smooth??? compared to the S3 it's considered smooth, compared to Nexus it's crap.  touchpiss is just horrible, period

biggrin.gif Althought touch wiz slows things down but there's some notable features in those touch wiz phone that's very usable and comes in very very handy. For example, multiwindow by samsung. It will be awesome if and only if Google will consider adding multi window straight into Android for all devices or selected devices with certain screen size (> 5" perhaps).

If that comes true, then that's what multitask is. Having to switch between apps through "Recents" just can't be called "Multitask" because you can run only one app in the foreground. Serial processing, not parallel processing biggrin.gif

You really hate Samsung n I can see that based on all your past postings. I disagree with you about Note2 being not as smooth as Nexus. I have also used N4, galaxy nexus n Nexus one. Using the word crap is terrible. I have also used before S3 n S4. Infact I have used many other androids ( see my signature). I do not think Samsung phones are that bad. If you don't like touchwiz ( I don't like it either) can always replace it with 3rd party launchers. Infact I don't like nexus default launcher n I always use nova or holo in all my androids

my nexus 4 screen cracked at the edge (bottom right, near the pulse light), but doesn't affect my touchscreen though. Where can i find skin for nexus 4 to cover the crack?
If i want to replace my screen, how much does it cost?

Touchwiz.. haha, replacing the launcher only changes your homescreen and app drawer. The Setting app, recent apps, stock apps (calendar, etc) are all fugly as hell. Unless you flash a custom ROM with stock android look.

Multi window is quite useful. But N4 has the infamous HALO. (Though you can flash non official PA on Note 2)

One thing: N4 looks more premium biggrin.gif With the buttonless navigation keys --> PIE control. Simply love it more than anything else.

I will say note 2 is as smooth as n4. But too big screen for me.

And note 2 camera and battery life is definitely better than n4. This is fact.

well, it is not about sharpness, it is about hardness ... metal are usually much softer than glass, so they can't scratch . but sand is harder so they can ... simple as that ...

Put it this way...

Do you know what glass is made of?

Glass is made of Silica (Silicon dioxide).

Then... Do you know where can we find Silica?

Sand.

So basically, the most fundamental element in glass is sand. Maybe there's a specific type of sand to be used to make glass. Those tempered glass/corning gorilla glass/dragon trail all has additional chemicals added to make them stronger but their most basic element is still glass.

Since we know metal can scratch metal, rock can scratch another rock. Diamond can be used to cut diamond and can only be cut by diamond. Then... Why can't sand scratch a glass?

It might be a very fundamental thing in our daily life but it's the deadliest for a piece of glass. biggrin.gif

OOps... Sand is not the deadliest because getting scratched is consider small problem compared to cracking it. Gravity force and impulsive force exerted on the glass is the deadliest biggrin.gif
