Iphone or galaxy note 2?

It's the exact same thing as the note 1, just with a little bigger screen.

Disagree. It has 1.6ghz quad core processor, 2gb of ram, and 64gb maximum card size.

Its almost like saying the iPhone 5 is the exact same thing as the iPhone 4... Just with a little bigger screen

Had the Note 2 for 2 weeks. Awesome device. Battery is great with the 3100mah battery. (about the same as the 5)
+big screen
+great OS (jelly bean), touchwiz is really good now.
+sd slot: only for media, apps stay in main memory
+stylus is neat

-big phone: one handed operation is tricky
-bloat from carrier: very glas iOS has no bloatware
-amoled: good for some people, too saturated and dim for me.
-limited storage: apps only go on main memory, which is ~11GB.

Overall the Note 2 is a great device. I took it back because I wanted iOS which integrates better with my iPad 4.

Galaxy Note 2 is so cool, it's like having a portable computer in your hand, really! Give it a test run at one of your stores and if you like it, get it you won't be dissapointed!

It was a reference to him saying the 4 and 5 were exactly alike. And one version of the original note had 2gb of ram and I thought all android's has 64gb sd cards?

i know the note 2 can be upgraded to 120gb sd card. the iphone doesnt go past 64gb.

the iphone is stuck in 2007.. and seems to go down hill since steve jobs passed away.

i looked at the note 2 today but the guy standing inside of sprint was telling me i made a good pick with the 5. of course, u work here and i was wanting to return it......

i use twitter, facebook, tumblr ect all the time. i promote music artists and i stay on the phone 24/7 with clients.

iphone or N2 better for business related?

Since you use the phone / messaging part a lot, the Note 2 is hands down the better choice. You can actually block calls/messages from individual users or as a whole like you expect it to, unlike Apple's half-baked do not disturb mode that doesn't work. The Note 2's just work.

And I like this picture comparing the two phones:



iPhone 5: Please don't eat me!
Note 2: I'm gonna enjoy munching you, punny one!

my iphone 5 battery is really damn good maybe you guys dont know about some app running in the background. then again i only bought voice and text this month so no LTE usage. next month im gonna buy 4g again hopefully the battery wont show what everyone else keeps reporting D;

I've had an iPhone the past 4 years and decided to buy the Note II after owning the iPhone 5 for a couple of weeks. Phone runs very smooth with no lag or hiccups. Screen is amazing for web browsing and videos. Battery life lasts forever. I was able to get 3.5 days with moderate use on a single charge. (normally have to charge every other day). Love the notification system and led light. I have widgets set up for my calendar, tasks, emails so they're easily accessible. That alone has helped me with productivity.

Note 2 is too big for me, personally. But the iPhone 5 is too tall/skinny/thin for me as well.

That's why I've remained using an iPhone 4S, it's just perfect for me. Do what suits you best -- don't depend on the opinions of others.

LOL.... i knew the note was big, but holy crap, i think it's bigger than some people's heads lol....wow....

I have owned and used every iPhone released and loved them but am currently using a Note 2. First android I have owned that I don't see me moving away from anytime soon. I was able to find applications that made syncing with my Apple products seamless. If Apple doesn't wow me with the 5s/6 I will be staying with the Note. First time I have said that after the iPhone first came out.

One thing I am VERY happy to see is that cell phone makers and Android are giving Apple a run for their money. Think this will only make Apple improve the iPhone and iOS.

Very true....i think we'll see big changes to iOS in 2013

get the note. I have had the iphone 5 for a couple of months now after upgrading from the 4s, and it seems quite boring, honestly i wish i had the note. The notes screen is amazing. yes you cant use it with one hand, but its much better. also its about the same speed in general plus u get nfc and that awesome s pen!

go with the note, because if you dont you eill be sorry

Yes you can.

Ok I didn't read everyone's posts but here's my opinion I had the note 2 for 39 days and I've got the 5 now the note 2 is an amazing phone battery was amazing, I miss this most of all and am disappointed in apple in this field. Now I've had iphone 3,4, and now 5, EVO, photon, blackberry bold, and others as well, but I have a disease where I have to have the latest phone. Anyway the Note 2 does so much but I found that I didn't use those things unless showing it off. Now that I have a iphone again I don't miss the big screen and big phone it feels good texting I don't have to mess with samsungs stupid keyboard, but the battery life is the only thing I miss

im stuck between the N2 and the I5. I dont like how you cant put the N2 in your pocket comfotably. I also think the I5 screen could be a little bigger. The note's screen is nice and big on the other hand. Im sub'd for this thread for sure.
