Take a set from Harvey Norman or Senheng? I thought they packaged some gifts. Satugadget and DirectD are vaunted as good sellers here.

Seriously. There are serious flaws with the Note 2 and Android. Having said that, i have been a keen user of Apple products, but this doesn't change the fact over complaints i have accumulated over the use of Note 2 and Android. Here's my hands on review of the Note 2 since i acquired it in Nov 2012.


Resolution of screen is just not good enough. While color is good, it just doesn't stand out.

What's the beef ? 4" vs 5.5" and you still can't see clearly? Go see an ophthalmologist.

QUOTE(civic98 @ Jan 14 2013, 06:43 PM)
The touch screen has serious serious flaws, sensitivity is at most unpredictable.

Accuracy with finger is horrible, and worse with the S-Pen. You can almost NEVER get the right position with the S-Pen. The uncontrollable sensitivity makes it almost impossible to use at times. Pinch to zoom is JUST HORRIFIC to use! Lags and it just doesn't get to the level you need!
*
You have nice big app buttons on iOS for fat fingers as the most intuitive UI ever whistling.gif . Stay home fanboi.

QUOTE(civic98 @ Jan 14 2013, 06:43 PM)
The buttons, I can't recall how many times the ring volume was either turned down or muted due to the absolutely stupid placement of flimsy volume buttons.
*
NOBODY has ever complained about this, even global review sites.

QUOTE(civic98 @ Jan 14 2013, 06:43 PM)
Touch sensitive keys, with absolutely no practicability at all. Back button of which you could never predict what it does.
*
I know you're a troll, but then, ever heard of RTFM? Oh yeah, iOS has only 1 button to do everything for you, no need to think (I believe this is the hallmark statement of iSheep - "I don't need to think" - addon by me....crapple does all the thinking for you.)

QUOTE(civic98 @ Jan 14 2013, 06:43 PM)
Processor and memory, well yes it does have the top of line processor and memory but it's at most good on paper only. Serious lagging and memory hog, that it is almost unusable at most times if you don't clear the memories manually. And the processor speed is just not noticeable at all. Opening apps can be lagging at most times, which other tasks, not even close to smooth. And did i mention about the heat? Play some games and you can feel the heat of back, REAL HEAT!
*
Did you load up on all the "FreeSexyGirls wallpaper" ? It's been reported to have lags even on the best phones with that.

QUOTE(civic98 @ Jan 14 2013, 06:43 PM)
Camera is just lousy. And it's just stupid to disallow camera use when battery is low. At first it was just
unable to use flash, and then it just totally restricts camera use.

Kindly provide objective comparisons instead of baa baa isheep

Browser is NOT USER FRIENDLY AT ALL! Double tap and it zooms to a level not viewable for anything, it doesn't resize to the columns.

QUOTE(civic98 @ Jan 14 2013, 06:43 PM)
Data speed and connectivity is seriously flawed as well. Connectivity is never stable. Speed is much limited and I know for a fact it's not a issue with service provider. I have an iPhone, an iPad and the Note 2 side by side on Maxis and the Note 2 max out at 4Mbps while the other 2 goes above 10 Mbps.

fruitie kindly respond to our dear friend here.

Apps are just not up to standards. Most of which are developed for the sake of it. Not up to quality or practicability. Having said that I will not judge ALL the apps.

Kindly provide objective comparisons. Buttons not big enough for you?

Ok i just need to vent my frustration with the Note 2. There are more other complaints i have but I just need to vent it out.

So, sell it off there are many happy to offload it from you. Stay in your little pen and let the sheepdogs guide you.

LOL.. Responds here as expected. Anyway doesn't matter, as I said clearly, I just need to vent out my frustration with my Note 2.

And for those cheapos offering me mere hundreds for it, well you can keep your few cents, i dont need them.

And for those asking why am i still using, well i just own it, as well as a iPhone and also a Blackberry. And i am using all 3 at the same time. And I am 100% confident with my review being objective and straightforward. It is unfortunate to those who cant accept that individuals have rights to their own view, as much as any forum member here has the right to post.

And well, the only reason many of you guys here automatically redirects the comparison to iPhone/iOS even when it wasnt mentioned as so, guess you guys do know the inferiority of the Note 2/Android.

Bro, you see, we have provided you objective descriptions, while you have just said you are frustrated.

My avatar text states everyone is entitled to their own opinions, and we respect your expression of them, but you are here to bash a product that we are extremely happy with and find your points very flimsy, therefore we take extreme umbrage to your baseless accusations.

I took the time to segregate each point you made and asked for something objective, so please provide we are happy to compare.

AND you stated in your first paragraph you are a crapple user.

So, go stay in your iPen.

QUOTE(PeeEl @ Jan 14 2013, 07:40 PM)
1. Venting frustration is one thing. But the manner you did it leaves a lot to be desired.
2. You have side swiped every single Note2 out there. You could have said from the out-set, you are not happy with YOUR unit.
3. There are many ways to skin a cat as they say and you were not very objective even though you said you are. I will tell you why. The points you raised or problems I should say, were non existent to almost all other Note2s. So, to those who read your rantings, you were not objective. Straightforward perhaps, in fact, overly unnecessarily.
4. And lastly all could see from your sig that you own iProducts and like I said the manner of approach on your part was skewered, thus you cannot blame anyone drawing to that conclusion. If you had done it decently, for want of a better word, none, aw ok, maybe a few, will give you all the flak and if I may add, you brought it upon yourself.

This is a public forum. You can voice what you want but no man is an island and therefore you have to take cognizance of the feelings of others. If you say, you do not care, then it just shows your character or the lack of it.

Cheers.

+100 Good one bro.

My iphone 5 frend tested my note 2. and i have to agree with them with few things

spen is almost useless, i seldom use it unless i taking urgent note only. I am still a pen and paper person.

If you are new to android, it take time to get use to the entire system. Not as dumb-proof Ios interface. Even the stupids can use it, android take a certain bit of intelligent.
To compare more realistically, even lembu can use ios, but android you need to at least to be a monyet

that said, i still burthurt them when i can play game and watch movie on bigger screen compared to theirs. Best of all, my note 2 last longer than their. Walk past them and say "Ehh battery die ad?"  tongue.gif

From one of the largest churches who worship crapple:

According to a report that was just filed by The Wall Street Journal, Apple has reduced orders for various components. Two sources specifically mentioned the iPhone 5 screen, saying that orders were cut in half. Another report, from the Japanese publication Nikkei, says exactly the same thing. Both articles cite weak iPhone demand, which is starting to make us think, are more people now considering buying Android phones? Look, we know that 75% of the smartphones sold in Q3 2012 were powered by Google’s mobile operating system, but most of us still wouldn’t recommend something like the Galaxy Note II to our parents. The iPhone may not do much by our standards, but it’s pretty damn easy to use. And unlike Windows Phone, the iPhone has a huge variety of applications.

What else could be responsible for this drop in orders?

=============

WSJ are one of the largest corporate fanbois sucking on crapple milk.

Let's put this into picture okay.

Note 2 and iPhone 4s / 5 are no match for each other. Simple. One is a basic smart phone, the other is an all in one 'phablet' which allows you to have best of both world (tablet / phone) in one device.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
Most important feature of the Note 2 that has the MOST SIGNIFICANT ADVANTAGE over the iPhone 1-5? BATTERY LIFE. Can your iPhone do a full day H+ with one single charge? Let me give you the answer. No.

It's not about being a fan boy or whatsoever. It's about opening your eyes to see other things as well. Don't be a frog in a well.

Used to be a diehard iPhone fan since 07. Switched to android in 11 and I love it.
The difference between android and iOS: iOS is like living in a nice hotel. You don't have a lot of choice but it looks nice and easy to use.
Android is like buyingg your own home. Buy an really nice home (android device) and you will probably love it. You can change and customize it however you want. It's yours! You can also buy cheap.

Can't be unless you used the front face of the phone as a brace. You should have been using the bezel as a brace instead of the front face where the screen is.

Based on that post , I am always puzzled by my settings . Should i disable or left it as default

- *Don’t mess with Fast Dormancy app, if you don’t have dormancy related wakelocks, or if you don’t know your cell operator dormancy setting! And, on JB 4.1 it’s sometimes more preferable to leave it on, than to deal with some weird wakelocks, that may appear. Another case – if your operator setting for dormancy is “off”, app won’t discover it, and, actually, you may enable it instead of disabling it.

Firstly, again my very humble opinion...... (this post is directed to all, not you in particular)

If we are getting at least 4 hrs of SOT, that's HALF a typical workday. If you are IN the office (or home office), at a DESK........ FFS plug in to your pc or notebook.....while reviewing your spreadsheet or typing a 300page document, you will easily get another 10% topup. So WTF ...... you will still get 1 FULL WORKDAY of use.

I asked before, who's got a job that lets you stare at the phone for 4hours+ ? You can be ON THE PHONE for 4hrs+ but surely not SOT, as the screen goes off if you are in a call. And if you are talking for 4 hrs on the phone, again, FFS plug it to some charging outlet...
