Wanna get either Note 3 or Note 2.

Which one do you think ?

Note 3 : around RM2030
Note 2: around RM1450

which the price difference is huge.

Thx.

If I am a normal user, do you think I should spend the extra to get Note 3?
I think Note 2 also a beast already.

Sometimes it's also about budget. Note2 is fine for all uses except for maybe some very new games.

to me I felt that note 2 is a slow phone, used for 1 month sold off for nexus 4... maybe note 3 will be a better choice.

If money wasn't a constraint, I would say go for N3. Every of us is normal user & definitely be happy if the phone you bought can do more, if you have extra money.

If you just a normal user, never bother on how great the screen looks like, I not said Note II screen really bad, but it ain't that good as Note 3. Note 3 screen is far nicer in color reproduction and sharpness. Note 3 is one of the accuracy screen in market when you set Movie mode, well review by a lot professional site like DisplayMate and Anandtech.

Or never bother on how fast it is, and never play much games.

Then Note II is enough for you, as I believe most features of Note 3 will appear for Note II also in coming updates.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
But I still encourage you go for Note 3 if money is not an issue and if you seldom change phone, then Note 3 is far better and more future proof than Note II. At least I won't think they is any issue on any apps in Note 3 for at least coming 2 years cycle.

Buy according to budget,not according to wish.

note 2 is NOT a beast, it's a lazy fat cat, lag as hell. note 3 is just miles better than it's older brother, it's fitter and faster. problem is, the nexus 5 will be coming out in a couple of months and if u don't have that much of a budget, nexus 5 is better.
