will have better build quality. If not HTC here i come haha..
Otherwise this is great news..
Here is a link in English..
and your reason why? like what other phone can beat the s3? xD I Knew it was phone of the year back in 2011!!!! how? IT'S A GALAXY PHONE! pure logic that it would win.

My opinion...
1. Galaxy S3
2. Xperia T (It isn't the most powerful but come on its sexy, and the Xperia UI is much much cleaner than Touchwiz and Sense)
3. One X+ (Sense is horrible, but camera, etc are great on this)

[Q] SO any HTC One owners here?

Anyone considering changing for the Galaxy S4?
I'm a little tempted but dunno if its worth the trade. Like my One but not overly fused on Sense. Anyone in the same boat as me?
Had 4 faulty HTC Ones, s4 replacement coming in 10 days.

i wasn't a big fan of TouchWiz, but since i started working at Samsung, i've come to love the whole TW experience.. it has a LOT of cool features, which are copied in other custom roms, but that cannot compare to the original apps by Samsung..
i agree that HTC has nice hardware, but i have a S4 now and i wouldn't want any other device, it's simply amazing!
3 faulty ones so getting Samsung s4 next week

I was looking at the htc one but seems like build quality issues and some people just dont like blink feed. As pretty as it is, I think I like the samsung form factor better as well as the options for removable battery/sdcard samsung gives you. And that dual shot feature, oh man I got ideas

It's messed up.
Very sad but nothing new. Almost all major corporations engage in shifty practices such as this. However, they do not all get caught.
To give a bit of a perspective as to why I am moving from the one to the s4
I am not a HTC hater yes my last couple of phones have been Samsung but I thought of give HTC a go on my next upgrade and boy do I regret it
I don't regret it because it's HTC because in fact before my sammy days I always bought HTC I hate it because HTC sent out a brand new flagship with major issues
My first one had gone button problems and the camera when video recording was awful it had a high pitched hiss on it
My second had proximity sensor problems , the lights on home and back didn't work and worse still the screen wasn't sealed so white could be seen
The third which broke the camels back and made me change to the s4 on launch had once again home / back button problems
The one is a beautiful device but it's full of qa issues
So to Sammy I go again I'm hoping the s4 is perfect and I wish id waited for the s4

HTC is probably a year from getting sold to another company. I loved my One X, but they hosed the deployment by succumbing to AT&T locking the boot loader and then released the One X+ too soon.
They are circling the drain. Their delays on the One will probably kill them this time, that and once again locking the boot loader on the One on AT&T.
