Will do. I don't have multiple lines so I cannot run it side-by-side with my iPhone 5 but will probably do alternating weeks for month or two so that impressions are still fresh in my mind when I switch over.
I'm letting it get a full charge now but first impression--best materials and feel in hand of ANY Android device I've come across. Really is a beautiful device, especially looking straight at the front with the screen off, a big dark slab--personally love the look.
How are you going to cope going from nano sim to micro sim? With an adapter?
What a combo to play with, I'm quite jealous really!![]()

I am but I can't tell if it's causing a significant battery drain or not.
I bought the full version too, but also cannot tell if it is draining the battery much. I did turn it off for a day or so and don't recall seeing any battery improvement.
I do notice the light flashing for no reason at times.

Ok I am starting to except the fact that I'm a heavy user and just can't get great battery life :-(

Gotcha, thanks.
Me too man but I'm tweaking with the phone. I under clocked it and I'm using a tweak that works similarly to eco mode on the Optimus G to run on 2 cores.
The device feels really good, I'm loving the keyboard but hate the vibrate on every single tap lol
I'm so lazy I don't feel like having to do all that haha. My co worker told me he went 3.5 days this week on a single charge with the note 2. All I could do was LOL.
I can confirm this as well.![]()
Down to 10% after 3.5 days with just casual voice, text, email, and web browsing.
Lol he also pulled out the speed test on me. 32 down 17 up. I got 10 up and 1 down. And I was excited about it. Haha I'm carrying my charger all day. That is no fun. I was on the phone a lot though. Sigh.
Is there any way to put the phone in silent with just 1 tap ? Notifications, phone ring etc everything
Juiceman, any word on the ear piece buzz and battery drain?
Oh sorry. To be honest I think my battery is the same as my first nexus. No better no worse. And you know what? I think the earpiece buzz is still there. If it's quiet I think I can still hear it.
I'll field this one. =)
Power Toggles is your friend: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.painless.pc&hl=en
You can set it up in your pull down menu, or right on your home screen. Here's mine: can you find the sound toggle? Click to enlarge if it helps.

All one touch, baby.
I've read that it's really not a big deal. Apparently the Galaxy Nexus had it (never knew in all the time I owned it!), as did the 4S, as do/did other devices.
If I never read about the Nexus 4's ear piece buzz online, I would have never ever known about it. You have to put it to your ear to hear it, and you have to listen pretty closely.
My only concern is whether it's drawing battery voltage. My guess is no because it's just feedback, right? I don't know. According to you, no difference, so that's a good sign...
Everyone on macrumors probably thinks I'm picky as hell and I am but if I'm paying for something I would love for it to be right. Anyway... I've noticed something else. When plugged in the LG power brick has a buzzing sound too.
Last night I was going to bed and it was plugged in and I could not figure out what the hell was buzzing. It was the charging brick. What's up with that? Never had that on my other phones. And the ear buzzing I didn't hear on my iphone 5 or on my co workers note 2. Sorry if I'm complaining on here too much but where else has a better community. ;-)
My LG charger sometimes makes an intermittent ticking sound and it's really annoying.
Actually its normal for chargers to do these, some do it more loud than others and it depends at what % is the battery.
