I wish I could express how sad this thread makes me, if I remember this is supposed to be a site for development. If there's anything to discuss here it's that you might see 300-400 megs of RAM more than your current and LTE will chew through that measly battery. If you always pre-order the latest greatest you'll be a man with very little money and not much to show for it. 200 dollars for an LTE radio which will destroy battery life and a few hundred megs of RAM. As one guy said the Note would at least be a different phone and probably a better investment, either that or keep your current GS3 and get an LTE capable tab. Every single experience I've had with LTE on my phone leads to general dissatisfaction due to it dying half way through the day. Anyway pointless thread, stop blowing money on pointless stuff enjoy what you have.
*steps off soapbox*
Best wishes

Why would he want to choose the Note 2? If I could choose again I would stick with the S3. Your preference is not everyone else's.

I've a year or so left on my contract anyway and my current provider "3" doesn't offer an LTE service at the moment anyway, so I'll just wait and see how the LTE market matures here in the UK.
At the moment I have unlimited data including tethering and that suits me just fine.. "3" are just rolling out the latest version of HSPA+ with support for theoretical speeds of 42Mbps so Im hoping that will give me most of a good balance of speed and battery life.

Please, step down from that high horse of yours. The general section is for stuff that isn't really development related, and if this discussion cannot be held here, it would have been locked by now. You want development related activities, relocate yourself to the development forums on this very site.
Just because you have had a bad experience with LTE devices, doesn't mean OP will. Yes, it consumes more battery and RAM than a non-LTE capable phone, but there are people who don't mind. Personally, I won't buy an LTE phone, because 3G suits me more than enough, but that's me.
If this thread makes you sad, why did you feel the need to drop a useless comment showing it? You would have saved approximately 10-20 seconds (give or take) by not posting that comment.

not really useless considering the fact, despite I don't really like the idea of this thread I still answered OPs question. Xda-Developers isn't about developing anymore?(I need to section myself off to a specific "development thread" instead of discussing general things about the phone) there will always be something better than what you have making a thread to point out you're not satisfied is fairly pointless. Arguing with someone who tells me to get off my high horse is another. General forum is general discussion about the gt-i9300 Samsung Galaxy S III not about what you're going to buy next week or what else is better. enjoy your damn device.

Development is strict development only, but just because it says general doesn't give anyone the right to flood it with topics that don't even have a relation to your device. Saying you don't like Samsung because they made a different variant of the phone or perhaps "better" is silly anyway.

"F U Samsung" seems pretty satisfied mate.
You had it coming. You act like what you say was important, when it was unnecessary.

Yes there is a fair few but most of them are not against the rules and therefore you have no right telling someone what they can and can't post, that's up to the mods.
If you don't like those posts then don't post on them because they will eventually go a few pages in front, you posting in them is just bumping them back to the top.

Everyones moaning and crying about the nexus one being outdated by newer phones such as the incredible and the evo but technically they're all outdated since the htc scorpion is going to be "whats hot". Its really annoying how some of these people are so concerned about being outdated. Appreciate what you have and make the best out of it.
I think
The nexus is still the top phone, which is why I ordered one yesterday even with all the new phones out, this is my reasoning.
Even with a1.5 processor, our nexus can be clocked to a stable 1.2 at least, and with that speed I font believe a phone actually Needs more because my nexus already flys.
That's just my input on this outdated deal.

If you always MUST live on the "Bleeding Edge" with the best of everything, you will run out of blood and run out of money.
The way I see it, living always on the newest hottest thing out there are for the people with more money than brains.
Yes, I have a Nexus One, I bought it BRAND NEW, but my total out of pocket expense was $140.00, because I sold or traded stuff I had, but stuff I could sell to get the money I needed to get this phone.
So it would not be worth it for me to try and get the next new hot thing out there because I love my N1 and would be hard pressed to see something pass this one up.
I have played with TONS of new android phones that are not out yet (MyTouch Slide, what a joke) and NONE of them are anything that even gave me a slight twinge of wanting to jump off the N1 scene.
these threads are lame... and obviously started by people who don't even own a nexus one.
TotaL BS News...
From a Nexus owner perspective the future is not about slightly better hardware, but about adding real value to the OS.
As far as my Nexus will be updated to any future Android releases I´ll have the better phone out there...others will always have to wait for Google´s compasion.

If that’s what turns you on then fair enough. I maintain the best reason to get a Nexus One (if you accept you eventually have to plump for some phone instead of holding out forever) is that if Google does something cool it’ll pretty much definitely come to us first. And more than likely before everyone else.
But that’s just me, I’m more of a software fan.

If you are referring to me and this thread, you’ve not read it properly. Please see above.
If you are referring to people I criticised in my original post, then I think they probably do own a Nexus One, and become incredibly defensive about it. The people that don’t own one tend to just post saying how they are not going to get one and then their reasons. You can tell because the whole post usually smacks of someone trying to convince themselves of something.
I thought the Scorpion was rumored to be a tablet anyway.
BigDamHero said:
And yes for everyone debating if the Incredible or the Evo mean the Nexus is outdated you can all relax.
Because they are out of date now too – search for HTC Scorpion.
.... which I expect to also be superseded around about tea time.
It’s a point that’s been made in other threads – but you CANNOT keep up with new tech (especially phones). You’ll end up financially ruined if you try. So we can all stop going on about it now and just enjoy our Nexus Ones?

I said almost the polar opposite.
Anyway the HTC Scorpion, IF all the rumours are true will have a faster processor (1.5Ghz). Just search the name for references (as I said in my original post). Given how people are positively suicidal over a slightly better camera on the Incredible, I imagine this will not go down well. Its only a few rumours at the moment.
What I’m basically saying is the N1 is amazing and in no way obsolete just because something newer is out. There ALWAYS will be. So lets not live and die over newer phones that are going to come anyway. Thread after thread of it. Lets just bask in the glory that is the N1. Again I say see my previous posts.
I’m not trying to troll, just posting my viewpoint. What’s disturbing is you are potentially the second person to accuse me of exactly what I am criticising.

This whole thread is dumb; even with the Scorpion coming out HTC is working something to make the scorpion obsolete. Being obsolete doesn't make our Nexus any less awesome than it is.
Wow, they ALL totally missed your point. You were basically telling people to stop complaining about the Nexus One being obsolete. And they all jumped on you thinking you were the one complaining.

- Purpose of this tread is not to complain about LWP. That's why its called "Atrix Trade In" and asks "what is the best way to go about trading in an Atrix." For purposes of this thread, it doesn't matter WHY I'm doing, just the best WAY to do it.
- I know standard ways of selling a phone. Just like you can sell anything else. I'm not an idiot. That's why I asked for the BEST way to sell the phone i.e. some exchange that I may not know about where people exchange devices etc, or potential some return program through AT&T that I may not know about.

Well at least you'll admit it - that's the first step, I guess. Moron? Do you even know what the word moron means? Apparently I have "mild retardation" because I asked how to sell a phone. That makes sense.

If anyone has mild retardation, it seems to be you, because apparently you can't read (note: illiteracy is a sign of mental retardation).
Thanks for the tip on Craig's list! I'll check that out. The lag comes in when you use a launcher with animations with LWP. LWP works, just not well enough for my tastes (I bought "the most powerful smart phone in the world" so things like this wouldn't be an issue).
The OP isn't really looking for help. This is just an attempt to take a jab at the Atrix veiled as a request for assistance.

Well, I've got tons. 3G signal hanging, Pixelated pictures, low quality camera......and judging by the lack of responses (in the Q & A Forum), people have no idea whats up.

Put me on that list too.
No problems at all.
If the S3 comes I will sell the S2 and buy the S3.
Simple is that.
If any of you guys are Galaxy experts, I beg of you to take a look at this thread, check out my post toward the bottom, and tell me if you have any idea why things are the way they are.....

What has this got to do with the Galaxy S3.
You are trying to hi-jack another thread when you have been advised to take back your faulty phone in a previous thread.
As stated, others do not have this problem.
i dont think they will release GS3 to compete whit iphone 5... Come on whats the point? GS2 alredy beats iPad 2 browsing benchmark so whats the point off GS3?
Just Marketing guys. I bet that even if sumtin is improved it is just as minot as it can be. Sgs2 is Top notch!

Same here...
Also, SGS II was released on May(in Europe), i dont think they would released SGS III only 5 months later unless its not really the SGS III but a SGS I9102 or SGS I9103 or something like that which would be the same SGS II but with some selected less features to decrease its price, as happened with the SGS and their SGS I9001, I9003 and SCL...
Not to mention that i thought the released of the SGS 3 was announced to 2012(one reason, may be to analyzed Iphone's 5 new features and improve them on the SGS3)...even though they obviously may have changed their mind...
i9103 was already launched, it's the SGS2 with the NVIDIA Tegra processor instead of the Samsung's Exynos of the i9100. The S3 should be i9200.

Unsurprisingly, Another Very Positive Review of the Note

I make no apology for posting another very positive review of the Note, because it is well written and it shows everyone, especially prospective buyers, how fantastic the Note really is.
http://www.coolsmartphone.com/2011/11/30/samsung-galaxy-note-review/
Is the note really that bad to keep posting positive reviews about it ?

The Note is not bad at all, which is why there are so many positive reviews that should be posted to the forum to help newcomers decide whether to buy the Note or not.
I actually used some reviews from bigger sites to consider getting the note and also referred to 1 user review, none of them really covered the negatives or even atleast tried to go into that part (but I dont blame them) I dont fault samsung for this but only my self for not having enough information before purchasing, well actually the information was already presented to me before purchasing and I still took the plunge, good thing though Im getting my money back. Maybe the Galaxy S3 or Note2 can give me what I need.
@EarlZ: In your opinion yes - refund 9.02.12
So what ist the reason for such a destructive post?

Sarcastic or destructive, care to elaborate what makes you say that? The above statement the very gist of what I got the Galaxy Note.. based on good reviews from major sites that I trust and they failed to cover some points but it was already covered here in XDA but I still took the plunge, I found it unacceptable and asked for my money back.. isnt that what everyone does if they find the product unacceptable for their needs/expectation ?
But anyway thats your personal translation of my post, just saying what those reviews got me.

As much as I respect your decision, I'm glad to see you go. Hopefully your next device will be perfect. I can't blame you 1 bit but you have had a negative vibe for the last couple of months. But please leave in peace.

I agree completely. Finding it weird that someone who's returned his note and hates the phone keep posting to a forum for those who use it.
Sent from my superior GT-N7000 using Tapatalk
Yup, the only thing he's done here for the last two month is whining in every single thread, and if he doesn't even have the Note now, i really don't know why he's wasting his energy here.
Please move to the Galaxy Nexus section (where you'll experience the same problems).

No, it's not that bad. There are a few people who returned them, but I haven't counted too many.
extremely satisfied
if the size is not an issue go for the note
The screen is the most amazing i have ever used
The screen size is a pleasure to surf or watch videos or photos
Gaming is a pleasure
I also own the hd2 with a 4.3 inch screen and the
latest ics rom ported to it
But the moment i saw the note i was deeply in love again.
I dont feel like using the hd2 anymore its screen looks so dull and outdated.
The note is the god of all phones.
Not a single reboot. Amazing speed.great 3g surfing
I just cant imagine any reason not to go fo it

I have an S2 and a Note. I thought my S2 was the best phone I've ever used until the Note. I have read all the problems people have had but for me personally I have not experienced ANY of these issues.
The S2 was originally snappier than my Note but once I upgraded to LA4 its as fast as my S2. The S2 is a great phone but as someone else stated, if size isn't an issue I would recommend the Note. I love everything about it and still marvel at it each day.

+1 with a skyrocket. I hope to sell my skyrocket to get the ATT GNote so I will have one for LTE! My wife is going to kill me... Do you think I can pass them off as the same phone? lol!
Hey guys, will you stop quoting the Fickle Filipino Troll? Messes with my ability to ignore him.
don't be racist man, I'm Filipino and I hate EarlZ's trolling too. I agree that he doesn't have to spread his dismay on every freakin' thread.
I have att S2 and waiting for the Note. Been reading tons of great reviews, no one mentions to the cons. Should i keep believing they all great?

Why only FullHD? Why only 5.5?

Such a disappointment

Says you. I'm tired of phones getting bigger and bigger. 5.5" screen is roughly on the border of being too big for one handed use. But I'm going with it. Anything bigger I would not consider.
EDIT: That said, women prefer bigger phones...lol I see women with Galaxy Notes everywhere.
Why no waterproof? Why no 4.5? Why no 4000mah? Why no wireless charging? Why no micro SD card expansion? Why no small bezels? Why no OIS? Why no 18:9? Why no rounded screens? Why no edge display? Why no stereo speakers? Why no rear fps? Why not 350$? Why everyone is crying? Why not everyone just buy an S8 instead? Because it's still cheaper than other compatitors, alright? You still need to make some compromises.

OnePlus - from $479
S8 - $676.99
LG G6 - $476.99
Discount the premium you pay for Samsung brand, and it's not that far away.
OnePlus is slowly repeating the history of Nexus. Going from affordable to insanely expensive.

If you`re dissapointed with the OP5 specs just buy another phone and be done with it. Most users don`t care if you buy this device or not

If there was no feedback from users to manufacturers, you would still be using Nokia. XDA is the best place to deliver such feedback.
Look at google. They have been all over the place with screen sizes based on user demands.
Stop taking oneplus's defense. It's no point. I got the oneplus 3 a month after launch and I am still happy with it.
You should admit that oneplus screwd up again.
Design is poor, and except for the processor is no better than an op3/op3t, even though the price increased.

Did I even say that in my post? Did I even say anything about your opinion at all? No because neither have you. The folks on this subforum are owners of the 5. Don't see why you have to bring your bad vibes in here. Fhd and 5.5 is perfect for a phone. 2k offers nothing but bad battery life. No one is going to have a vr plugged in all the time to justify it. 5.5 is perfect for most people which is how business works. Make products for your larger audience returns more revenue thus you don't go out of business. Like it or not this phone is going to be a great competitor this year.

You must be new to marketing if you think one plus can even compete with Apple. They themselves have said they don't try to. The more you talk the more you invalidate yourself here. You aren't even providing useful information to anyone reading you're just talking smack.
Thread closed, this thread offers nothing but hate. if you want to have a healthy discussion on the pros and cons by all means open a thread in discussion and keep it civil. This thread is not and it will remain closed.
