[Q] N9000 or N9005?

Considering the S4 mess with octa core support I'm not sure on what Note3 cpu model to follow... I'm tempted to get the N9000 because of the promised extra power of the cpu, also I'm living in a development country without LTE support. But previous experience with S4 cpu (currently got an I9500) is making the decision not so easy. Any input or opinion is welcomed.
Thanks.

I'm going to buy a Note 3 too and even though there is no LTE support in the country i live in, i'd prefer the reliability and core clock speed of qualcomm snapdragon 800 to the so-called octa core exynos chipset. And plus there are more roms for i9500 which is the LTE version and im thinking that this tradition will continue.

More roms for the i9500?
surely a typo... there are far more roms for i9505 which is the Snapdragon 800 variant.
Thanks for your input.

I much prefer the Snapdragon to the Exynos setup. The Exynos solution consists of two quad-core processors, one with more processing capability and higher power requirements, one with lower (seems kind of like a less efficient version of Tegra 3's five core setup) - Having one more powerful, efficient quad core is a better solution IMO, even if they enable heterogeneous processing across both quad cores in the Exynos setup. Mobile apps will benefit from more single and lightly threaded performance than multi-threaded capability IMO.

Sorry i meant i9505 as i said that i liked snapdragon 800(N9005) version better.

Understood. Thanks again for the comments.
BTW, just get a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 32GB LTE (AT&T) (Unlocked) from Negri Elect. $744.50 usd, shipping 10/3.
The only issue is the waiting time to get it.

Apart from the CPU difference there is the HD video one as well.
The N9000 records at 1080p 1920x1080 while N9005 records at 4K 3840 x 2160
I think this proves that the octacore is a indeed more powerful and can handle 4K video recording.

Except it's the S800 version that's able to record 4k video.. N9005 is the Snapdragon 800 version and during IFA Samsung specifically said that 4K recording was only available on the S800 variant. I find it strange that the Exynos version doesn't support it.

so which one is best for tmobile( hspa+ AND lte )? n9005? I hope so, because I'm tired of the missing exynos drivers. Snapdragon800 please

I will be getting N9005,just because of the higher CPU clock,and better development support.

s800 version not supporting non European countries sim cards?
Did you get the news guys?
This is a total mess!!
I Wonder if there is something we can do.
But are there any benchmarks to tell us more about n9000 ?

What? That's got to be some corporate cellular pprovider money grubbing monkey business. Thanks for the heads up

I got the 9005 model and it is very stable and smoth.
When I first used it the heat generated on the back was too much. But then it settled down.
Now it heats a bit also. I did not have this experience with my last note 2.
I hope someone who has access to both devices can test for that and let us know..

I just watched review about n9000 vs n9005
is it true that n9000 has more total ram and internal storage compare to n9005?

i have the n9005 and the internal storage is 26.36gb, i guess they tested on a pre-release/ carrier rom. Total ram is 2440mb.

From what I've seen in terms of benchmarks the n9005 is faster. In terms of rom support I guess the S800 version will get more roms and cm.

I am still cant take choice
Hi all
Now i have n900 , i feel camera not good for take picture for moving things even in sport mode , i will buy another one to my friend and i want to gave him good advice if n9005 will be better and faster , because camera is one of important thing , also he will use it replacing by his tablet that mean hard work so what you think n900 or n9005 , LTE for us not important now Fast and stability is our issue.

Exynos Vs Snapdragon
I'd love to see various benchmarks/power consumption statistics with different cores on/off.
A-7's 1 on at min clock
A-7's all 4 at max clock
A-7's overclocked/undervolted
4 A-7's and 1 A-15 all at max clock
just 4 A-15's
a single A-15 at min clock
All 8 at max clock
all 8 undervolted/overclocked
These all are necessary to know before considering the N9000.
If this info is not available, the N9005 is the clear choice.

If you see the rom support as of now the n9005 is already winning in those terms.

4K in Exynos or Snapdragon?

As I recall in the revealing event, they said that the 4K video will be available on selected models??
I hope its going to be on the Snapdragon model, but any information on which model woll support it?
Regards

The snapdragon one will support 4K

Correct. I recorded a brief 4K video on the S800 Note 3 this weekend. 31s of video was 177mb, video bitrate 48Mbps.

I own the N9005

^^^ Ditto
Sorry to tell you, only the SM-N9005 Snapdragon has 4k recording.

O M G, whta is the different between N9005 and N900, I bought in indonesia.

N9005 - using Snapdragon 800 processor, support 4K Video Record, LTE support.
N900 - using Exynos 5420 processor, no 4K Video Record, No LTE support.

If you don't have a 4k television to play it on, there is no need to fret.

N900 or N9005?

Hello,
I am aware of the hardware differences between the two models. Fortunately, both are available in my country and I can take my pick. From what I gathered there is absolutely no reason to buy the N900 when the N9005 is available, or am I missing something? Would anyone buy a N900 if they could get the N9005 just as easily?
Thanks,

I had the option to pick either, obviously I picked the N9005 as you should too as you've seen the hardware differences aha.
The only difference that I am aware of is that the N9005 is 4G LTE, whereas the N9000 is not.
I don't have 4G on my current plan at the moment but will be getting it in February.

Exactly, my country doesn't support 4G so that's why. I'll be receiving my N9005 today. The 4K video recording and sd800 are worth the extra 50 bucks. Thanks!

imo really hard to choice. yes 4k recording and snapdragon performance is a huge advantage over 900 one but that sound quality think makes me think again. i dont have 4k display device, my computer monitors are all 1080p like the note3 so i have no chance to watch the 4k videos that a shoot but i will see the sound quality advantage of n900 while listening to music.

Tab A 10.1 (2016) HEVC support

Hi,
I'm looking to upgrade my trusty Nexus 7 (2013). I've been watching some HEVC / H.265 compressed TV shows / movies recently and the Nexus can't seem to cope any longer. This tablet seems like a good buy at under £200. I was also looking at the Huawei Mediapad M3 Lite and Lenovo Tab 4 8 Plus, all around the same price. I like the fact the screen can go over 500nits and I've got a Samsung S8 which I'm really happy with.
Would anyone recommend this as a good media consumption device? It'll mainly be used for Plex, Netflix and playing TV/Movies from the SD card. Can it play 1080p HEVC compressed files without a hitch? That's the deal breaker for me. I think this Exynos chip can decode H.265 native but I'd like to know what real-world use is like before investing.
Thanks in advance.

I have played HD Bluray 1080p on my Tab A 10.1 with s Pen. It plays it fine using VLC video player app. If I use the stock video app, I get no sound. I have both tablets: Tab A 10.1 & Tab A 10.1 with S Pen. The S pen version has a slightly bigger battery and 3 GB of ram. It's really difficult to kill the battery all in one day of use. I'm not a heavy user, so I rarely charge it.
