[Q] Get the Note or wait for the Note 2?

Hello all,
I'm due an upgrade in June and have my eye set on the Galaxy Note or the Galaxy S3. The one thing that compels me is the size of the screen on the Note, so I'm probably more inclined to the get the Note.
The only thing is, I don't want to buy the note and have the note 2 come out 2 months later, lol.
Maybe you guys can help me out here.

If you like to read and browse on a big screen then the note or the next iteration of the note is the solution. No contest there, anything less than 5 inch to me belongs to more of a phone. I am using the 4.7 inch HTC one x and the note, the 0.6 inch difference is missed when using the x. there are some occasion I wish a carry a smaller phone but on most occasion I am happy to fit the biggest size phone. The Samsung galaxy tab 7.7 on some occasion is perfect, yet the 5.3 for all occasion is perfect. Note 2 (700$~800$)won't be out international till November ish since that is when the original note got released. Buy note when possible keep it in good shape, resell and buy note 2. Dual core in euro note and lte note is adequate for most. So buy now and love life.

I agree - best phone on the market hands down... It's blazing fast, and there's really no need for quad core for any current use of a smartphone apart from tegra games, which you can run through chainfire. There has been no word of a note 2

get the note if you need/want the s-pen features.
Get the S3 is that's what it is, or get the Galaxy Nexus for ICS and JB
Don't wait for the Note 2 it wont be out till next year at the earliest.

There isn't any official information about the Note 2 yet, so you should go for either the Note or the upcoming S3.

Get the note, Samsung didnt realise how popular the note would be as such they never rolled it out quickly accross all the regions instead taking a staggered approach. The chances of a note 2 this year would be slim so enjoy what we have now

I think you should get the note if you love big screens like most of us here or get the S3 if you want more power and probably better spec which I am sure is going to be more expensive as well. But remember that there is always a better phone around the corner.

you should wait for the note 2
in the mean time use a string telephone

There is no announcement about the Note 2. Go buy the Note 1 now and skip a generation for the Note 3 and that way you'll always feel a significant upgrade.

What a pointless question! Should I get an existing only just released phone or wait for a fabled unicorn? Only you can answer that buddy. Personally, I'd go for a phone that is on the market (and amazing, by the way) rather than wait it out for the next generation which could still be years away!
S3 or Note - again only one of them is actually for sale (or has any firm specs) so you can't really make that decision either. If your contract is up in June, wait until then and see what is actually available at the time!
Pretty much everyone who has a Note will tell you how happy they are with it though. (Apart maybe the spoiled children who aren't happy we are having to wait for ICS )

Just get the Note. You could wait for Note 2, then for Note 3 etc. And the fact is that Note 1 is already amazing.

what about 3
You should wait for the note 3.... I dont understand people... You can also wait for the 4 i have heard it should be better...

Bought the Note now, it won't hurt you.
In matter of fact I do think this is one of my smartest decision i made. Definitely useable for work, for fun or just take a simple sketch
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk

Whatever you buy and whenever you buy it, there's a always new model just around the corner, so there's no perfect time to buy. I can say that the Note is by far the best phone I've had - better than the S2 I had.

Is that like ICS for Note was planned for Q1 2012?!

time to say goodbye? NOTE 2 here i cone, or do i ? need advice

anyway, down to business...
i can not trade up my note 1 to note 2 by adding about a 260$...
should i do it? that the hard question, 260$ doesn't lay down on the street...

The Note II is amazing, but there will always be a new phone on the horizon.
Get your money's worth out of what you have now. If you can sell it for a good
price, like >75% of its current value, you still lose.

I love my note 1. But having said that and going through how Samsung treated us with the emmc bug, I will be only picking up nexus devices from now on. Direct updates from Google is a boon. My opinion completely.

Ask yourself the following questions:
What makes the Note 2 better then Note 1?
And are those changes game breaking?
Are those changes worth "upgrading" phone?
Like someone above me said: New phones come out each day.
My opinion: Wait for "the next big thing"
Note 1 can do almost the same things as Note II

I was at a best buy today and got a chance to look at the note II up close. Honestly my galaxy notes screen looked crisp and sharper than the display model Note II. And I really liked the 16x10 screen ratio on my note. I'll wait for the Note III.

Do not expect note III to have 16 x10 screen ratio. It will be 16 x9 with full HD maybe.

Any way Samsung to update the Galaxy Note directly to Android 4.1.2
so stick to Note 1 have some experience, compare and then decide about upgrade to note 2

I also noticed this too, but it is odd ! How can note 1 screen be sharper and brighter and note 2?

I was eager to buy note II but when the xls2 firmware was available I decided to not spend the money because JB in note 1 its awesome.. TW UX was the what made me stay with note I... And now we even have multi windows so I see no point for upgrading until at least SGS IV.. The beast its coming in no time with the latest samsung processor/gpu and the latest screen technology.. With 5" Screen... Guess it has no physical buttons..
Tapatalking on my n7000

yeah probably that why samsung delaying the official release of jb..

I would wait a couple of months before upgrading, they're just about to release a string of 1080p quad core phones in late Jan early Feb.

Agreed and as has been said before note 2 screen (in my opinion) is not game chagingly better and as Note 1 can do much of the things the 2 can wait and see what comes early next year.
If Sammy continue as they have the note 3 is less than a year away anyway.

The GNII screen seemed fuzzier and less sharp than my note. Honestly I went into the store looking to buy the Note II but when I saw how fuzzy the screen was I was turned off. My screen seemed brighter and crisper. And yes I went into the Note II display settings and jacked the brightness all the way up and picked the same dynamic screen mode that my note I used.
I feel my Note can hold me over without issue until the Note III. And 16x9 is not a huge thing to get used to, I understand that is the standard. I really enjoyed the 16x10 though...

Just got rumours on galaxy s4.... 8 core processor?!!

Many rumors are floating around that Samsung will be using the Exynos 5450 Quad-Core CPU clocked at 2.0 GHz, the Exynos 5450 is part of Samsung’s Exynos Series 5 and is based on Cortex-A15 Architecture, a 8-Core Mali-T658 GPU, 2GB of RAM and a 13 Megapixel rear facing camera. According to our Korean Insiders, Samsung will be equipping the Galaxy S IV with a stunning 4.99″ SuperAMOLED Display with a resolution of 1920×1080 (1080p Full HD) giving the display a 441PPI Pixel Density and the display is already in Mass Production.

That's just pure sex.... Not sure I can wait for note 3 with that on offer.

If these rumors hold true and the GSIV actually comes out with a 4.99" screen, do you think Samsung will just merge the Note functionality with the Galaxy series and just produce one single device rather than two? I mean it makes sense. One device with large screen and S Pen functionality. They seem to be making the Galaxy phone screen larger and larger, why not right?

I gave a try to Note II yesterday, compared 2 web sites side by side and to my surprise, Note I display is somehow better. Display ratio on Note I is also still better.
Smoothness in Note II was not noticeable, no reason to upgrade at the moment. There would be 1 way to get involved and it is smart dock, but that thing is not that common now and I guess with Note III it will be more polished and apps got more optimization, so it will be like Padphone I guess.
Note I is simply better, not by hardware of course, but how everything fit together.

Note 5 OR Note 5 edge ?

As Note 5 is around corner and many users always prefer to follow their favorite developer to get developmental support. We know Note4 have almost no support here but looking to S 6 edge success things may be different on note 5.
So request here users and developers to cast their vote
Would you like to go with Note 5 OR Note 5 Edge?

Note 5 Edge? Haven't heard about this one so far.

It will be clear tomorrow (i am not wrong tomorrow is N5 unpacked event) BTW google search reveals many pictures of N5 edge.

Waiting for the S7/Note 6; I really want to see how Samsung's custom core SoC performs. Btw you should probably add "none of the above" to the survey.

The GS6 Edge PLUS WOULD be cool, but I keep seeing it has Qualcomm 808. Not sure why Samsung would downgrade, but if they did, I'll get Note 5 with 7422. Now if Samsung got all Apple on us, and use the 7420 in the Note, ill look at the Moto X or maybe the Nexus by Huawei on principle. Making the Note just a bigger Galaxy with spen is like Apple and their "s" releases.

Note 4/here until something better comes out because N5 and edge aren't it.

No microsd = Note None!

Well, there are different Edge concepts out there. The Note 4 Edge and the S6 Edge. Even if it's less functional I prefer the S6 Edge for aesthetic reasons. Would I buy it? Don't think so.

Note 5, if it has a higher battery or a better backup
Sent from my SM-N910G using XDA Free mobile app

After owning Note 4........I would wait for something better, maybe other brands. Too many issues with Samsung:
- Bloated TWiz
- WTF Knox fuse warrenty
- extremely delayed s/w upgrades
- don't add features to old models, e.g. theme support in note 4
- No removable battery going forward
- No SD card support going forward
- probaly lot more which I can't think of now..

neither

Me neither, gonna stay with my Note 4. Can't miss my removable battery and SD slot.
Maybe it's getting time to let go of samsung and try some other flavors.

Waiting until this afternoon to make my decision. If there is no 4100mAh battery and no MicroSD then neither.

Nexus 6

Let's wait and see which markets the Note 5 will be available at... We may be surprised.

http://www.engadget.com/2015/08/13/samsung-galaxy-note-5-hands-on-preview/
So we basically knew everything already. Sigh, let's hope the note 6 fares better next year. No MicroSD, no swappable battery, no 128Gb version, only 3000mAh battery, etc. This is beyond disappointing.

Bye bye samsung ! No Micro SD, no Battery replacement, no update, Knox fuser !
I'am out !

LOL.
Note 5 has max 64 gb storage. No 128 option xD

You would think they will "Try" to satisfy us with 5.1.1 but no!

Installed 5.1.1 on my 910C thinking It will fix everything at least not asking for extra features but I was so appointed. The phone STILL vulnerable to "Stagefright" I don't know what does this update include but it seems like everything is same as before. Picture takes 3-4 sec to show after shooting, performance is sh!t compare to my Tab S2 which has the same processor but the note 4 lags like hell. Its great to note that its a fresh installation not just an upgrade over odin and root doesn't work anymore. Guess have to wait!
Thought I will share what I found so far. Will update after all apps done installation to see if anything changes.
Update:
Recent app very fast
Antutu score 46k
Ram used 1.4GB
Root doesn't work

thats what i hate about samsung.
late update.
no new features
no 64bit support
treating s6 and s6 edge like they are only flagships. :/

Im very satisfied with the update for now. Performance is excellent. I prefer this update rather than a fail software like they give for s6.

S6 scores 70k on Antutu and its launcher fly compare the note 4. I used to have the S6 and its much much faster than note 4

i believe s6 will get marshmallow in 3 months of 6.0 release so maybe they can solve issues plaguing s6 and s6 edge like lags and battery.
while note 4 was always maybe most hated device from them since its launch.
imagine 5.1.1 a small update from 5.0.1 took 4 months :/
marshmallow is just dream to get before march 2016.

Surprisingly no. This is the first thing i checked after I saw that the Tabs S2 is very very smooth compare to my note 4. I had a high hope that they figured out how to optimize the internal and will see the same on the note 4 soon, but that wasn't the case. I think note 4 need its software to be recreated or Android M will fix it.

At least you guys have 5.1.1 lol all of the N910F users (like me) are just going to sit and cry haha

All I gotta say is the note4 multitasks better, rather switches apps faster and better. The ram management on the s6/edge/nope5/edge can suck it.

Compared to a SD810 Note 4 you might be right. Exynos 5433 and 7420 are very close in terms of CPU, the real difference between the two is the GPU power.

The Note series has a different developer team than the S-series, and they're way better. You can expect the Note 5 FW to be better than the S6's.

Note 8 or wait till s9 plus

Hi guys I've just got the note 8 on contract question is do you guys think I should wait for the s9 plus or keep the note 8
I'm happy with the note 8 only thing I'm jealous of from the rumours is the stereo speakers
Apart from that I don't see what more they can improve on that will over take the note 8 maybe the camera but as far as I know ain't they using the same displays 1440p ect?
Thanks

You should keep the note 8, wait for the s9+, buy a Nokia 3310 in the mean time and then wait some more for the note 10. :silly:

Lol I know it was a silly question suppose I was just wondering if people thought it was with the wait or it will just be a incremental update of the s8 plus ect

stereo speakers, camera, processor.... those seem to be the selling points really, however... no s-pen so not for me.
I'm not a good enough photographer to use/know the difference between S9+ and my Note 8, processing power... well my note8 have plenty already.... as for the speakers... well, no matter what, mobile phone speakers will never be all that great, if you want good sound go buy nice earbuds.
I doubt I would consider the S9+ an actual upgrade over the Note 8

Check the web, plenty of specs already there and decide for yourself. And in 4 days you'll see the official one.
Sent from my Galaxy Note8 using XDA Labs

As I always point out, a note user considers the s pen as the number one factor, if not, go for a S series, a pixel, a V series, a xperia, I dont know, any real fine flagship

Thanks guys just with me having 14 days to decide but I'll properly keep the note 8 something special a out the note series
I'll have a look at some decent buds now any recommendation that have nice sound any with a nice dac too
Thanks again

I'd tell anyone outside of XDA to go for N8, especially when S9 comes out as it will most definitely get a price drop.
However, in XDA, many will say S9, all due to Project Treble.
If you dont fiddle with your phone, stay with N8. We still dont have much info on Treble, but the way the tables have changed, technically, Sammy should adapt it.

Note 9 and S9/S9+ Skip. Note 10 or Galaxy X Give me! The S9+ slightly better then Note 8. You just contract phone. Chances are you had to put $200-300+ down payment. Plus the months you use till S9+ comes out which avg. $20-40. Then let's say you want a S9+ That's another $200-300 down and start all over with payments. Is it really woth it to have a slightly better Note 8? No.
Even the Note 9 rumors specs/features not making me want to get it. Will wait for Note 10 or Galaxy X. $1k a year for a phone? That hurts. Seems best to skip a gen and get a true upgrade. This Note 8 is a powerhouse so I am sure it will be good for 2-3 years.
That's just my opinion though. Some people want the hottest phone every year. That's fine it's your money spend how you want.

Thanks just checked what project treble is sound promising do you think the note 8 would get it?
I had the s8 plus xperia xz premium and the iPhone 8 plus and switched to the note 8 so looking to stick with the device for at least around a year lol need my phone addiction to calm down a bit
But if there isn't much of a difference between the s9plus to the note 8 what we know of anyways then I'll properly keep the note 8
Does anyone know on any rumours of what dac will be in the s9

Wait for 6.5" Note 9.

Sounds like spoiled bratty question.. no offence anyway like pen stay with note.. otherwise S series

I was wondering the same and ended up picking up the Note 8 directly from Samsung. They were willing to give me $350 for my Edge 7 which is more then I would get on Ebay and they tossed in the Icon X 2018. With how carriers do phones now with these stupid leases and no subsidizing. I'd rather pay $600 for a Note 8, then $800 for a S9+ in a few weeks that hasn't been tested mainstream yet.

Thanks just checked what project treble is sound promising do you think the note 8 would get it?
I had the s8 plus xperia xz premium and the iPhone 8 plus and switched to the note 8 so looking to stick with the device for at least around a year lol need my phone addiction to calm down a bit
But if there isn't much of a difference between the s9plus to the note 8 what we know of anyways then I'll properly keep the note 8
Does anyone know on any rumours of what dac will be in the s9

I'd like to know that too (DAC) , I love my Samsung but they're not notorious for great sound quality. Wonder if it'll be any different this time. I still keep my HTC 10 for listening to music, sounds miles better imho.

I'm using a htc usb c to 3.5 jack and to me sounds louder and better then the built in dac on the note 8

Guess we'll find out soon enough eh, for me if it includes a good DAC it'll be a good all rounder for me. Maybe they'll shock us... Hmm
