I am currently using gs2 and in love with the galaxy note 's massive screen.
One of the main reason I love gs2 was the extremely snappy user experience, no matter how many apps I open. It never slows down.
One thing I worrying about the galaxy note is that has the same snappy response like gs2 does? I read on some user reports on internet. Some says the galaxy note sometimes laggy and feel sluggish when you open few resources hog apps. Maybe not enough rams?
any input from experience user who switched from gs2 to galaxy note are appreciated. thanks

I had the same problem. Yes the Note was slower than the S2, that is mainly caused by a huge pile of bloatware that slows the cpu down. I would buy the phone, root it and install a good custom rom (KL3) and remove a lot of unnessary apps with root explorer. That really makes a world of difference, it`s faster now than the S2

galaxy note has the same amount of ram, it just doesnt seem to maintain the same amount of free ram, at least not on the stock ROM.
when i first booted up my galaxy S2, it had 550mb free ram. when i first booted up my note, it only had 300mb or so of free ram. swapping launchers helps it a little.
but for the most part, a few apps will be fine. launch too many and gingerbread will manage the ram by dumping some of the unused apps.

alternatively, wait for ICS in q1 2012, and take advantage of the fact that it lets you freeze bloatware without rooting.
I got em both and yes the GNote was a little sluggish with the stock software. But with the stock KL3 its a huge difference for me. Its now as snappy as my S2.
The only thing i notice is that scrolling in some settings lists and such can be choppy sometimes. And between homescreens if you have loads of widgets and shortcuts. But with ICS i think this device will be flawless (if you have big pockets )
I have had my note for about a week. I have updated to the latest ota update (KKA) and installed all my programs from my GS2.
I have no noticeable lag. Scrolling is fast and fluid and it seems as snappy as the GS2.
Thanks you all : ). I ordered my Galaxy Note !!
waiting for the delivery . I think it gonna be awesome hehe~
Hello guys,
I have been using Note 1, S3, Note 2 - with the ICS on Note 1 I felt that the system went a bit laggy (using Custom ROMs solve the issue so far); I felt that 1GB Ram on S3 was not enough as the system by default already use ~600-700Mb or so, manageable. With 2GB on the Note 2 I felt that it was pretty enough, under heavy loading it took like ~1.4-1.5 GB Ram, sometimes the system micro lag a bit - no major problems tho.
We all know that Samsung loves to throw all kind of features, their apps etc into the device; the TouchWiz is cool but I believe it's optimized.
Keeping all this in mind , with the new apps/features in the S4 (SS Health, Air stuffs etc etc) I wonder if 2GB is enough? Also that the new Android OS the 5.x version should be around the corners - although the sources confirm that even S3 (with its 1GB Ram) will have the Key Lime Pie 5.x but I believe it would be not smooth and breezing fly - just like the case of Note 1 with ICS.
With the rumors saying Note 3 will going to have 3GB of Ram this really confuses me. I'm in decision b/w S4 and Note 3 - I was really happy with the Note 2 (gave to my daddy) but it's a little bit big; the S3 was okay but the 1GB was shortage.
Yup, it's plenty, no need to worry about that. Laggyness is an inherent problem with touchwiz since the first GS, was also a problem with my GS2 and a friend has mentioned it's been an issue on the S3. I expect the S4's UI to be lag free but wouldn't be surprised if there are some hiccups. Lag can be due to keeping the voice feature on, or lack of optimization. Either way, gaming and other tasks wont suffer, so don't worry.

Thank you very much,
I have tried HTC , Sony and the Nexus line with weaker specs but the system seems to be optimized way more (esp. the pure Android Nexus line).
I will be super happy if in the S4 they solve the wake-home-button-lag due to the CPU (Exynos 4) specific; that is so irritating
In any case I'm going to root the device as I always do =))
Well I used s3 for 4 months and sold it just bcz of the lag issues you have mentioned. In s3 I used to freeze or remove every bloat app so I can get free ram, it sill disnt solve the issue. I got note 2 and all the lag issues gone, I wonder how you even faced micro lag, I never faced any. Now my ram is full of bloat, I still get only 200-250mb free ram but I never faced any lag.

err, i think you guys have a common misconception. Free RAM = wasted RAM. on Linux, it is better for the ram to be full rather than to make it not fill up at all. Lags are always due to background apps continuously running.

really the more ram that caches apps and games the better, quicker and uses less battery.. so even if a phone has 10gb ram it should use as much as possible as android manage the memory very good on its own.
Yup
Seems every manufacturer wants to sell a new device every year, so... they put less than is possible on their top of the line devices to assure that next year the hw would be too old and stupid sheeps (us) would feel the need to update.
I have a 5 year laptop (in which Ive put just more rams) which does it's job extremely well. But smartphones needs to be upgraded every year.
No manufacturer wants customizable hardware so that the end user could build himself a smartphone that would last ~4 years.
For example if the SGS3 had 2 gbs RAM it wouldn't need upgrading, and if the S4 had 3 or more gbs RAM wouldnt need an upgrade next year.
Regarding that rumor that Motorola would allow us to build a phone to our specification is simply dumb. Android can't support so many configurations, and certaintly that manufacturer would destroy the market by simply stopping the need for hw upgrading every year (similar to pc market)
So... 2 gb is not enough..
Nothing is enough in this market.
If you want all the goodies Android and various apps will bring in the future you will certaintly need to upgrade your S4 next year.
I've done a decent amount of research and it seems like 3GB of RAM would be unnecessary but there's rumors out there pointing at a possible 3GB of RAM but it seems like the 2GB is pretty set in stone. Anything can happen. But, in my opinion, 2GB is enough for the phone... just not my personal peace-of-mind.

To be honest I'm all for the S4, better screen, better camera... - hell yeah!
But here in my place , I have info about Note 3 will be having 3Gb ram - basically, Note is a larger Galaxy S with bigger screen, clocked CPU/GPU and have some S-pen features; and having an additional 1GB of RAM:
Note 2 > S3 for 1GB Ram
Note 3 > S4 expected for 1GB Ram again
Note 1 = S2 with 1GB Ram but with ICS Official Loaded I'm sure that S2 runs faster and smoother than Note 1.

Of course, but if that who would buy the S5 next year?
(There is no app/game who can get the S3 to sweat, the only notable and needed difference between the S4 and S3 being more ram and bigger battery. Does that worth $400-500?)

Actually American GS III does have 2gb ram... But anyway I honestly think 2gb of ram is plenty for anything we need on a phone for now at least. I guess it'll depend on how efficient the os/touchwiz runs. But i *think* iirc at least the gs iv ram is significantly better. But anyway if I can get a real upgrade and not a pay it off throughout two years kinda deal I'll probably pick up the S IV and sell my gs iii

my mom has a note 3 and i have a s5 duos
... tell you mate my battery is much much much better on s5 it lasts about 5 hours on screen time in 24 hours gaming music wifi all sort of this
while she gets 24% at the end of the day while she uses wifi only and calls
reasons for s5 :
-waterproof (for me its good so i can walk in rain so fine )
-size is handy u can use one hand for full use
-camera is better on s5
-screen resolution is better (not that better)
reasons for note 3 :
-bigger screen
-more internal storage 32 gigs instead of 16

Thank you my friend for ur reply. And i have noted ur points, but one important thing is RAM of both devices. Note 3 has 3gb and S5 has 2gb. Does this 1gb less in S5 cause any issue with multi taksing? I like specs of both phones, the only thing i dislike about s5 is less ram, and the only thing i dislike about note 3 is its big size.

I bought my S5 at the end of January so it's been around a month now. If by multitasking you mean opening a few programs (NOT GAMES) and expect them to still be loaded when you go back to them then yes, the S5's 2GB RAM is enough (I always have at least 300MB free). But if by multitasking you mean opening tens of programs and playing high end games at the same time, then I think even the Note 3's 3GB won't be enough for you
I too thought that 2GB is pure **** for a 2014 phone seeing as a variant of the S3 had 2GB, but I was wrong. Phone flies through whatever I throw at it
That's not a bug. That's the normal behavior of TW since 5.1.1 (ar least for S6 and S6 Edge).
The last version of TW is eating a lot of RAM and to prevent lags and freezes (that were occuring on S6 with 5.0), Samsung has decided to systematically kills apps in background to free RAM.

The s6 has had that since 5.0. Atleast mine did
And yes sites are stating Samsung is purposely killing apps to keep the phone speedy.
What's the point of 4gbs tho if you still can multitask because everything has to reload

Touchwiz. Other lollipop based devices are not aggressively killing apps. Nexus 6 you can routinely have a good dozen or more apps in the background and they won't refresh.
Likewise even Moto X has around 8-9 and has half the ram of the Note 5 and 50% less than the S6
HTC M9 - similar story to the Nexus 6 regarding backgrounded apps
Sony Z3 - same story again.
M9 is running a heavily skinned OS and Z3 has a less heavily but still skinned take too. Yet none of these devices have ram management issues and all of them are performing better in multitasking and are running Lollipop
This is Touchwiz. What's more unfathomable is why with the Note 5 it can't run any more apps in the background than the S6/S6E despite that extra 1Gb of ram. Again it's another case of Samsungs excellent hardware and muscle power being heavily compromised by a skin that whilst given a lick of paint - is under the hood still a terrible bloated by legacy code, utter resource hog.
The disappointment is simple, imagine how fast these devices would be running a different manufacturers skin or stock. It's a shame Samsung have made no attempts here to fix this, and as they HAVE NOT ACKNOWLEDGED the Ram issue officially in any shape or form - to presume they are going to ever fix it is just wishful thinking unfortunately.
It's obvious at this time that they have modified the default behaviour. It's not like the RAM is fully utilized, there is free RAM but the background processes are removed memory. Only thing I can think about - battery. And right now I can think that this is completely intentional from Samsung. The default android behaviour is to keep them in memory, so they should have changed it. Don't think there will be a 'fix' as such from Samsung.
Did some searching and apparently there is a partial fix for S6 at least using build.prop editing.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s6/general/s6-ram-management-discussion-t3128229
There are other threads saying that similar changes in a Note 4 running 5.0 also work. So, as long as the device can be rooted, there does seem to be some relief. Is that right or am I missing something.
Still not sure that I want to get a Note 5. Would appreciate any comments.
I own the S6 Edge and the two things I absolutely hate about it are the battery life and the terrible memory management. So I figured I would get the Note 5 because it has a little bigger battery, so should be some what better in that regard and I thought surely, as long as the S6 has been out, and the Note 5 comes with 4gb of ram, surely they got the memory management issue figured out?? Seriously Samsung?? I don't want to get into the IOSvsAndroid debate cause I love Android and Google but I also own an iPhone 6 Plus that has a whopping 1gb of ram and I can have several apps open in the background, switch back and forth between them and not have to reload any of them. I know nobody really cares what I do or my opinion but I honestly think I'm done with Samsung for awhile and that sucks because they make amazing hardware.

This is precisely why, on my Note 4, I've remained on KitKat.
What is the use of heavy multi-tasking if, every time you go back to a previously opened app, it reboots? How do you copy from email for example, to a document that you're preparing to scan and send, and refer to information on the web at the same time?
May as well buy any other phone out there, what's the difference? What's the point of the Note Series?

That's why I try to use multiple Windows's at once on my s6. That's the only way to be productive with this bug. Not only that but browsing on chrome is worth than on my iPhone that has 1gb of ram.
I love the Galaxy phones, but I'm not sure if it's worth the upgrade right now.
I remember reading something about the Edge Plus having a fix for the ram, off of sammobile awhile back
Insane
Currently on the OnePlus... Really debating whether I should go for the Note 5. Seriously changing my mind now.
Is it simply a matter of the app reloading when you open it? Or is there a specific limit of how many apps can be in the background before the issue presents itself?

It's clearly intentional - and Samsung NEVER acknowledged the ram issue on the S6 / S6 Edge. I know I was one of the original authors of the threads that sparked the reports. Samsung posted a generic Facebook response to the issue but it was so generic it was a cut and paste answer for anyone having an issue with software. This was picked up by same media who reported on our threads as 'an official acknowledgment' however it was not anything of the such.
Samsung has not mentioned anything about the ram issue officially - and the fact it persists in the Note 5 / S6 Edge Plus despite an additional 1gb - means it's unlikely it will ever be fixed.

The issue I've had with the S6 Edge is reloading the app when you open it. It's gotten a tiny bit better with an update but still no where near acceptable for an $800 flagship that has 3gb of ram in the S6 and 4gb for the Note 5 & S6 Edge+

I could not believe my eyes when I saw this. The Note 5 is a spec power house with an ocat-core processor, and 4GB of ram while the Iphone 6 has a measly dual core processor and 1gb of ram.
in another video with the S6 vs the iPhone 6, the S6 had the advantage. the S6 and N5 have the same specs with the N5 having a gig more memory. but where the issue lies, and like he mentions is how the N5 fully closes apps down. i noticed in some other thread on here that the N5 aggressively closes recent apps whereas the S6 does not. maybe it's to help with the battery life. but i assume the test would prove differently if the N5 did not fully close out apps as was mentioned.

The S6 has a more aggressive RAM profile than the Note 5. It is more in terms of optimization. iOS while lacking in features in Android, is extremely optimized for their hardware which is something that is difficult for Android which is on devices with a variety of hardware. By optimizing the most out of their hardware, they can achieve these results., something hard for Android to do with fragmentation.
Still, getting a Note 5 in a couple days, so I can't wait.

It is more in terms of optimization. iOS while lacking in features in Android, is extremely optimized for their hardware which is something that is difficult for Android which is on devices with a variety of hardware. By optimizing the most out of their hardware, they can achieve these results., something hard for Android to do with fragmentation.
Still, getting a Note 5 in a couple days, so I can't wait.

in that case, it's interesting that the S6 had the advantage in other videos i've seen. also, Android just always seems like there's always more things going on (factor in those widgets) compared to iOS which is like so vanilla.
