Hello there - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Just got this phone yesterday and I am excited to join the community with it. The phone runs amazingly. The only thing I feel this phones lacks is a bigger resolution but oh well not a big deal. 480p, 1.5ghz dual core, 1gig ram....This phone runs better then some of my friends computers so I can't complain there, lol.
Well I figured I would stop by and say hello.

Hello! And welcome!
My boner is a croissant.

Galaxy note to T-Mobile......

The only thing better than our phone is the screen.... a lot of ppl say its really laggy the att version at least. We will see
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
Note is nice but I personally think its too big. I see it more of a business phone, not personal at all.
Yea it is big but my boss has the att one and its really nice and we all know T-Mobile is faster so who knows might have different specs just thought it was cool that we might be getting one

I had the note briefly and LOVED it, returned it cause there wasnt a stable modem/radio for us Tmo users...if this is true, im 100% back!!
Yay?

I still haven't had time to play with a Note yet, but its intriguing to say the least. It definitely looks a bit too large to use as an everyday phone but I'll give it a shot at least
You probably will be happier with the s3, it will be the next Gen phone.
Get the note if you need a tablet phone or high Res screen for more icons on the app drawer or something. I'm gonna wait for the s3 just because of the flagship and the proper balance of features and size and weight

If it comes to Tmo hopefully its the same but with an s4 processor

I'm really really really hope it's the Note! But, my next upgraded phone will be a toss up from the sgs3 or the note!
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2
My uncle has the international version so I've had the opportunity to work on this device here and there. Using it daily really doesn't wind up feeling a ton bigger than the t989, only problems I've experienced are certain apps can't figure out if it's a tablet or a phone, so there's a fair amount of compatibility issues, but it's very slick.
But, and a big but, that phone is a Gen behind the s3

The skyrockets a great phone but its just too big for me so i picked myself up a unlocked droid 3 which i got a great deal on. I only have 3g where i live anyway.
Its already somewhat outdated, but i still have my skyrocket. I just love having a physical keyboard phone on hand, not to mention it works with medianet ( 15$ unlimited data ).
Most of you are probolly thinking who the hell are you? lol
I think most of us were waiting for me to come in and make some smart ass comment about thia strange and somewhat my little ponyish cry for attention. Ill refrain though and just give you a little picture of my doggie instead.

[Q] Skyrocket or Nexus

I currently have the skyrocket but have a chance to get the Samsung galaxy nexus. I live in Oregon so no LTE. I need a second opinion which is better for games picture taking and mainly overall performance. Would really love some input I'm stuck in between.
Nexus
Skyrocket has better hardware. Camera is better. Processor is better. Screen is bigger. We have aosp. Shall I say more?

Gnex camera is bad apparently.
Both phones are powerful, very very powerful. If you're comfortable rooting it honestly doesn't make much of a difference and I'd go with the Skyrocket since out of three things you mention picture is one of them and I've heard complaints about Gnex camera.
Without the LTE its a bit disappointing though. In all honesty you're choosing between two high end android devices, you'll be perfectly satisfied with either. Given the fact you're on XDA you must be some what of a techie, so maybe GNex is your best bet. Try out the camera first though
Yep there is a white nexus.. its not on Google's site idk y. But tried camera and love it so far thinks its better then skyrocket to be honest I couldn't get good pics with SR

Yeah. It has a glossy finish which is why I prefer the titanium one.
Really depends on what your priority is. If you're in an LTE market, Skyrocket seems to be a better choice. As a SR owner I'm considering selling and moving to a Nexus. If you need your phone unlocked than consider a plus for Nexus since you'll save $20 there. As others have mentioned look into the camera, I however use mine once a month if that.
I guess biggest part is how much Dev support you need. Nexus will keep you flashing everyday of you so choose. SR options are a bit limited but those who have worked on it have done a fantastic job.

I compared my skyrocket to my friends gnex and although the gnex screen looks better I would personally stick with the Skyrocket mainly because of the build quality. It just feels better in hand. Other than that, the gnex has an awesome community and more stable asop stuff.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
what!? ive been thinking about switching to Nexus since yesterday. Holy Crapple Crap!
How is it skyrockets screen is bigger? its 4.5 vs 4.65 Nexus. And nexus has 720p screen when skys is only 480p. LTe isnt important too me.. yes its super fast internet but i never found it useful. I mean if i had unlimited plan then Lte sure is nice but i have 300mb data and i find it enough for emails a couple pics and web. I used to have unlimited with ipoop 3G but my monthly usage was around 250mbs.
Does anybody knows if nexus front facing camera has auto focus?
