[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
yes but then thats poor implementation by google right not many know about custom roms let alone about how to flash them they will take what google gives them, I agree one of the reason for low score could be the high screen resolution but then what is the screen resolution of infinity my point is again I am stressing on this I do not think the processor is the killer we make it out to be
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] hoss_n2:
I think they have chosen the new dual core processor not because it is more powerful(in CPU wise) but because it supports the 2500x1600 resolution needed by the screen, for sure mail t604 Gpu is more powerful than the normal mail 400 MP but you have to take in consideration that the mail 400 MP in note 10.1 / note II and s III isn't a normal one, it performs more than twice the performance of the normal mail 400 MP gpu in lets say for example (galaxy S2 /note 1) some says that it is a highly overclocked version and others say because it is built on the new 32 n.m technology which is the same as exynos 5 dual technology (exynos 4 dual was 45 n.m vs exynos 4 quad which is 32 n.m)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
I agree with you on that I think A15 is the only processor that supports the high resolution of Nexus 10 and i think its similar to apples a5 processor and I also believe the exenous 4 series will out perform it because leaving technicalities apart it will not make business sense for Samsung to do that
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] MercuryStar:
Until they bring out a 3G version of the Nexus 10, I still consider my Note 10.1 to be superior.

For me (and everyone is different!), portability is one of the biggest deciding factors and I absolutely need the 3G capability (and not via a dongle/tethering). That and a long (8 hours or more) battery life were my two biggest requirements.

Screen resolution is lower on the list - 1280x800 is more than enough for me. It's still more than double the pixel count of the Amazon Kindle at 600x800.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] rewrew:
So, what do I do now??

I have had my note 10.1 for two weeks, and in general I like it, but the new nexus 10 has the only thing that our tablet lacks: the screen.

However, it doesn't have an sd card, or the s-pen.

I still can get a refund for my note, and save up a bit of money with the nexus.

How would an standard capacitive stylus work with the nexus?

Thanks!!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] demandarin:
Its your call. Capacitive would work fine on it. But you won't get the finesse and precise use like with S pen. If you looking for a more "future proof" device, nexus 10 is the device you want. Nexus devices are usually made to showcase the latest in hardware and software. If you can still get your money back, do it. Then buy nexus 10. If you don't like it, you can always return and buy the note again. IM sure the new CPU, gpu, and screen will be very impressive.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] dale_cooper:
It also appears to have more premium feeling hardware, and a UI that is fluid, well designed, not intrusive and is consntatly updated. You just need to decide how important the s-pen, multi screen and associated functionality is to you. I'm in the same shoes.... There are more expensive stylus like a jot pro ($40-$50) that should work pretty well, not gonna be an s-pen though, thats for sure.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] ultramag69:
Buy it, don't buy it... You buggers over there at least have the opportunity to test out for a while and take back if you don't like. Over here in Oz all sales are final. No shop I know of will let you return anything just because a bigger, better alternative is available....

Hell, it can be pretty hairy to just return under warranty, and then they just give you a refurb of the same thing if they can't fix your item...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
It depends on what you want to use a stylus for. If it's to jot down the occasional phone number or a grocery list you'll be fine. Where Samsung's "Notes" differ is that they have inductive displays with 1024 degrees of pressure sensitivity, a Wacom-based digitizer for accuracy, and palm rejection so you can write naturally. Read the ThinkPad comparison thread. Lenovo tried to come up with a capacitive-display based solution before the Note was released and, according to users, it wasn't all that successful.

Sounds like you need to pack a lunch and spend a couple of hours camped out in a shop evaluating their display model. ;)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Blueback22:
I think I read on a Samsung technical site that the dual core exynos 5 outperforms the quad core exynos 4.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] hoss_n2:
Samsung said that Exynos 5 is 40%faster than dual core 4211 (in s2 and note ) if clocked at same clock speed ( 4211 was 45 n.m technology ) , there is 4212 and 4412 which are the the new dual and quad core based on 32 n.m technology which we have in our note , any way note 10.1 outperforms nexus 10 by a margin in both antutu and sunspider benchmarks , so lets wait a couple of weeks to see the final benchmarks of the nexus 10
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] MercuryStar:
I've literally done that before. :)

However, things aren't necessarily as bad as ultramag69 says. Many (but not all) stores will allow you to return things within 7 days for no reason, if the original packaging is intact and undamaged and there's no signs of wear, etc. Plus all Australians have the right to return something for a refund if it's found faulty due to a manufacturer fault within 30 days, regardless of manufacturer warranty, even if the item is no longer in an "as new" condition by this time (eg it's dirty/lost packaging/scratched/installed different OS) as long as the customer can demonstrate that it was a manufacturer fault and not caused by whatever he/she did to it. I'm fairly sure that's not a right that all countries have.

But it's certainly true that we do not have the "buy it to try it out, return it if you don't like it" culture that the US seems to have. Not all stores will let you return something simply for change of mind, and those that do may still make the process less than easy and may only give you something like 7 days.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] rewrew:
Here in Spain in most places you can get a full refund if you return the item in 30 days, although they are not legally obliged to give you back your money, they are allowed to give you a check that you can only spend in their store...

Oh man... I hate Google for doing this to me. I went through tons of tablets tf-101, tf-201,then back & forth between tf700 & the note 10.1

I just settled on the note & the nexus 10 comes along with this screen oh gd here we go again. Dont get me wrong, out of all the junk I've tried the note 10.1 was & still is the best out there by a far margin. But its just so hard to resist such great screen on the nexus 10.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
Based on specs and early info I assumed the N10 would blow the Note away. As more details have come out I'm not so sure.

The Display

It's got tons of pixels but Anand's preliminary testing of it shows it not to be very bright nor to have contrast as good as existing tablets. Something to check-out in person and to consider based on how it's going to be used.

The CPU/GPU

The N10 does pretty poorly compared to the Note on CPU benchmarks. One of Anand's theories is that a portion of memory bandwidth is hard partitioned to serve the needs of the high resolution display. He also thinks the 5250 in the N10 is throttled to conserve battery life because it performs better in the new Samsung Chrome Book. The GPU is significanlty better than the Note's. So if someone's a big gamer the better GPU wins out over the CPU. Video playback doesn't really strain the GPU in any of the newer high-end devices (except maybe the TF700 because its FHD display is at Teg3's max threshold). For everyday tasks the Note may be a faster and more fluid device once loaded up with all the crap we install on our tablets because its CPU seems to perform better than the N10's. I think the performance of the N10 will be improved greatly once the devs tweak 4.2 for the h/w. But I think for the devs to get the performance gains their looking for battery life is going to suck miserably. And benchmarks are comparing an ICS Note to a JB N10. I'd expect the performance differences to be even more pronounced once the Note's on JB.

SunSpider (Lower is Better)

1194 - Note 10.1

1384 - N10

2101 - TF700 (ICS)

BrowserMark (Higher is Better)

162657 - Note 10.1

139551 - N10

118375 - TF700 (ICS)​

Overall Experience

The Note's more complete with a lot of Samsung value-add features integrated in to the OS. That's either a good thing or a bad thing depending on your point of view. Multiview, S-Pen, and the wicked fast browser are things I wouldn't personally want to give up or have to resort to hacks to get back.

Happy deciding. ;)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] needachange:
But doesn't it's dual core processor make it less attractive? As far as GPU is concerned, I found gpu of note 10.1 superior to N7 at least (wrt games)......so it doesn't leave me with any high hopes for N10 gpu.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
It's an A15-based chip and even with two less cores it should outperform a A9 chip. Something funky's going on beyond just two or four cores that's causing it to perform as weak as it is. As for the GPU, it's a beast. In the below graphs the reason there are so many devices ahead of the iPad3 and N10 is because their pushing so many fewer pixels. If the S4 Pro in the N4 had to push the same number of pixels as the Mali in the N10 is it would rank signifcantly behind it. Your N7 should probably rank around where the TF300 is on the left hand graph. But look what the pixel count in the TF700 does to the GPU in Teg3. If you wonder why Samsung didn't put a FHD display on the Note that specific result kind of answers the question.

Here's what the Note gets in the same test...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] demandarin:
I'm about to go crazy seeing everyone stress these benchmarks so much. Why don't people let first hand experience, by buying the device, determine how it performs. Ipad CPU benches very poorly yet sells very well. Nexus7 ben yes weren't all that but it still sold very well. Infinity pad benched lower than Prime, even with its higher clocked tegra3. Yet plenty if people still bought it.

Alot of devices seemed to bench poorly in reviews. Yet once release came, people had great things to say once it was in hand.

IM not worried about these benchmarks. My only decision now is whether I want a N10 or a MS Surface RT(which mobile tech re View and Anandtech highly recommends). I take in all reviews and benches. Then I get the product myself to determine if Iike it or not. I don't look for others go tell me which one I should get. The best indicator is using the device yourself.

I ha e no doubt the N10 is more powerful overall than my Note 10.1. Bit it won't make me like my note any less. Believe in the fact that developer support for N10 will be leagues ahead of the note 10.1. Nexus is to showcase new hardware and software . Also for developers to ha e fun with.

Let your own experience with device determine how you feel about it. Stop worrying(people in general) over benches and early reviews with prerelease software. Lol sheesh ;P
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
It happens with every major device. ;) With nothing to go on we hang on reviews and published data. To a degree though you kind of have to look at benchmarks. Someone who uses a N10 as a reader would say it's blazing fast. Someone playing HD games might have a different opinion. But you're right about how a device feels. My Teg3 One X's benchmarks are way below the SGS3's and it doesn't really feel that way (except in high frame rate games where the benchmarks really do tell a story. ;) )
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
Well as of today we only have benchmark or reviews from tech sites for n10 between the two I chose the fist one also something that bothers me though it may not happen with n10 is thwarted price outside USA n4 is supposed to be priced in Europe almost double of what it is in USA if That happens with n10 it becomes a totally dffront proposition
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] donec:
Google didn't do it to you or me. We did it to ourselves by wanting and not being satisfied. On the other hand I don't see anything about the Nexus 10 that is worth giving up my GNote10 for. But I am considering adding a Nexus 4 and a Wi-Drive.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] davidetkin511:
Hey Guys,

Verizon is sending me a d inc to replace my messed up rezound

In your opinion, is this phone already outdated? or is it good enough to stick with for a while?

Thanks!

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
You'll see
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
The Droid Incredible 4G LTE is a great phone. It's the perfect form factor at only 4 inches with a nice-sized and nice-looking display. 1GB of RAM is the current standard, which it has, and it supports microSD cards, which is no longer the standard but should still be. It runs Ice Cream Sandwich stock, and we're about to have S-OFF so we can install anything we want on it. I never lose connection to the network, and Wi-Fi works great at a decent range. There's nothing currently available that I would take over this phone.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] junkmail9:
I would not say it is outdated. However, how much you like it will depend on what you want in a phone. I bought the Dinc4g on release day and with the exception for no root (yet), I am happy with it.

The rest of my family have the Rezound. This phone is smoother, faster and smaller. All plusses for me. I want the 4" screen. They like the Rezound's bigger screen, but their battery life is awful.

With root right around the corner, this phone promises to be even better.

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] dajogejr:
I went from a T-Bolt on VZW, to Sensation on TMOus and back to a DINC4 on VZW.

I was scared about speed and battery coming from those two phones.

Within a few days that was laid to rest.

Even with the factory bloat, it is faster and the battery lasts longer.

I too, coming from two prior 4.3 inch screen phones, like this form factor better than it's larger counterparts.

Very, very happy we made the switch.

Excited about S-Off, but this phone is a great device for me. I only want S-OFF to remove bloatware to be honest...and to get rid of the WiFi Nag.

Otherwise, out of the box this phone's a winner.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] todaysteve:
Agree with you. A whole lot of the smartphone community does not know what they are missing when it comes to the 4g3. It's a secret success. Root and s-off will be a nice bonus if it comes to pass.

Lol! I agree with all the comments. Great phone. Battery life is ok. Aside from bloatware and wifi symbol in your face, the only other slightly down side is lacking range of cases but Otterbox and me became friends on this model so I can't complain. I do like to accessorize from time to time but what I have now will have to do. :p

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] andybones:
I too came from the Rezound as I sold mine, then bought this phone on my two year contract.

I love the size of this phone, it's perfect, IMO.

The INC2 is the same size 4', but this phone is more of a candy bar shape, much like the INC1, which I prefer.

As much as I feel it may be weird not being able to pull the battery when needed, I wish that this phone was made like the One Series phones, specifically the OneS, I love the build quality on the One S.

The Inc4 I use with no case and no screen protector and I don't feel nervous with it so it is built pretty nice, but IMO the INC2 is a bit more solid, especially the away the back door was on the INC2, on the INC4 it's pretty easy and squeaks a bit due to this. Nothing that was going to keep me from buying this phone though :)

I'll be on this phone for two years. I'll most likely end up using my brothers upgrade for the Incredible DIX and let him take my next upgrade. but I'll be on the Inc4 mainly even so as I couldn't use a 5' phone for a daily, it'll pretty much be my tablet, lmao.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] dajogejr:
Found it...but all of the VZW bloat doesn't allow disabling (Ringtones, Navagator, etc.).

I'll try uninstalling some updates and see if allows me to. THANKS!!!!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] PhillyCheez:
Yes. You need to uninstall updates first.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] dajogejr:
Ok....but I uninstall the update, it totally removes the app from the list.

Then, if I reboot the phone, it comes back up and updates itself.

Oh well, no biggie.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] junkmail9:
Uninstalling the update should then give you the option to disable the app, and you shouldn't need to reboot in between. Once disabled, the app moves to the bottom of the list and shows "disabled" as its status.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] dajogejr:
Ok...so here's how mine went.

When I uninstall the app update, it disappears from the list.

However, when I go to the last choice, "All Apps"...it's there. And once the updates are uninstalled, you can disable it.

So...thanks all!!

What modem/baseband/radio are you currently using?

What rom are you currently using?

How are your data speeds while on mobile data with said modem/baseband/radio?

Have you flashed any scripts/tweaks or use any apps to assist with your mobile data speeds?

With regards to location, where do you use mobile data the most? (post one of the 5 boroughs)

Thank you in advance to all who respond! :victory:

LJ7 Leaked ROM

Can easily pull down well over 2 Mb/s in downtown Manhattan (Battery Park) late at night, and around 1.7 Mb/s average. Can also pull down around 2 Mb/s in Nassau county, LI on average. Where I live in Queens, 400 Kb/s average.

No tweaks or scripts of any kind. Personally don't believe they work.

I travel from Queens to Manhattan at least once a week, and have noticed that speeds in NYC seem to depend on network load. I generally get much better speeds late at night.
