Swap or not

In a meeting today and was using my note 2 to make notes. Another guy shows lots of interest and after the meeting he asks me if I wanted to swap my note 2 for his iphone 5... said I'd think about it. .. should I think about it.

Definitely do it, then sell the iPhone and get another Note + some profit

No need to think about it. Serious downgrade and not really making a profit unless you're extremely patient and lucky

Just compare prices and do a decision.

do it. if you dont do it, your stupid

Compare prices and see if you can make profit! Galaxy note II is much better than Iphone 5 but the prices are different.

iPad 2 owner thinking of switching

I have the Note 1 smartphone and love it. I also like me iPad, but am thinking I might like the galaxy note 10.1 better. Am thinking of putting my iPad on eBay and buying this tablet. Any words of advice?

The ipad 2 is old news.. its time for an upgrade. treat yourself to the note 10.1 ... if u like your note than u gonna love the 10.1,,
Here are a few reasons why..
-true multitasking,
-bigger screen,
-more power,
-more ram,
-bigger battery
-the best android tablet on the market right now
the Note 10.1 has many other feature too but u will have to get it to found out..

depends what you want to do
disclaimer: my house has the ipad 2, 3 and 4 plus two SGS Note 10.1s. 3 of the 4 adults in the house are apple fanboys and the other is android (me). The older kids (11 and 9) just asked for the notes for christmas and now prefer them over the ipad whereas the younger kids (6 and 4) have only used the ipads. The things the older kids like about the Note is drawing, the multiple windows and so many more free apps. :end of disclaimer
IMO- they are all great devices depending on what you want to accomplish. For me, the Notes are much more productive and versital like a laptop (allowing you to have multiple windows open at the same time, Polaris office, etc.). I hate how itunes controls a lot for apple but I haven't used it for 4 or 5 years and it was a lot more buggy back then on my windows laptop (prob better on a mac). Recently I have used the ipad on trips and sometimes at home. Other than not being able to view flash, the ipads worked great. If you are into drawing/graphics and writing by hand then the Notes blows the ipad out of the water. If you are only going to watch movies then the display on the recent Ipads is better (although I like the speakers on the Note better and the lower resolution doesn't bother me that much). The ipads are a hair smoother and maybe more consistent but I never noticed it that much. Anyway, you need to decide what you want to do with it and the answer should be clear.

It's great to have an iPad and a Note 10.1
I use both as they both have useful feature that the other doesn't. I do muchly prefer the Note but the iPad is useful for a select few things the Note can't do.

I would hold on to the Ipad 2 if you can afford note 10.1 buy one from best buy. In the 29th day from purchase date decide if you want to keep the note 10.1 or return it because BB has a 30 days return (no restocking fee) "here in Los Angeles".
My experience with the Note 10.1 is really great. I use it mainly to play games and snapshots/jot down notes on the image/use it for shopping. Also I haven't used my Moto Atrix 2 other than to make a phone call, mainly because the tablet is more convenient to use rather than my android phone. I'm actually thinking of downgrading phone or getting those good camera phone like nokia 808 to replace my atrix 2 and remove my data plan.
Hope you make a good decision ^_^v

run IOS :victory:

And people think this a plus? Being able to run a locked down system that has no real originality or ability to customise to how I want or need?
Note wins hands down....

Just scored one on eBay with a case and a 32gb sd card for a pretty good deal. Well test it out when I get it (hopefully by Saturday or Monday) and decide..

Uhhm the one thing I know of is run "Speak for Yourself".
As for the original poster.
When Steve Jobs said "Who wants a stylus?", I said: "ME".
I wouldn't think of using a tablet until the Note came out, ( well OK the Thinkpad Tablet, but that was a bust )
because 80% of what I want to do on a tablet require a good pen.
I would say that if there are a lot of things you want to do that require a pen, think about getting the Note.
It is after all the premier feature and if you don't need it then even switching from Apple to Android you could find a better tablet.
Then I would consider the applications you use on the IPad, are there good enough equivalents If not can you live without them. If you can then seriously think about getting a note.

I made the switch and found the note to be much better for reading PDFs, drawing notes, etc. However, the ipad is far far better for Web surfing, since it seems to render Web pages better and faster.

Multi Window feature is awesome. JB has also made using my Note more enjoyable as well.

I officially sold the iPad and am now very happy with the Note. I will say that web browsing is smoother on the iPad, but overall experience is better on the Note. This thing really is cool, especially after flashing a stock based custom rom.

I need help

I love Android! Had hero-evo-photon-3d-evo lte-s3 and now I'm getting kind of bored with it..
Considered WP but no apps is a major no no. And well I've been considering iPhone 5 until s4 comes out or next big android.
Is this normal?! Please help me!

There are tons of new phones out that are great as well as many new ones always around the corner, just take the plunge and pick one that suits your needs and has a good ongoing development. Good luck my friend.

I say stick with the S3, I still have an S2 and I don't feel the need to upgrade just flash some new roms. iPhone 5 is garbage, the iPhone can fit in the screen of the S3, and it bigger and just as thin and I think even lighter

What is an i5? or i4?

iPhone 5 and iPhone 4

Ah ok, hows that going so far? I can imagine everything "just works" as they say, lol

I mean yeah it works but so does android... First off I love iTunes! It's so cool plugging in phone at night and it automatically copies itself, the iPhone 5 is just so insanely fluid and fast! Camera is same as my Evo lte. Overall it's just nice having something that never stutters, no missing pics of kids due to lag, or anything like that. Idk just want something new until android is completely fluid.

I hear ya, hopefully the next version is smooth

Man I honestly love iPhone... Never thought I'd say that

Tab 2 or...

Need some advice from users please,
Is the tab 2 still a decent huy? I cant justify that much money on the note 10.1, tab 2 or should i wait for the new asus memo pad thats out in a week or so?
How do good games play on the tab 2? Direcory bind works i guess? It will just be stock rooted.
Any answers would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I can say the Tab 2 7.0 isn't bad at all for the price. Stock does have IR but overall I love it. Although you will want some other opinions first
Sent from my ThunderBolt using xda premium

that's way too subjective.
if i could go back in time i'd take the nexus 7 32GB and avoid the "external SD" crap from this samsung. but overall sound, screen, speed, everything's good.
just compare prices and characteristics.
i bought to read books and watch videos mainly, playing games is just a plus.
i can tell you watching videos is great in this thing, very nice sound and screen resolution yet is my first tablet.
i guess if you're onto gaming go for the nexus which has 4 cores and excellent resolution. i ignore the characteristics from the other tablet you mention.
also i do not know the prices as i'm in latin america and everything's like 30% more expensive than in US or Europe (can you believe that? less income per capita and more expensive technology...pff!)

The thing is i had the N7 byt it became redundant when i got my note 2 size wise maybe i should of said i will be getting a ten inch version.. If it can handle real racing 3 im sold

Waiting for the Note 8. Had the Tab 2 7.0 for a long time but it seemed slow and the screen wasn't that great.
Note seems like an overall better package. I wonder what the next Nexus 7 will look like.

Yeah pic was taken with my old Galaxy S3, possibly the most beat up phone I have ever seen, where every function still works! The Note 2 is sold and outbound tomorrow, Note 1 has bids, so only a matter of time before the Note 3 is all alone...well except for one ugly ass S3!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk 2

Still using my Note i717 here, really want the Note 3 but at the same time I'm still loving this one. Skipped the Note 2 because of its resolution but 3 fixes that issue. I'm at least waiting for CM support before I buy one. No intentions of selling this i717 though, I'll find some other use for it definitely, maybe try putting Debian or Ubuntu on it since I could leave it in non-functioning states without being without a phone.
