I just straight up went to youtube and launched a Starcraft 2 replay from Husky - played full screen in what (I could swear) 720p - I could see every tiny detail - very, very high res stuff.
Everything's so freaking snappy, just tap - BOOM - it plays.
So, first impressions:
FAST!
Light weight - even my wife said it's very light (and she thinks iPad is way too heavy)
Feels very solid - rubbery back is very pleasant and feels luxurious
Screen is very bright at max setting
Auto-rotate is very fast, I think even more reactive than on my SGS2, even when playing full-screen 720p youtube vid
Screen needs a protector on it - I don't think it's gorilla glass, and by itself it's somewhat hard to move finger on it (it kinda sticks a little). Protector will fix that
Speakers - good quality and loud enough for me
B&N's UI is actually very pleasant - it's very clean, appealing to the eyes.
Can't get to any Android stuff through settings - it's all locked down =)
WiFi works great, good reception
Browser is very fast, I bet you anything it'll be much snappier than Fire's Silk browser
Looks like you can't easily sideload APKs. You can browse to them, but NK doesn't recognize the file.
Very happy I got NT instead of that wimpy little Kindle Fire.. (still adore my eInk kindle though).
Awesome news!!! Keep the info coming
I picked up my 2 hours ago also, here is few first impression i have.
Pro:
- 720p Youtube and Amazon HD video play smoothly, but 1080p on youtube is about 5-10fps
- Screen have warmer color then the Nook Color I have, in comparison NC screen have a slight bluish tint to it.
- Nook Tablet software version 1.4
- Screen is 1 piece glass instead of 2 piece like NC, i agree with DarkDvr, the screen will need a screen protector. 1 piece glass front is slightly better looking then the 2 piece setup on the NC.
- Speaker is louder then the stock NC, but not as loud as NC with the Nook Tweak settings. However good enough for majority of flash videos I tried.
Con:
- I believe the NT is running Froyo 2.2, not a big deal though.
- Flash player version is 10.3, which by itself it not a problem. HOWEVER I notice severe flickering in most of the video i played on youtube and amazon videos. I want to see if anyone else notice this problem with their NT, it might be that i got a defective NT, but when i play the intro NT video, I don't see any flickering. It might be flash player related.
So far I am a little bit underwhelm with the NT, I was hoping for smooth 1080p playback (like my SGS2 with a similar dual core Cortext-A9 processor). Also with the flash video flicker issue, i really having doubts of if i want to keep the NT or not, especially since i already have my NC.

Yeah, cause you're playing 1080p in a browser, and that is a feat only SGS2 can pull off. Try playing an actual 1080p video file in a video player. NK specs (including the back of the NK packaging) shows that it can handle 1080p video. Just not in a browser.

I never watched amazon videos, but I tried several different videos on youtube in 720p, and there was no flickering at all. I didn't see any issues, it was full fps, fast and screen orientation changed very fast.

SGS2 has Exynos monster CPU in it, at least most of them do. NK won't be able to match this SOC's CPU/GPU prowess. But official claims are that it's able to play 1080p video. As I've said above, just not in a browser.

Call tech support, it seems it's your unit..
DarkDvr can you do me a favor? Can you watch this clip from 60 minute Walter Isaacson interview in full screen. and pay especially attention to when it was showing Isaacson speaking, to a static background. On my NT i can clearly see banding and flickering, most video i tried does this, but i think this video is the easiest to make out the flickering and banding issues.
http://www.macrumors.com/2011/10/23/the-full-walter-isaacsonsteve-jobs-interview-from-60-minutes/
Also if you don't mind Korean girl bands here is another video that show very noticeable flickering right in the intro, especially in 720p resolution
http://youtu.be/5n4V3lGEyG4
If you don't see it then it really might be my unit, and time to trade it in for a different NT unit.

Ya I guess I am spoiled by my SGS2's Exynos processor, but man i had high hopes for the OMAP4's flash video streaming capability.
Also as far as 2.2 vs 2.3, it is nice to have 2.3, hopefully that mean we can upgrade to flash player 11.1 really soon.
I'll check it out at home (no wifi at work and terrible reception).
I'll edit this post with my results.
Edit: Ok, i checked out both videos - watching first one was more painfull the the korean girls. On the first one I had tiny, barely noticable flicker, but I bet anything its cause of the format that video is in, probably NK's hardware is forced to do lots of work during playback.
No flicker at all on korean music video - plays better than on commercials!
Guys, don't worry
When we will have root, everything will be smooooooooooooth
Swishhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Love the atrix. bought the doc and its all high quality stuff..
issue: when i plug in the dock it seems like my monitors must be old or something because on my main 42" lcd, it can't display the correct resoluion, and on the other computer monitors it can only display the 'wrong' resolution meaning my 1920x1200 monitor can do the 720 tall, and the other 1080p monitor gets forced on the 768 tall res..
is there a way to set the resolution so it matches natively with one of our monitors resoluion standards? i plan on makin this phone my media center but its all outa wack on aspect ratio and blurry as hell due to the re-scaling. can't seem to find the resolution setup anywhere. when you first hook up a new monitor, it gives you the option (maybe 2 mabye 6 different res to choose from) but none of those work except the bad stretched out ones.. and hell yo ucan't get back to that screen ever again!
Nope. It really only works well with a big television or a really small LCD monitor. In which case, why not just get a PC? Im finding it difficult to use this dock for anything really. It isnt good at any single thing.

got a super cheat dynex 1080p tv that supports the phone webtop application perfectly. nice and clear. now my main issues are as follows:
1. upnp - mkv's wont play
2. hulu is a bit sluggish but does play smoothly when it gets moving.
3. samba working great but again, need way to play mkv's on android
4. netflix states that the browser version is not compatible! sucks.
works great for a back room media server and the cool factor is tops.
Convert the mkvs to WMVs. That seems to work the best for me and keeps original quality. I had to convert my 1920x1080 movies to 1920x1020 because the webtop seems to zoom every move on my plasma and I cant do anything about it. So by reducing the height of the video, it now fits perfectly on a 50 inch plasma.
For those of you with the device, at 299 now I think it's a great deal as I can't justify the 500-600 on a xoom, etc. With a custom rom on this baby, is it pretty smooth? What about internet surfing, is it smooth? Just wondering because my friend has a nook for example with CM7, and browsing the web isn't the greatest...but doable I guess.
Is this tablet pretty stable and relatively fast when clicking, launching, playing games, etc? I'm just trying to justify its purchase or waiting for like the HTC Flyer. Of course I'm sure that will be in the 500$ range as well...
As far as basic functionality (web browsing, gaming, etc) the tablet is great. You have a lot of choice regarding customization and hacking, the gTablet is probably one of the better tablets for experimentation and tinkering.
The biggest negatives is the screen, if you already have an iPad or IPS screen-type tablet the screen will probably be difficult to get over. If you can ignore the screen then you will have a difficult time finding a more capable tablet for $285.
Wait for an ASUS....$400 with IPS and Honeycomb

Yes, but neither of you will have a great picture.
My wife can "shoulder surf" when laying next to me, but some things she can't make out (pictures, etc).
Thanks.
Also it has mini HDMI out or whatever right? Can you output it to your television and watch a movie (mkv for example) from this device to your TV?
Does the web browser have decent pinch to zoom, as in, it's smooth and not choppy?

People are reporting that MKV runs choppily. I haven't tested MKV, but XviD works great, if you can bear the quality.
As for the cable, this thing uses a weird connection that is hard to find. Most vendors (read, in China) are selling a cable for $40, and a dock for around $50. If you're looking to connect this to a TV, look forward to tacking on an extra $50 for its asking price.

I am using Dolphin Browser HD, and I can comfortably say that it is almost as good as using a desktop browser, in terms of performance (Flash, web browsing, downloading files, etc.)
Agreed with the previous poster. I also use Dolphin HD, running on Vegan, and the browser is great. Pinch zoom is smooth and fast.
I've been lusting for an iPad for a while, but have never been able to justify the expense of a decent sized one (I refuse to get anything < 16GB). I was hoping that once the iPad2 was released that there would be more of the G1 version available (either as refurbs or used on ebay), but haven't found much luck finding one I was willing to pull the trigger on.
I've got an iPhone 3G (jailbroken, of course...) and tons of apps that i've downloaded, so I was familiar with the processes necessary to "root" an iOS device.
I must say that having little to no experience with Android (phones or otherwise) before getting this little beauty, I'm quite impressed. A coworker has the Xoom and aside from a slight size difference and the aforementioned screen visibility issues, my gtab holds it's own against his Xoom. Plus I have $300 more in my pocket then he does at the moment...
I'm running TnT Lite 4.40 on mine right now and it's as fast as I need it to be.
If you do get one, I recommend upgrading the ROM as the stock one is pretty crippled. DolphinHD is gorgeous and I'm a BIG fan on using Aldiko to read ebooks. I had previously been using Stanza on my iPhone and it's a world of a difference on this thing....
For some the screen is a deal breaker. If you've used another tab/reader with a better screen, then it may be for you also. I don't mind it so much as I haven't had much of a need for it be viewable at any extreme angle and it's kinda like a built in privacy filter so that nosy nellie's can't see what I'm doing on it unless i want them to.
The wife and daughter LOVE Angry Birds on it and I usually have to wrestle it away from one of them in order to use it.
With a little bit of elbow grease and willingness to experiment, this is a great tablet for the price...
We had our first "real" snowfall on friday night, so saturday the family went out sledding in our neighborhood. I grabbed the prime as i walked out to record some video. I took about 8 videos ranging from 15-60 seconds, 1080p, no settings changed.
I tried to play them today, and discovered only 2 of 8 videos had any sound. The rest were silent. Video quality was great, but i'm extremely disappointed by the lack of sound.
It's not the playback. I've tried them on the prime, over hdmi, and after transferred to another computer. theres just no audio. I've tried recording a few more videos and have not yet been able to reproduce it. The ONLY thing i can think of is that it was about 25 F outside, but it seems as though the first and last videos i recorded have sound, so i'm not real inclined to blame the temperature.
If you haven't done much video recording with your prime, i urge you to do some tests and see what you find.

I've recorded a few videos with Prime. ON CHRISTMAS of my daughter opening up her presents n stuff and of family. I haven't noticed what you said yet. The video quality was great and was very surprised at how well it picks up sound. It does have a good quality Mic. I initially recorded at 1080P till I realized that would be a waste really if most of my playback is on the prime itself. PRIME can output 1080p to HDMI but plays 720p perfectly on display. You can play a 1080p video on prime with no problem but it won't be true 1080p playback. PLUS 1080P videos take up too much space when recording. 720p looks great n takes up alot less space.
AS far as the issue you had, might of been a glitch or hiccup at that moment. LIKE you said, you haven't been able to reproduce the event. Where the videos that had no sound any longer or shorter than others?
thanks for the response. Point taken on 1080p...i have plenty of space on the prime, and all the larger displays in the house are 1080p so i figured why not. I didn't notice any size anomalies with the vids that had no audio.

I can't believe anyone would use a 10" tablet for taking video. I just use my smartphone...
JUST KIDDING! Seriously, I haven't noticed that issue either, but I haven't taken much video with mine. Let's hope it was just a temporary glitch. Hopefully the video is enough to have captured the moment--those come and go way too quickly.
My kids and I have taken many videos with both the front and back cameras. My kids love the video effects that came with the firmware update. I've not experienced any audio problems.
Are you kidding me? I have taken a lot of video on it and for a tablet, it take AWESOME videos. It handle low light better than cheapo camcorder out there. No sound problems at all.
OP --
Be sure (especially when outside with gloves on) that you're not covering the mic while you're holding it. I did that a few times with leather gloves and it pretty much muted the whole video.
Simple user error on my part, no fault of the tablet.
^^^
Were you taking video in portrait mode? The only way you could cover the mic the way you describe is in portrait mode since the mic is on the top of the device near the cameras. Maybe a snowflake fell on the mic.
I bought 3 notes on sunday, one for myself, my wife and my dad, so I noticed that gray banding and pixelation when playing certain videos. So I set all 3 phones to the same Vevo video (kanye west and jay z) and its a good video to try cause it has lots of black and gray,same brightness on all phones and everything else the same,,,,and bam both my wifes and dads phone it was non existent and mine was a disaster......I couldnt whip out the box and receipt fast enough. Gonna swap it for another and hopefully all will be ok.......I wouldnt have known unless I had those other phones to directly compare, so to all of you out there maybe you need to swap yours as well.....
Can you provide a source and name for the video?
Not sure I know what you mean by source, but I downloaded the Vevo app which plays music videos at High Quality and the vid "N***** in Paris" by Kanye/Jay -Z set to high quality, brightness set to 50 percent. You could see banding on the right side during the very first few seconds of the vid and then on the bottom along the main part.....the bottom of the screen became all pixelated with the very deep blacks on my phone and the 2 others next to mine were fine.....

He is seeing the same thing I've been seeing and trying to explain.
Here is my source go to veetle.com, and scroll down to a movie channel, one called movies 2012 or something like that. And make it full screen and watch carefully at the dark areas. It is definite banding but I think all the note displays will do this for now but the user is saying the other 2 phones arent doing this. I have a new one waiting for me tomorrow that I will compare this note with to see, hopefully the one I get tomorrow doesnt do this as thats the one I'm keeping for now.
Yep exactly, my wifes phone and dads werent doing it, my phone was atrocious, so I am gonna bring it back and exchange it. Luckily I had to to sit with and make sure all the setting were the same and play things at the same exact time.
That vevo app stinks for me though. Try watching the same video on youtube with hq selected, will probably look better. Yea for me looks much better on youtube, which vevo posted btw. I see minor banding and macroblocking but for a video that warns you about causing possible seizures lol thats minor stuff or expected on the display.
irregardless of where I watch it though why would my wifes phone and my dads look perfect under then same exact conditions on the same app?.....thats the reason why I am exchanging mine.
hey check this video i just made it i play the video you say but on browser on youtube desktop mode not mobile on 720 p http://youtu.be/gTxi_pOzNxA
plays like a charm for me vevo and youtube app plays the videos not so clear so test directly on browser using flash
I am thinking about returning mine after seeing u r post.

One or two settings must have been different.
Check the auto-power LCD settings, screen mode, power savings settings, etc.
While it's true that each screen is calibrated slightly different, the difference should not be so huge. I would imagine that the calibration is relatively identical across the screens or within a certain standard of error.
Also,l I would suggest you try and record all three in action to get a more objective view as I would imagine trying to simultaneously analyze 3 5.3" screens to be fairly difficult and might be subject to bias, etc.
DId you install other apps as well? Screen adjuster, etc?
The higher the base-brightness, the better the appearance of a temporary "band-aid" fix as it masks the problem by not having the phone attempt to render to lower black levels.
I think its the video. It's very pixelated. The more detail and shifting images on the screen per second, the more the compression is noticeable.
I would suggesting downloading a 720p video and test your screen then.
Absolutely everything about all 3 phones was exact....playing the same video....same screen settings....everything identical.....which is why I know my phone is having some problem with pixelation......at least until I exchange it tomorrow.....8)
There must be a newer codec or something on some of the phones. Heres my experience, Right at the begining scene where it says Kanye and the Jay, with people dancing in the letters on a black background.
1) Dolphin Browser-Declined to open in youtube, hit full screen within the embeded video. Put it up to 1080p, video studders and the black is greyish and to the right of the word JAY banding and bleeding.
2) Went to Vevo website(In dolphin), no way to pick video setting, same grey/banging and bleeding to the right.
3) Went to Vevo website in stock browser. Video choppy and froze phone.
4) Downloaded vevo app. Put on High quality still banding.
5)Loaded 1080p in native Youtube app, perfect Blacks and NO BANDING or BLEEDING!
Doesnt look that great on my 23"lcd either!
Whats the deal here guys? Sounds like the browers either have older codec that dont work so well with HQ video(they were studdering, lots of macroblocking) and th eYoutube app has newer ones as it plays silky smooth.
THough ive noticed with alot of the video on the web on this fone, maybe its because its mobile versions, the quality ranges dramatically. It may be that we have such a high res, the videos look worse than they would on most 800x400 android phones.
Most the videos have to be compressed anyway, even the video in the YT app had some slight macrobocking.
Now the one you returned, was the screen on the yellowish white and saturated red side? My whites are "warm" as opposed to "cool", save for some viewing angles. Turning up the brightness makes red too saturated, the mario brothers vs wright bros they look red/orange on full brighness, even on lowest still more than I would like.
I know every phone is diff. I had got a replacement Sayno and my whites went from cool to warm, same phone. Also, some people dont know how to shoot video, compress it or just have bad equipment or taste in editing.
hmm
How exactly did you load 1080P in the YouTube app? I must be missing something because my only options for that particular music video are HQ and nonHQ. Please share with an admitted Android noob.

Just download TubeMate from the Amazon app store. You can download and save any YouTube clip you want in the highest format possible. When I downloaded some 1980p and 720p videos I didn't notice any weird distortion etc.
I had a similar issue the other day, and after reading this thread I decided to load up the video I had the problem with. The video was the latest Game of Thrones season 2 trailer, it has alot of light and dark areas with alot of shades of gray moving around.
So two days ago the video was unwatchable, and now it looks fine. I wish I knew what was going on. I'm off to work now, tonight I will investigate further, play with some settings etc.
I downloaded the jay z kanye video using tubemate and it still showed blocking when watched in dark room.

1) Is it fast/smooth on ICS?
2) How is it as a Tablet? Desktop Sites? Flash? HTML5?
3) Battery under ICS?
4) Sound Quality? Loud? Muffled?
5) Gaming Performance? Emulators? Angry Birds Space? Temple Run?
6) Display Quality? Pixelated? Dark?
7) Build Quality? Cheap? Sturdy?
I dont have a 5.0, but i can answer that some people have reported it being a bit choppy on ics because theres not hardware acceleration yet. Jackpotclavin is working on porting the 3.0 kernel to it, which will enable hardware acceleration.
Out of the box the SGP 5 does not have ICS. You have to put the ICS ROM that is in development on it. This appears to be a work in progress.
I use it primarily as a small tablet and it is exceptional. It is just small enough to slip into a shirt pocket and you have you tablet with you. Flash is good. Websites are readable and interactive.
Sound quality is good but not very loud. There are two speakers with the main speaker on the back. If you put it in a folio case the sound is a bit muffled. A regular case or no case and the sound is fine. With the headphones the sound is loud and clear.
Gaming performance is good.
Build quality is very good. It is very sturdy and the display screen is resistant to scratches. There has been debate if the screen is Gorilla Glass - it likely is not but it is proving to be as durable.
Go into any Best Buy and play with one and you will see a lot of this for yourself - other than ICS related questions.

1.) Don't waste your time with ICS... Gingerbread is just fine for the time being. Putting yourself on an unstable OS is probably one of the worst things you can consider when buying a product. Unless your looking to be a tester of it, stick with Gingerbread until the bugs are knocked out.
2.) It's fantastic as a tablet. It also works as a VoIP phone if you have the right means/apps. I haven't had any trouble viewing websites on it; Flash is VERY smooth; HTML5 runs fine as far as I know.
3.) Battery life under Gingerbread is great, I can't give exact numbers, but it lasts all day for me with a lot of use. And even when it's low on battery, it stays low for a LONG time. I sat at 5%-10% for another 1hr 1/2 before.
4.) The sound quality with headphones is fine. Music sounds great. The speaker is actually REALLY good compared to an iPod Touch or equivalent device. As far as small device speakers go, they don't disappoint that much.
5.) Gaming performance is optimal in most areas. Emulators run great! Almost all games for N64oid run at full frames, Mario 64 is flawless and works great if you connect a PS3 Sixaxis controller via Bluetooth (on-screen controls are another option). All other emulators seem to work flawlessly (Note: I haven't tested a TON of games, but I've tested the most popular). Temple Run is laggy if you have too much running in the background, but works great if you free up some RAM. Angry Birds (anything) runs full speed. It can also display some pretty nice graphics if you use the Chainfire3d app with Tegra settings + MSAA 4x.
6.) For an 800 x 480 display resolution, it looks amazing. SUPER AMOLED/Blah blah blah is nice, but to be entirely honest, this screen looks great the way it is considering it's not an $800 unsubsidized smartphone (price is an estimate for smartphones off contract with that screen type). The 5.0inch screen realastate is also a nice plus, It's great for viewing Netflix, browsing the web, playing games, or just watching videos in general. Pinch and zoom is very fast, so browsing is easy regardless of the resolution not being extremely high.
7.) As far as build quality goes... it's a lot of plastic and a fake silver rim-- but it's solid and looks nice all-in-all. I can't count how many times I've dropped this and it's survived with only one small dent in the bottom right corner of the silver rim (out of like 20+ drops from waste height onto soft-ish floor/tile) I'd give survivability an 8/10 in most cases.

If you have any more questions feel free to ask! I've been an avid owner of this device since release and know almost every possible way to maximize the usability of it to match that of devices that are a little more powerful. The Galaxy player @ 1.5GHz is a beast to fear for the price range.
Well I've ordered one now, can't wait to see how great it is.
I have a 4.0 and a 5.0. I use the 4 for audio stuff like podcast and audio books and I use the 5 for all my video and ebook needs. I love them both and anything to avoid an "i" anything is fine in my book.
