been thinking of getting either a Samsung Galaxy III or a Note 2.......

Just one thing bugging me is the size of the Note 2. While it's great for reading and browsing, i will probably need to carry it around in my handbag. Anyone can comfortably carry it in your jeans? i doubt so....

And why is getting a Note 2 better than getting a Galaxy III (apart from the drawing pen)?

Did any of you guys regret getting a Note 2 instead of the Galaxy III? Screen size really not much different i think...
*
1) I can carry it around in my jeans easily. The phone maybe big in surface area but the slimness makes it easy to put into jeans
2) Way better battery life, bigger screen, double the ram
3) No regrets. In fact S3 totally did not interest me at all.

ok.....seems like generally ppl here prefer their Note 2 over the S3.....

one more thing, with the NFC thingie and security, is it safe? Can we disable NFC in the phone, as some have posted here videos of security risks etc....

i'm from an ifag background where there's no need for antivirus, and worries of malicious threats, so i'm curious bout how you guys safeguard your private data or cc info...

thx for your comments!  icon_rolleyes.gif
*
Of cos u asking in note 2 thread people MOST probably prefer note 2. rolleyes.gif

NFC can turn off. Never needed any antivirus app and never had any problems.

im using just a normal waist pouch. thinking of getting a better one coz i travel a lot and i hate putting stuff in my pocket tongue.gif

so any recommendations?
im using perseus kernel(latest from xda).

yup. my power saving is on.
*
In power savings options, if you tick cpu power saving, the cpu clock maybe lock at lower freq (forgot what oledi i think its 1ghz) so you may experience lag. Try unticking it and test back.

Guys

Normally it would take me around 2 hrs+ to get a full charge. Is there any charger or so called 'fast charger' to chat can charge my Note II less then the quoted time?
*
And an addition, the charging its limited by the battery so u probably can increase slightly more but not much.

Toss a coin and just pick one. Most are the same, difference mainly in their themes and support.

some of them are insufferable, claiming that dark blacks is washing out detail..

if that were my friend, i'd personally bludgeon him to death with my phone charger.

i can't believe how uneducated the people there really are

Hey folks.
I'd call myself a note 2 newbie. Just got myself a note 2 from Samsung centre at KLCC like couple weeks ago.

Been trying to comprehend all the complicated discussions here but didn't resolve any of my queries.

1. Do you guys use a GPS application for the note? Eg. Garmin etc. If you do, any idea which shop selling good reliable one?
2. What are the must get applications that you guys have in common for the Note 2?
*
1. Garmin no support android cry.gif Offline navigation papago,sygic. Online navigation Waze. Partial online navigation Gmaps.
2. Depends what you want to use your device for.

Noobi3, i agree.. what is mentioned and what is replied does not make sense.

sometimes, if someone wants to sound smart about "multi-rom" (whatever the what is that) please explain it clearly and in a simple manner that educated people can understand

Hi all,

Anyone can help provide input if we need to install anti virus on our note 2? Example like AVG free anti virus....

Thanks... not sure if the anti virus will eat up the phone system resources...

Do not really need antivirus. Anti theft is more useful.
