[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gigarant:
I am also considering the xperia z2. It seems to be the best new phone of the moment, even though I've heard the noise cancellation functionality is in the headphones that come in the box, and not in the phone itself as with other snapdragon 801 devices. Considering there's a chance i may not even get those in my region, and that i already bought a good headset to use with my phones, I consider that a bit of a jip. There is the Note 3 of course, although even with its new back, it still looks a bit...utilitarian. It *is* the most practical option, I suppose. :/

As to the Oneplus One, I'm hoping I don't see any N7000s in the Smash the Past videos, as I am still very attached to this phone ;) mine represents a solid year of modding and running custom ROMs, which couldn't have happened without the help & development of everyone here. (I doubt I'd feel that way if it was running stock though :p ) so I may have to wait until its just generally on sale to get one of those. Then again, i have some truly awful pre-android 'smartphones' (Samsung Bada OS or whatever it was called) I'd love to see die. I dont know if Oneplus woukd appreciate their sacrifice, however. First time in my life I wish i had an iphone..)

Another idea for my next stupidly expensive, savings-blasting purchase is a new smartwatch, as in the Moto 360, even though there is the drawback that even if the Note is still great, it doesn't have NFC.

Okay, new-device rant done ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] YBLEGAL1605:
This is a new device rant thread ain't it? lol

I love my Note 1. I'm still on GB. Even though it's dated, it gets 1% per hour batt loss on idle, great batt life, plays almost every flash video reliably, and still looks like a current phone, even at it's age. I'd flash something newer but I see no gains. If samsung would cough up the full source code, I'd like to go AOSP.

Which brings me to the discovery of the OnePlus One. Looks perfect. Soo glad they have a removable battery. No matter how big they make it, I'm sure I'll kill it, and having spares is the only way. One drawback of most newer phones, the non-removable battery. And they just announced pricing, super cheap for specs!

It's a very practical looking, size is nice. Love the concept of CM stock. With enough of a fanbase, it will rock, and I think it'll have an easy fanbase. Looking forward to PAC.

If only it had an SD slot. Always room for the OnePlus Two.

Smart watches are awesome, would love a stand alone one. I haven't read about one that I can remember though. Stand alone in the sense that it has it's own sim and #.

I think besides a new phone, Google Glass is in my future.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] p51d007:
The OnePlus One does not have a removable battery, per se...pop the back cover, it's not removable in the sense you can pop it out and swap another one in. There are some teardown photos that show it with one of those ribbon cable micro connectors. Not sure if it is glued in or not.

Also, this isn't a dig or anything, but the OPO "company" is 100% owned by Oppo, who produce the device on the same assembly line as

the Find7. To me, this looks like what we are seeing is a "less expensive" version of the Find7. Both look somewhat identical. The Find7

has the fast charge, expandable memory, notification LED etc. Guess you can kind of call the Find7 the "LG G2" and the OnePlus the Nexus5.

Nothing wrong with that, but you have to hand it to Oppo/OnePlus...for pretty much ZERO investment in advertising, they've done a bang

up job stirring the pot to create a feeding frenzy. ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] turbinea:
I'm considering Galaxy S5 as it has only marginally smaller screen, and while i love my note very much, i didn't use for making notes that much.

What i need from next phone is memory card slot, removable battery, while waterproofing is strong plus.

Xperia Z2 doesn't have removable battery but it has pogo pins for charging without need to remove that annoying flap on usb port, which is also very strong plus. I had Galaxy S4 active for a while and i almost threw the device across the room as i tried to peel off that tiny piece of plastic.

Even I've spent some time thinking about this, I still can't decide which one i should choose.

Are there any other options? Screen not larger than 5.3'', expendable storage, removable battery, waterproof.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] YBLEGAL1605:
Yeah, I just noticed that the battery isn't actually removable this morning doing more reading. Stinks some but perhaps the hardware modders will make it removabl. If not, its not a deal breaker.

Id go note 3, but I hate how Samsung doesn't support its fanbase with source.

I agree, very similar to find7, but price is way better. Either way, ashamed I didn't notice oppo or OnePlus before. I'm always reading smartphone news too.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nigi73:
Yea, nothing can beat the black crush :silly:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Reynaldinho111:
Just recently switched to an S5 from an S4 and had an N7000 before that (some of you might remember me). Honestly this phone is pretty awesome. Once we get aosp/cm up and running it'll be hard to beat. Just wanted to give my 2 cents for those considering it :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sbasil:
My transition from N7000 to S3 hasn't gone so smoothly (S3 cause I got it for free). I really liked the big screen of the N7000 and I'm still plagued by withdrawals from it. :p If I had to make a choice (and I will, soon) between the current phones, it wouldn't be iPhone (EVER :p) but either Lumia 930 or my new "almost favourite" OnePlus One. It'll be one tough cookie for others to crack. Saw a video review on youtube today and me likeyyyy. Here's the link for the review.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Kael ruch:
Probably Note 2 if it really feels faster that NOte 1.

I cant see myself going back to smaller display although ios is very tempting.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nikhilbhalwankar:
I am using Note GT-N7000 for almost 2 years now and really happy with it. For buying a new phone after Note, I think I will wait for one more year and go for modular phones based on Project Ara by Google. That looks fantastic !!!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] salespalace:
will be getting the OnePlus One next. galaxy note was the device that changed the market, its been a good three years and a bit. thanks to Samsung for making the device but thanks to the developers for making numerous outstanding roms!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rogconnect:
I was thinking about that 1+1 64GB too, but can't wait and ! got a LG G2 black Gold instead. It was almost a good three years on NOTE1. After having that LG G2 for 1 day, I said WTF I'd should have get it earlier. Can't stand that slow Ass NOTE1. LOL
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Kael ruch:
I'm also happy with Note 1.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ThaiDai:
But we aren't...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aarongillion63:
LG G2. Similar screen size (lil smaller--which is good) and better design.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rogconnect:
Yeah, and I just flashed a Ported 4.4 LG G Pro 2 ROM and have 4K Video recording. Nice. The Knock code is amazing!

OnePlus One
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sbasil:
I went from Note 1 to S3, not much of an upgrade (faster but smaller screen, everything else is the same = boring & plastic). But now I found my new love with Lumia 925. Slower hardware (yet works smoother than any Android I've ever used...it excels at everything else but games which I don't play anyway), fewer apps (but it has pretty much everything that I need), great camera (well it's not the best and it's not a new phone anymore, but it costs less than 300e now)....All in all, I'm really happy and this is my best phone so far. If WP is not a turn off (like it is for so many people), I really recommend it. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jfreakk:
The phones are preety good but the apps and support in That android is much better !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] 88X88:
Okay I finally bought Xperia Z2. As I mentioned I would.

It is a great device. The software could have less hickups but I'm not on the latest version for rooting reasons.

the screen is smaller a bit so that is a problem for me. I love the screen size of note. And the camera could be better for a highend phone.

Other than these little problems I have no objection. It is extremely fast and powerful, it's gorgeous and on top of every thing, it is IP58! And the battery is way better than Notes battery.

Goodbye note. You were a good friend.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] AlienwareAR:
Another Samsung Galaxy Note..!!! Maybe Note 3 or 4, outgoing on September..!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] VdaG:
Next phone will probably be a note 4 although I am really tempted to get a note 3

I am still rockin the note 1 so even the note 2 will be a huge improvement.

But dont get me wrong though as the note 1 is still very good but technology has improved so much since then and it seems to be advancing rapidly... kind of hard to keep up haha

Anybody think I should wait for note 4 or just get the note 3 now as it is indeed a beast of a phone?

Thanks in advance if anyone responds :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] lukesan:
I have a Nexus 5 besides my 2 Notes (N7000 and i9220). I absolutely hate the Nexus 5, fast as hell but the rest is just ...

Trying to get a refund for the Nexus and getting a Note 3.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] XxPixX:
What's wrong with it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] lukesan:
Microphone issues which makes this phone unusable for me (and others). Google promised a fix in January, that's why I didn't request my money back then. Now they just say too late.

Not only that but yellow'ish screen, djeeez compare it to my Notes and wow bad.

Things I knew before but that are slowly getting to me . no expandable memory and a battery that sometimes lasts 15 hours when you haven't even touched your phone. Happened to me this Saturday. Got to my mother at 7:30am (100% batt) and moved her to another appartment ... when finished at 7pm I had 4% batt left and I didn't even touch the phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nigi73:
99% htc1 m8. With SD card and the most powerful headphone amp in business it will do great as audio player even with demanding headphones. 4mpx is enough for social media - for serious shooting I will use my canon 6D.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] azzledazzle:
Note 3 :)

I just upgraded my other line to the S3 but....... its too small for me to get used to so my GF now owns it...

Ill wait for the Note 3 because upon some serious consideration, the specs just arent worthy of a upgrade, No doubt its an awesome phone but............... My Note 1 is an awesome device and im more than happy to keep it for another 12 months.

Plus... My GF said if I give her the S3 then 'Magic' would happen ;) and it did !!

I know..... a hooker would be cheaper but.... I love her lol !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Final5k:
It seems that it would be wise NOT to purchase the Note2 now if you are on a 1 or 2 yr contract since the battle for large screen phones is definitely on between manufacturers.

Sony will be releasing its 6inch screen phone with a 13mp cam :

My next phone will be as pointless as this thread, an iPhone... why are there so many Facebook type questions, stories and twaddle in this forum, is it because daddies given his old trusty note to his kid and got himself a note 2 or perhaps people feel they need to share everything all the time these days, bit like the crap I'm writing now.:banghead::eek::D

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] zain123d:
Samsung

Most probably any latest phone by Samsung in the galaxy note or galaxy S series , but with a condition . It should have an amazing battery life. Or I then maybe I would look into Nokia's lumia series.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] E_Goldstein:
Gone from the one x to a s3 to the note in the space of 3 months, really cant see myself using anything smaller now tbh.. I would love a 5inch or more htc but i dony like sense..im not to fussed about the note2 this Huawei 6.1inch device thats being rumoured seems interesting though
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Beretta93:
I'm done with freakin Sammy, my next phone will be something like Oppo Find 5 or HTC Butterfly, or whatever they may release outside Asia with those specs.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nigi73:
With the end of the world coming in the December, I can safely say that note is my last phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rlaw:
I'll stick with my Note until I see a Nexus or similarly open device that I want.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] StefanoDurden:
Not sure whether I'll take a note 2 or stay with my note 1 until note 3 is available.

I'd take a note 3 or a Nexus phone if they ever make one with "s-pen" and atscree least 5.3" inch screen.

Just got my first new phone since the galaxy note 1. This has really been the best phone I've ever owned. I am going to hang onto it forever!

New phone is a HTC One M8.. Really is fantastic so far. Just can't compare the two, although I miss higher DPI currently these things can change.. This phone really is a thing of beauty to hold.

The one that you choose for yourself.

This is the N7000 forum and not a compare-for-me-because-I-am-lazy-to-do-it-myself-forum.

Please check the technical details of these devices and compare the important ones. After that it is easy to decide.

By the way: best "anything" threads and posts are simply against XDA rules.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] M3TALLICA:
A lot of arrogance.

What's wrong with XDA these days?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ThaiDai:
People ignore the XDA rules completely. Searching yourself is an essential part of the normal behaviour of a xda member.

A lot of members made excellent tutorials, instructions, help threads etc and spent a lot of time doing it for the xda community. Not using them isn't really fair.

What's wrong? The members who are simply too lazy.

And if telling them to use the search or use the tutorials seems arrogant: in this case I really do not care.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Azeazezar:
So apple finally caught up with this phone.

Dual core 1.4 ghz, 1gb ram and 0.2 inch more screen.

Quad core gpu.

8 MP camera.

Unfortunately just a 1.2 MP camera compared to our 2MP selfiecam.

And it just lacks a pen, replaceable battery and a microsd card slot.

Not to mention the whole bendgate thing. My phone has been keeping my pockets warm for nearly 3 years, straight as a ruler.

I am sticking with this phone for a little while longer.

Nexus 6

Although I would prefer a 5 inch device (or at most 5.5 inches), the benefits of the nexus 6 outweigh its drawbacks. I'll first wait until the first reviews come out (and so that its bugs come into light so I don't get a faulty device) until I get one.

Is anyone else getting it? Also, I'm currently living in London (been living here for 1.5 months now - studying). Would the best of way of getting it be through the play store or getting it from some other store?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Leechoonhwee:
Nexus 6 is definitely a great choice. For me the only consideration is the lack of sd card expansion.

The Nexus family is launching in 29 countries and very likely UK is one of it. Your best bet should be Google store if it is available.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] igorescu04:
Hello XDA friend,

Just changed from Note 1 to SG S5 ... for now seems a very good choice.. . I bought it from Vodafone 40€ total cost... seemd a good choice. ..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ilakya:
I'm considering if I still need to paint on my phone or not. I would like to do quick sketching and coloring outdoor so that's why I take the Note at it's release. But lately I found that traditional pencil and paper never need any battery and then I can use my Note just for coloring (simply take the photo of the pencil sketch). Then... If it's just coloring, maybe my finger or any normal stylus without pen-pressure can do the job.

As for now I'm not sure about these decision. So if I will not let the stylus go, I'll end-up with Note 4 (With better stylus). Or switch to Nexus 6. Witch I'm actually in love with Moto since before smart-phone era, And my first smart-phone is also a Symbian-based Moto and I really love it (Until I brick it when android are coming to 2.2). And Samsung never give me any good impression after using it for years... I'll not use Samsung if it's not for the pen.

And another problem is in Thailand, Nexus are rare. While Samsungs are every where.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] icemanroh:
Adios!

Finally its time to say good bye to note :( (bought one plus one :D ). Its been happy 2 years & thanks to all developers who work so hard for all us.

My choices are a galaxy note 4(only for the s-pen/pressure sensitivity), or Nexus 6 for everything else.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Leechoonhwee:
My choice was Nexus 6 until I heard the Sony Z4 Ultra might be announced on 15th Jan so yeah that's my next phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] XxPixX:
Well, I got my nexus 6 a few days back and I can say that it is AMAZING.

The size of the device is perfect, it feels really thin but sturdy in the hand. The battery lasts forever (6h at max brightness and I'm sure I could stretch that to at least 10h at min. + a few other tweaks) which is such a relief coming from a note where the battery would last at most 1h 30min at min brightness on L. The performance is also smashing (but not lagless, it sometimes stutters in google play and on some websites on chrome[eg. devevelopers.android.com]) - chrome launches in 1s, Note on L launched it in about 5s, same story with other apps, the 3GB RAM is a huge advantage (I just leave everything in memory and can come to them instantly at any time). WiFi is a lot better (which I didn't expect). Before I didn't even have a signal in my room, now with the nexus 6 the signal is 2/4 anywhere in my room and it's a lot faster than that on the note. Ambient display is very, very useful and well thought out. It turns on when it's supposed to, there are no annoying waits or shakes one has to do to activate it and it helps you turn the screen on without touching the power button. The storage is very fast, where it used to take ages to copy a few short 20-min videos onto the phone, it can now copy them in seconds AND it doesn't randomly crash the connection like the Note did (even with the patched kernel).

The only slight disappointment is the screen. Although the pixel-density is great, the screen is extremely red (especially at low-brightness) whilst you can't tell in daylight at full brightness when on it's own, if you compare it to the Note then you can see just how red it is. If anyone is interested in buying it then definitely check the screen in the shop as you may be disappointed with the red feel to it.

I gave my old Note to my mother (non-techie user) but my dad set it up. He said that there was "slow" and "Samsung Slow". Things just took forever to load on that thing after looking at a nexus. He also taught me a few new words whilst describing the software on it (TouchWiz). I'm pretty sure he will put Lollipop on it once video recording works and the pin issue is solved.
