Consider Sony Xperia Z as backup? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Just like everyone else here I am absolutely loving my note. Hands down the best phone I've had yet. But I was wondering if anyone is curious about the Xperia Z. Watched a few videos, visited the site and just went through the specs. It might not be all around as great as the note 2, but its going to be a close competitor. With the 13 mp camera I am positive I'll be using my upgrade in October to get one, assuming Verizon offers it.

I've been looking at it to, it's a sweet looking device! The only thing (as usual) is the less than steller battery compared to the Note 2.

I won't be looking for a while. I am extremely happy with the note 2. Last device I will be getting for maybe even two years

Well I will probably still mostly use my note 2, but I have an upgrade in August. Why not at least use it, try the phone, and if I don't like it i will sell and profit.

The only phone I would even consider changing from my note 2 . I absolutely love mine. Would be the note 3.

No not really, its a sweet lookin phone but the Note 2 is a beast. Also I thought it wasn't coming to Verizon? And I'm hoping the Moto X kills every phone when it finally hits, rumored to be sold on the play store with a low non contract price, killer specs and to be the first real Moto/Google phone since Google bought them and unlockable. I believe this will be my next phone.

Your opinions on this phone

So my upgrade is in a couple weeks. So I'm debating between this phone, Samsung galaxy s3, or the droid dna. What are your opinions on Samsung galaxy note 2?

Note 2 has bigger and brighter screen, and longer lasting battery than S3. Other than that, they are very similar.
DNA doesn't have a removable battery or allow you to add more storage. You're pretty much stuck with 16gig, which is what the Note 2 comes standard with, but the Note 2 allows you to expand up to an additional 64 gigs.

Don't forget the s-pen! That's the main reason I went with the note (along with screen second and battery third; and wanting to leave iOS - unrankable).
You might also wait until march to see what the S4 will offer. If you dont want to wait, most people a very very happy with their Note 2. I especially love the Note 2's battery life.
Whatever your choice is, good luck. And please search before you post. There are several people that dont mind helping, but it can be frustrating to help those who dont help themselves.

The SGS4 is likely 6-8 months off at this point. Their last release was in the summer, and every release before that was in the summer in the US (late spring internationally). If you want a phone now, I'd say get the Note 2, if you can wait, this coming summer/fall looks like it will be amazing
Well as of right now that's a rumor that the s4 will be out in March. Also I have a lg revolution which is the worst phone I ever bought

The international release has been 3-4 months before US Carrier release so far, so the earliest you'd see it is June/July in the US on VZW.

Lol I remember selling that phone when I worked for Vzw. It was great at the time but now...well you already know. I got my note2 on Xmas eve and I can't think of any other device I would own at this point. The spen opens up so many options. I find myself officially spoiled after owning this. No other phone on Verizon in my opinion can rival the Note2 unless you can't deal with the size.
Even Verizon and lg said the phone sucked. That's why the released the spectrum so quick

I wasnt saying the phone will be out in march. I said wait until march to see what it will have to offer. I was referring to it being announced in march. Either ar MWC or its own event.
Just to be clear: I agree the S4 will more than likely not be available for purchase until July in the US.
On a side note: my gf cousin works for a company that plans big events for corporations. They have been working on something big for Samsung. He was in town for christmas and was pretty much on the phone (ironically an iPhone) the whole time having teleconferences with Korea. My guess is the S4 but they dont get told the actual product until a couple of weeks out.

I think the Note 2 is the best phone out right now. All phones have compromises. S3 only has 1gb of RAM, DNA doesn't have expandable storage and battery life is so/so.
I've only had the note 2 a few days, but I've been a little disappointed with battery life. I'm coming from a Rezound with extended battery (2750mah). The battery life is similar to that and the Rezound got bashed for poor battery life. I was expecting a little more. Guessing it might get better after a few charge cycles. I find myself having to charge about an hour a night. The good thing is that it is a 2amp charger so it charges fast.

The S3 and the Note 2 should never ever be compared. They are totally different devices in almost every way possible. Not bashing you kintwofan, or anyone in particular, just saying these 2 devices should not even be in the same sentence.
It's more like DNA vs S3/4, or do I want a mini tablet with a Wacom pen.
Personally at this point I recommend you wait another month for the S4 reveal and see if that floats your boat OP. I would never recommend an S3 to someone, it's 2013. Especially not a US variant S3 which has horrible specs compared to most devices released in the last 6 months. So you want someone who owns a Note 2's opinion OP? Wait a month.

Im on Clean Rom, and since the phone is near perfect, hasnt really been a need for any of the devs to do any work.
I have both the Note 2 and S3 and prefer the S3 over the Note. Both phones are great, but I personally like the S3 better. The S3 is stock / rooted and the Note 2 is stock / unrooted which may have something to do w/ it. It seems there's more to do with the S3 as far as the Dev community, it's not too big and I have never had any issues with it. I've had the Note 2 for about 4 weeks now and sometimes it won't send a text message until I restart the phone.

The Note2 is light years ahead of the iPhone 5. Apple has a lot of catching up to do!
Yeah I've been an Android user since the g1 and couldn't think of ever using an iPhone. My wife loves her iPad but was tired of carrying that thing around so she traded her Samsung Alias (old ass flip phone) for the iPhone 5. After two days of use she complained about how small it is and her eyes were hurting from looking at it even with the enlarged font. So she went back to Verizon and got the same phone as me, the white Galaxy Note 2. She's been loving that thing since she entered her gmail address into it. She loves the size because its way bigger than that iPhone yet smaller than her tablet.

Same here, bro. At first I was like, what did I do, this thing is too big, can't use it one handed, but after 1 solid week of use, I was in love. Now after 3 months of use, I can't imagine using anything else. The "bigness" goes away very quickly. It looks normal size to me now. Anytime someone says,Damn that's a big phone, I am like, whaaa?
This phone seems small to me now that ive been using it for 2 months lol
I've had this phone for 2 weeks now and finally got used to the size (but I just picked up a UAG case and it feels big again). Switched from an iphone 5, but iOS is crap. Loving all of the customization with pacman rom.

As the OP pointed out, it felt like a downgrade. The S4s screen is pretty nice but I found it ate through the battery pretty quick when it was on. The S4 dropped to 3g in places my Note would hold 4g. The S4 didn't seem as smooth as the Note with a rom on it. It just didn't feel worth the money.

The screen wasnt that big of a differnce. There was a lot of lag everywhere, from the camera to making a call and all that smart stuff wasnt what i thought. There was a few flaws, but everybody feels different about things. U have 14 days to return it..just make sure u go to the corporate store,if not u have to pay an $80 restocking fee.

I'm in a similar situation. I picked up the S4 Thursday, played with it for a day, and hated it. The camera was laggy (0.5-1 second shutter lag), the UI and apps themselves were laggy, it felt like I downgraded because of the smaller screen and the battery life was a lot worse. I went back to my Note 2 for the weekend and thought about returning the S4.
Then last night I decided to give the S4 another shot. I did a factory reset, installed my apps again (except I only installed what I REALLY used, which is about 60 apps), rooted, and froze/uninstalled a TON of apps and processes using Titanium Backup. After customizing it even more it's been much better in terms of performance and battery life. The screen is amazing on the S4, it's much brighter, whiter, no jagged edges on text (MBP > MBP Retina), easily viewable in sunlight, etc.
I thought back to when I first got my Note 2 and realized that the S4 is still brand new, when the Note 2 was new it was also laggy and full of bloatware. The S4 is only going to get better as OTA updates come out to fix these few minor issues, and once devs start to build solid ROM's it's going to be just as reliable as my Note 2 is on Beans 17.
I enjoy having a phone that I can actually fully use in one hand, fit in my pocket without being uncomfortable while sitting, and more importantly actually be able to fit it in cupholders!

But the note 2 wasn't laggy even with Verizon bloat and a ton of apps. I used it for a while stock, non rooted and it was just ask fact as it is on a custom Rom. I really feel like the snapdragon CPU's are just inferior to exynos. Plus it never gets hot.

i would trade in a heart beat, once you get use to the size you will never go back to a smaller screen.

You can unlock the bootloader yourself.
I just came to the note2 from an s3 and love it. I don't know if I'd give an extra 50 $ though. Negotiate that down to 25 if you really want it. It was a worthy upgrade as far as I'm concerned.

The s3 has 2gb of ram as well. The CPU on the note 2 is the difference. It has a quad core as opposed to the s3's dual core.
Sent from my KitKat note 2
Apparently there were some variations depending on carrier/nation. It could have a quad core or a dual core, 1 gigabyte or 2 gigabytes of RAM.
In any case, I find the Note II to be very worthwhile. I recommend taking the plunge if you're looking for a large screened, well-built phone.

Switching from note 3

Hey fellow members I currently have a note 3 on Verizon... U know spec wise the note is more powerful but my girlfriend recently got a one max and I'm liking what I see.... Anybody here coming from a note 3.. Can tell me.... How's battery life... How's the experience will I miss the slightly newer processor.. Is the radio reception on par or better?... How's Ron development?... I just need feedback so I'll know I'm making a good decision... Thanks guys
I had a Note 3 too and I don't really miss it at all. The battery life is about the same. I have yet to find anything that I can't do on the One Max that I could do on the Note 3. (Subtracting all the S-Pen stuff, of course.) In my personal opinion, radio reception is at the very least on par with. ROM development is growing and you don't have to worry about KNOX blowing out any chance of a warranty. All in all, I'd recommend the move.

I've got my note 3 since two month now and it's really a great device. But every day I think about switching to the max.
Before the note 3 I got the very first note and now I think it would be nice to have something different.
This spen stuff is not bad but to be honest I don't really need that. Sometimes it's quite useful but I think I can live without that.
I hope that the community will grow in the next weeks.

Then only lacking factor is the camera.

I think i can tolerate it I don't take many pics with my phone and I did a brief comparison with my note cam and my girlfriend's max cam and the note was better in the day time (not mind blowing though) but at night and in dim areas the shots looked more natural with the max... So i think I could deal with the camera downgrade..

I was only referring to the front cam.
So the front cam is bad on the max.? . (haven't tested it)

I'm not sure I see rumors of the regular sized one getting kit kat soon so hopefully the max is right on its heels
