I have a Galaxy Note and Galaxy Nexus GSM.
I have been running the Stunner 4.5 ROM for the Galaxy Note for the last day.
I don't know why, but I still find the Galaxy Nexus GSM a little smoother. I also ran the Antutu Benchmark and the Galaxy Nexus scores about 1.5K higher. Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this? I know that the Galaxy Note has a Better, Faster CPU and a Faster GPU. So, I don't know why this is happening.
(Probably because the OS is better on the Galaxy Nexus? (Or is it just because the Note has such a huge screen it has a problem pushing the power to the screen)?
I was just wondering if anyone had any idea.
Thanks!
Also, I found out that when you touch the screen on the Galaxy Nexus and the Galaxy Note at the same time, the Galaxy Nexus seems to respond a little quicker.
Is it something with the display? It's like comparing a Rear Projection TV to a Plasma. The Plasma has a little more lag.

Guys which is the best best phone
SAMSUNG galaxy nexus prime or Samsung galaxy noteprice are similar but whats your review??
Not really a comparison. Do you want a bigger phone with better hardware, or a smaller phone with a newer OS? Answer that question to find out which you think is the best.

Funny I went from an iPhone 4 to a SGS2 to my current phone the Galaxy Note.
The iPhone 4 and 4S is the absolute smoothest experience you'll get on a smartphone bar one, but the SGS2 and Galaxy Note will give you about 90-95 percent of that fluid operation.
In real world use, the SGS2 and Note are just as fluid as the iPhone 4 in most everything, they are probably the paragon for smoothness in Android phones. In benchmarks, my Galaxy Note blows my previous SGS2 away. Stock Quadrants are around 4700 on the Note, SGS2 was around 3200. Same with Antutu and CF bench, the Note benches a lot higher than the SGS2. The 1.4GHz Exynos in the Note is a true beast.
Basically the Note is a SGS2 on steroids. Bumped up processing power, 1.4Ghz dual cores, bumped up screen to HD 1280x800 superamoled of gorgeousness! 5.3" of screen to play with, S-Pen, a big 2500mAh battery that seems to last forever! Camera is even better according to reviews which is a big deal since the SGS2 is probably one of the best cameras on a smartphone. The only negative is that not all people can handle the size comfortably.
Since both phones have a Super AMOLED display, does anyone know how the screens between the Galaxy Nexus and the Galaxy Note compare?
Coming from a Galaxy S2 (Super AMOLED+) prior to the Galaxy Nexus, I have to say I'm very disappointed in the Galaxy Nexus screen. Banding, grain, terrible low light/brightness quality, etc...
The following post shows exactly what the screen on my Galaxy Nexus looks like.

However, I'm very tempted to pick up a Galaxy Note as a daily driver but if the screen looks like my Galaxy Nexus, I may think twice about it.
Anyone here have and/or used both able to comment?
Thanks!
It seems the note has the same issues as our nexus with the display. Banding, grainy at low brightness, etc. Its due to Samsung new production process of amoled. It will get fixed over time with later upcoming phones.
So I am looking for a new tablet and I read that some people are not impressed with the nexus 9. I have always been a fan of the quality of samsung though. They seem to have a premium feel to it.
So my question si this? Is the Tab S 10.5" Still a very good choice? Even over the specs of the Nexus 9?
I would never get the first 64bit tablet. Let other suckers live through the year of bugs its going to cause with apps.
Tab pro: OLED screen. Also bigger screen if that's what you want.
Tab con: samsung bloat ware. Can't root without voiding warranty.
Nexus pro: it's a nexus. Pure android. Lollipop on day one. Better processor.
Nexus con: Ars and android police, the two reviews I've seen so far, are lukewarm. Built not great, lousy camera.
The tab built feels fine to me. I got it for the OLED screen. Ideal tablet would be tab body and screen with snap dragon or tegra cpu and nexus software.
Tab S with CyanogenMod, it flies...
Nexus 9.this tablet lags.
I noticed that the price of the 10.5 Tab S dipped down to $400 last night on Amazon. I was mildly tempted, but the lack of updates when I owned the original Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Galaxy Player 4.0 burned me enough to want to avoid Samsung if I can. Also, the hardware buttons are a turn off if they stay illuminated like they did on my Galaxy Player and I would prefer a 4:3 aspect ratio.

i would check out the link above user are reporting that there nexus 9 the back is getting hot
i was thinking about getting nexus 9 but now am passing am now planing on getting ipad air 2 or samsung S 10.5 i may get the samsung S 10.5
Yeah reading more reviews the nexus 9 is just not good for the money. Disappointing.
Hello,
I have both Note 5 and Tab S2 and its bugging me how smooth apps are on my Tab S2 compare to my Note 5. Every app on the Tab S2 is buttery smooth with no lag but you can see apps like Google plus choppy while scrolling on the Note 5. Not to mention that note 5 suffers from many issues that my Tab S2 doesn't such as deep sleep issue and the freezing for 10s from time to time
What is the reason behind this? Do tablet team code better than mobile team on Samsung ?
Tabs S2 uses exynos 5 while note 5 is exynos 7.

Hard reset will not do anything. I'm even using art97 kernel with no luck. Try Tab S2 and you will feel the differance.
I wonder why that is. My Note 5 is laggy even after a factory reset. Maybe some of us just have lemons? Who knows. You sure its not just because the Tab S 2 is newer perhaps?
I have both devices too, and you are right, the tab s2 is silky smooth without ant tweaks but my note5 no matter what tweak i applied still have lags from time to time!
