Has anyone switched to the note 8 but back to 10.1? - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm flirting with the idea of going to the note 8 due to size. Just want to see if anyone has jumped ship but has came back to the 10.1. I know there are comparison videos online but I wanted to get your input. I also realize this is the 10.1 forum and people will definitely sway to the 10.1.

Any Note 5.3 users that purchased 10.1?

Are you getting much additional usage? Do you take both with you when you leave the house?

I am using both, did not think that I would use this tablet much as I have experienced the features on the phone, how wrong was I ?
I have not been able to put it down, the pen has been enhanced so much that it truly has become a productivity tool along with the new multitasking features and fantastic stability in any task we put to it.
yeah me too love the combination
Probably tomorrow
Sent from my Asus Transformer Pad TF300T but I have a Samsung Galaxy Note too.

I am using the 10.1 with BT as a phone, the 5.3 is getting some rest
I am not a very heavy phone caller so that seems to work for me
Except the week end as I need to be light and pop the sim back into the 5.3
I use both, seems redundant but I haven't owned the 10.1 for long enough to make a decision.

I've been using the international note since the European launch last November, and I'm now thinking I'll go back to a "normal" phone when I replace the original Note. Maybe a Galaxy S3 or the next Nexus...
It does seem like overkill to have both, and the Note 10.1 is just spectacular!
Of course I may change my mind when I see the specs of the Note 2...

I concur with HasC... love this note 10.1, only wish I'd bought the 3g version instead of wifi (I ordered a 3g yesterday to replace my wifi version).
I'll carry the miniNote aroumd 24/7 and use it when megaNote use would be inconvenient or too conspicuous... but suspect I'll have and use megaNote with higher frequency than miniNote except for phone use.
In short, I think both have great utility and see keepung and using both.
I've got both as well. I still like to have the 5.3 for little notes for when I don't have access to my 10.1, plus its 100% reliable for me. I've been Bluetooth tethering to my 10.1 all day with no issues, the camera is top notch, no issues with the software, battery life is excellent, especially since its getting less use now. I thought about selling it for a Nexus, but I couldn't live without the great camera. I may go for an S3 if I can find a decent price on eBay, but otherwise I'll be satisfied with this for a while.

Its a perfect combo....
Love my note family...

10.1 now for everyday use
5.3 as backup and navi .........
Both these puppies rock and are in a league of their own! I use both and could never be happier...These devices are unique and I can't see myself changing to anything else. Can't wait for the note 2.
I am using them both, a happy user
Using both devices and loving them!

I m waiting for 10.1 on Wednesday so i dont have an opinion to post but as far as i thonk about it it is only an advandage to have a note family.
Thinking of taking it to ubuntu side so having dual boot tablet and an android phablet will be great.....
) ) ) over the air on Galaxy Note ( ( (
Use both in business daily.
I bought the 10.1 because of the 5.3.
Have them synced thru dropbox.
It's a powerful combination.
I have both Notes.
The 10.1 is not in any way a replacement for the 5.3 - It's a tablet, it can't fit in your pocket. The original Note can.
The N7000 is my phone, the N8013 is my tablet (well one of two... I also have a Nexus 7... Each device has its place. The N8013 probably won't get too much use beyond hacking until a combo Bluetooth keyboard/folio comes out for it.)
I've been using both. smaller Note 5.3 when I am walking around and the bigger note when i am stationary or really want to check out a web page or working in forums.

Did I get it right we'll get the same features as the note 2 with the JB update?
I mean they've said we'll be able to sync all these new features acros the line(note 10.1, note 2 and SGS3(or was it the galaxy camera).

I couldn't believe my eyes...
Wim Wenders testimonial of the Galaxy Note @IFA Berlin!
I've been following him since his first B/W '70 german movies...
...and...
I've been waiting for the galaxy note 10.1 release for the last months.
(Anyway I'd rather prefer a great artist wouldn't lend himself to commercial products )
BTW it wasn't much clear what galaxy note model he was holding and promoting...
Was it the GN 10.1? (It seemed a little too small for a 10.1 and too big for a phablet)
It was the galaxy note 2.

Well the SGN10.1 Is Samsungs flagship product at this point. As such I would expect them to be doing all they can to get the software at its best as quickly as possible. That being said the Note2 isn't coming out till Q4 I believe.
CM10 is about ready to go for our device already but I believe you will lose use of the native spen apps like snote. I guess that would also mean losing split screen. Yeah JB will be smoother on this device but it really will be like going 120 instead of 100. Is the increase in speed worth the loss of functionality?

I like the note as it is! no way am I loosing full functionality for CM 10. I've bought this for the S - Pen and its functions snote included. For the first time Since the SGS 3 I like stock just as it is. Can't believe I've said that after 2 years of excesive flashing of my Sgs.

Yep at a certain point the tablet is fast enough.

I feel that, I hate stock anything, but this seems the only way to go with the Note 10.1, I mean the thing .
If only we had a few more options for customization.

[Q] If you buy GN10.1, does it come with S Pen.

I haven't actually found this question anywhere, when you guys bought your tablets, did it come with the S pen or was it "sold separately?"
Came with the tab at purchase.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
Inserts in lower right corner so you won't loose it... You get everything you need, be a bit stupid of Samsung to promote the S-pen then make you purchase it separately for a specific tablet...
In every review ever done about this tablet, they say that the s pen comes with the tablet. I assume from your question that you have not read any reviews about it?
Sent from my GT-N8010 using xda app-developers app
People complaining about missing s-pen get confused with the Tab 10.1 because they look alike and doesn't come with an s-pen.
Sent from my GT-N8013 using xda app-developers app
The Galaxy Tab 10.1 comes in two versions... the first version is the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and this has no S pen... the second version is the Galaxy Note 10.1 which basically has S pen with it - for obvious reason... not to mention, that the 2nd version has better specs and usability...

I'm upgrading next month

Its been 2 years since I had my nexus. It was a great device and didnt really feel dated to me until this year. I already have my iPhone 5, so I guessim going to use this upgrade for a galaxy note 2. But my question is, what do you think would be the best successor to this device? I'm not sure if I'll even hack at this point anymore because my house now has WiFi and using my cell as a hotspot was main point.

Galaxy Note 2. Never look back...
Galaxy s4? Or htc one
Yeap note 2 no doubts

Nexus 4, the 16gb version, it's less expensive and has better suport. The one looks cool now but vhen the s4 comes it vill just ne another htc, whereas the nexus is still The Nexus!
Sent from my Nexus S using xda app-developers app
i guess the N4 comments are from people that didn't read he has SPRINT!!! Note2 seems to be the popular one of course... send me a PM, when you're ready to upgrade... i might have a hookup for ya
Got nexus4, note 2 , galaxy tab 2 7.0, 10.0 and note 10.1, tf300t , nexus 7 and GS 2.
I say go with note 2, small enough to fit into or pocket, not bulky to play games on it, closer to handheld console than large tabs, not too small. I love the spen.
Bottom line. If I could take only one device. Note 2 would let do all that I would wanna do in both phones and tablets.

For productivity, the note is the best. You can check out the note 8.0 as well

If i had the choice I would get either the note 10.1 or 8 with 3g, I am bias and cant see any other make worth getting,
If you are not in a rush wait and see what new version appears in the next few months.
