head to head comparison
(my own 2cents, multiple by 25 then it will be 50cents

)
1. in terms of comfortable on hand:
GalNex>SGSII>GalNote (all naked)
2. in terms of screen attractiveness:
GalNote>SGSII>GalNex (if u din go compare the pixel shits, SGSII's screen will give u a fake impression.
3. in terms of camera quality:
GalNote>SGSII>GalNex. however zero lag shutters and the modded Camera ICS that can enable silent shutter makes it my favourite, if u get wat i mean
4. in terms of transition animation smoothness:
GalNote>SGSII>GalNex. seriously wtf is wrong with GalNex's transition animation?
5. browsing experience: (all using stock browser)
GalNote>GalNex>SGSII. well bigger is better, and the reason GalNex is edging over SGSII is because ICS's browser is better than GB's.
6. ergonomy of use:
GalNex>SGSII>GalNote. my palm too small
7. gaming:
GalNote>SGSII=GalNex. GalNex wins in terms of compatibility, but dun have samsung appstore or games hub make me so sad
8. battery life:
this one no need compare. GalNote wins it all. but standby power preserving i can say GalNex is better than SGSII. but when on actual usage i feel that SGSII can last longer compare to GalNex
9. navigation
GalNex wins like hell. while using GalNote i need to wait around 10 secs for gps to trace my location, but on GalNex its like almost instant. SGSII? :yaoming's face:
10. storage
this one no need compare la, GalNex is not in the same league to play.
11. connectivity
GalNote>SGSII>GalNex
while NFC is not widely used yet and i'm too lazy to dig out my BH505 from the hell packs of boxes, GalNex's wifi direct pissed me off. the function is there, but cannot initiate nor get connected. i dun noe wat's going on but seems like everyone is having the same issue. btw tried connect my GalNote with MHL+HDMI and play asphalt 6 on my home's toshiba 42", works like charm
conclusion: GalNote really stands out. SGSII and GalNex dun have much diff. both have their pros n cons. only when SGSII got the official ICS and GalNex's ICS version is stabled then oni can compare again. but once u tried GalNote on ur hand, u'll nvr head back for smaller screens.
feel free to challange my conclusion, afterall usage pattern and preference is different from one to another.
Navigation for all the phones are fast, if you use 3G, I used 3G on S2, and within 1 second the maps appears already.. Superfast..

Hmm same feeling in terms of difference, but I don't prefer either screen. Both are ok for me

Nice summary dude

Wanted to get Note, but so far the units I've played with (stock) aren't as smooth/fast as S2, probably because of the larger screen/higher pixel count?
Not sure what your experience is currently though with new firmware etc. The units I've played with are at Samsung Gardens, Pyramid and a friend's unit (not very savvy, so not rooted or updated or whatever I suppose)
I have to agree with you, when I first bought Note, without any apps installed, I used and I noticed quite a decent amount of lag when scrolling left and right, I feel it's because of the large screen, actually when I was scouting for the non-G, I went to ask a shop, the owner ask me, why are you looking for non-G, I replied coz G version lag and hang, then he ask me to get Note, I say also lag, and then he was speechless.. But it's the truth..
