I have a galaxy nexus at the moment and I planned on paying full price for a note 2 or galaxy SIII. I see the the GSIII has a lot more rom support than the note 2. So I'm asking those who own or owned both which do you like best?
Note 2 doesn't need much rom support. Gn2 does so much more than s3. Twice the cpu twice the ram + spen. Not much to compare

My wife has the GS3 and I have the Note 2. Having rooted/tweaked both, I can definitely say that neither really requires much in terms of ROMs. My wife likes things stock, but I was constantly flashing new ROMs on my EVO 4G, but don't really don't feel the need at all with my Note 2. Although there aren't as many ROMs for the Note 2, I think there's otherwise equal development for both in terms of tweaks and hacks.
One thing I did do was put Nova Launcher on my Note 2. Stupid lawsuits from Apple and others have stripped down the features of TouchWiz so much that I feel like I'm using 6-year-old technology.
Your choice pretty much boils down to size. If you like or can tolerate a bigger phone then I would highly recommend getting the Note 2. If not, then get the SG3.
Thanks. I think I'm going to go with the note 2. I have sprint but there data is so slow. I was thinking about jumping to Verizon or AT&T and get one.
From what I understand, the SIII is at its "end of life" and is being phased out. I was recently faced with the same choice and couldn't be happier with my choice. Get the Note 2.

Sprint will be releasing LTE in many cities soon so check yours.
If you are going with Sprint take a look at Amazon Wireless. They have the BEST prices. Right now they have the GN2 for $99 with a new 2 year contract. Not bad. ($199 if you are upgrading).

** The good news is that while Sprint won't pricematch anyone, Bestbuy is now pricematching Amazon. Soooo, go into Bestbuy and tell them about the AmazonWireless price and get a deal.

Bought my wife the S3 and Note 2 for me. Either is solid, but holding her phone in my hand just feels cute. Prefer the Note 2 for a bunch of reasons. The stock rom is fantastic. Still, I rooted mine an hour after it arrived. No regrets. Development is looking great IMHO.

I just upgraded from the Sprint GS3 to the Sprint Note 2 and I LOVE IT. The Note2 is AWESOME. I had it rooted and flashed Mack's Rom less that an hour after I made the purchase. I would suggest the Note 2 as long as you don't mind the size.
I have had my Note 2 for about little over a week coming from S3 and either is a good choice but I am happy I got the Note 2 because it just does so much more than any other device on the market including the S3 my next phone will be the Note 3 for sure because how much I love this one that's my 2or3 cents

I too went from the original EVO like so many others. Also, as previous members have posted, Best Buy does match Amazon. Amazon had it for 199.99 for renewal and I signed up for the Best Buy mobile credit promotion of $50 (no longer available). Total pocket cost was about 200 after activation.
Absolutely love this phone!

absolutely not... the big screen is horrible for using the phoen as a phone... i carry a separate tablet for all my tablet needs...
Note 2 is awesome when compared to the First Note, thinking to switch.
I sold my Galaxy Note for S3 primarily because I wanted something smaller than Galaxy Note but at the sametime wanted something bigger screen than HTC 7 Mozart (3.8") or iPhone 5 (4"). So, I will not get the Galaxy Note 2.
I've already sold my GSIII for a good two weeks now! Just patiently waiting for Note II...
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I also just got my S3 at launch and now going to jump ship to the Note II. I loooved the Note 1 but it was just a tad wide for me, but the minutely thinner N2 looks amazing.
I'm hoping my S3 will mostly fund the cost of the N2 at a non-upgrade price.
Anyone that's sold your S3, how much did you get for it? I have an AT&T version but lots of goodies with it.
note2 ftw!
besides the specs of note2 over s3, i prefer the productivity suite of apps that its offering. i won't be needing more pens and papers with this phablet.
this is just enough for me. before i was thinking of buying a table since i already have my ever loyal and still functioning s1 (gt-i9000). then again, most of the tablets with android seems to be missing the phone functionalities (text/sms, call, 3g/4g). only a few of them matches, but not like the note2.
heck, i was even torned between note2 and the superphone lg optimus g. but then again, i buy gadgets based on what i need and its usability. that is how i prefer it.
Will preorder the Note2 on tuesday, the starting price is 629 euro`s in the Netherlands atm. Will sell my S3 this weekend. Very excited about the GN2, the dualcore cpu in the GN1 was not powerfull enough to process all those pixels as it should and felt laggy at times. This should be fixed in the GN2 :victory:
Do you think it will be worth it to upgrade from my GS3 to the NOTE II?
I have read in the other gnote 2 forum there is a lot of other gs3 users who made the switch and are far happier with the note 2. U might want to take a look over there and see what they say

someone will buy my GS3 for $400 or so on craigslist. So i'm buying the $650 no commitment price and i have $100 gift card at best buy. so itll be $150 to me.. no biggie

I've got the same debate going on in my head and it's compounded by my sons (both CompE grads) urging me to get the Nexus 4. I've been enamored with the Note, since the original came out. I'll get the N2 on the 9th and use it for 3-4 days. I'll know at that time, whether it's the right one for me. If not, I'll return it and get the Nexus.
didnt they leave LTE off the nexus 4? That's a dealbreaker for me

I sell phones. I play with both and own a note 2. It's a personal thing, but if you are a power user, which I think you are because you are on XDA then you will LOVE the Note II. Once you use it you can't go back.
* The screen is so much better and brighter than SG3.
* jellybean and 1.6GHz Quad Core processor makes everything buttery smooth
* watching youtube videos are stunning in HD
* extra large screen is great for gaming! especally on emulators.
* Using it as a E-Reader for my Kindle App Books work superbly well as the screen is the size of a small paperback book page

I dont mind the size.. so Idk which one I should get..
Does the Note2 have as much development as the SGS3? I'm into the whole dev kinda thing.. im not here to buy a phone to keep it stock.
-----> I will thank everyone's posts <-------
The Galaxy S4 won't be out for at least several months and the Note 2 is only a couple of months old, so the Note 3 is a way off yet.
As far as development goes, check out the development section of the Note 2 forum, it's very active. Having said that, the stock software on the Note 2 is pretty good, especially if you want to take advantage of the S-Pen.

I am in the same shoes as you... Almost. I currently have an S3 and just bought the Note 2 also. I am contemplating if I should keep the Note 2 and sell the S3 or just return the Note 2 and preserve my upgrade for the S4 or N3.
I don't know why you would want one or the other but let me tell you what motivates me. I want the Fastest phone, best battery life. The Note 2 does that. The thing I didn't count on was actually coming to a conclusion that a 5.5 inch screen wasn't too big.
So it depends what floats your boat.

I had a S2 first before i bought my new note2, all in all it depend on what you wish for. We can answer or decide for you which is better. Thing that you have too keep in mind and ask your self are. 1. Will you be confortable having a big phone?, if not a S3 seems perfectly. My case , everybody seems to have a laugh at my big phone, some like it a lot, others find it just too much. But when i put on a show with it, they are like damnnnn.
The only problem with the note is when you have it, you most likely never would go back to a smaller phone again.you will feel strange having a S3, or 2 in hand.
im coming from the s3 which is a great phone but you wont regret note 2 bro its AWESOME:highfive::highfive:
Got both and whole heartedly recommend the Note 2
Go for the note 2 !! you wont regret it :good::good::good:
Coming from my s2 which is still very good. The galaxy note 2 is amazing an makes my old phone look slow. Better battery life faster in all aspects download ing etc. Once u use one u won't want to swap. Big or not it still the best phablet on the market.

my personal opinion would be get note 2 now.
because its still new, holds value pretty well, but once we are in 2013, i would consider S4.
to be honest I change phone roughly every 2 years, and I just get the one that I will be happy with, that's future proof ish (eg. LTE) for 2 years.

Note II is all about the pen for me. I personally wouldn't wait for the S4. Note3 maybe =P

If it's in your budget, get the note 2 now and wait a month or two after the S4 comes out to see if it's worth getting and not plagued with issues. Then sell the note 2 and pay the extra 150 dollars or so to get the S4.
The note 2 is an extremely solid device. You might end up waiting 6 months for a device that isn't worth waiting for

The S pen is also pretty fun to use
Yeah so wait for the S4 to come out oh but it doesn't have S-Pen functions oops now you find out the Note 3 is about to come out then you wait for it but oh the processor is not as fast as you'd like it to be so then the Note 3 is out but the S5 is announced oh but it doesn't do my chores for me then oops the Note 4 is announced so let's wait for that oh but it doesn't make me look thinner... then the S6 is announced...
Unless you have an unlimited pit of money, you shouldn't worry about new tech or getting the latest and greatest (because the latest and greatest gets unseated tomorrow). Pull the trigger, experience what ever pulls you towards it, then wait for another upgrade price to come around since the tech will always be newer, better, and more expensive. :laugh:

Hahaha yeah I hear you there. I'm thinking about pulling the trigger, I am just thinking hard about it. I love my S3 but I want some more productivity tools that the spen offers. I have an ipad mini and even though it's sexy and slick it just reminded me of why I left the iPhone. Very closed and useless with no wifi, I can't even blue tooth transfer files to it
