[Q]Moving from sgs3 to note 2 - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I've recently got my s3 perhaps 4 months ago and I want to kill myself now that this beast is released. Just asking those Who have moved over from the s3, is the screen really that less clear compared to s3? I've heard that alot from many readings, and really hope to hear some feedback from you guys!

I ditched my S3 three days ago. Note 2 has by far a better screen. Both great phones, but I prefer the Note 2. The battery life is ridiculous. I swear, it's powered by a fusion reactor.

I came from the s3 last week and the difference of performance is like night and day. It must be the ram and optimized software. I like the screen is this note better because the colors are nicer and there is no tinting. True, it might be a bit less sharp than the s3 but you'll only notice it if you have both devices side by side.

Go for the gray one! My s3 was white and I loved it, decided to try something different this time. I love titanium gray as it looks really classy but it's kinda hard to match cases with it. The white one is easier to pair in that aspect but the gray one looks more professional.

Why do people say the screen isn't as good as the s3?

Color Preference?

Now that the Note 2 has been announced, in what colors would you like to see it dressed up?
Officially, so far, 'Marble White' & 'Titanium Grey' have been featured on Samsung's site.
http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxynote/note2/images.html?type=find
I would like to see it in the GSIII's 'Pebble Blue', or 'Blood Red'.
AFAIK, no limited edition colors have been rumored/announced.
What do potential buyers want?
Lets get some fun discussions going.
I seriously can't decide. I usually hate white phones as I found them too girly, but recently I saw a friend's marble while GS3 and it lookes sooo awesome and premium. But then again, a drawback of the white is that it's so eye-catching, especially with a phone as huge as the note II.

I chose the two colors from Note 2, four from the GS III as well as a few others.
Lets see what users prefer.
Pre-order in Titanium Grey:victory:
I've prordered a white one...never had a white phone before so it's time to try something else. .
On the contrast I do want my note 2 to stand out.
Just hope that it won't get dirty too easily because of the white colour

I'll probably go with grey, but it's going into a trident case as soon as they release them anyway.
i am hoping for the amber brown version!

i guess I'm gonna buy the white one, with a black flip cover. that way i have my desired black phone, with a fance white inside
Grey, to match my Grey Note 10.1..... :victory:
The titanium grey Will look even better in person just like the pebble blue on the galaxy s3, the white just doesn't appeal to me

I was in the same situation a week ago, I had my white note that I loved but for some reason I really wanted the grey one. My roomate bought the white one from me and I ordered a grey one that I have since Tuesday. To be honest with you they are both great (in my opinion) , sometimes I see my roomate using the white one and I say to myself "damn it is actually very nice maybe I should have kept it" but im very happy with the titanium grey, I like the black S pen better. The grey one is also less flashy.

I'm undecided, but leaning towards getting the white Note 2 when it comes out here in the states. I've always had a black phone since back when I had my Touch pro, Evo, S2. Grey seems too much like the black for me.

I agree. Get the gray official flip case and ta da it will make your phone into the gray one since it totally replaces the back cover.

I can see slightly into the infrared spectrum, which is useful because only I can see my Note II; to everyone else, it's just shimmering heat waves and a screen!

Well, i was thinking of white.. then when i got them both hands on, i preferred gray.. Then again, when i went into shop, they had only white (and i couldnt wait of course, i was already sick of waiting for Nexus 4 bullcrap), then i bought white...
And then, my friend bought gray 2 weeks ago.. And i was much more satisfied with the white one... Dont know why... Its a personal matter anyway

Does it really matter at all? 2 colors from which to choose. Not a lot of variance on answers.

White Note 2 owners... happy?

I'm thinking the white Note 2 looks better than the gray and was wondering if anyone regretted their color choice with white? The gray looks nice too, but I think the white just looks more professional and elegant. Anyone switch colors or regret their choice?
Nope love my titanium gray N2. No regrets.

I have white because I always choose white devices... but I got to say the texture of the gray one just looks super bada$$

I really like the finish on my Grey note 2. I don't really think it matters if you have a white note 2 though, since you'll probably end up putting a case on it anyway.

I absolutely love my white Note 2. There's one thing that does slightly bother me, not a deal breaker though, if you get the white battery cover with the front flip cover the inside felt of it can get a bit dirty.

I have a white one and it looks good but if I had an option of a grey I would have picked it up. Only con is if its dirty it would show more than an grey one. Other then that I'm enjoying my white note 2.

Many people have made the same points I have made in the past. White looked good on the OG Note 1 (which I once had) but it looks lackluster on the Note 2. The titanium gray is absolutely gorgeous! I find myself staring at my phone a lot lol. And when any source of light hits it in a certain way, the brushed aluminum finish pops drastically! The white Note 2 just looks really boring, plasticy, and kind of cheap. That's just my opinion.
Had a white skyrocket and the white Note II and very happy with phone and color.
Once you put a SP and Case you can have any color or metal case color you want.
The white doesn't show scratches and looks like a new phone.
Good luck great phone.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium
As someone else previously mentioned if you end up putting a case on it then it really doesn't matter. In fact I don't even know what my Note2 looks or feels like without the case on.
But yes I am very happy with my white note2, great looking, and great in general.
I got a white one because when I ordered the Retentions rep told me the grey could be backordered by the time my order was fulfilled. I like the white, havent had a white device yet. I would have MUCH rather gotten black, as the displays on Samsung phones look amazing in a black bezel.
The gray looks way too good

Yea, I mean for the size of the note 2 it's pretty light. But an even lighter phone would make one hand operation a little easier to use, allowing you to maneuver the phone around better with just one hand.
