http://gizmodo.com/5676008/hands-on-the-nexus-two-by-samsung

Bah i don't think it's a google phone...they know that nexus owners don't like plastic crap, and want badass cutting edge uber specs with kickass design otherwise they should fire the marketing manager and hire me

I saw the Nexus Two being an HTC Device, with things like;
4 to 4.3 Inch Super AMOLED Display(Or possibly even Retina?)
1Ghz Dual Core Processor
16GB ROM
1GB RAM
3-5MP Front Facing Camera
5-8MP Back Camera
I recall Google stating that the Nexus One was a phone to revolutionize devices. Thats what it did, when the Nexus One launched it had the largest screen, and the fastest processor in any phone to that date. Where is that with the Nexus Two?!

They needed a story, even if the facts are incorrect.
That cant be the Nexus Two.
I'd rather have a MyTouch 4G.

My thoughts exactly. After one day with an N1, I realized just how nice life was away from any Samsung POSI. 6 months later, not one SINGLE complaint. This thing is perfect, and could only improve with next year's technology (screensize/processer etc) today. A Galaxy S model phone, which was available in July would a sick joke.
Desire HD+Duel Processor+Front Camera=Perfect. But I still like the trackball.

Didn't engadget just say that that is a gizmodo mock up?
IMO, this article is sooo full of crap.

good to hear Sammy is working on the Nexus Two. Couple great hardware with software. Damn it's going to blow everything away!

There I fixed it for you

How can samsung call the piece of **** a nexus cause doesnt htc own the nexus name? They made the nexus one. I hope to God this isnt true. I will never own a samsung again

not going to argue with samsung using the best hardware but damn do they love apple's designs or something.
I can't stand that they make the design look like an iphone and touchwiz makes it more like an iphone.
if nexus two looks anything like this, even if it is vanilla android, i'm saving my money for a better looking vanilla android phone.

Can't wait for Nexus Three. lol

I doubt this is real, anyway--a Nexus Two should be, just as the N1 was, ahead of the herd. Certainly not a refresh of an existing model. No way.
Dual-core, Tegra 2 chip, brushed metal unibody, or get the **** out.

Thoughts on the galaxy note.

I thought I was pretty set on getting the galaxy nexus when its released, now I'm also thinking about the galaxy note. Just wondering what others in the community are thinking.

That's my question too. I would really love the stylus for work. I think I would use it all the time, but I am stuck with Sprint for at least the next two years.

I think galaxy note is targeted for specific people.
Personally, I will not buy it, because:
1. it's not nexus (fear of being left behind in terms of updates+features)
2. Too big for my pocket
But I see that it has usefulness that I heard web browsing is so much better due to bigger screen. The bigger screen allows reading, watching and typing better.
About stylus, I think its a gimmick. Unless you have something like iPad size (which still limited that you have to write like you are using a crayon), writing in touch screen is cumbersome.

It's freaking huge. Have you ever held an iphone? Yeah, I'm comparing apples to oranges, but the phone is huge.

The Dell Streak, compared to this, is longer and thicker, but the Note is wider. There are some videos up on YouTube with people putting the Note in their pocket and making calls and it's really not that big. Heck most cordless landline phones are bulkier than the Note.
Also if it gets ICS with the new version of TW that is less inttusive , that would be awesome.

I put a comparison pic of the note and the gnexus and an article up in the rumor thread. Ill find it.

the dell streak5 was the only phone i was willing to leave sprint for... then when my contract was up the streak5 was gone, too ahead of its time... soooo wherever the Note goes, I goes 2... GIMME GIMME GIMME!!!!!

I'll take a Note in white please...kthxbai

I want one so bad but I don't think its coming to the US. if it does it doesn't have a cdma radio so it will go to at&t or t mobile.

Finally motherf***er!

You wants the note
I can tell

i like the Note
its dope its lil big for me i suppose for a phone
i mean the s2 is a 4.5 inch screen
thats even big enough and well
since its fast and responsive i wont use the pen much

It's a Kenny Powers reference: NSFW
But yeah, I really want the Note.

AT&T has had the note for over a month. Used it for 2 weeks...it was OK. Barely fits in the back pocket and made my Epic feel like a toy. AT&T Hspa 4G is the biggest crap going but once LTE is spread out more it may be useable. The CDMA version will be called The Journal and rumored to go to Verizon and maybe Sprint.

Betting on the right horse is a blast.

Had some idle time, went to a local electronics shop.
Browsed through the mega offering of tablets.
Left utterly convinced that the 7.7 still is heaps ahead of anything offered there.
...hadn't swiped the stupid grin out of my face, after arriving home, when I stumbled upon this:

I like my 7.7 better than my nexus 7. You wouldn't think. 7 inches would make much of a difference but it does.

everyone love that... but the current price will be crazy...

I don't necessarily love that.
....It's just that Samsung is clearly the front innovator here.
As soon as they step up product manufacturing quality and get their commercial vector to focus, they will be on their way to absolute "portable communications + media devices" market dominance (...they may need to get someone new to achieve that focus...).
Myself, I am thinking about this:

Flexible is one thing but can a crease be made in the display by accidentally folding it?

My wifi 7.7 finally came in yesterday. Thing is leaps and bounds over the Nexus 7 I had. Screen is absolutely superb and the speakers are great. Best part is I dont have to worry about it falling apart in my hand like that dam Nexus. When I got it out of the box it was on HC but immediately flashed up a message for the jump to ICS. Im really surprised how smooth it runs on ICS. Ive tweaked it to my liking and disabled some of the crap. But all in all im extremely pleased with it.

Considering my N7 was 250 and my 7.7 was only 270 through Verizon with mobile data for $10 a month with no contract plus a way better screen, better build quality, and looks way better totally worth it. Tegra 3 isn't all that. I don't mind the lack of development so much but I really wish samsung would support this like it really should. There are tabs still being released as new with similar hardware specs and have jelly bean and will still get updated. This tab really shouldn't of had HC out of the box when it was released IMO.

In 11 days I will have owned this for 1 year and I am blown away that there is not yet a tablet I would prefer over this one. The Note 8 would be nice, but without the AMOLED screen, I still prefer the 7.7.

It's pretty incredible, isn't it?

I laughed at the advert part of that samsung thing when the guy puts the tab on the table with the flashing lights on it.

[Q] iPhone 6&6+ is sucks :) what you think ?

guys finally i didn't get what s meaning of "bigger than bigger" !!!!
i don wanna make joke but really wht does it mean?

Yeah and now they will have enough screen room to read alot more content in landscape mode....I laughed hard when they introduced that...I was like wtf?....I dont hate but damn....not to mention thier live stream was a disappointment the streamers had to show updated pics of the event...one thing I can say positively about the apple is that thier release dates are much sooner... same month as the presentation. ...

I have to say, Apple usually has great designs, but its new Watch is downright ugly. I also prefer the design of the 5S to the iPhone6. Not that I care so much, Imma buy the Note 4.

they completely miss the innovator (the boss)...
:laugh: I like the tagline,,, Welcome to 2012 LOL

ip6 and 6p are a utter joke, I even know some die hard apple fans who say its meh but yet still say they are getting it. Im like are you serious??
they have also conned the apple fans by not inc a 32gb model so now in the uk this is what you get.
iphone 6:
16gb £549
64gb £619
128gb £699
Literally any 2012 android flagship is better
iphone 6+:
16gb £619
64gb £699
128gb £789
literally any phablet is better, never mind the note 2, 3, 4.

My brother uses iPhone and when I ask him about features he said "it just works".. lol
He also said Android crashes alot. Not sure where he heard that my stock rooted n4 had never " crashed".
I think though the iPhone would be ok if the price was inline with premium android phones. I really like the build quality but the price is insane. The day I go out and spend over $1100 for a phone is the day it will have lady parts.

We all laugh because iPhone 6/6+ finally add things we had in 2012, but in reality I'd say Apple finally caught back up to Android. All the main features of Android are now present in the iPhone 6/6+. I'm shocked that Apple finally gave up Steve Jobs' silly notion that large screens are bad. 4.7" and 5.5" are solid screen size options that cover most people'swishes.
You still have to deal with Apple's closed ecosystem. In terms of phone lockdown, though, since carriers in the US are locking down Android handsets more and more that point becomes less of an issue here in the US.
I'm still primarily considering Note 4 and Nexus X/6/5(2014)/whatever to replace my Note II, but this is finally a new serious contender from Apple.

Considering to buy Note 4. Need Advice

Howdy everyone,
I am planning to buy a Galaxy Note 4 by end of upcoming January. I always used to be an android player (Had Samsung S3, Note 10.1 and HTC One M7) but I bought an iphone 6 plus as I was really curious to get my hands on ios on a bigger display. I like the iphone and how it functions but it is really so simple in a way that makes a raw performance demanding guy like me feels dull and bored. Do you guess a Note 4 is my best buy? Or do you have other recommendations? Thank you.

With any luck Lollipop will be on the Note 4 by then. Could make a fast phone even faster. I think you'll want to see reviews on LP on the Note 4 before you decide.

I've been using nexus devices for the past two to three years and wanted to try a phablet device. Got the Note 4 and I'm loving it. Touchwiz will take a bit of getting used to but once you slap on Google Now launcher, Nova or whatever suits you, most of the in your face stuff goes out of the way. The thing that I'm loving most about the device is the battery and camera. A recent software update from Samsung has increased the battery life and also addressed a lot of the lagginess with Touchwiz. Overall, the experience is smoother and much better. After recently rooting my device, I've been able to get rid of most of the bloat on the device as well. Overall, I think it's a good buy. It is a pricey device though so you might want to weigh your options before making a decision. For me the screen, battery, camera and how a large device like this feels in my hands makes me happy with the decision I made. The build quality on this is the best compared to all the other Note devices that you'd have come across in the past.
