[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tegr96:
well i found the answer, this 250 mb of ram that is hidden is reserved for the gpu as i read on some article.

and there could be a way to amend that a little bit through some kernel.

im now disappointed and thinking about replacing this phone as multitasking is very poor and its a basic feature of a smart phone.

its strange to see a chinese phone that is 110 usd faster with better multitasking and even the screen quality and gaming is better! why cant a top company like sony do something to give access to the 1 gb ram which is very needed for basic use

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snapdragon_(system_on_chip)

don't think more Ram will get you faster, new chips it is ..( bigger Cpu Cache, bigger GPU, Dual channel memory )

sony need those 200mb for gpu, because it's a multimedia hd phone and gaming phone ( 320 gpu like xz :fingers-crossed: )...so you get hd movie recorder , hd games, even you can trow this to hd tv ...;)

i have this $200 chinnese quadcore with msm8225 , 203 gpu,1Gb ram ... and i believe xsp faster than this chinnese quadcore

and this phone don't have NFC, can't play full hd movie, lags on hd games, can't record full hd movie, no os update, and the list will go on ...:o

antutu about 13k on this chip, on quadcore mediatek chip about 16k, xsp about 21k ... you tell me who is the fastest ...;)

so, don't bother what is show on bench, user experience is...:laugh:

Please no more chinese phone jokes,

unless you found one with a Snapdragon 600/800 etc, the GPU performance is in those 110 USD chinese "Super phones" is very poor.

Not even comparable to the Adreno 225 let alone 320.

Haha,my friend has a sgs4 and that has 2gb ram and 1.81 user accesible.At times his phone has 700-900 mb free...so dont complain :D
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theorw:
Phone is very good.And i honestly believe that another 100-150 MB of ram wouldnt make any difference...They would in my previous xperia X8 which had 27MB free ram all the time...But when you have 350+ free as i do now, being 500 wont change a thing.

With 250 EUR i got a phone with almost the performance of xpZ (yeah cause of 720 screen but its ok for me ) that wont slow down on everything you throw at it.So dont complain about the little missing RAM which as said is not wasted but is being used but for the GPU.:good:

I'm having the same problems with my Plantronics M100. The signal has more static than usual. Put it back on my Nexus 4, works fine. Maybe someone tested with a low-grade Bluetooth piece, since it's less evident on my crappy old Motorola H620 (though it always sounded crappy anyway).

Might be a Bluetooth stack problem. Might be a hardware thing. Hard to say at this point.

I noticed issue with Nexus 5 stock MusicFX, whether bluetooth to device or general usage. It seems to have come from that I believe. I am on Cataclysm and run Viper FX audio files, no crackling at all any more (using high or super audio drivers). I think the issue resides in the default android sound production and that is being sent via the bluetooth. Running 4.4.2.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] rEVOLVE:
I have and use my Note 8 for work when I don't want to carry my Win 8 tablet, but this news of the Tegra Note for ~$200 is intriguing - especially with the performance the Tegra 4 will bring at that price. And stylus support? Wow! I'll have to wait and see what reviews will look like.

http://www.anandtech.com/show/7508/nvidia-tegra-note-7-review/7

http://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2013/11/12/tegra-note-pre-order/

http://reviews.cnet.com/tablets/evga-tegra-note-7/4505-3126_7-35831314.html

Honestly I prefer the side-by-side multiwindow that a rooted Touchwiz gives you, though, as that's pretty useful to me when I do use it for work (paired w/ the 2GB of RAM on the Note 8, to the 1GB on this device gives it some edge in the multitasking front as well).

Who knows, though? Due to Nvidia releasing this as a reference model, maybe some manufacturer will license it and sell w/ 2GB and someone figures out how to add the multi-window to it.

On a performance comparison, the Tegra 4 DESTROYS all the other android tablets in this price range, though. Also the footprint is smaller so it would actually fit better in some of my jacket pockets where the Note 8 wouldn't. Also - front mounted speakers!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] sputnik767:
Tegra note uses a passive stylus, Note 8 uses an active one. All of the features that make the Note 8 unique are not available to the Tegra note. It is no more competition to the Note than a Corolla is to a porsche, despite both being cars.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] staplebox:
tegra note

I pre-ordered an evga tegra note for my wife. Not sure when newegg is shipping- they show it out of stock already.

I don't think it is competition for the note 8, I know it is. My wife wanted a note taking tablet and I got the tegra instead of the note 8, which I use. Good pen input is the only reason to get a note 8, imo. If the tegra has decent pen input it will certainly give the note 8 a run for it's money.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] purple_zergling:
By passive stylus do you mean capacitive? I know the Note series and Windows Surface use similar technology found in Wacom tablets, utilizing a digitizer. There doesn't seem to be much competition on the Android side for the Note tablets.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] agambhandari:
The only reason I bought the Note 8 was for the stylus and thr ability to project it to a big screen(MHL).

I didn't need the quad core processor and 2 gb ram. The work is not that demanding. The microHDMI on the tegra is much better than the MHL.

The Tegra Note seems like an ideal tablet, even 1 GB ram is ok, but I am concerned that the 7.0 inch size could feel a bit cramped.

I expect the Xolo Tegra note to launch in India for about 15K
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] afblangley:
I think it's great to have another tablet with a stylus, especially at that price point. The specs aren't as high as the Note 8, but I don't think folks will feel that as much as they feel the difference in price. The most important point of distinction is 7 vs 8. The 30% difference in viewing area really matters. Steve Jobs had it right when he said a 7 inch screen compromised a tablet's functionality.

Here's a mathematical comparison:

http://www.displaywars.com/7-inch-16x10-vs-8-inch-16x10
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] sputnik767:
Basically, yes. Just a better one than those $10 ones on Amazon. Just a slightly better version of your finger.

---------- Post added at 02:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:06 AM ----------

The OP implied that the new Tegra tablet is competition for the Note. That's not the case based on the different styli alone. Anyone who want to write or create with a stylus needs a Wacom one. The iPad can utilize a stylus as well, but it's not the same.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] iSaoHatake:
But have you guys seen the last video from Nvidia? Shows a lag free writting and painting with Tegra Note and his stylus, with Galaxy Note we have a lot of lantency. I make beautiful landscapes with my galaxy note, in the start is very good, but it increase the lag as i paint the landscape.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] TC93:
The Note 8.0 is far superior despite anything Anandtech claims. I have no lag with my stylus, and neither have other online reviews.

Plus every 7 inch tablet is crap compared to an 8 inch.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] TC93:
After watching the Nvidia made video demo of it on youtube, the guy tries to act like the tablet apps are Nvidia apps, but they are not. He even demos that "Write" app, which to me looks like his stylus lags when he writes. There is no way its better than the pen on the Samsung Note tablets.

There is also no way a nub tip like that will feel like a pen when writing. But this is just my opinion.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] GTX420:
the lag may be due to settings. you can set the pen/stylus lag, (lag is a lot less than compared to Samsung). not sure about note taking, but the TegraN7 is decent in this area. the drawing app seems much better.

i do feel that the stylus for general touch screen use on the TegraN7 is much more responsive than any Samsung i've tried.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] shrdlud:
Does anyone here have hands on experience with both devices? If Tegra note can provide decent stylus based writing and drawing support (even with capacitative styluses) it's going to be a big deal for student population looking for note-taking and sketching aid...
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Heafust:
I don't think the Tegra Note will be any competition.... However... I would like to side load some of those apps onto my Samsung. Any idea where we might find a system dump or pulled apks?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Ouzo:
I was looking for something else when I stumbled across this thread so I thought I'd weigh in. I've had an Advent Tegra Note for a day or so now.... Firstly, it's very fast. It makes my Note 2 feel a bit anaemic. However, the screen is poor. I don't mind the resolution but the back light is uneven and colours are very bland. Whites look kind of creamy yellow like an AMOLED panel, but it lacks the punchy colours to make up for that so it just looks bland. My partner's Tab 3 8.0 has a far superior screen in comparison, even though the DPI is lower. This is also my first vanilla android device and I have to say I think it sucks. I think I'd rather have Samsung or HTC's bloatware on balance.The stylus is very responsive, more so than on my Note 2, but of course you just don't have the apps and system wide integration on board out of the box to fully take advantage of it.

Did I mention how fast it is? That really does make up for it so far. It's like a battered old car painted in grey primer that has a v12 engine hidden under the hood. And it's cheap!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Shanon1:
I would go with galaxy note 8.0

I would go with galaxy note 8.0 because there are a lot more features it comes with. Also the screen colors do look better and I think it is plenty sharp enough for it size as in resolution so thing will still look good. The tablet is still really fast and should be smooth in hardcore gaming. Also if you really wanted stock android for the launcher (home screen and app drawer) you can just download a custom launcher like apex launcher or nova launcher to customize so it looks just like stock android. which is what I do. And coming from stock android , it gets a little boring after a while so that is why I also use launchers to make different themes.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] rEVOLVE:
I've had my Note 8 for awhile now, and like i said in my first post, i think it's great. It is getting to be an older model now and if i was looking to buy one, that factor would lower it on my list considering how fast Samsung abandons its models for upgrades. With ART coming soon to replace Dalvik and the potential performance gains that come with that, i'd want to invest in a device that has a good chance of getting it. One thing i don't trust Samsung for is keeping older devices current with Android versions.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Shanon1:
NVIDIA Tegra Note 7 is the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0

NVIDIA Tegra Note 7 is the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0. This tablet is significantly more expensive thanks to the included active stylus technology. A 16GB version of this tablet will run $359 or so.

---------- Post added at 06:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:48 AM ----------

I have both. The tegra 7 will be a xmas gift, but I've been doing heavy testing, including playing games on it that note 8 can't even play. Really hate to say it but the tegra note 7 is better in every way except the stylus stylus interface for writing. For art applications they nearly equal. Writing is not that great on the 8, though, so the 8 been a big waste of money for what was a business investment for me. I have had other issues with the 8. I also have s S4, and the Samsung gimmicks you mentioned are not usable in my experience. I am unhappy about the fact that the Tegra Note is superior, but I will still relinquish it Xmas morning to its intended recipient. Again, due to several issues with the Note 8, I cannot even use it for its intended use a business tool.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] rEVOLVE:
Please share your specific observations particularly with how you think the Tegra Note is better than the Note 8 in writing and almost equal in art or drawing as there are some here who automatically thought otherwise without even trying it out. Seems they are quick to condemn it as if they are threatened by this cheaper yet more powerful competition.

The thing I'm curious about is that difference in RAM. i know as I'm painting with the Note8, and there are more and more strokes on the picture as the piece progresses, it does start to lag and slow down. The Tegra Note is faster, yet has half of the RAM, so maybe it's still susceptible to this issue or worse?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Shanon1:
Which one is better?

-Featurewise.. As well as in my opinion.. the Galaxy Note is way better compared to the Tegra note

Why?

- 1280*800 HD display (vs 1024*768 non-HD display)

- 1.6Ghz Qaud core processor (vs 1Ghz Dual core processor)

- 2Gb RAM (vs 512MB RAM)

- microSD slot

What the tablet can do?

Well it can do most basic purpose you require a bulky laptop for. I.e Internet browsing, facebook, twitter, watching movies, youtube, playing games, blogs, reading books, taking notes, chat, voice call, video call etc.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] roustabout:
I think the specs you cite are not for the $200 evga tegra note 7, which has

-microsd

-1 gig ram

- micro sd

- 1200 x 800 ips

-1.8 ghz tegra4 quad

there aren't custom roms yet, but it's rootable and the bootloader can be unlocked. it shares a lot with the nvidia shield, enough that root tools and other work is greatly aided.

I'm using an hp slate 8 just now - same soc, 8 inch, 1600 x 1200 display, no stylus included.

I had it rooted a few hours out of the box and and bootloader unlocked within a day.

It is a benchmark beast, 16k quadrant, 3500 or so on geekbench 2

I'm very curious to get my hands on the nvidia stylus and apps. The aspect ratio is great for me. it is heavy - about a pound - and has a battery about 25% larger than than the note. Time will tell how much that really means.

No ir blaster and no smart wake and a very hard to find/press power button are annoying. I wish it had cap buttons on the bezel, plenty of room for them.

Color accuracy is better on the Samsung - I've been struck by that in comparison to every other tab, using photos I took myself.

Speakers are better on the note - louder and/or better ported.

The hdmi out is going to be very helpful on the hp.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] HankChill:
You know what they say; you get what you pay for.

The Tegra Note is smaller, lower resolution, less memory, slower processor speed than the Note 8. I don't think it would be entirely fair to compare the two as the Note 8 would blow the Tegra Note out of the water. I can see the Tegra Note for someone who is on a budget, since it's only $199, whereas the Note 8 is twice that.

I personally went for Note 8 because it's larger than a 7" tablet which is too small for me.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] roustabout:
The tegra note being discussed here for 200 is this one

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834099001

It's a faster CPU clock than the Note, and a much more modern GPU.

Apparently the build quality on the early EVGA units is marginal.

I must admit, I saw a deal last night on the Note 8 at either 330 or 280 and did half-think about getting it and sending back the HP slate.

Then I remembered how much faster it is. The styli for the HP version of the 7 are available from HP. I may get one of those for a look. Once EVGA has them to sell, they'll be 20 from them. I may do a screen recording with just using the stylus I have to record input in Mynotes or similar.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] HankChill:
Oh I didn't know it was the EVGA Tegra Note we were talking about... Yeah that thing is a powerhouse, Tegra 4 CPU and GPU would blow the Note 8 right out of the water. 7" is just too small for me :)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] roustabout:
Me too, which is why I'm using the HP Slate 8 pro - same CPU and SoC, 8 inch screen with a 1600 x 1200 aspect ratio.

$330, which is too much for what it is, and currently woefully undermarketed.

It's so much a Tegra platform device, though, that the Shield ADB and Fastboot drivers work and the EVGA note root tool roots it as well.

HP sells (and I just bought) the stylus for their 7 inch device as a standalone part for 18 bucks with free 2 day shipping. I'll be interested to see how it turns out.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] roustabout:
slate 7 extreme stylus not simply cap!

So I got the stylus today and it isn't a simple cap device. The fine end is hard and is not registering on the screen of the slate 8.

There is a wide end that does register, but apparently the t note screens do have a special sensor of some kind.

Very interesting. On the note 8, the fine end does register, if you draw quickly you see dropouts.

The eraser portion acts as a blunt capacitive tool and registers continuously. No pressure sensitivity on the wacom from either end of the HP stylus.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Takx:
That's a pretty interesting discussion, I don't have any one of those but I'm looking forwarding on getting one of them.

On benchmarks and games the tegra just crushes the note 8 really hard, but I'm looking for a all purpose tablet with writing support, I know one of the advantages of the note 8 is the multi window support, what I think is really nice.

Samsung just announced the new line of tabs for 2014, I hope they upgrade the note 8 with a better processor too.

How does the tegra note behaves on the memory side of things, does it get full fast (few applications open)?

No, You need to install CWM first then the device can be rooted. until now the safest way to install first CWM on the device is via Odin. then you can do everything include install new updated CWM via CWM itself. You only need is samsung drivers and Recommended version Odin to your device. At first I'm a little scare to install CWM via Odin but Now It's Fun. You Should Try with Caution of course.
